  The Complete U2 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Complete U2 is a "digital box set" by U2, released exclusively online in the iTunes Music Store on November 23, 2004 (see 2004 in music).
It contains the complete set of U2 albums, extras extending the total to 446 songs--singles, live, rare and previously unreleased material--from 1978 to 2004.
U2 Love: Live from the Point Depot is the first official release of the band's widely bootlegged New Year's Eve show at Dublin's Point Depot in 1989.

 U2 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
U2 recorded the Under a Blood Red Sky EP on this tour and a live video was also released, both of which received radio and MTV play and helped expand the band's audience.
U2 also participated in the Live Aid concert at Wembley Stadium for Ethiopian famine relief in July 1985, which was seen by more than a billion people worldwide.
U2 were not expected to be one of the main draws for the event, but the band provided the show with one of its most memorable moments, a relentless 13-minute version of "Bad" in which Bono hurdled off the stage to dance with a fan.

 U2   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
U2 began their musical career at school in Dublin in 1977.
Given their power in concert, it was inevitable that U2 would attempt to capture their essence on a live album.
By the summer of 1984, U2 were about to enter the vanguard of the rock elite.

 Playlist: The Complete U2: The World’s First Digital Box Set
When you visit the iTunes Music Store to explore The Complete U2, it appears just like any other album — you can browse to it or search for it, and when you find it, its songs are listed in the main iTunes window.
So apart from the rare person who has never owned a U2 album and suddenly decides to buy everything they’ve ever done, I’m probably a good example of the target market for The Complete U2 — someone who likes the band enough to be willing to buy all of their stuff at an affordable price.
Apple and U2 plug the The Complete U2 as an exhaustive retrospective of the band’s career, and it’s hard to argue with that claim.

 Eddie on...
But I was a little suspicious about The Complete U2, since it was advertised as having more than 400 songs - 25 of which would be rare and unreleased tracks.
There are also three complete live shows included:a March 1981 club show in Boston; the final Love Town concert in Dublin on Dec. 31, 1989, before they went away and "dream(ed) it all up again;" and a Popmart concert from Mexico City in December 1997.
All in all, "The Complete U2" is not 100 percent complete.

Then again, it was a little bit unfair to allow the book to fall into the hands of a group of u2 fanatics, myself included.

More expect of u2, which is probably why the would choose to use Vertigo to try and be different, or atleast somewhat different.
This song is imo about gun control, like they've decided they want bullet the blue sky to be about now, it kinda feels like a soft version of bullet the blue sky to me, which is probably why they canned it.
As dragonflyeyes said, this the early version of "Vertigo", before U2 and their producer decided to change the song to make it more "radio friendly", in a way.
