Lyrics and the like

So One by U2 won the best lyric of all time on a VH1 poll........

They have better lyrics but I do think it is one of their top tunes. All I want is you, is my favourite U2 tune, its up there in the top two slow songs of all time, not neccesarily for the lyrics but for the guitar rift about three quarters the way through. One, as a slow number has a much higher calibre then the often hyped-thanks to that episode of Friends- With or Without you.
Examples of U2 songs with great lyrics:

Whose gonna ride your wild horses
Sunday Bloody Sunday
Kite
Walk On
Beautiful Day
Pride

I think polls like these depend purely on timing, if U2 hadn't have collaborated with Mary J Blige to re-release One I don't think it would be on the top of peoples tongues.

One song I highly rate if you want to be inspired to be good at what you do, or just to do a little better is the Kiddy fiddler himself's song, R Kelly's "World's greatest", puts you in a great mood everytime.......I'm that little ray of hope........


Don't get me started on Coldplay being number 5 in the top lyrics poll with the ever vague "Yellow".......
