One Takes It for UK Sisters, Brothers

18 Apr 2006
A line from One is the UK's favourite song lyric, acording to a poll conducted by music channel VH1. "One life, with each other, sisters, brothers" topped a poll of 13,000 people by music channel VH1 - holding off memorable lines from The Smiths, Nirvana, Bob Marley and Coldplay.

But are the lyrics to One the finest in U2's catalogue ? Or do you have a different view ? Check out Zootopia, U2. Com's 24/7 fan forum, to add your views to the discussion.

Meantime, here's the top five lyrics in the VH1 poll.

1. U2 - One. "One life, with each other, sisters, brothers."
2. The Smiths - How Soon is Now? "So you go, and you stand on your own, and you leave on your own, and you go home, and you cry, and you want
to die."
3. Nirvana - Smells Like Teen Spirit. "I feel stupid and contagious, here we are now, entertain us."
4. Bob Marley - Redemption Song. "Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery, none but ourselves can free our minds, have no fear for atomic energy, 'cause none of them can stop the time."
5. Coldplay - Yellow. "Look at the stars, look how they shine for you."
