Definitely numb.

"Don't move
Don't talk out of time
Don't think
Don't worry
Everything's just fine "


Worst advice everrrrrr... xD

I'd say that to get TUF down perfect is also hard to do.

I only know it well because Its one of my favorites.

No. To prove I'm not reading them and actually have them memorized.

Ok - of course you will need to show the inside of the blindfold before recording  ;)

Yeah, for some reason Numb didn't even enter my mind but that probably is the one.

The first song that popped into my mind was Breathe. The lyrics are all over the place, I think the pre-choruses are different, and its sung in a frantic manner. That being said, I've never really made an attempt to learn the lyrics, so it might not be that bad.

Definitely Numb. Every other U2 song I can pretty easily learn the lyrics fast, but that one I've given up hope of ever learning. Much like "It's The End of The World As We Know It."

Yeah, it probably has to be Numb... I can't think of another U2 song that's hard to learn at all, unless the words are incomprehensible or you hardly ever listen to it. I *have* managed to memorise Numb several times, but after a while I start to forget the later verses again, and there are so many instructions in quick succession that one mistake can totally throw you off.

Bad, with Bono's series of verbs?  :P

I agree that most U2 songs's lyrics come quite naturally to memory for fans like us. Man, even the list of names in Peace on Earth is sticking with me (I like that song, and can hear Bono 'sing' it in my head)

I'd probably say Numb just cause it's so repetitive....but really if you like any song enough you can learn it. At least, that what happened to me with just about all their songs :)
