U2 built one of rock music’s most recognizable catalogs, and their history on the U.S. singles chart reflects that staying power. Billboard’s Hot 100 records show the Irish band placed 34 songs on the chart, including six top 10 hits across several decades.
Their biggest successes came in 1987, when With or Without You and I Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For both reached No. 1. Those songs helped define The Joshua Tree era and remain among the group’s best-known recordings.
Other major chart performers included Desire, Mysterious Ways, One, Beautiful Day, Vertigo and Where the Streets Have No Name. Together, the songs trace U2’s evolution from 1980s rock breakout to an established global act with continued mainstream reach.
The band’s singles success also sits alongside a long record of No. 1 albums, strong performances on rock and alternative charts, and multiple Grammy Awards. Decades later, U2’s chart history remains a snapshot of how consistently the group connected with American listeners.
