(RARE) U2 - Where the Streets Have No Name Live

[s96822]

I have listened to this version for years. Great intro chilling mesmerizing tribute to the Irish poet, Lovely video editing and emotion.

And in the world a heart of darkness

A fire zone

Where poets speak their heart

Then bleed for it

Seems, ah, Samuel Beckett died on Friday. Ah, its kinda sad that he never made it home. Such a long time. But he dreamt of other roadsin other landsand of another home. So I sing this for Sam. His voice to me was like a stream Scarce heard; nor word from word could I divide The whole body of the man did seem Like one whom I have met in a dream Sam Beckett dreamt of other roads Sam beckett dreamt of other lands Of another home, of another home Where the streets have no name Take me Take me

D'oh! I'm a dummy. I just watched it again, and it says right at the beginning when it was performed. Never mind me...

[gaugeinvariant]

This has been my favorite U2 song since the day I heard it over 20 years ago. This is a great rendition. When was it performed?

[wgaule]

I hate Bono. Hate him. But I love Samuel Beckett, and the drumming in this track is excellent, so it's hard not to like this video.

Conflicted.

[TheGreatGizzo]
