Songs For The Road: U2's Where The Steets Have No Name
No need for background info here folks. Joshua Tree album, Track 1.

Growing up my mom was a huge fan of U2 and she made sure we listened to the Joshua Tree tape while driving all over Europe with my father; Poland, Germany, Switzerland, Austria, Italy...the list went on and on just like the countless winding streets our 1980-something Volkswagen rabbit took us. This song reminds me of that time and all the fun we had but I could never (and will never) be able to remember the names of those streets. Now, whenever I find myself in a new city or a new town this song comes to mind instantly, almost instinctively.
