“Where The Streets Have No Name” opening — piano reduction arranged by me; transcribed from The Joshua Tree recording via dictation
I do not want to talk about how late I stayed up dictating the Streets opening ! ! I believe it has been described as a “wall of sound” which makes sense, as all these individual pitches blend together so seamlessly in the recording it really does just sound like one all-encompassing Noise. This is a great thing in my eyes, as it further proves the point of the Roman numeral analysis I’m working on. Of course, the actual chord progression happening here works to obscure the song’s home key, which ties in with the whole album’s discussion of place and belonging. BUT the voice leading and organization of pitches, the adding and omitting of certain pitches, etc. also play a huge role in the emotional appeal of these chords—individual pitches, too, are obscured. UGH I love it! It made the process of picking out notes one by one and putting them onto a piece of sheet music all the more thrilling.
Consider this a sneak peak of the aforementioned Roman numeral analysis. I wanted to be sure I provide an audio reference of the transcription I’ll be using to analyze Streets, but didn’t want you all to suffer through the crispy MuseScore MIDI piano audio. Besides, I think much of this particular song’s emotional impact comes from the interaction between person and instrument. So, I recorded myself playing it.
I’ve got a few more things to put into MuseScore and some evidence to gather from an essay on TJT, and then I’ll be putting my analysis together!
I should mention: piano is NOT my primary instrument, so if there are any piano primaries watching this, I apologize, haha.

Release: March 11, 1991
Lyrics:
I want to run
I want to hide
I want to break down the walls
That hold me inside
I want to reach out
And touch the flame
Where the streets have no name
I want to feel
The sun on my face
I see the dust cloud disappear
Without a trace
I want to take shelter
From poisoned rain
Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name
We′re still building
Then burning down love
Burning down love
And when I go there
I go there with you
Where the streets have no name
I can't take my eyes off of you
I love you baby
And if it′s quite all right
I need you baby
To warm my lonely nights
So let me love you baby
Let me love you
The city's a flood
Our love turns to rust
We're beaten and blown by the wind
Trampled in dust
I′ll show you a place
High on a desert plain
Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name
We′re still building
Then burning down love
Burning down love
And when I go there
It's all I can do
Where the streets have no name
I can′t take my eyes off of you
Songwriter:
Love you baby
Let me love you
Where the streets have no name
Adam Clayton, David Evans, Bob Crewe, Bob Gaudio, Larry Mullen, Paul Hewson

Desperately need to find U2 fan mutuals!!!!!
I feel like no on my age (20) likes U2 and I get so sad thinking about how I have no one to talk about it with.
If there are any rare gems out there who like U2 hit my line.
I also have hella U2 street cred if that’s an incentive.

Love as we know it (a thread):
I think my love for tragedies is because of their lack of containment and disappearing moments. The feeling that whatever i am feeling is for the very first and last time acknowledging the fact that I won't ever feel like this ever again for anyone in any circumstances. Whatever i have felt, experienced for the first time will always be a sacred memory which i will preserve. The very belief that whatever happens in the future, I will always reminisce the feeling of warmth I felt on the very first day. That's what tragedy is, it's the mother of beauty. Whatever we find tragic we try to make it last forever.
