The official music video for Where The Streets Have No Name by U2.
An afternoon rooftop show above the Republic liquor store at 7th and Main was shut down by police as a result of the huge crowds that descended on downtown Los Angeles to see the band perform the opening track from The Joshua Tree album in March 1987 for this video by Meiert Avis.
I wanna run, I want to hide
I wanna tear down the walls
That hold me inside.
I wanna reach out
And touch the flame
Where the streets have no name.
I wanna feel sunlight on my face.
I see the dust-cloud
Disappear without a trace.
I wanna take shelter
From the poison rain
Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name.
Were still building and burning down love
Burning down love.
And when I go there
I go there with you
(Its all I can do).
The citys a flood, and our love turns to rust.
Were beaten and blown by the wind
Trampled in dust.
Ill 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.
Were still building and burning down love
Burning down love.
And when I go there
I go there with you
(Its all I can do).
Original video of Edwin Starr singing his famous song: «War» [Original Music video from 1969]
Originally written under the Motown label, and first performed by The Temptations, «War» was later re-released as a single with Edwin Starr as vocals. This version is considered a more emotional version and has become the most popular protest song ever.
Lyrics:
War, huh yeah
What is it good for?
Absolutely nothing, oh hoh, oh
War huh yeah
What is it good for?
Absolutely nothing, say it again yall
War, huh good God
What is it good for?
Absolutely nothing, listen to me
Oh, war, I despise
Cause it means destruction of innocent lives
War means tears to thousands of mothers eyes
When their sons go off to fight and lose their lives
I said
War, huh good God yall
What is it good for?
Absolutely nothing, just say it again
War whoa Lord
What is it good for?
Absolutely nothing, listen to me
War, it aint nothin but a heartbreaker
War, friend only to the undertaker
Oh war, is an enemy to all mankind
The thought of war blows my mind
War has caused unrest within the younger generation
Induction, then destruction who wants to die
War, good God, yall
What is it good for?
Absolutely nothing, say it, say it, say it
War, uh huh, yeah, huh
What is it good for?
Absolutely nothing, listen to me
War, it aint nothin but a heartbreaker
War, its got one friend thats the undertaker
Oh, war has shattered many young mans dreams
Made him disabled bitter and mean
Life is much to short and precious to spend fighting wars these days
War cant give life it can only take it away, ooh
War, huh, good God yall
What is it good for?
Absolutely nothing, say it again
War, whoa, Lord
What is it good for?
Absolutely nothing, listen to me
War, it aint nothin but a heartbreaker
War, friend only to the undertaker
Peace love and understanding tell me
Is there no place for them today
They say we must fight to keep our freedom
But Lord knows theres got to be a better way
War, huh, good God yall
What is it good for?
You tell em, say it, say it, say it, say it
War, good Lord, huh
What is it good for?
Stand up and shout it, nothing
War, it aint nothin but a heartbreaker
As part of 60s group The Animals, Eric Burdon sang lead on the #1 hit «The House Of The Rising Sun» and thirteen other Top 40 tunes. In 1970, he left the Animals and recorded «Spill The Wine» with War, a Latin band from Long Beach, CA who backed him until 1971. Producer Jerry Goldstein had seen the band at a gig in Hollywood and became enamored of their distinctive sound. The original members were Howard Scott, Lee Oskar, Lonnie Jordon, Charles Miller, Thomas Allen, Morris Dickerson and Harold Brown and all shared lead vocals. After the success of «Spill The Wine», Eric left and the band soldiered on to spread their message of brotherhood and harmony and spoke out against social inequalities and gangs. «Slippin Into Darkness» was issued in 1973 and became a #16 hit and then «The World Is A Ghetto» peaked at #7 in early 1973. «The Cisco Kid» single peaked at #2 for two weeks, becoming their most popular single ever. «Why Cant We Be Friends» LP was issued in 1975 and held two top 10 singles, the title track and second single «Low Rider» both peaked at #7, but then «Low Rider» did one better by taking the #1 spot on the R
