Speaking of U2, this thread/discussion above has made me wander back through those years. I’m on Apple Music so it’s easy to listen to whatever, whenever I want.
I’ve forgotten what an amazing, listenable album “The Joshua Tree” was. And “Running to Stand Still” is still one of the most beautiful, heartbreaking songs I’ve ever heard. I kinda gasped the other night, listening to it for the first time again in decades. Such a picture painted…I think I’ve known that woman he’s singing about. One comes to mind, all these years later, still.
There’s music for you. Unlocks a little door you’d forgotten all about, and then hits you over the head with a shovel for an encore. Wasn’t quite prepared for a whole bunch of memories to come racing back like that, just listening to a song.
