Where The Streets Have No Name
June 1, 2007 | Filed Under music |
This is by far my favorite video of all time. If you are not familiar with this, it is a portion of the half time show at the 2002 Super Bowl four months after 911. Five years later it still brings a shiver up my spine and a lump to my throat.

Wow.
Well, I am weeping as I post this comment, Brad. Thanks for posting this, my friend.

U2 has always been my favorite band and music has always ministered to me in very meaningful and special ways - but this video with the names of those who lost their lives, Bono’s heart symbol, and his connection with the country through the flag display has the same effect on me as well.
Hey, Brad.
We were all so touched by this that we posted it over at Nameless with an anonymous Nameless, Faceless Love-esque tip of the hat to you :-).
We are hearing a tremendous response from those who have been able to see it. Thanks again for posting it, Brad.
It’s a blessing to be sharing the Journey with you, my friend, and to visit MCN and witness what is upon your heart.
