Song Title	Where the Streets Have No Names
Group/Artist Name	U2
Song Meaning	The meaning of this song is quite obvious to those of us living north of Los Angeles. To begin, the title of the album in which the song is found is titled "Joshua Tree." This is an obvious reference to the Mojave Desert where the Joshua Tree is indigenous. In the Mojave Desert there is a valley named Antelope Valley. This valley is located "high on a desert plain," because the Antelope Valley is located in the "high desert," The high desert experiences torrid summers and freezing winters. It is a place where I can almost always "feel the sunlight on my face." because it is almost always cloud free and sunny even when freezing. This godforsaken place is extremely windy and dusty and you can see a "dust cloud disappear without a trace." It is ALWAYS so windy that you would feel that "We're beaten and blown by the wind, Trampled in dust." This valley is extremely flat, and even though it is a lousy place to live the land is cheap so there is a huge amount of homebuilding always happening. So again "We're still building," fits perfectly. The flatness of course does nothing to stop the constant wind. Moreover, because of the flatness, when it does rain the water has nowhere to go and "The city's a flood," as the streets flood immediately whenever there is rain. Oh, and as to the names, or rather the lack of names of the streets, when the streets were originally laid out the streets that run east and west are named "A Street," "B Street," "C Street," and so on. Every tenth of a mile a street picks up a number like "A-3 Street." No kidding, you can look all this up on Google maps. The streets that run north and south are named by numbers, so the street names read like "45th Street East. Thus it's a place were "The Streets Have No Name." Q.E.D (The first test flights of the famous spy plane, the "U2" took place at Edwards Air Firce Base located in the Antelope Valley.)

Song Title	While My Guitar Gently Weeps
Group/Artist Name	The Beatles
Song Meaning	George Harrison was reading the 'I Ching', the Chinese book of changes, and decided to apply its principles of chance to his songwriting. At his parents' Lancashire home, he picked a novel off the shelf with the intention of writing a song based on the first words that he came across. The words were 'gently weeps' and so George began to write. script46.com/b.js>

Song Title	wish you were here
Group/Artist Name	pink floyd
Song Meaning	although most believe it to be a generic love song, it is truly about the long lost original band member and creator syd barett, who toured and wrote with them for the original duration of their existence, but went through a harsh downfall due to drugs. at the peak of his problems he would be at a performance and literally stand at the microphone with a blank stare, singing nothing and doing nothing other than standing frozen. the song is about them missing their old friend and wishing he were mentally there.
