U2

In June 2001, U2 performed 'Stay (Faraway, So Close!)' live from the FleetCenter in Boston, a standout moment that showcased their powerful connection with the audience. It came during their 'Elevation Tour,' which was in support of the album 'All That You Can't Leave Behind.' Released in 2000, this album marked a significant comeback for the band, presenting a more introspective and personal sound. It's fascinating that this live performance, part of the 'Elevation Live From Boston' release, captures the band's evolution while celebrating the 20th anniversary of the album. Fans often regard 'All That You Can't Leave Behind' as a pivotal release that returned U2 to their roots, intertwining introspective lyrics and anthemic melodies. That sense of nostalgia really comes alive in the live recording, making it a special piece in the band's extensive legacy.
