Why Yard Act abandoned the U2-roadie concept for ‘Where’s My Utopia?’
Yard Act’s second album began with a touring roadie and his abandoned son. James Smith eventually realised the story was asking him to confront his own life instead.

About This Track
'Stateless' by U2 is a 2000 track from the album 'The Million Dollar Hotel (Music From The Motion Picture)'. The lyrics sketch a bleak, rootless state of being, returning to the refrain that the speaker has “no home in this world”. Home is replaced by impersonal forces, and a love that feels unresolved, with the idea of colour and sunshine drained away. The song also frames identity in stark terms, collapsing distinctions into a harsh, prize-like logic, before the excerpt cuts off mid-thought.
"Stateless" is a track by U2, from the album The Million Dollar Hotel (Music From The Motion Picture), released 13th March 2000. Full lyrics are available below.
