Background
When Urban first heard the demo of "Street Called Main", he loved it "right out of the gate," especially for the melody and lyrics. He viewed the song as conveying the idea that "some memories are triggered by the simplest of things, like finding yourself anywhere in the world - even on a 'street called main' - and suddenly 'she' comes flooding back. Urban described the song as "pure ‘open road with the windows down’ nostalgia that just makes you feel good." He recorded the track in Nashville, Tennessee with longtime co-producer Dann Huff.The single art that features Urban holding a boombox over his head is a tribute to a scene from the 1989 film Say Anything....
