It is the second track from their 1987 album The Joshua Tree and was released as the album's second single in May 1987 . The song was a hit, becoming the band's second consecutive number - one single on the US Billboard Hot 100 while peaking at number six on the UK Singles Chart . </P> <P> The song originated from a demo the band recorded on which drummer Larry Mullen Jr. played a unique rhythm pattern . Like much of The Joshua Tree, the song was inspired by the group's interest in American music . "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For" exhibits influences from gospel music and its lyrics describe spiritual yearning . Lead singer Bono's vocals are in high register and lead guitarist the Edge plays a chiming arpeggio . Adding to the gospel qualities of the song are choir - like backing vocals provided by the Edge and producers Brian Eno and Daniel Lanois . </P>
