[Music] Favourite Springsteen song

[Sid and the Sharknados]

I can confirm I have seen less water in the ocean than is currently in my shoe.

I've just been told he may be the wettest he's ever been.

I'm pretty sure I've seen him swimming in the sea at least once.

 

[Dr Q]

way too many to mention and it changes depending on what album I'm listening tp, but honourable mentions to:

The Rising
Racing in the Street
Thunder Road
Darlington County
The Power of Prayer

Will seeing Bruce at Wembley again in July, gig #13 (!)

This is going to sound really sad, but for every exam or job interview going back to my O Levels, and including degree, masters as well as PhD viva, I've always played the same three Springsteen songs beforehand: Darlington County, Working on the Highway and Downbound train. Superstitious, me never!!

 

[Brian Fantana]

I'm at the point where I'm not sure it is actually possible to get any wetter.

 

[Binney on acid]

Dozens of 'em. To refer to this guy merely as a genius, is tantamount to insulting him. 'Worlds apart' is my current favourite, but that could change any at minute.

 

[Psychobilly freakout]

none, the bloke can barely keep a note, sounds like badly tuned Vespa

 

[The Clamp]

Darkness on The Edge of Town (also my favourite album)

And

Candy’s Room.

 

[Robinjakarta]

For the late, great Clarence Clemons RIP

 

[Hamilton]

So many, but if I had to pick one then it would be Glory Days.

He is simply amazing live.

Billy Bragg tuned me into him.

 

[Herr Tubthumper]

This is a more recent song. Quite heartbreaking subject matter as well.

Downbound Train is a lovely song.

 

[Withdean and I]

I’m a fully paid up member of Bruce’s church of rock n’ roll. Saw him in Cardiff a few weeks ago and going again to Wembley in July which will be the 8th time I’ve seen him. Loved him since the mid 80’s but only saw him live for the first time in 2009 at Hyde Park and I was changed by that show. Never seen anything like it. Incredible! Impossible to choose only three tracks as it changes like the weather but at the moment I’d go…..

1. Tenth Avenue Freeze Out
2. American Land
3. Bobby Jean

 

[Uncle Spielberg]

Jungleland

 

[Swiss perfection]

Saw him in Zurich last year, just done Cardiff and off to Marseille tomorrow
Youngstown
No surrender
The Rising

I'm also seeing him at Wembley in July !

Too many to choose one

Racing in the Street
My Hometown
Dancing in the Dark
The River
Atlantic City
My Beautiful Reward

 

[Seagull over Canaryland]

Was also at the Stadium of Light last night - it was tad damp.... Bruce opened with 'Waiting on a Sunny Day'...

So many to choose from - but these aren't too shabby:

Promised Land
Racing in the Street
The River

I don't like his tunes BUT I love Philadelphia which is an amazing song. interestingly all of the above posters that love him haven't listed that track so its obviously not his usual style.

I like the man a lot more having read he loathes Trump.

any suggestions of tracks like Philadelphia I can listen to without wading through the redneck rock stuff?

 

[dejavuatbtn]

Girls in their summer clothes.

 

[227 BHA]

The River
Jungleland
Streets of Philadelphia
…..and about 50 others on a continuous alternating loop

Er, I posted it, see post #26.

Just seen this - I listed Streets of Philadelphia (which is the actual title) along with Jungleland and the river specifically because they are all so different songs and eras
