BORN: September 23, 1949, Freehold, NJ "The Boss" hit the music industry with the release of his first album Greetings From Asbury Park, N.J., in 1973. The Wild, the Innocent, and The E Street Shuffle quickly followed this release. The albums received critical claim with comparisons to Bob Dylan, but did not sell well with the fans. Bruce Springsteen's career had begun. Springsteen was born in Freehold, New Jersey, on September 23, 1949. He grew up in a "normal middle class family" and first started playing around with the guitar in High School. After graduating from High School he moved to New York to try and break into the Folk Music scene. After getting nowhere on this front he returned to, be it reluctantly, to Asbury Park, N.J. and hooked up with a numbe More... (Submit New Bruce Springsteen Lyrics) (Submit New Bruce Springsteen Lyrics) Review about Bruce Springsteen the magical bruce | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song The River performed by Bruce Springsteen bruce's songs ( especially this one ) possess some strange power to take you where he wants, and make you experience what he wants..and no matter how many times you hear it, over and over again, every time you can feel something special.. and there are no words to describe that feeling.. Jersey | Reviewer: NY Boy ------ About the song Jersey Girl performed by Bruce Springsteen I've known some Jersey girls in my day & hearing this song makes me think about them every time. I don't know what album it was on & only heard it once or twice on the radio back in the day. But I knew I had to have it and after some digging, I have the live version off one of the concert albums. It's a top 25 in my iPhone. Wings for Wheels | Reviewer: Dave ------ About the song Wings For Wheels (Thunder Road) performed by Bruce Springsteen These lyrics are from Thunder Road. The song was originally titled Wings for Wheels and the lyrics are somewhat different. As a matter of fact the words "thunder road" are nowhere in the original song. Bruce sang either "oh dance all the way" or "come take my hand" in the parts that became "oh thunder road" Danny Federici at his best | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song 4th Of July, Asbury Park (Sandy) performed by Bruce Springsteen There is a reason the late Danny F. Wanted this to be the last song he ever played with Bruce. It's because as he died he wanted to take one last stroll down that Jersey shore boardwalk with Bruce by his side. Two best friends singing about those innovent times amd innovent love. This is a very special song. Greatest of all time! | Reviewer: MonkanStonkan ------ About the song Thunder Road performed by Bruce Springsteen The road down Lifelane in your pre-twenty's or somwhere around. That's what I feel and that's how I choose to listen to Mr. Springsteen's music. As you all say (or as I interpret your comments) he's the greatest all time songwriter and performer through all times. long lasting marriage | Reviewer: Donna ------ About the song If I Should Fall Behind performed by Bruce Springsteen We'll be married for almost 16 years, and my husband and I have been through the early death of my parents, cancer, miscarriages, job loss and financial ruin, and still we remain togther - in love - with three beautiful children, careers rebuilt...finances on the mend. As usual Springsteen captures the heart and soul of the issue - fairytales and childhood fantasies are not what long lasting marriages are about. The happy-ever-after message in children's stories are nice but this song tells of the true message of what people need to believe in when they say their vows. Even without struggles, two people can go through different phases and each must respect each other's journey. Thank you Bruce! What a song! | Reviewer: Dharmacate ------ About the song Jersey Girl performed by Bruce Springsteen I'm just back from a trip down the shore - Long Branch, Red Bank, Little Silver, Deal, Ocean Grove, Seabright and Asbury Park. While it isn't the place of the 60s and 70s carousels and Madame Marie, it still holds the charm and this song fills me with the memories of how it was . . . Could almost hear it echoing at the Convention Hall and The Stone Pony . . . simply wonderful | Reviewer: mehdi ------ About the song Mrs. McGrath performed by Bruce Springsteen i didn't know Mr Springsteen was such a "humane" artist. i really loved "Mrs.Grath" for it uncovers the terrible end American troops happen to face at the end of each single war the stubborn officials take them to. Very heartfelt | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Streets Of Philadelphia performed by Bruce Springsteen Aint no angel gonna greet me.... My gosh...the pain....the emptiness....the loneliness Our fathers are our models for god, if our fathers bailed, what does that tell us about god This song always brings a few tears to mine eyes TEARS FOR 4th of July Asbury Park (Sandy) | Reviewer: Renee ------ About the song 4th Of July, Asbury Park (Sandy) performed by Bruce Springsteen I agree with Susan, the reviewer who writes that the song "4th of July Asbury Park (Sandy)"brings her to tears. Well I am much younger and it is good to know that I am not the only who sobs intensely when I hear it. Today I played it for 12 hours straight and needless to say I am worn out from weeping. I think it is the combination of the lyrics, the melody and the instrumentations especially the piano and strings...and last but not least the longing in that beautiful voice...He truly is THE BOSS! The Boss at Best | Reviewer: Chris ------ About the song 4th Of July, Asbury Park (Sandy) performed by Bruce Springsteen Unlike the review above, I am much younger but love Bruce just as much. By the way, his rehearsal concert at convention hall last month was and always will be the best concert I have ever witnessed. This song is my favorite, I love the melody, lyrics, and the singer. love this song | Reviewer: jean turek ------ About the song Spirit In The Night performed by Bruce Springsteen The first time I ever heard this song was in 1975 or 76 at the grantite Mall in Lima Pa. I didn't even know who Bruce was and then after hearing him, I was hooked for life. He is a Great Artist, one of a kind. Dreams are torn | Reviewer: carl ------ About the song Racing In The Street performed by Bruce Springsteen As small comment of Simon's otherwise great review. I get the feeling that shares a theme from "the river" of dreams shattered by a reality that was not expected. When the street racer comes home "the house is dark", "all the pretty dreams are torn" and "there are wrinkles around her eyes". A hint of a torn relationship between the two because of two different lives. But there is the possibility of a redemption at the end by them "washing the sins of there backs...". Please correct these lyrics | Reviewer: Ted ------ About the song Stolen Car performed by Bruce Springsteen Hello there. Please see below the corrected lyrics for this song: I met a little girl and I settled down In a little house out on the edge of town We got married, and swore we'd never part Then little by little we drifted from each other's heart At first I thought it was just restlessness That would fade as time went by and our love grew deep In the end it was something more I guess That tore us apart and made us weep And I'm driving a stolen car Down on Eldridge Avenue Each night I wait to get caught But I never do She asked if I remembered the letters I wrote When our love was young and bold She said last night she read those letters And they made her feel one hundred years old There's a river that runs by that little town down into the sea It was there in the shade I laid my body down as she flowed on so effortlessly Now there's a party tonight out off the county line, there be dancing down at seven trees From these banks I can see those party lights shine, maby she's there maby she's looking for me Last night I dreamed I made the call I swore to return to stay forever more once again we stood on the wedding steps at whipre hall and walked on and on through the chapel door I can remember how good I felt inside when the preacher said "Son you may kiss the bride But as I leaned over to touch her pretty lips I felt it all slip away through my fingertips And I'm driving a stolen car through a pitt's black night I keep telling myself everything is gonna be alright But I ride by night and I travel in fear no matter what I do, or wher I drive Nobody sees me when I ride by all songs | Reviewer: Danieil O'Donnell ------ About the album Working On A Dream performed by Bruce Springsteen Bruce has shown that he can adapt to all new on old versions of genre that are presented to him. From GOOD EYE which is a great southern blusey tune to the 60's style WHAT LOVE CAN DO and the country tune THIS LIFE. Great album. I went to a concert at a small college in South Jersey back in 1974 and he and the E street band put on a show for (4) hours plus and he then and still proves that he is genuine with his passion to put out great music. I've been in Hawaii for the past (30) years and still enjoy listening to Bruce to remind me of growing up in Jersey wasn't all that bad. I'm proud to tell friends and people whom I don't know that The BOSS is from Jersey as well! Our Abyssinian Cat Named Rosalita | Reviewer: daveinboca ------ About the song Rosalita performed by Bruce Springsteen About 25 years ago, my wife & I bought an Abyssinian cat from a cattery in McLean, VA, sired by Spartacus and spayed because she was TOO STUCK UP to be exhibited at cat shows with mere mortals. We named her Rosalita originally because she disappeared for a week in our apartment, but reappeared while the song was playing on the FM radio! A writer named Christopher Hitchens used to drink at our house and would stare at Rosalita for a half-hour at a time and pronounce her "the most beautiful creature I have ever seen." But Rosalita was much much more, a bird-catcher & leaper of phenomenal skills---she would jump off our third-story outdoor porch to the ground unharmed and then evade capture in skunk/cat/possum traps for weeks at a time, stealing the bait, but avoiding the trapdoor. She ran out of her nine lives about twenty-plus later when she chased a bird into heavy traffic and paid dearly for the mistake....! We still have the pictures and every time I hear the song, I see Rosalita making twelve foot standing leaps UP to our window sill to get into the house with a bird in her mouth---she was an Olympian in the cat world...! great job bruce | Reviewer: kunal ------ About the song Human Touch performed by Bruce Springsteen you got magic in your voice bruce , you are really a amazing singer of hard rock , i had seen this video when i was in college 10 years back and its bring my old days back carry on bruce my blessing are always with you , life narrated through music | Reviewer: Dana ------ About the song Cautious Man performed by Bruce Springsteen Springsteens' greatness can be found in the intimate narratives of his less popular songs that are often not his commercial hits. In "Cautious Man", Springsteen tells the story of man who has found love but remains tormented with doubt, hoping he can live with both. The Album, Tunnel of Love (1987) is among his best and perhaps his most personal. pissed off Canadian hates Americans | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Devils & Dust performed by Bruce Springsteen From RollingStone.com: The inspiration for reviving the solo material, Springsteen says, was a new song, "Devils and Dust," that he wrote in 2003 at the start of the Iraq War. ("I've got my finger on the trigger/But I don't know who to trust," it begins.) "It is basically a song about a soldier's point of view in Iraq," Springsteen says. "But it kind of opens up to a lot of other interpretations." Springsteen tried recording the title track as both an angry rock song and an acoustic ballad Posted on Tue, Apr. 05, 2005 Associated Press ...Springsteen launched the program with "Devils and Dust," the title track to his new disc, which is to be released Apr 26. He said the song was written when U.S. troops entered Iraq, and deals with the struggle between the personal and the political. "What if we do destroy our ideals?" he asked. Glad there are some decent Americans out there like Springsteen... Truly Inspirational | Reviewer: Esther ------ About the song Eyes On The Prize performed by Bruce Springsteen I found the lyrics to be truly inspiring and uplifting. The music as well was lively. I could not listen to this song and remained downcast or depressed for it would truly lift my spirits. Thank you Bruce Springsteen!!
