What is the Boss's best song?

Thunder Road

Atlantic City

Highway Patrolman

>Dancing in the Dark is a super popular song but it’s so good. It reminds of Star Trek the Next Generation both aesthetically because of the synths and on a deeper level because it’s so human the way Star Trek is able to be as well.
this is true. the m/v is such an ego trip for bruce but i still love it

Dude, if you've never heard Bruce before, you need to dig in.

Springsteen is the king of dadrock m8
Everything before Tunnel of Love is great

only heard born in the USA till now, but dancing in the dark was fucking amazing and now I want to know more

Born in the U.S.A. is a god tier album, but it's kind of unique in his catalog. It's the first album where he used synths. His older ones are just as good, but it's totally a matter of opinion whether you'll like them more or less than Born in the U.S.A. I would say, Born to Run; Darkness on the Edge of Town; and The Wild, the Innocent & the E Street Shuffle are some other major classics. Also Nebraska, his acoustic album, has a lot of fans too. Seriously his streak of albums in the 70's into the 80's is probably the best of any artist. He's up there with David Bowie easily.

That's good, but don't expect more dancy songs like Dancing in the Dark because that's as pop as he gets. All his other songs are more rockier or folkier and lyric oriented.

Tunnel of Love itself is way underrated I think, and has some of his best songs.

fugg, that song was giving me some happy feels

It's pretty much a perfect pop song. But he's also got stuff like "Thunder Road," which has no chorus at all, and was never released as a single, but is one of his most well known songs just on account of being that fucking good.

Buddy, you need to listen to all those albums I mentioned as soon as you get the chance. It's some of the best rock music ever recorded.

Im on fire

Kinda of annoyed I got Alex Cameron before I got into old brucey, anyone get any similar musician recs

yeah right after I listen to dancing in the dark a few thousand more times

I understand. It really is a perfect song. That album's got a few other real bangers like that too.

Ascended Bruce fans only listen to live tracks and studio outtakes

as someone with only a passing familiarity with either artist, Nick Cave and Bruce Springsteen feel to me like they're not worlds apart. It's kinda like Springsteen is the guy round the campfire telling inspirational anecdotes while Cave tells a ghost story

It's the most obvious answer but Born to Run is his best song, and one of the greatest songs ever made. It's just fucking perfect

Bobby Jean
A very heartfelt and introspective song that is also very understated.

My god all these people liking BitUSA Bruce, the songs are crap, they sould like they were written by a robot stuck in a loop. Now Rosalita or Jungleland, those are real songs. His folksy stuff is great too.

Brilliant Disguise

My personal favorite is "Does This Bus Stop at 82nd Street?"

Bruce Springsteen was the first industry plant.

Racing in the Street

You mean critic's darling, right?

Backstreets

E-Street Shuffle

How does a Jew "get" small town America so completely?

Cause he's a genuine all American boy

What'd you expect? Born in the USA era Bruce was genuine bangers and anthemic. Jungleland is good but your not dancing to it, you don't sing it, you only listen to it cause that's how its best appreciated.

This is extremely accurate

Every song in Nebraska and Ghost of Tom Joad.

This

Bros this was actually decent. In terms of lyrics the title track is his best song since probably the 80's.

I thought it was a bit cheesey
The music was perfectly suited for Glen Campbell, but it doesn't work as well for Bruce

For me, it's Brilliant Disguise

god i want a tele

>a quintuple live album

I'd expect nothing less from the Boss.

I think its fucking great. Sleepy Joes Cafe is a banger

Thunder Road on here is his best song/recording

I was gonna say On the Darkside but I realized that's not actually a Springsteen song

Now we post Bruce lyrics

>Last night I heard your voice
>You were crying, crying, you were so alone
>You said your love had never died
>You were waiting for me at home
>Put on my jacket, I ran through the woods
>I ran till I thought my chest would explode
>There in the clearing, beyond the highway
>In the moonlight, our wedding house shone
>I rushed through the yard, I burst through the front door
>My head pounding hard, up the stairs I climbed
>The room was dark, our bed was empty
>Then I heard that long whistle whine
>And I dropped to my knees, hung my head and cried

HAD A BROTHER AT KHE SANH
FIGHTING OFF THE VIETCONG
THEY'RE STILL THERE
HE'S ALL GONE

But I remember us riding in my brother’s car
Her body tan and wet down at the reservoir
At night on them banks I’d lie awake
And pull her close just to feel each breath she’d take
Now these memories come back to haunt me
They haunt me like a curse
Is a dream a lie if it don’t come true
Or is it something worse
That sends me down to the river
Though I know the river is dry

>Laying here in the dark
>You're like an angel on my chest
>Just another tramp of hearts
>Crying tears of faithlessness
>Remember all the movies, Terry
>We'd go see
>Trying to learn to walk like the heroes
>We thought we had to be

The River is a great song but I can't listen to it. Rips my heart out.

>those memories come back to haunt me
for some reason this line makes my spine tingle when I hear it
