Oh my god, my heart hurts just hearing this.
Yeah, I had a friend who was always raving about "The Boss". It kind of turned me off to Springsteen's music.
Sometimes my brain does dumb things.
Xander ,'Get It Done'
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

Oh, and thanks, Hec and Amy.
Oh, and thanks, Hec and Amy.
De nada!
I'd suggest checking out these songs on YouTube and seeing which ones click for you. Then you might know what album to get.
Brooooooooooooooce.
To me, his early work represents the New Jersey I grew up in that I wanted to escape from.
So, what you're saying is, you were bor... oh, never mind.
So I downloaded Nebraska, Born to Run and Greetings From Asbury Park. Have listened to the first two and liked them. (I'm at work, and I have a feeling once I really get to listen to the lyrics of Nebraska I'll like that one even more.)
Listening to Greetings From Asbury Park now. So far I'm loving "Blinded by the Light" (I've never heard the original before).
I am really liking The newest Bruce CD, Wrecking Ball. Strong, passionate writing and some cool Celtic music influences.
Just for chuckles, here's Bowie covering Bruce's It's Hard to be a Saint In the City>.
Not that surprising, considering how influenced they both were by Dylan.
orn in the USA was his biggest hit, but the only song I want to listen to from that era is the B-side "Pink Cadillac" (a hit for the Pointer Sisters).
I'd always associated that song with the Natalie Cole version.
You're right, bt, that's the one I'm thinking of.
