everything dies, baby thats a fact, but nearly everything that dies one day comes back, but your make up on, fix your hair up pretty and meet me tonight in atlantic city. One the greatest lyrics ever written.
for most of my life, I could take or leave the boss... but at 36 years old, this song burrowed into my head, and I've been obsessed. Over the past two years I haven't heard a single song that is so haunting and real... Thanks to Robert Parker who brought this song into my life. I owe him much more than 50 pesos.
It's kind of sad at 19 I've just discovered Bruce Springsteen, since my family is very UK/Irish about pop and rock, particularly from the 80s. I've known Joy Division longer... but I love The Boss, it's like he put suffering in a bottle and smashed it against the wall, admiring the shards that fall...
get behind the eight ball.. you do whatever it takes.. he should write a song about skuttling a chinese frieghter in boston harbor.. preferably one that is full of tea.. c'mon workin' man.. whatcha' got..?
I remember hearing this song for the first time in my father's '78 Firebird when I was 7 years old. Since I was little this song has spoken to my heart.
This is by far one of my favorite Springsteen songs because I live 3 blocks from the house in South Philly where Phil 'The Chicken Man' Testa lived the night he was blown up.
thanks man for posting this, I just listened to it 3 times in a row, going for a 4th what a great tune.. I like levon helm's cover of this also.. thanks, made for a good morning with my coffee THE BOSS
They don't make songs like this anymore!

Springsteen's like a beat poet who can also sing, compose music, and play guitar.
In short, amazing.

Forse la nostra fortuna è finita e il nostro amore si è raffreddato, ma rimarrò con te per sempre
Andremo là dove la sabbia si trasforma in oro, mettiti le calze perchè le notti si fanno fredde
E magari tutto muore, piccola, così vanno le cose
Ma forse quello che muore un giorno ritornerà indietro
