I believe this song is about Charles Starkweather and Carol Ann Fugate. The two went on a killing spree in Lincoln Nebraska in 1957. Charles used a shotgun most of the time. Starkweather was electrocuted for his crime in 1959, Carol Ann got life but was paroled in 1976

i always thought that when he did this kind of stuff, it was some of his best music. I like the e-street music, it's alright, but i always thought none of it was as good as this and his Tom Joad album.

By the way I always thought of Bruce springsteen for the role of Roland in the dark towers series by stephen king.

The entire album is amazing, Thanks Bruce, please go back in your cottage with a tape recorder and do it one more time. The boss is truly one of the best american singer -songwriter

NAILED IT

thats what the whole album is based around, the name of the album is Nebraska, and in my opinion its pretty much one of the most beautiful records ever made.

You have to listen to Devils and Dust and The Ghost of Tom Joad.

I can't stand any Bruce Springsteen but this album and those two.

Pure genius.

entire album kicks ass

[AnythingWithSound]

only album of his i really enjoy. the rest is too pop and kind of boring for me, just my opinion, but i wish he made more albums like this one.

[unknowable1968]

the movies "balands" and "Natural Born Killers" were heavily inspired by the Starkweather/Fugate killing spree as well

Nebraska has always been my favorite album. I am a fan of stripped back and soul bared music... it's the only Bruce Springsteen album I own.
