It was an instant love with this crazy crash coarse I'm taking. Damn, I thought for sure it made it back to me. Great pick!

Ok, for my second pick, I'm going with "Dancing In The Dark". I have no idea how "real" Bruce fans feel about this one, but I love it. It's such a powerful song. I think most view it as just a hit and corny video with a young Cortney Cox (with terrible but great 80's dancing).

These lyrics :heartbeat:

I get up in the evening
And I ain't got nothing to say
I come home in the morning
I go to bed feeling the same way
I ain't nothing but tired
Man I'm just tired and bored with myself
Hey there baby, I could use just a little help

I check my look in the mirror
I want to change my clothes, my hair, my face
Man I ain't getting nowhere
I'm just living in a dump like this
There's something happening somewhere
Baby I just know that there is

So that was my third pick but thanks to lowlight, it was moved to #2. I'm mulling over #3 now....

I was hoping Adam Raised A Cain or Badlands would have made it back, "Adam" was my first #3 with "State Trooper" my #2.

Not sure if I should go to Nebraska next, Darkness or venture off that path to the River.

Yep.
It's a flawless song.
I see one flaw.. it's too short.. it needs another verse.. it's about a minute/minute and a half longer and it's his best work.. the live 75 85 version is great because the end is extended a little
I know this is a quote from days ago, but it was bugging me and I wasn't sure why, but now I got it. Those are 2 different songs.

No they're not, I'm just a dick. Sorry, carry on.

I am such an excellent poster...
