This is the hardest as I have 4-5 directions to go in. I know that most won't come back around.

Welp. Fuck me. I guess that's what I get for being a good guy and pointing out your mistake. :shake:
It would seem you and I have extremely similar Springsteen tastes.
Yeah, right? We'll see if that continues as this gets deeper.
I can't get too deep. I'm not a super huge fan.
Oh me either. I've been trying to dig around a bit these last couple of days and I've discovered some really cool stuff. We'll see how this all plays out. I'm having a blast hearing more of his stuff though.
I went through his whole discography late last year as I was reading his book.
How is that book?
It's ok. Reading it, I got the idea that he was writing it from the point of view of a guy that was immensely important to the fabric of rock 'n' roll and knew it. It didn't make me any more a fan.

In the fields of the lord
Stood Abel and Cain
Cain slew Abel 'neath the black rain
At night he couldn't stand the guilt or the blame

So he gave it a name
So he gave it a name
So he gave it a name

Billy got drunk, angry at his wife
He hit her once, he hit her twice
At night he'd lie in bed, he couldn't stand the shame

So he gave it a name
So he gave it a name
So he gave it a name

Pa told me "Son, one thing I know is true
Poison snake bites you, you're poison too"
At night I can feel that poison runnin' 'round my veins

I don't know how smart is was waiting till the third round to pick my favorite Bruce song especially since I have no idea which songs are and aren't valued by his fans. Still I had a feeling it could last....maybe even now it's a stretch...or maybe it was a miracle it lasted...I really have no idea....but for me it's the best...Two Hearts.

I'm glad I grabbed it now then. I'm pretty happy I've gotten three out of my top four wish list picks.

Of course, but he seemed so smug and almost pretentious about it.

I heard this thing for the first time today, if you can believe it. And I was blown the entire fuck away. This thing is magnificent. I put it at the top of my list after listening to it three times in a row.

Wow, nice run of picks. No joke, my list for this round was either Gave it a Name, Two Hearts, Jackson Cage, or [song that hopefully lasts til next round].
