Applied to Bruce, I think this statement has some merit, but only in the context of having successfully reconnected with the vibe that drove him when he was young, which Magic surely does. If you're suggesting that old farts simply get stale and end up recycling their sound, then I commend to you Tom Petty's Mojo.

Never understood Meg's fascination with Bruce when we were in Jr. High School... I guess it just took me a long time to get mature enough to appreciate Mr. Springsteen.

What kind of foolishness is this?!? You cannot plagiarize your own sound. Every band sounds like itself. Every artist sounds like him/herself. That's because it is THEIR sound to do what ever they want with.
This is GREAT Springsteen and the E St. Band in any era delivering their trademark rock and roll. If you don't like the boss, that's fine but don't belittle his music with rediculous criticism.

sounds like Cover Me from Born in the USA with a little rosalita mixed in..

Bruce does Nickelback.
This is more like the E-Street Template than "sound". Springsteen doesn't strike me as the kind of guy that would need to do this kind of thing. It's not like he was in the Eagles or something.
The earth it gave away
The sea rose towards the sun
I opened up my heart to you
It got all damaged and undone
My ship Liberty sailed away
On a bloody red horizon
The groundskeeper opened the gates
And let the wild dogs run
yuko ! Now I know why I never was into Bruce. Yuk.mandolin wrote:

Derivative Bruce. Boring.
Vintage Bruce/E Street. Welcome back.
Normally not a Bruce fan at all, but this is the third song off this cd I've liked. . . dammit, I gotta add this one to my outstandingly long list of stuff I will eventually buy when I win the lottery. All due to RP, of course. I'd never have heard 90% of the great stuff I've come across here anywhere else.
A boring song from a mediocre musician.
This sounds like a slow verson of cover me, I couldn't get past that.
Nice mug shot, Bruce! (p.s. U R living in the past, Dude!)
Gotta love the Big Man on sax

Bombastic. Good description of most of Bruce's work, especially the early dreck. Yeah, this is OK. Not painful.
this song sounds really good bruce - cant wait till october
Not quite as bombastic as a lot of his other stuff, I guess.
he needs to payhimself a royalty for 10th Avenue Freezeout for the music of this song
nice to hear him going back to some of his old sounds...

A letter come blowin' in
On an ill wind
Somethin' 'bout me and you
Never seein' one another again
And what I knew had come
Stars struck deaf and dumb
Like when we kissed
That taste of blood on your tongue
Don't worry, darlin'
No baby, don't you fret
We're livin' in the future
And none of this has happened yet
Woke up election day
Sky's gunpowder and shades of grey
Beneath the dirty sun
I whistle my time away
Then just about sun down
You come walkin' through town
Your boot heels clickin' like
The barrel of a pistol spinnin' round
The earth it gave away
The sea rose towards the sun
I opened up my heart to you
It got all damaged and undone
My ship Liberty sailed away
On a bloody red horizon
The grounds keeper opened the gates
And let the wild dogs run
Alone I limp through town
A lost cowboy at sundown
Got my monkey on a leash
Got my ear tuned to the ground
My faith's been torn asunder
Tell me is that rollin' thunder
Or just the sinkin' sound
Of somethin' righteous goin' under
None of this has happened yet
None of this has happened yet
None of this has happened yet
None of this has happened yet
Na na na na, na na na na na
