You can hide beneath the covers and study your pain, make crosses from your lovers, throw roses in the rain. Waste your summer praying in vain, for a savior to rise from these streets.

Bruce Springsteen
Music was my way of keeping people from looking through and around me. I wanted the heavies to know I was around.
Bruce Springsteen
I would rather feel the hurt inside, yes I would darling, than know the emptiness that your heart must hide.
Bruce Springsteen
The music is pretty relentless. You've got to find some way of letting the audience breathe for a minute, give them a little bit of air - but not too much. Otherwise it would get real intense. The room would get very tense.
Bruce Springsteen
I like narrative storytelling as being part of a tradition, a folk tradition.
Bruce Springsteen
I told a story with the E Street Band that was bigger and better than I could have done on my own.
Bruce Springsteen
I had a ten-piece band when I was 21 years old, the Bruce Springsteen Band. This is just a slightly expanded version of a band I had before I ever signed a record contract. We had singers and horns.
Bruce Springsteen
Got a wife and kid in Baltimore Jack, I went out for a ride and I never went back. Like a river that don't know where it's flowing, I took a wrong turn and I just kept going.
Bruce Springsteen
It's a town full of losers And I'm pulling out of here to win.
