More quotes by Bruce Springsteen
I like narrative storytelling as being part of a tradition, a folk tradition.
Bruce Springsteen
You ride in a limousine the first time, it's a big thrill but after that it's just a stupid car.
Bruce Springsteen
She kissed me just right, like only a lonely angel can.
Bruce Springsteen
Wendy, let me in, I wanna be your friend. I wanna guard your dreams and visions.
Bruce Springsteen
We said we'd walk together baby come what may.That come the twilight should we lose our way.If as we're walkin a hand should slip free,I'll wait for you And should I fall behind,Wait for me.
Bruce Springsteen
After 'Born to Run,' I had a reaction to my good fortune. With success, it felt like a lot of people who'd come before me lost some essential part of themselves. My greatest fear was that success was going to change or diminish that part of myself.
Bruce Springsteen
You can go from doing something quite silly to something dead serious in the blink of an eye, and if you're making those connections with your audience then they're going to go right along with it.
Bruce Springsteen
It's time to impeach the president and get a man in there to get us out of this mess.
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
cause down the shore everything's all right
Bruce Springsteen
The future is now. Roll up your sleeves and let your passion flow. The country we carry in our hearts is waiting.
Bruce Springsteen
Born To Run, that expands every time we go out. It just seems to you - more of your life fills it in, fills in the story. And when we hit it every night, it's always a huge catharsis. It's fascinating to see the audience singing it back to me. It's quite wonderful, you know, to see people that intensely singing your song.
Bruce Springsteen
You ain't a beauty but, hey, you're all right.
Bruce Springsteen
When I was young I was very shy and that was my personality. I was a pretty sensitive kid and quite neurotic, filled with a lot of anxiety.
Bruce Springsteen
I realized the only time I felt complete and peaceful was while I was playing or shortly afterwards, even though it was in front of thousands of other people, which most people wouldn't consider to be a safe place.
Bruce Springsteen
My only general rule was to steer away from things I played with the band over the past couple of tours. I was interested in re-shaping the Rising material for live shows, so people could hear the bare bones of that.
Bruce Springsteen
The songs themselves do broaden out as time passes and take on subtly different meanings, take on more meaning, I find.
Bruce Springsteen
Just sitting around waiting for my life to begin, while it was all just slipping away.
Bruce Springsteen
I guess there's just a meanness in this world
Bruce Springsteen
Roy Orbison is singing for the lonely, hey, that's me and I want you only.
