Leave it to Springsteen to take a melancholy James Taylor song and turn it on its head.
Sometimes you can hear a song 50 times and then one day for whatever reason it hits you hard.
For me the follow-up song to “Thunder Road” was “Racing In The Street”. This was what happened after Mary got in that car, left that town full of losers… to win. A reality check indeed.
When I first heard this record I had long given up on the hope that Bruce would do something truly great again in my lifetime, I was proven wrong.
“Come Go With Me” still has a heavy rotation in all of our personal jukeboxes.
The record player wound up in the garbage and like everyone else I moved along without stopping to think about it. I’ve since learned a valuable lesson: be aware of the rituals that make you happy and to not fix what’s not broken.
