NoneButTheBrave Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 In no particular order...the ten songs that IMO best define Bruce and his facets as a songwriter. Jungleland (for the romanticism) Badlands (for facing reality...and making the best of it) Ghost of Tom Joad (acoustic) (for taking a stand) The Rising (for a rousing anthem and his status as a cultural icon) Moonlight Motel (for his reflectiveness and poetic brilliance) Valentine's Day (for his degree of introspection) Dancing in the Dark (for his mass appeal in conjunction with excellent lyrics) My Father's House (for the songwriting) American Skin (for his relevance) The River (for the storytelling) 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Promise61 Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 Reminds me of the joke doing the rounds during the Apocalypse, Sat in my garden with my wife during lockdown. She told me that if I was bored I should make a bird table. So I did. She was furious when she found out that I'd only put her in fourth place. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lilbaggie Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 The top three rotate depending on mood and state of mind: 1 Racing in the Street (long version) The 2009 Paramount Theater is "the" version 2 Downbound Train I have to say I now prefer the 2013 BITUSA Live performance that's more guitar than synth based 3 Tougher Than The Rest Live or Studio this song is a powerhouse 4 Incident on 57th Street (live) 5 The River 6 Promised Land 7 Independence Day 8 Lucky Town 9 Two Faces 10 Janey Don't Lose Heart 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason1978 Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 1. New York City Serenade 2. Tenth Avenue-Freeze Out 3. Backstreets 4. Rosalita (Come Out Tonight) 5. Badlands 6. Drive All Night 7. Thunder Road 8. Thundercrack 9. Streets of Fire 10. Frankie It really is ever changing outside of the top 4. NYC Serenade is what truly got me into Bruce. That first time hearing that song so many years ago made me know why this guy was The Boss. Glad I FINALLY got to hear it live on his last tour and for the first time since the 70s he played it here in DC. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beautiful Loser Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 The exact placings may change a little, but my number one never will. 1. Racing In The Street 2. Cautious Man 3. Prove It All Night 4. One Step Up 5. Atlantic City 6. My Hometown 7. Secret Garden 8. Tenth Avenue Freeze-Out 9. Moonlight Motel 10. New York City Serenade It hurts that Backstreets, Brilliant Disguise and Candy’s Room didn’t quite make the cut. So difficult. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beautiful Loser Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 Oh how did I forget 'Waitin' On A Sunny Day'? It's only been one of my top ten faves since I first heard it!
