I'm about to listen to Born To Run. Running diary?

 

[phillyfan26]

Do it, man.

 

[phillyfan26]

I need to leave, but do the diary and I'll read and reply when I return.

 

[Screwtape2]

Here goes...

I like the harmonica at the beginning of Thunder Road.

 

[Screwtape2]

Got delayed so I'm still on Thunder Road. I really like the line "roll down the windows and let the wind blow back your hair."

 

[Screwtape2]

I don't like the ending of Thunder Road. There is no payoff.

 

[Screwtape2]

Tenth Avenue Freeze Out sounds really dated with the piano part and sax. It is probably a lot better live.

 

[Screwtape2]

I am finding Night to be glorious.

 

[Screwtape2]

The intro to Backstreets is quite beautiful. Was it this keyboardist that died recently? I hope not I really like him.

 

[Screwtape2]

Backstreets is probably my favorite song on the album so far. Must be a great song to sing along with at a concert, the chorus at least.

 

[Screwtape2]

Born To Run is great.

I love the line, "I want to guard you dreams and visions."

 

[Screwtape2]

Nice short sax solo.

 

[Screwtape2]

I have to confess that I stopped and repeated the "guard your dreams and visions" line a couple times.

 

[Screwtape2]

Wow. The piano intro to She's The One is beautiful.

 

[LMP]

I don't like the ending of Thunder Road. There is no payoff.

It's a town full of losers... I'm pullin' outta here to wiiiiiiiiiin!

*badass sax starts*

Isn't enough of a pay-off for you?

 

[Screwtape2]

I wish U2 would write songs like She's The One nowadays. A simply melody that sets the pace of the song with the other three unleashing pure controlled passion.

 

[DreamOutLoud13]

Listening to Bruce? Pity Ashley's not here She's recently become an addict.

 

[Screwtape2]

It's a town full of losers... I'm pullin' outta here to wiiiiiiiiiin!

*badass sax starts*

Isn't enough of a pay-off for you?

Nope.

 

[Axver]

G'day everyone.

 

[Screwtape2]

Somehow I doubt anyone has said their favorite song this far into the album is Meeting Across The River. Well it is my favorite song so far. Simply, beautiful. Sort of like Promenade.

 

[LMP]

Wait 'til Jungleland.

 

[Screwtape2]

The strings at the beginning of Jungleland is a nice touch.

 

[Axver]

Tenth Avenue Freeze Out sounds really dated with the piano part and sax. It is probably a lot better live.

TENTH TENTH TENTH TENTH TENTH TENTH!

It made me laugh.

 

[Screwtape2]

G'day everyone.

Hey Axver.

Just finishing my running diary of Born To Run by Springsteen.

 

[Screwtape2]

LemonMacPhisto, who produced this record?

 

[Axver]

Hey Axver.

Just finishing my running diary of Born To Run by Springsteen.

Looks like you're enjoying it more than I did.

I still need to get around to giving Darkness On The Edge Of Town and Nebraska a shot.

 

[Screwtape2]

The sax in Jungleland is another reason why it is my favorite brass instrument.

 

[LMP]

Jesus.

But really, here's what Wikipedia told me:

Bruce Springsteen, Mike Appel, Jon Landau
