My Lucky Day is a major improvement over Working On A Dream. Nice to hear Clarence.

And The Wrestler is gorgeous.

Ooooh, yes, I really like that one. Thanks Phanan. When did that surface? I had no idea he was doing a song for that movie.

On a side note that movie is generating a ton of positive buzz and Mickey Rourke looks to be one of the front-runners for an Oscar for his performance in it.

Could Bruce be up for another Oscar for Best Original Song?

 

[phillyfan26]

Thank God Workin' on a Dream wasn't the best song on the album.

My Lucky Day is good enough to allow me to feel that this album will be enjoyable.

 

[martha]

Thank God Workin' on a Dream wasn't the best song on the album.

No shit. I was worried.

 

[shari schultz]

My favorite is The Wrestler I would like to think that would get nominated for a Oscar
Lucky Day is next
Working On A Dream is on the bottom out of the 3.

Official video for My Lucky Day:

MySpaceTV Videos: My Lucky Day with behind the scenes footage by Bruce Springsteen

Yeah, I know. Who knew Bruce had a MySpace page?

 

[phanan]

Ugh, I don't like the cover at all.

 

[corianderstem]

It's like a Bruce paint-by-numbers!

 

[LarryMullen's POPAngel]

That's just bad. Like, horribly bad.

 

[bono_212]

Oh dear.

 

[phanan]

It makes the Magic cover look like a Picasso.

The only good thing about this cover is reading the horrified posts over on Backstreets.

 

[bono_212]

Oh dear. I'm more afraid to venture over there for this matter than I was for the Working on a Dream halftime debacle.

 

[lazarus]

And Bruce continues his amazing streak of shitty album covers!

A record not likely to be broken anytime soon.

 

[phanan]

Yeah, album covers have certainly not been a strength of his.

You know it's bad when one of his best album covers is a simple black and white photogragh through the windshield of a car.

 

[achtung_girl]

I wouldn't mind that eyesore, err sorry cover, if the content is !

 

[No spoken words]

Just listened to My Lucky Day and I like it a lot. Color me relieved.

 

[phanan]

I think we all breathed a collective sigh of relief after hearing it.

 

[bono_212]

I think we all breathed a collective sigh of relief after hearing it.

Personally, I whistled.

Best comment there:

Easy to see now why they took The Jersey Devil off - it would scare the shit out of all the five year olds who buy the album.

 

[corianderstem]

Aw, they took The Jersey Devil off the tracklisting? Poop.

 

[LemonMelon]

Yeah, that disappoints me as well. It had a cool Tom Waits-meets-the Midnight Rambler thing going on.

 

[bono_212]

Glad I already have it then. Leaving it off still really sucks.

 

[lazarus]

Better Days+Lucky Town+Lonesome Day=My Lucky Day?

I guess after 45 years it's hard to come up with new titles and lyrics...

Song is great, though.

So everyone hates Working On A Dream (the song)?

It's really grown on me. I love Bruce's vocal on the song. The tune gets stuck in my head everytime I play it, and it's fun to sing.

"The rain pourin down, I swing my hammer. My hands are rough from wurkin' on a dream..."

 

[joyfulgirl]

<----------horrified by record cover

It's really neither good nor bad. It's just...ok.

Sensible people hate it. It gets the other horrible song "Girls in Their Summer Clothes" going trough my head because the two songs sound too similar.

Don't know if I would want to take credit for that cover, whoever it is.........
Day into night with blood like splatters on his shirt? 'Splain please.

 

[GirlsAloudFan]

No they have not. Although I think the Born In The U.S.A. cover is pretty iconic by now. Bruce's patriotic butt and all that. And I've always really liked the Born to Run cover...but that might just be because I love that album so damn much.
