oh yes!

I get goosebumps when I hear this song out of the blue, as it is so seldom, and if that makes me easily pleased, lucky me!

Bruce fans are so easily pleased. It's kind of sweet.

I have to agree. This is a great choice, too.

Thanks for playing Darkness era Bruce. Wish he would record another raw, emotional, heavy guitar-and-piano-driven album like this!

Bill, Thanks for playing more Bruce lately!
It's just enough to keep the mix diverse and never the obvious choices. Now if you really want to get my attention, play "Incident on 57th Street" one of these days!

Bruce's attempt to imitate David Bowie fails here. The Boss should have stuck to his usual three chord schlock. I've always wondered why self proclaimed rockers admit they enjoy jamming to the combination of crappy guitar and xylophone.

I like about three songs from Bruce and this isn't one of them.

Name one Classic Rock station that plays this song...they're aren't any. Unless you count one random spin for a Bruce Springsteen play day. If you had any knowledge of the guy's catalog you'd know that this is an ecletic choice. It's just an ignorant comment all around really.

I recently found my black tee-shirt from the "Darkness" tour in 78. Funny, it doesn't fit anymore.

I have to say that although I'm not a big fan of Bruce's work during the past two decades, the show I saw on this tour was perhaps the best show I've ever seen. 3 hours in Madison Sq. Garden - It was Bruce's sister's 16th birthday and he ran into the stands, got his sister and threw her over his shoulder and put her ontop of a tower of speakers and had the band play a medley of sweet 16 songs for her. Amazing show.


The Darkness tour was Bruce's best IMHO. Fortunately a good number of these were recorded for radio broadcast and are still "floating around" out there.

Can someone upload Rosalita by Bruce? I just heard it for the first time recently and was floored. Would love to hear it in rotation!

His very best album. I don't consider myself a Springsteen fan. But I play the entire cd loudly. The 2 best cuts are Adam Raised a Cain and Prove it all Night.

Last time I heard this on radio was when Darkness came out in '78 and the late, great KSAN played the be-jeezus out of it. God love 'em! Thanks for playing this Springsteen gem, RP!
