Oh yeah, I know this one will please at least two good friends of mines who have tried for years to push the Boss in my playlist.
When the alarm went off today the news were on, I thought "Jeez, this is going to be a crappy day", then I snoozed and the Boss was on later, so i guess the day is safe. London is blessed with a great sun today- let's hope it lasts over the weekend!
This video is a weird and usettling gem for a number of reasons:
- the tight white shirt worn by Springsteen with the short sleeves rolled up: a pack of Red Malboro under that sleeve would be just the final touch;
- an Elvis-like pelvic movement restlessy performed by the Boss for more than 6 minutes- these days it would qualify for a red dot even on MTV;
- a perfectly shaved and hair-combed Springsteen who may just be the lead charcater of a soap opera, miles away from the rusty gentleman we see today;
- a no more than teen Courtney Cox (Monica from Friends) who's invited to dance with him on the stage with a ridicolous bow by Springsteen.
God bless the '80s!

I'm not so sure about that "god bless the 80s", but the video is really cool and it's great to know that you do in fact like the boss.
