"Ready It's i think we're risk kind of creates this full on rocker persona elevage elvis Stylings going on with his goals It's full of innuendo and sorta double ondra Again just thinking bike to sort of a concert memory. I was dying in dublin. Misses the third concert. That i had been out of the that. I've seen brisk with my wife. And i remember recalling that there was this young couple that as soon as the opening notes of cadillac She hoped don't tell them on top of his bike on a were just in blessed That that i think has just cemented as my guilty pleasure. I love it. I think that is a great choice. And you know there is a lot of difficulty questions. All of them and I think in a lotta ways. Guilty pleasure is one of the weirdest ones because you know you you love them all you know and and i think it is. That can be difficult to choose what is wrong. And what is a guilty pleasure I've often heard many people say they don't believe in guilty. Pleasure said if you enjoy you enjoy it but great choice. I love it all right. This is kind of a follow up But song you wish you had seen live. There are a number from western stars letter to yogi and mention those before I definitely remember saying about how much i've enjoyed rian maker. And if i were raced but the song that i have to see like even i have to shown before you know anything happens to the on or a he wraps up or whatever. I have to see reacing in st l. k. Yeah why why is that. I think it's because ev reminds me of my best friend. V is a a guy cold and we have known each other from high school We are still best friends to the state and one of those things whenever we were In the upper end of our our high school that kind of cemented that was was car culture. We we loved cars on. We love to go in taken. Our our cars going crazy. Dying the promenade here Nearby and and shares.

"I think I i kind of approach. This jesse of if i was on a deserted island on the only song that i could here again if i was to listen to some of these other ones it made me feel very very isolated on quite done whereas this is something that i am to. You know caught my hans west. I'm going to topple my legs. it's the deadly. it's they a- mayes two even earlier oaken rule. It's the sax solo alkaster phone song. I just love now. That's a great choice. That's really great. Song changed your life song. That changed my life. Okay so this is where we're going to disagree because i'm teasing jungle. Lambs for the song but chase. I think there's a few reasons again for the in some way. There's the challenge of the lyrics. Where he he kind of talks the poet here and right nothing at all. They just stunned bike on the lhasa. Old I think the the key is kind of encouraging. I find that quite encouraging us to make an honest stunned by you know whatever you think about things maybe even in my my job my career choice a little bit of becoming a teacher and trying to sort of just inspire others and shoot them other ways of thinking And stuff like that but is an actual song It's the individual parts. I think as well the play into that you sort of this. Mournful psych solo of clarence That when i watched the live in new york city version just moves me to tears. you've got roy's piano you've got those hulls of bursts at the end. I think the other reason that i would put. This is why it changed my life. I think again. It's maybe actually to do with policemen. Only album on the orange run album defined that dot is the last thing that you hear on. That album is Just they almost orchestral sense of the music.

"I love the bunder. Dot exists between. Bruce and steve particularly when they go on It's going home time. It's quitting time. And all of that. But i think sometimes it's music strong bet and its life capacity Also maybe as with be skull connections over here in northern ireland and the uk It it's maybe sport just as prominent. But i get the premise and i liked the premise of the idea of looking back and reflecting on your glory days. Maybe it's. I'm just a little too young ma'am just noted that stage for sure late resonate with me So those are some of the reasons why i think maybe it's a little various. Okay that's interesting You know that is slow song. He plays live a lot You know so interesting. All right song the and we're gonna leave left the negative part of the list song. That is underappreciated. Right this this is probably the category jesse. Nearly closely the most difficulty So the one that. I'm going to go with both of the songs here that i'm sort of torn between i think are under appreciated and the sense of because they're quite simple. It's the simplicity of so one that i'm going to go with is shall take the light okay Just as i said the simplicity of the music the lyrics. I think it's a so that is quite appreciative by some of the found via split. I'm nearly going from the perspective. That bruce Maybe obviously in crafting the board in the yes album felt that it didn't fit For whatever reason And he has a number of songs of course tell the narrative of of war veterans and so But he put it on tracks. Didn't put it on the album. So i'm going to go. That maybe he under appreciates the a little bit so showed i. I just think The story of the mind returning home from more the the sense that he's not quite ready to face the homecoming That is being prepared for the pretend that everything's okay. Then we're taken to His his wife his partner getting ready for has returned having ensured that the children are being looked after. But it's it's the chorus it's the the mama mama mama come quick. I've got the shakes. And i'm gonna be sick. Put your arms around man the cold night. Hey nine moment shall like the light. It takes me back to my childhood childhood. Like emerson's of just being a self confessed mama's boy where when you were sick and you were l. And even when you're grown up on your last year when you're when you're having a dying day or when you're l or badreddin or whatever or something just that loveliness o- of wanting to call the wom- person. He was always able to come foggy and always able to be there your mother. I think it's just such a enemies and so yeah the choice. Great great great. And now i want to listen to it after hearing you talk about it right yes. So that's that's great. I it was. It was a difficult choice. But i think it's the one that i always combined to my own mentioned for that one.

"Show is an absolute monster raising things up and then bringing the temple bank jain but i just kind feel like this one foles allow vet flat for me I think as well he chose to perform at sometimes Four of locked in sessions when he was promoting album and stuff. I just think there's maybe after songs off the album that he could have performed but granted. Of course he had he had new band probably served in a variety of that so he was seeing something worker sticks so i will forgive him that but i think it's more today with just the policeman of the sewn on the way to particularly like my friend. Sam talked about that He doesn't He kills like the he repeats. The house of a thousand guitars just a little too much. You know So okay very interesting. choice I will keep in mind though. That outlaw pete got a vote again His he does not as i shared. Not one of my favorite songs either but The very good choice very good choice. All right you'll have to keep a tally gambling. You're getting literally gas you know. That's a that's a good idea. I make notes You know as. I'm talking to every gas so i have all those notes could come back and do an episode. Maybe because you know in september is the sixth anniversary of the show. Make a note. Maybe that would be an interesting episode to say. Hey this is the songs that have been picked multiple times so okay good. Thank you for that. Ideally all right Song you think is overrated. Okay i fear may be crucified here by someone. Hey i picked. I picked jungle land. I figure i took for the team right. I you know. I figured that one is not moody. Reassures me good good. I'm madly okay.

"We have been persuaded by invitation of joining him in the car and therefore mary hooping persuaded. I'm guessing the card. Also i like that. I like that. That's a good ending. That's a good answer very nice and you know. It is a one of the things that i am very proud of and is that you know we all are we all have our own journey and i really like how you spoke about. Some of us have been on this journey with bruce longer than others but it. It's all just as important in intense to us. You know like laura who's been on the show a couple of times and we just had songs over life you know she she's like nineteen but she's you know. She grew up listening to born in the usa. And has you know she's going to broadway to see him the first time and he is just a passionate fan as You know Dan french who has been on the show multiple times that saw him way. Back you know in the seventies and his seen him so many We we can't judge the fandom based on the years it's the passion and love and you know there there. Is someone out there. Just discovering bruce this summer and in is becoming enthralled in his going to Of course now than you don't have to go to record stores you can go online. But i've virtually going to record stores in a you know i. I remember when i first discovered the beach. Boys every records are to go to the b section. And i would scan just to see. Is there an album. I don't have whereas cassette. i don't have and so there are people doing that. That are going through spotify and finding zones in going to online whether it's backstreet or amazon ordering stuff and i just think that's beautiful thing it is what it what a trait but lies ahead for them. Yeah what a treat. The lies ahead for definitely know. And what's what's fascinating. And i mentioned this a lot on the podcast the night. I wish i could remember who told me that. But it might have been bud but the guy that talked about he was there at the reunion. Show thinking this is it. This is the peak of springsteen phantom. It's never going to get better than this. And he had no idea will. Rise wrecking ball broadway. You know western stars is just amazing. So we'll leave. This has been a blast. I hope he had fun. I enjoyed it very much.

"The tunnel of love is an album. That i that means a lot to me too. I think it's really brilliant and you know like when he was doing albums shows that would have been what i wanted to see him. Doing you know the love from beginning to end. I think would be just lovely to see. I've been able to see a couple songs In houston he did one step up as design requests and You know he makes the joke that The full eastern band had not done one step up since like the late nineties and he makes the joke. We do not know this. You have major bed sir. Cracks me up Any others that you just are on your list definitely a. It's it's nearly. They pick sued as a thing in the state unbiased straits as well that would be. That would be awesome again. That'd be great final thoughts. And what have i asked you. What have i not asked you that. I should've -ly thank you. You've covered almost every jessica. I having listened to your podcast. I know the question. I was thinking if i not to see their hunting. Jesse hasn't asked anyone before linked up and The only thing that i could think of was is there anyone that like. You're listening to night. That reminds you of bruce. That's a great question. Is there someone you're listening to. Their kind of is Or certainly hoping there's a young i From the northeast of the uk. Cold sound sender. Okay some released his debut album couple years ago called hypersonic messiahs and It was absolutely fantastic. And he would bruce as like his his total inspiration is a massive fan of chris. He's actually covered Dancing in the dark on atlantic. Set a a number of shows and things like that So i would definitely urged people to check him. I think he's again really good Social commentary and succinctly put in things a are so relatable. Sam fender vendor. I've made a note. I will google him When we finish and check that out very nice good all right so you know we got to end with mary. Question so and I unfortunately you being an english teacher. My expectations are pretty high rope but Just in case this is someone you are leased friend and listening to this podcast because of lee. And you have not heard others The mary question is basically came from A wonderful man named j armstrong who is an honors english teacher in the philadelphia area. He just recently retired Bud every year his Honors english class their senior year. He would take two days and they would take thunder road and break it down as a summer to what you were searingly that you would do. You would share who lyrics and pretend you know in say not tell them it was song lyrics and so they they break apart. The imagery of The song they would compare it to other points similar to like robert frost the road not taken and then At the end of the two days the question he would ask as class. Is mary get in the car at the end of thunder road so leave. That is your question you have the floor. She gets in the car. Okay definitely gets in the car. I think This is bruce. Invitation to marry yes but it is brisk invitation to us to get in the car along with him for the journey and we been on that journey with them some longer than others some for many decades On some for only a short time but we have been on that journey and that journey has maybe ebbed and flowed in terms of people's musical tastes and preferences and so will People have have so him get married and become a father and they got marez and become a father and so on so.

"That is. the question isn't even maybe nights time. I try and get three of their off to go. Yeah me lovely over go Might be the next. I think. I i actually have a little tear thinking of that. The four of you there that would be wonderful So you mentioned about wanting to hear junker land live and you got it. Are there other songs that you would love to hear. And i think most of us do have a little bitty if not physically written down a mental checklist of you. Want to hear totaling. I think as well you know maybe come to quitely it's on The fact that when when bris was playing here within ireland At those times for the majority of the micheals uproxx shouldn't And so i couldn't travel site or beyond here And that has been limited me in terms of the songs that i share of my may be a bit longer than some other people's. We talked about reacing racing straight. Yeah that's definitely up there. I absolutely adore shaikh delight light. I would love to hear show delight. Yeah again weeping mentioning. They're sort of tunnel. And i love the title track. Love one step up and walk like a man. I think it's just such personal and Woke like mom Just i remember. I think that kind of appeals to me in terms of lake my own childhood experience and then my own wedding day experiences. Well so there's there's quite a number of those of course anything anything we will be blessed to hear from you. Fetal is frankly anything from western stars. i'm just so looking forward to some of the literature. You materialism have slowly. Yeah i agree. I my my worry and and it's not true worry is That they may skip over. Western stars seem fear entrance Though i you know. I'd love to tucson train moonlight. We'll tell you anything from that would be wonderful You know and the the dilemma. He has is. How do i mix the songs that people want to hear with the new material and like You know we think about going back to the beginning of your watching that. Dvd live from barcelona right. He was able to make a lot of the rising songs along with. You know what we would call standards stuff so i'm hoping that's going to be where it is a similar. It's like you know when he toured with magic or you know see. Yeah so that'll be interesting I i would love to see.

"Has really gripped megan. And i think in lots of writer. And i'm not sure why entirely but i love it on on the atlantic city etc Tongue of love has always helped me for some reason I think again just knowing and having reds versus autobiography of course where he was on about point. Personally i think just means so much more when you hear those songs than you interpret them. In light of of his personal circumstances absolutely And then of course sort of moving into to human touch and him becoming a father and we have a little boy who's who's to know And we we quite a rough start as wales so he did just when he was born so kind of find during a little bit of where he was in there. You're kind of charting. I suppose your own journey. In accordance with with bruce's journey and seeing so much of yourself and on the within his songs in his life well you know living proof and longtime coming are very parental songs and You know my son is an adult but there was a he. He hit a rough spot. As many young people do and He was feeling pretty depressed. You know There is a great song That brad paisley does. That does letter to you. I don't know if you know the song. If i could write a letter to me back when i was sixteen and lyrics is all about him what he would tell his sixteen year old and that and Land of hope and dreams. You know where i talked about. You know faith will be rewarded. You know that you will. we can overcome. This has been a lot to me and my family but I can only imagine you now. Have a young son. And you'll be able to raise him. Love fleetwood mac to to love the eagles like from your mother your father. And then bruce springsteen that's you know another generation of music love that you'll be able to share with him. I know and i. I've been very fortunate in that i can. You know you just kind of fulfill that dream of of learning and taking up the piano come and my wife is like far better piano player than i but i have a number of like brisk music and When he was young. I sort of playing like little cords and stuff because the night and and things and it's starting to builder in he could be gremlin moment of i go to i'm enclave because the it'll stop all all been awesome.

"They just they were so happy buying and just to see that joy because his life shows are incredibly joyful for the most bear a little times he knows when to bring it up and bring it in the bank but There was just such joy bodies. It was like you know i. I've adventure this multiple times on the podcast. And i know you've listened to a fair sodas and by the way thank you you sent a very wonderful email saying how much you enjoyed the show. And that's how we connected but I do think that during the river tour in two thousand sixteen they. There was an awareness that the road behind them as longer than the road. In front of them there is a finite amount of time left where they will get to play together. And i do think that there is a sense of joy that they are enjoying every moment on stage that they are getting to perform and So i do think that what i love. The idea lee is you. And i won't put words in your mouth you've been able to share three shows with the three most important people in your life totally your mother your father and then your lovely bride. No you've summed up really well just say and my wife i think was so bristles like my number one number two is probably mike and stevie next and She's she's bored. And i almost of hearing me constantly talk about fight terrorism And then it was dot show and seeing brisk That she totally goes jeff han. She was converted on. I think again Sort of like the lyrics and the poetry. He played jungle on that night. As a as a request on jungle was like in my list of songs that i needed to see life right and She knew high spatial. That was for me and i think again. Just his writing within the site streets on fire. A real death waltz catholic against the subpoenas to you. Know you're you're totally correct type shared with happiness important people. That's that's that's great. That's that's wonderful so.

"Of Of that moment. I think just again. The intensity taken it in my hometown the poignancy of leading into the river on then the ri- easing on bringing into land of hope and dreams. Just that sense of celebration and and hope and promise It was it was pregnant and the core them. He did born in the usa and born to run bike to bike. I thought i'd died and go into heaven to fight to bike I remember as well just us being there and of course following lawrence's death right. They played tenth avenue freeze. In of course they had the montage of the moments with breasts and aren't santana interjected there and just the cried. Even though such an energetic lively so The craig was very stealth. Actually during a almost why lose moments on and breaking into spontaneous applause when the bagman joined the bounds and everything to slow sharing for that moment And this was also then the show that i think during american lands. Which was the last song that jake injured himself on. I believe the next night. He ended up playing a sykes from from a wheelchair. Okay i have no idea what happened. And maybe a little too much guinness consumed so you stand of the night shows. are removing shows. The second one was a little bit closer to home. So it was an belfast. Right in belfast. Almost a year or just over a year after it was july twenty thirteenth. I'm for that one. I took my dad all nice. This was my first ever concert. Sealife music performance from a big artists ever before so so Because i think probably for the full year had been riven being like you have to go and see brisk the next time versus here. We're going on. I think i remember that. Show probably the best because this was during the time where in european shows he was sometimes coming andean. little pre show acoustics right So i remember santa my dad. We've gotta get there super early. We've gotta be standing in line to try and get in on. Of course he's thinking this is mountainous. The show doesn't start until like five hours time. are we do. It was sweltering as well. It was absolutely boiling heat waves on all of a sudden the lane started moving on. We like being levin the surly. This.

"He's doing things Yeah yeah now idea of of kind of pleasing in tenure or categorizing um on. I think it's something that would be on. The face of. It seems quite simple today. But i think actually could be quite difficult you with sort of the just the trajectory of things and high much. There's over loud bang and bear in mind when some of the songs may have initially been created but no actually recorded albums. Yeah yeah night because western stars was actually recorded. You know several years before he released it and What are your thoughts on like western stars and letter to you. I love them. Both western stars in particular. I don't know why. I think i probably less to western stars a little more than letter to you. I guess And i didn't think i would have done that. But i have done again. I'm not sure if it's the fact dole's the car jerks the car duration what's That kind of double meaning of a of western stars means within the title And i just. I'm so hooked on moonlight. Motel unstoppable particular From western stars does nothing against letter to you because i adore ladder. T. eight. I think sort of that rav songs on it Such as you know the power of prayer rian maker If i were the brakes on me as there are so many days on my commute to work where i'm sort the last five seven minutes of my journey and i put it on if i were the on. There is nothing like rocking up to school with the guitar solo. That ends if i were the brakes just said she all through your day so i really enjoyed the latest I felt like western stars. And a lot of ways could almost be a collection of elmore leonard short stories or zane grey's restores right so it is a very Cinematic and literary album is filled with little short stories So i could see why that would.

"The influence of of what was going on in the country owned the rising that that was the you. You've already answered my next question. Is you know the live in. Barcelona is during the rising tour inside. Wondered if you understood the context of some of the songs that's from the rising you know And it isn't totally about nine eleven but it certainly you know influenced him in. There was a lot in there so did did that. Kind of sparked the english fan in you like. Oh this is. He's actually discussing historical events. You know social events yes absolutely Think again you know nine. Eleven when nine eleven. I actually took place. I was only eleven years old right. Tom on so i remember the images vividly At about time and so on But as you say it was probably than starting to delve into the rising and so on and understand this is a man who comments on historical on the social And there is a great deal of social comb entree and personal commentary going on within versus music and his lyrics on. I think the clicked with english side of things for me. Well as someone who has you know you're you're young man. You have found that poetry is speaking to you. Do you think that in this is kind of an obvious question but the lyrics and how well he portrays a story in his songs did that. Do you think that really spoke to you. Once you got into it as someone. Who's reese who was exploring poetry. Yeah absolutely so. I i would say that. Probably woman setting aside the music. Because i absolutely love the music being today of the street. Bond book collectively on individually. Because i i always had a fascination for piano and drums and whenever i was younger we frankly couldn't afford a piano or for me to like take up piano lessons and stuff like that I didn't do that until kind of lake. Secondary skill started to work on key And things like that. So i've kind of thought funds nation. I suppose if i was picking some of my favorite songs they are very much piano drum driven. I guess But if we if leaves site the music then definitely. It's the lyrics. it's the dre. It's the narrative that bruce's able to construct on her he's able to say something so succinctly in the same way suppose much as as portrayed does on yet it's it's like a sledgehammer to you when you gross It just cuts deep or you just this moment of realization Moment of empathy moment of sympathy for the characters are just are able tay I suppose save yourself within There's something about something that speaks to you. The you do So you know you you discovered you know live at barcelona. Assume you started exploring other albums. Yeah absolutely Benefits you know going all the way back to the start of the discography And you know. I think maybe took me a little longer to warm to the first albums of of greetings in the wild but of course then whenever born to run hats and you follow on three born to run the you know the river nebraska. Born in the tunnel of love. Those are just. I'd of this. World is stunned nobles On there was there was always something within the In fact there were so many things within the. And i think that's where okay the sky isn't just sort of one trick pony where he's writing to buy something socially on one album i e the right. He's and this has been something that you can trace all the way through his career And i was like. I need to war. Yeah it is kind of.
