- “Fire” Live/1975-85, 1986. One of Springsteen’s most covered tunes (it’s been done by everyone from Cher to Link Wray), “Fire” was written in 1977 to be sung by Elvis Presley; as Springsteen has said, “I sent [Elvis] a demo of it, but he died before it arrived.”
- “American Land” Wrecking Ball, 2012. Originally recorded during The Seeger Sessions in 2006, “American Land” turns a poem written by a 19th-century steelworker (and set to music by Pete Seeger) into Springsteen’s version of a Pogues song.
- “Brothers Under the Bridge” Tracks, 1998. There’s a Springsteen song with a nearly identical title: an uptempo E Street rave-up left off Born in the U.S.A.
- “County Fair” The Essential Bruce Springsteen, 2003. Cut in 1983, this song didn’t get its first official release for another 20 years. And though “County Fair” was written in the wake of Nebraska, it feels worlds away from that album’s stark hard-luck tales.

"Born to Run" was the anthem of a generation left behind in the late 1970s: "In the day we sweat it out in the streets of a runaway American dream / At night we ride through mansions of glory in suicide machines / Sprung from cages out on highway 9 / Chrome wheeled, fuel injected, and steppin' out over the line / Baby this town rips the bones from ...
This ballad is regarded as one of Springsteen's absolute best, capturing almost all the elements that make a great Springsteen song: A dead-end job, an American-made car and dreams of something better someday. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZOWIAXsfZus
There's a profound irony to "Born in the USA" being used at political rallies, especially by candidates with war hawk records...but it hasn't stopped them. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EPhWR4d3FJQ
Believe it or not, "Blinded by the Light" was Springsteen's only song to ever go to No. 1—and only when Manfred Mann sang it. The song inspired a movie of the same name, released in 2019. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xPy82OO6vRg
