  1. "Working on the Highway" is a 1984 song written and performed by #BruceSpringsteen. It was released on the album #BornInTheUSA and has remained a popular concert song for Springsteen and the #EStreetBand. As with some of the other songs on the Born in the U.S.A. album, including "Downbound Train" and #theTitleTrack, "Working on the Highway" was originally recorded on January 3, 1982, with the demo tracks that eventually became the #Nebraska album.

  2. Double date night at Bruce Springsteen Center for American Music for Tuesday Night Record Club featuring Meat Loaf

    On the way down, we love doing selfies driving over the Driscoll Bridge

    My good friend Lynn and I in front of the center

    Double-date night at Bruce Springsteen Center for American Music, us, Lynn & Doug. Tuesday Night Record Club did Meat Loaf’s “Bat Out of Hell.”
    The first I heard of Meat Loaf was on WNEW-FM during the Phil Rizzuto part of “Paradise by the Dashboard Light. I was only 13 or 14 and couldn’t wait to hear who it was. Meat Loaf. I thought that was the name of the band and went out and got the album. Shortly afterwards, Meat Loaf was at Willowbrook Mall signing autographs.
    I got to meet the legendary Meat Loaf and Jim Steinman. I was disappointed that Ellen Foley wasn’t there. I still have Meat Loaf’s autograph in a box somewhere. My uncle laminated it for me.
    (There’s a lot more to the story, but maybe another time).
    Meat Loaf temporarily pushed Queen out of first place in my record collection. They were my first concert and I had an 11 o’clock curfew at 13 or 14. This was at Montclair State College before they became a University. Seeing all the cool older kids, I felt too young and awkward and couldn’t wait to be older and buy cooler clothes and look more like a teenager instead of a kid. A fabulous cover band called Stars (not to be confused with Starz) was the warm-up band. They came out doing “Magical Mystery Tour.”
    THEN Meat Loaf! I only got to see half of the show in order to get home for curfew. I walked out of the show backwards to soak up every last bit. It was exactly how you see in the videos — Meat Loaf with his long flowing hair, and sweat pouring down his face. Gorgeous Karla DeVito in that legendary white jumpsuit. Front and center, they stood out more than any of the band members. (Three years later at 17, I’d miss my midnight curfew when I saw The Stranglers at Aldo’s getting home at 3 a.m. and getting in big trouble). To this day, I regret not blowing curfew for Meat Loaf.
    Anyway, the presentation was put on by Ken Womack, and his guest for the evening was Ray Andersen who was in Meat Loaf’s touring band.

    It was so awesome listening to tracks from that album. I forgot how epic “For Crying Out Loud” was. Another standout for me, which they didn’t play last night was “Heaven Can Wait.”

    I forgot how beautiful Meat Loaf’s voice was.

    And I forgot that “You Took the Words Right Out of My Mouth” was a video on MTV.

    I do remember the Meat Loaf bio pic that was shown on VH1. I have to look that up and watch it again.

    Meat Loaf was also known for being in Rocky Horror Picture Show.

    What are your Meat Loaf memories? Let us know in the comments!

  3. Darren Aronofsky – „The Whale“ (2022)

    Jetzt mal ehrlich: Dieser Film war ein Monster. Auch wenn es „nur“ drei Oscars dafür gab, hat dieses kleine Kammerspiel für mich 22/23 die Saison als größte Überraschung dominiert. Es war schlicht unglaublich, was Darren Arronofsky und Brendan Fraser aus einem Theaterstück extrahiert und gemeinsam auf die Leinwand gebracht haben. (ARD, Wh.)

  7. Have soul, will share. (Or a deep dive into the philosophy of nothing)

    Daily writing prompt Do you believe in soulmates? Why or why not? View all responses

    I don’t know if I believe in soulmates or not. I’d like to believe soulmates are real, but I’ve never met one. Although, in fairness, I’ve never really put myself out there to meet a soulmate. I’d like to think that’s the reason because the only other reason would be that maybe I don’t have a soul. Yikes!

    A lot of marriages end in divorce. Most, I believe, within the first 10 years, with still a significant number after 25 years of marriage. So if soulmates are really a thing, why do a lot of marriages end in divorce? And why after such a long time? Boredom? I don’t think a soulmate would ever be someone a person would get bored with. Trust? Wouldn’t trust be a given in a soulmate? Infidelity? Why would a soulmate cheat? A soulmate is destiny, and I don’t believe the pain of divorce, the curse of boredom, the violation of distrust, the trauma of infidelity is our destiny as humans. Maybe, if soulmates do exist, people are just plain bad at recognizing them. But even with that, wouldn’t a soulmate be someone you’d recognize on a level that transcends visual recognition?

    A bunch of questions and I have no idea about any of them.

    I guess the existence of soulmates isn’t important to me because a soulmate doesn’t interest me as much as true friendship does.

    “Now we went walking in the rain talking about the pain from the world we hid. Now there ain’t nobody, nowhere nohow gonna ever understand me the way you did” – Bruce Springsteen, Bobby Jean

    I think if soulmates exist they exist within a friendship, a platonic connection, and not as a romantic concept.

    The only way to deal with unanswerable questions is through loud music and whatever it is you call dance.

  10. Human Touch

    The Boss releases his first major work without The E Street Band on March 31, 1992. It's famously released with another album -- Lucky Town. Human Touch was nominated for Best Rock Vocal Performance at the '93 Grammys. That's Randy Jackson on bass and Jeff Porcaro on drums. #brucespringsteen #theboss #springsteen #humantouch #90srock #rockmusic #90smusic #music #musicsky #musiciansky #jeffpocaro #jonlandau

  15. Neben Bruce Springsteens "Streets of Minneapolis" hat gestern auch Ren Vincent's Tale veröffentlicht. Akt III einfach genial.
    Die Demokratie stirbt mit all den Werten, die Reichen ihr Reichtum ermöglicht haben und heute untergraben werden.

    "There is no democracy!
    Democracy ain't corporated lobby free-for-all!
    Democracy ain't rich boy silver spoon seniors!
    Democracy ain't eating up a lie then forgiving you!
    Democracy ain't choosing between herpes or chlamydia!
    Democracy, hypocrisy a synonym entwined!"

  20. Giuseppe Tornatore – „Maestro Ennio Morricone“ (2021)

    Ennio Morricone hat das Kino nicht nur begleitet, sondern ihm eine eigene Seele verliehen. Tornatores Dokumentarfilm entfaltet die Klangwelt des größten Filmkomponisten von allen, wie ein orchestriertes Gedächtnis: Western, Thriller, Drama – jede Szene ein Crescendo, jede Melodie ein Fenster in die Seele eines Films. Ein Porträt, das die Musik, das Leben und das Kino Morricones untrennbar miteinander verwebt. (ARTE, Wh.)

  21. Deliver Me From Nowhere : Jeremy Allen White incarne Bruce Springsteen dans un biopic intense (VIDEO)

    À quelques semaines de sa sortie, le film Deliver Me From Nowhere se dévoile avec une nouvelle bande-annonce captivante. Ce biopic retrace la création de l’album culte Nebraska de Bruce Springsteen et met en lumière ses doutes et sa créativité, incarnés par Jeremy Allen White. Les fans pourront découvrir le long-métrage en salles le 22 octobre 2025 en France.

    Un regard inédit sur la genèse de Nebraska

    Une bande-annonce qui plonge au cœur de l’intimité du Boss

    La nouvelle bande-annonce de Deliver Me From Nowhere, dévoilée le 15 septembre 2025, offre une plongée dans la période où Bruce Springsteen écrivait et enregistrait Nebraska, en 1982. Le trailer met en avant le musicien et son manager historique, Jon Landau, tout en laissant entrevoir les tensions et les questionnements qui ont marqué la création de ce disque intimiste. Le morceau Atlantic City, issu de l’album original, accompagne les images, renforçant l’immersion dans l’univers musical de Springsteen.

    Jeremy Allen White : une incarnation troublante

    Jeremy Allen White, révélé par les séries Shameless et The Bear, prête ses traits au « Boss ». L’acteur parvient à reproduire avec finesse les gestes et l’intensité de Springsteen, offrant une interprétation à la fois vulnérable et captivante. Les spectateurs peuvent observer l’artiste en pleine session d’enregistrement, confronté à ses propres doutes et aux pressions du label, une tension qui structure tout le récit.

    Une reconstitution fidèle de l’époque et du processus créatif

    Des images mêlant authenticité et reconstitution

    Le film alterne scènes reconstituées et archives originales, dévoilant Springsteen jeune, seul avec sa guitare dans sa chambre du New Jersey. Cette dualité permet de saisir le contraste entre la célébrité ultérieure et l’intimité de la création. Le spectateur est témoin de la naissance de ballades sombres et acoustiques, loin des productions orchestrales de la E Street Band, donnant à Nebraska sa force singulière.

    L’accompagnement d’une distribution solide

    Aux côtés de White, Jeremy Strong incarne Jon Landau, tandis que Paul Walter Hauser joue le technicien guitare, Stephen Graham le père torturé, et Odessa Young la muse inspiratrice. Gaby Hoffmann, Marc Maron et David Krumholtz complètent la distribution, contribuant à une immersion totale dans le New Jersey des années 80 et dans le processus créatif de Springsteen.

    La voix du Boss et la dimension documentaire

    Un récit enrichi par Bruce Springsteen

    Le film bénéficie de l’apport de Springsteen lui-même, qui partage ses souvenirs et ses réflexions sur la période Nebraska. Il évoque les attentes liées au succès de The River et ses ambitions personnelles : « J’avais la peau en jeu, j’avais quelque chose à prouver », confie-t-il dans le trailer. Ces interventions donnent au film une authenticité rare, mêlant biopic et témoignage direct.

    Publicités

    Une exploration nuancée du processus créatif

    Réalisé par Scott Cooper, le film s’appuie sur le livre de Warren Zanes, Deliver Me From Nowhere: The Making of Bruce Springsteen’s Nebraska. Il met en lumière les défis d’un jeune Springsteen face aux pressions commerciales, tout en offrant une lecture intime de son art. Les moments d’enregistrement, la tension avec le label et les influences musicales de sa jeunesse sont présentés avec précision, illustrant l’effort et la vulnérabilité derrière chaque chanson.

    Un biopic qui fait déjà parler

    Réactions critiques et anticipation

    Présenté en première au Festival de Telluride en septembre 2025, Deliver Me From Nowhere a suscité des avis partagés. La performance de Jeremy Allen White et les interventions de Springsteen sont saluées pour leur authenticité, tandis que certains critiques relèvent un rythme parfois inégal. Néanmoins, la reconstitution minutieuse des années 80 et l’atmosphère intime de l’album sont unanimement reconnues.

    Publicités

    Une sortie imminente qui excite les fans

    Distribué par 20th Century Studios, le film sortira aux États-Unis le 24 octobre 2025 et en France le 22 octobre. Cette sortie est attendue avec impatience par les amateurs de rock et les fans du Boss, offrant une occasion unique de découvrir l’envers du décor d’un album légendaire. La bande-annonce promet déjà une expérience immersive et émotionnelle, centrée sur l’homme derrière les mythes.

    Deliver Me From Nowhere promet une immersion profonde dans la création de Nebraska, un album emblématique de Bruce Springsteen.

  22. On that note, some words from Bruce Springsteen, as shared by our @CultureDesk. "The last check on power after the checks and balances of government have failed, are the people, you and me," said the Boss at a show in Manchester, U.K. Here’s the video of his many anti-Trump remarks at the show.
