Bruce:
"Born to run was released into post-Vietnam America. There
was a comin gas crisis ... no as ... no cars. People were contemplating
a country that was finite, where resources and life had limits, the dream
that I managed to keep out of "Rosalita" squeezed its way into
the people on Born to run.
As a songwriter
I always felt one of my jobs was to face the questions that evolve out
of my music and search for the answers as best as I could. For me, the
lrimary questions I'd be writing about for the rest of my work life first
took form in the songs of Born to run ("I want to know if
love is real."). It was the best album where I left behind my adolescent
definitions of love and freedom.
Born
to run was the dividing line."
