| Bruce Springsteen – Thunder Road Lyrics | 12 years ago |
| I don't think that Bruce absolutely rejected the emphasis on youth here, but he did present a vision of youth that is much more nuanced and reflective of how people actually live their lives. When I was about 21, I got the idea in my head that I needed to move to Nashville and make a name for myself. Not musically, just live in a large city in the South. That's kind of what happens when you grow up in a small town and you feel as if you've outgrown it. That was a mistake, of course - a costly one - but one that represents the folly of youth. | |
