I fecking love Thunder Road. I was going to put The River in as well, but it was released in 1980 or 1980, but I think it was written in 1979. :(

Surely one of the best songs ever. It makes me :(

Before I started listening to Bruce, I read that it was one of the greatest songs and then I listened to it and was pretty underwhelmed, but after another listen I couldn't get enough.

"You ain't a beauty, but hey, you're alright" Love it!

He's playing a relatively small gig in Belfast in July, but I can't talk anyone into going with me. The fact that the tickets are £100 doesn't help. Someone needs to go with me!!
