The rock king Bruce Springsteen should almost be 55 before he made the decision of his life. For this definitely seems to be what he has done by participating in the socalled Vote for Change concerts.
The title track is the only song on 'Devils and Dust' with obvious political implications. It offers an acute and condensed account of Springsteen's critical stance towards the war in Iraq - and towards the whole war on terrorism, as this war is being fought out under the dubious leadership of George W. Bush.
...the question arises, why Springsteen had to put 'Jesus was an only son' on his new album. And the obvious place to look for an answer seems to be in the lyrics: The song must express something that he badly needed to express.
...Springsteen isn't just describing sexual activities to provoke the public. 'Reno' is a very quiet and gloomy song, and only prudes will be too offended to notice, that its message is extremely serious, probably even religious
Despite his many great albums the majority of fans and critics will agree, that 'Born to Run' stands out as his finest. And whenever some magazine sets up a list of the leading albums in the history of rock it is by 'Born to Run' that you should expect to see Springsteen represented in the top 30.

'Left in the dark' (from his solo album, 'Bad for Good') is quite an unusual Jim Steinman song. Steinman is a sworn worshipper of forceful attitudes and an ironist who always gets, at least, the laughter on his side. But for the narrator in Left in the dark it is not that easy to act heroic and there is definitely nothing to laugh about.
Martin Heidegger (1889-1976), German philosopher, generally acknowledged as one of the most important thinkers of the 20. century. In his principal work, 'Sein und Zeit' ('Being and Time') from 1927, Heidegger inquired into the basic structures of human existence and the peculiarly human way of experiencing the world
