Aahhh I just discovered that you have a tag for Bruce! I went through it and omg yesss spn has much more of a Springsteen vibe than a Zeppelin vibe, I really wish they'd use some of his songs. And I'm always so surprised his music isn't more popular in the fandom, a lot of his songs just scream wincest and/or Dean Winchester to me. I could write a ton of fic based on his songs. And I agree with you, he's one of the very best storytellers out there. 1/2
2/2 Tbh I feel like he’s a bit underrated? Like, okay, everyone knows his classics but there’s not so much attention being paid to his lyrics. And I never see my mutuals talking about him on here, so I’m really glad to discover that you’re actually a fan!
YOU. ARE. SO. RIGHT! Sam and Dean rolling through those rust belt towns with nothing but the jackets on their back and a shotgun in the trunk, all the baggage on their backs but armed with a cocky smile and the naive hope that everything’s gonna turn out alright.
Well now, I ain’t no hero, that’s understoodAll the redemption I can offer, girl, is beneath this dirty hoodWith a chance to make it good somehowHey, what else can we do now?Except roll down the window and let the wind blow back your hairWell, the night’s busting open, these two lanes will take us anywhere
(i know you’re singing along in you’re head right now)
and im 100% there with you on the wincest–the aching, the pain, the longing for something beautiful just beyond your fingertips. and then there’s born to run which is just 100% sam/dean
and idk about the rest of the world, maybe they think he’s too working class, too country, too whatever. but I live in jersey and here Springsteen is a living legend ✌️ I live one town over from his ranch and 15 minutes from the Stone Pony where he rose to fame on the shore, and where he still shows up today and plays with whoever is on stage. he puts on a baseball cap and walks around asbury park eating at the local dive bars, and people just sort of nod and let him be.
he’s a true artist. the last show i went to of his he broke his own north american record playing for 4 hours and 15 minutes (straight). he’s like 70 something and he still crowd surfs! i also had the honor of seeing his one man show on broadway which is now a netflix special.
I love the man and his music. there’s just nobody else like the boss ❤️
