“born To run” is an exceptional song. ginawa ito ni springsteen nung 1974 kasama ang e-street band and it took them six months to record. six months to record just one song? packingsheet! kilala kasing obsessive compulsive perfectionist si the boss at kung ano anong mga special effects ang nilagay niya sa kantang ito – mayroong mga overdubs ng acoustic guitars, boses pa yata ng mga kabayong naglalampungan at kung ano ano pang mga instrumento. in fact, ang kantang ito ay classic example ng “wall of sound” style na ginawang popular ni phil spector. springsteen’s legendary dedication to his craft paid off dahil “born to run” is probably one of the best rock songs of all time. a masterpiece that still sounds fresh today as it was when it first came out exactly 30 years ago this year. besides the excellent production of the song, it’s the lyrics that really hits you. how can you fail with lines like this
Together Wendy we’ll live with the sadness
I’ll love you with all the madness in my soul
pag sinabi mo ito siguro sa gelpren mo eh baka bigla ka niyang ayain mag sex.
