Any time a song from Born to Run comes on, I stop and listen to it. Every cut from this album is pure and you could make a case for being one of the greatest songs of all time. Bruce brilliantly goes between sweeping and understated. The matters discussed in this album are so related; it's really about growing up.

Writing this I'm wondering why I don't have this higher. One day a child is suddenly thrust into adulthood with no real idea of what he's doing. The easiest alternative is to run away.

You have a lot of classics. I respect them but however, they are not for me. BTW KOB I added because it is the best jazz I have ever heard, not because it is the most well known, I don't listen to music because it is well known, I listen to music because I really like it.
