What is the best Bruce Springsteen song of the 80s?

I voted for other as I think "Tougher Than The Rest" is his best, but I'm not really a fan, I just liek a few of his songs.

I voted for "Dancing In the Dark", but it's actually a tie with "Glory Days", it was just too tough to pick one! :thumb:

I voted for the underated "Brilliant Disguise". I love the haunting lyrics and the catchy melody... :)

I had a hard time choosing, I'm a huge Bruce Springsteen fan. :D I went with "Hungry Heart" though.

I voted for Other. My favorite Springsteen song is "Downbound Train" off "Born in the USA".

Not too tough for me this time...definitely 'Dancing in the Dark' :cool:

Tough question, VERY tough, but went with Hungry Heart!:cool:

Not a big fan but do enjoy some of his songs, voted for "pink cadillac".

Not voting, just here to pop a Q.

Didn't bruce also make a tune named WAR ?

This was hard because I like Bruce a lot. I went with "Brilliant disguise"

I voted for "Dancing In The Dark".

I'm not a big Springsteen fan either, but for me "I'm on Fire" stands out well above the rest. My only complaint is it's too darn short!

How could you forget "Born To Run"? Definitely my favorite Springsteen song of all-time! I really like Bruce, he is an amazing songwriter and he is from Jersey! :thumb: :D From the list, I like "Dancing In The Dark" and "Hungry Heart". :)

Born In The USA :)

It was a tough choice but I wet with "Hungry Heart"

80sSmurf,

Yes, Bruce did a remake of Edwin Starr's song "War". It was on his 1986 live box set.

i agree with the kiwi on that one:eek:

My vote went to Pink Cadillac. It makes for a good listening as well as a good traveling song:)

I'm not that big of a fan but I do like a few of his songs.It was hard choosing between Born In The USA and Glory Days but I went with Born In The USA but I could have easily picked Glory Days.

'Dancing In The Dark' for me - an all time classic by The Boss

"I'm on fire" it was way too short.

Because "Cover Me" was not an option, had to go with "Glory Days".
Personally, I think this (http://www.cdnow.com/from=sr-181894/cgi-bin/mserver/SID=1770539150/pagename=/RP/CDN/FIND/album.html/artistid=SPRINGSTEEN*BRUCE/itemid=317554) was the biggest album of 1984.
That along with Bryan Adam's "Reckless".

I voted for Dancing In The Dark.

From the songs listed I went with " Hungry Heart" from the album "The River". By far His best album of the 1980s.

Dancing In the Dark!!!

Hungry Heart.....*growl* :D

I'm On Fire - just love this one :)

I voted for "Born in the USA."

Glory Days

I voted for Glory Days too. Born to Run is my fav. song from him but I don't know if it's from the 80s or not.:)

Man, what a hard choice!

I went with "Glory Days"

'Brilliant Disguise'

the Video for it was very cool :thumb:

The Boss has SO many great songs but I went with "I'm On Fire"! :thumb:
Liked the video too! My only gripe would be that the song is too short!
