A few blogs ago I mentioned that I just discovered a ton of Bruce Springsteen videos on YouTube (yes, I do live in a cave). So today I signed up for YouTube using my Google account and did a quick search for some Bruce videos. I created a playlist which contains, right now, 15 videos, and as I write this, I am listening to “If I should fall behind.” So if I want, I can watch the video, or if not, I can just hear the songs playing in the background. (I hit “play all” so they just start one after another.) The challenge, of course, is deciding which ones to add from the tons available (some songs have 12 versions to pick from). I also like to read people’s comments, some as current as an hour before, some in a different language, a few with political overtones. But most express a very passionate devotion to their man. I understand!! (P.S. Just try to watch his version of “Twist & Shout” without tapping your toes, smiling and maybe even throwing your arms in the air.)
