Oltre quarant’anni di carriera, 429 canzoni pubblicate e 18 album di inediti all’attivo. Sono i numeri di Bruce Springsteen (foto di manu_gt500), uno dei più grandi artisti della storia del rock. Sul “Boss” sono stati scritti fiumi di parole, ma forse mai nessuno aveva recensito ogni suo singolo brano (e album), assegnandogli un voto e inserendolo in un’apposita classifica.Notizia di proprietà della testata giornalistica © Barinedita (vietata la riproduzione)

Ci abbiamo provato noi (così come fatto per i Beatles e i Dire Straits), seguendo una scala di valori che va dal “capolavoro assoluto” al 4.  Ed ecco il risultato.Notizia di proprietà della testata giornalistica © Barinedita (vietata la riproduzione)

*: tutti i brani nella lista sono di Springsteen, tranne Follow That Dream (di Fred Wise e Ben Weisman). Ma la versione di Bruce può essere definita “un’altra canzone” rispetto all’originale: diversa nella melodia, negli arrangiamenti e persino con cambiamenti nel testo rispetto a quella cantata da Elvis Presley nel 1962.

• Nicola Velluso - Fra i capolavori ci stava bene, a mio parere, anche Nebraska, l'album.
• Gianni - La posizione di Yhe Wish è ingiusta :-(
• Luciana - Buonasera, le posizioni di radio nowhere e my lucky day secondo il punto di vista hanno un punteggio troppo basso, per me dovrebbero avere 8,5. Hanno una musicalità eccezionale e un impatto veramente ritmico, se vuole orecchiabile e benefico, almeno per me....:-)
• jerrydrake - Jungleland capolavoro assoluto. For you e Blinded by the light molto sottovalutate.
