'Feel Like a Number' is a frickin' awesome piece of writing about someone screaming to be recognized as an individual. Always turn that one up to 11!!
"'Dear Sir' letters keep coming in the mail..." "Feel like just another spoke in a great big wheel, like a tiny blade of grass in a great big field..."

Never appreciated Like A Rock until I really listened to the lyrics. Sad song at least to me. Incredible songwriter.

Bruce is a great songwriter, but to me a lot of his vibe is life is a grind, you work your ass off, the boss is an ass, enjoy the time racing cars or hanging with friends, and boy if feels great to unsnap that girl's jeans under the boardwalk with a nice buzz on. All solid, well founded, blue collar sentiments.
Seger seems comfortable going to much darker place of existential despair. Last edited by Snapolit1; 01-21-2024 at 01:50 PM. |

Now some guys they just give up living And start dying little by little, piece by piece Some guys come home from work and wash up And go racin' in the street She sits on the porch of her daddy's house But all her pretty dreams are torn She stares off alone into the night With the eyes of one who hates for just being born

Racing in the Streets is prob my absolute favorite Bruce song.
But racing in the streets is what gives his life value. He's not one of those other dudes just sitting around waiting to die. I know he has some pretty dark stuff too. The Rising is pretty dark. You're Missing is simply devastating. Quote:
