Greatest Springsteen Song Ever?

Gets my vote…your thoughts?

I went Friday night with fellow scribes Tara Sullivan of the Bergen Record and Jane McManus, formerly of Gannett Westchester, and Bruce played all of “Darkness on the Edge of Town,” which features this heart-wrenching ditty.

I may have to go back Thursday night to hear “Born to Run,” start to finish.
