Frases de Bruce Springsteen

página 4

“Tengo la sensación de que, la noche en que miras a tu público y no te ves a ti mismo, y la noche en que el público te mira y no se ve reflejado en ti, es que todo ha terminado.”

“Si pudiera coger un simple momento con las manos.”

“A veces vuelvo a leer mis libros de la escuela y me doy cuenta de que no tienen ningún contacto con la vida real, no enseñan nada de lo que vas a necesitar en la vida. A los ocho años, cuando escuché por primera vez a los Drifters por la radio, descubrí que había más verdad en una sola canción que en todo lo que me habían enseñado en la escuela. Esto es lo que intento decirle a la gente: buscad vuestras propias raíces y sed responsables de vuestras vidas.”

“El rock llegó a mí cuando parecía que no había escapatoria posible y abrió ante mí un mundo de posibilidades.”

“La familia aporta más flexibilidad emocional y te permite llevarte bien con la vida de otra gente.”

“[ Bono ] es uno de los pocos músicos que proyectan su fe y sus ideales hacia el mundo real, de una manera fiel a las implicaciones iniciales del rock de libertad, de conexión, de posibilidad de construir algo mejor.”

“La amistad te impide resbalar al abismo.”

“La fe es esencial, y también lo es la duda. No se va a ninguna parte con sólo una de estas dos cosas.”

“Aprendimos más en tres minutos de grabación, cariño, de lo que jamás aprendimos en la escuela.”

“Sin Bob, los Beatles no habrían hecho el Sargent Pepper, los Sex Pistols no habrían hecho God Save the Queen y U2 no habría hecho Pride (in the Name of Love).”

“Tend to your flock or they will stray.
We’ll be called for our service come judgment day.
Before we cross that river wide,
The blood on our hands will come back on us twice.”

“Sometimes it's like someone took a knife baby, edgy and dull
And cut a six-inch valley through the middle of my soul.At night I wake up with the sheets soaking wet
And a freight train running through the middle of my head.
Only you can cool my desire.
I'm on fire.”

“Hey what else can we do now?
Except roll down the window
And let the wind blow back your hair.
Well the night's busting open,
These two lanes will take us anywhere.
We got one last chance to make it real,
To trade in these wings on some wheels.
Climb in back, heaven's waiting on down the tracks.
Oh come take my hand,
We're riding out tonight to case the promised land.
Oh Thunder Road, oh Thunder Road.
Thunder Road.”

“My father said "Son, we're lucky in this town.
It's a beautiful place to be born.
It just wraps its arms around you.
Nobody crowds you, nobody goes it alone.
That you know flag flying over the courthouse
Means certain things are set in stone:
Who we are, what we'll do and what we won't."”

“Poor man want to be rich
Rich man want to be king
And a king ain't satisfied
Till he rules everything.
I want to go out tonight
I want to find out what I got.”

“Tonight our bed is cold;
I'm lost in the darkness of our love.
God have mercy on the man
Who doubts what he's sure of.”

“I been knocking on the door that holds the throne.
I been looking for the map that leads me home.
I been stumbling on good hearts turned to stone.
The road of good intentions has gone dry as a bone.
We take care of our own.
We take care of our own.
Wherever this flag’s flown,
We take care of our own.”

“In the Bible Cain slew Abel and East of Eden he was cast.
You're born into this life paying for the sins of somebody else's past.
Daddy worked his whole life for nothing but the pain.
Now he walks these empty rooms looking for something to blame.
You inherit the sins, you inherit the flames.
Adam raised a Cain.”

“Come on, rise up! Come on, rise up!”

“Cheap romance, it's all just a crutch.
You don't want nothin' that anybody can touch.
You're so afraid of being somebody's fool,
Not walkin' tough baby, not walkin' cool.
You walk cool, but darlin', can you walk the line?
And face the ties that bind.
The ties that bind,
Now you can't break the ties that bind.”

“This music is forever for me. It's the stage thing, that rush moment that you live for. It never lasts, but that's what you live for.”
