Born in the USA was seemingly written to be a radio hit. Haven't read that from Bruce or anything, but it certainly plays that way. Nothing special about it at all, to me.

Thunder Road is a tremendous song and a top 5 Bruce song for most people.

The more appropriate song debate would be Thunder Road or Born to Run.

Thunder Road was better.

Born in the USA was awful.

It actually wasn't, see post above... It was reworked to fit in with the BITUSA album though, which was more of an attempt at getting radio play..

I dont think any song with those lyrics, would be purposefully written with "hit" in mind.. not in Reagan's America..
