I just saw Bruce perform this in concert. He referred to Orwell-ian governments, and said "The song isn't about magic, it's about tricks." So he's talking about Bush's decisions and how they discourage questions about Iraq. "Leave everything you know and take everything you fear." |

I love everything about this song. The piano in the beginning is extremely powerful. The passion in Bruce's voice is indescribable. The lyrics are amazing. This has to be the best album of all time. I wish I could have been alive when this album was released. |

Mark said at a concert that it's about a lonely girl in high school. He said it was kinda different for them. The song really hit me when I heard it live, because I can relate to a lot of the lyrics. |

Bruce based this song on his sister and brother-in-law. About a couple marrying too young because of pregnancy, changed everything, and the narrator feels they've forgotten what used to be important and feels like his dreams will never come true. |

I think that when he says Born in the USA in the chorus, he is implying that though he was born in the US and served in the war, the country has not returned the favor. I would say it's more against the government, businesses, etc, than America as a whole. It's pretty funny that Ronald Reagan used this song for his election, when it definitely isn't a good choice. |

If you watch the music video for this song, it becomes pretty clear. Its about liking someone that's unavailable. Basically, Bruce is fixing this beautiful woman's car, who flashes her wedding ring and lives in a big house. He goes to her house to drop off the keys, and hesitates ringing the doorbell, before just leaving the keys in her mail drop and walking away sadly. There's nothing he can really do about the infatuation. I love this song!! |
