Bruce Springsteen

In April 1999, Bruce Springsteen was riding high on the success of his album 'The Ghost of Tom Joad,' which had been released a few months prior in November 1997. This stripped-down, folk-infused record showcased a more introspective side of Springsteen, focusing on themes of social justice and personal struggle. The live performance of 'Two Hearts' in Assago was special, not just for the song itself—originally from the 1980 album 'The River'—but also for its nostalgic resonance during the concert. Springsteen's ability to engage with his audience was apparent, especially as he expressed gratitude for their support. This era marked a notable transition, as he blended his classic rock roots with storytelling that felt urgent and relevant, reflecting the political climate of the time.
