Our Top 100 Bruce Springsteen songs list presents 100 of our favorite Springsteen songs from his whole career. Along with The Beatles, Elton John and Led Zeppelin, Bruce Springsteen is one of the most written about artists on classicrockhistory.com. How could he not be? In the story of Classic Rock, Bruce Springsteen stands as a giant, being one of the most influential songwriters of the past 50 years. Of course, he is also known as being one of the most exciting performers to ever grace the concert stage. In the past two decades, he has also caused controversy among many of his fans for his political views, but that’s what makes great artists. Men and women of passion who write from the heart and stand by what they believe in. While many of his contemporaries have long stopped releasing new music, Bruce Springsteen has continued to release original music over a 50 year career. Of course that makes picking even 100 songs difficult to choose from. But, it sure is fun…….
Of course, the list is heavily represented by the first six albums. We also included so many of the great b sides that were eventually released on the various compilation and box set Springsteen released.
