In 1973, Springsteen released his first two albums, Greetings from Asbury Park, N.J. and The Wild, the Innocent & the E Street Shuffle, neither of which earned him a large audience. He changed his style and reached worldwide popularity with Born to Run in 1975. It was followed by Darkness on the Edge of Town (1978) and The River (1980), which topped the US Billboard 200 chart. After the solo recording, Nebraska (1982), he reunited with the E Street Band for Born in the U.S.A. (1984), his most commercially successful album and one of the best-selling albums of all time. Seven of its singles reached the Top Ten of the Billboard Hot 100, including the title track. Springsteen recorded his next three albums, Tunnel of Love (1987), Human Touch (1992), and Lucky Town (1992) using mostly session musicians. He reassembled the E Street Band for 1995's Greatest Hits, then recorded the sparse acoustic The Ghost of Tom Joad, followed by the EP Blood Brothers (1996), his last release of the decade.
Springsteen dedicated his 2002 album The Rising to the victims of the September 11 attacks. He released two more folk albums, Devils & Dust (2005) and We Shall Overcome: The Seeger Sessions (2006), followed by two more albums with the E Street Band: Magic (2007) and Working on a Dream (2009). The next two, Wrecking Ball (2012) and High Hopes (2014), topped album charts worldwide. His latest releases include the solo Western Stars (2019), the E Street Band-featuring Letter to You (2020) and a solo cover album Only the Strong Survive (2022). When Letter to You went to No.2 in the US, Springsteen became the first artist to score a Top Five hit across six consecutive decades.
Among the album era's prominent acts, Springsteen has sold more than 140 million records worldwide and more than 71 million in the United States, making him one of the world's best-selling music artists. He has earned numerous awards for his work, including 20 Grammy Awards, two Golden Globes, an Academy Award, and a Special Tony Award (for Springsteen on Broadway). Springsteen was inducted into both the Songwriters Hall of Fame and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1999, received the Kennedy Center Honors in 2009, named MusiCares person of the year in 2013, and awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom by President Barack Obama in 2016. He ranked 23rd on Rolling Stone's list of the Greatest Artists of All Time, which described him as being "the embodiment of rock & roll".

Around And Around
Bruce Springsteen Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
a goin' 'round and round
Yeah reelin' and a rockin' what a crazy sound
Well they never stopped rockin' till the moon went down
Oh it sounds so sweet I gotta take me a chance
Rose out of my seat just had to dance
Started movin' my feet well a clappin' my hands
Rockin' Going 'Round and around
Yeah reelin' and a rockin' what a crazy sound
A well they never stopped rockin' till the moon went down
Twelve o'clock
Well the place as packed
Front doors was locked
Well the place was packed
When the police knocked
Both doors flew back
But they kept on a ....
Oh they kept on a....
The lyrics of Bruce Springsteen's "Around and Around" describe a wild party where the attendees are dancing and enjoying the music to the point where they can't stop. The lyrics state that the joint, which most likely refers to a club or venue, was "rockin'" and "goin' 'round and round." The phrase "reelin' and a rockin'" emphasizes how much the people were enjoying themselves, and the line "Well they never stopped rockin' till the moon went down" suggests that the party was a late-night affair. The lyrics also describe the singer's own experience at the party, with the phrase "Oh it sounds so sweet I gotta take me a chance" implying that he was initially hesitant to dance but eventually gave in to the music. The final lines of the song describe the arrival of the police, who made everyone leave the venue.
Despite its apparent simplicity, "Around and Around" is actually a cover of a Chuck Berry song of the same name. Berry's original version was released in 1958, and it became one of his best-known hits. Springsteen's cover was recorded in 1977 during his sessions for the "Darkness on the Edge of Town" album, but it was ultimately left off the final tracklisting. Instead, it was released as a B-side to the single "The Promised Land." The song has remained a fan favorite, however, and is often included in Springsteen's live setlists.

"暗闇の中でのダンス"
私は夕方に起きます
そして、私は何も言うことはありません
朝家に帰ります
同じ気持ちで寝ます
疲れただけじゃない
男私はただ疲れていて、自分自身に退屈しています
Hey there baby 少しだけ助けてあげられるよ
火を起こすことはできません
火花がないと火を起こすことはできません
この銃はレンタル用です
暗闇の中でただ踊っていても
メッセージはより明確になります
ラジオがオンになっていて、私は自分の場所を移動しています。
鏡で自分の姿を確認する
服も髪も顔も変えたい
どうにもならない男
私はこのようなダンプに住んでいます
どこかで何かが起こっている
ベイビー、そこにいることを知っているだけ
火を起こすことができない
火花がなければ火を起こすことはできない
この銃はレンタル用です
暗闇の中でただ踊っていても
あなたは年を取ると座って
冗談があります、ここのどこかで、それは私にあります
この世界を肩から振り払う
歌詞の意味: 赤ちゃんに来てください。
この街の通りにいて
そして、彼らはあなたをうまく切り刻むでしょう
彼らはあなたが空腹のままでなければならないと言います
Hey baby 今夜はもうお腹が空くよ
私はいくつかのアクションのために死にます
この本を書こうとしてここに座っているのはもううんざりだ
愛のリアクションが欲しい
さあ、ベイビーギミー一目だけ
傷ついた心に泣いて座って火を起こすことはできない
この銃はレンタル用です
暗闇の中でただ踊っていても
あなたの小さな世界が崩壊することを心配して火を起こすことはできません
この銃はレンタル用です
暗闇の中でただ踊っていても
暗闇の中でただ踊っていても
暗闇の中でただ踊っていても
