Bruce Springsteen's Halftime Show Set List - Name it! - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

TJL · 01-31-2009, 11:35 PM

Well folks, the Superbowl is here once again, and it's time to talk about the most important part of the game - the halftime show.

As you know, Bruce Springsteen, aka The Boss will be performing, so I want you to tell me what you think Bossman and the E Streeters will be playing.

I'm thinking there will be four songs, and I did read that he's going to to include one new song in the performance, which makes the guessing harder.

I've been giving this some thought, so here's my list:

Glory Days
Thunder Road
New song (probably Working On A Dream)
Badlands

Let me see yours.

Your list, that is. Pervert.

Born in the USA
The Wrestler
Dancing In the Dark
Born to Run

I'm really looking forward to Bruce's Halftime performnce since, sadly, I am not going to be able to see him on his up coming tour. Fate always seems to get in the way of me seeing Bruce. Though I was lucky enough to see him on the Magic your in '07.

Best Halftime Show EVER!

Bruce and the boys were incredible! They should perform every halftime show from now on.

I loved it when Bruce slid into the camera.

That was great!

My roommate (who is a certified Springsteen expert) was the only person to pick every song in the set. I scratched my head when he chose 10th Avenue Freeze Out as the opener, but he nailed it.

Although he didn't get the order right, he got two of four correct, so he wins this year. Nice work.

I thought the show was great!! Bruce looked good, too. When he bent back at the mike stand, I thought "That man is limber!!" And as mentioned before, when he slid into the camera! Also, the security in front of the stage really had their work cut out for them!!

It was a good performance, but I'd never heard of any of those songs before. lol

That's a bit shocking that you haven't heard either Born To Run or Glory Days.

Yeah, really!!!

Nighthawk76 · 02-02-2009, 03:14 PM

Great performance! Seeing Bruce up on stage, and the amount of energy he puts forth, it is almost impossible to believe that he will be 60 in September.

Yeah, but "Born To Run" and "Glory Days" are both songs that are on the radio quite a bit. Bruce has never been a singles artist, but some songs like "Born to Run", "Hungry Heart", "Dancing in the Dark", "Glory Days" and "Born in the USA" get tons of airplay.

Exactly! And I've even heard his earlier stuff (from the 70s) played in the grocery store now! You can't MISS Springsteen......it's almost like saying you've never heard of the ditty "Happy Birthday"!!

I like that he was more of my generation - afterall, we should be the target generation for the Superbowl. I didn't even watch it the year Janet Jackson and Timberlake was on.

Although, for a minute there when the Boss drove his crotch into the camera, I thought we might be getting close to a wardrobe malfunction repeat!

Yup - best halftime show I've ever seen!

I know its weird how I've never heard almost any of his songs for how popular he is. I've only heard "Born in the USA." Even though I usually only listen to Pop or RnB radio, I still know a lot of older rock songs....
