On Tuesday, singer and songwriter Bruce Springsteen,celebrated the 40th anniversary of his hit album, Born to Run.
Born to Run was Bruce Springsteen's third studio album and was released on August 25, 1975. Even Bruce Springsteen himself remembered the efforts he exerted on the album and he posted it on his website.
Springsteen stated, "Forty years ago, I was hustling with the E Street Band to Providence, Rhode Island for the first show of the 'Born to Run' tour. That morning, we'd just completed the last of the mixes in New York, and exhausted but thankful to be out of the studio, we headed north, ready - we thought - for whatever this music was going to bring us," Springsteen also wrote, "It brought us you and a conversation that continues to this day."
The Governor of New Jersey Chris Christie reminisced his own experience with Born to Run , as a 12 year old pitcher on his Little League All-Star team.
Governor Chris Christie stated on his Twitter account, "The music was exciting, dramatic and exhilarating," Governor Christie also stated, "As a kid from Jersey it spoke to me. Bruce wrote about the places and the people I knew. He wrote about our hopes and frustrations. He gave voice to suburban kids like me who were filled with dreams and doubts. He was one of us."
Governor Christie even called Bruce Springsteen's Born to Run album as his "desert island disc" and "the most powerful rock album of my lifetime."
The governor contemplated himself as one of Springsteen's biggest fans, and Governor Christie shed tears when Bruce Springsteen hugged him at a benefit concert for Superstorm Sandy victims in 2012.
