Music I Like: Dancing in the Dark - Bruce Springsteen


This song is so exuberant I can't help but grin when I hear it. And then I feel incredibly ancient when I realize how young Bruce Springsteen and Courtney Cox look in the video.

Love this song and the video. I have wondered whether Courtney Cox's act was planned. She looks genuinely surprised, though. I also like his "Streets of Philadelphia."

I saw him in concert at The Cotton Bowl around 1985 and when he sang this song he picked a little girl out of the audience and carried her on stage to dance with him.

It looks to me like the scenes with Courtney Cox were shot separately from the main concert, so my hunch is that it all planned. It sure works well, though.

Certainly one of my very favorites.
I heard it was planned too.
