Bruce Springsteen - Iceman Lyrics

Veo que llegó la paloma mensajera....!!
Los amigos hay que saber escogerlos........ Feria de ....
Mientras machacaban a los demás , todo eran risas y bromas.
Ahora todo cambió.!

Reminiscent of Badlands.

I have to say I've listened to Bruce praying all my life I grew up with him and he still has good songs even today he is a 100% USA man

This song features some of the best lyrics Bruce ever wrote. One of the few outtakes that would've fit on Darkness. "We'll take the midnight road, right to the devil's door, and even the white angels of Eden, with their flaming swords, won't be able to stop us from hitting town in this dirty old Ford." One of the greatest set of words in the history of pop music. Stunning.

Rephaim

Sounds like Racing in the Street.

Meeting Across the River too. Basically a fusion of his best piano based songs and makes this even better

beautiful

I heard this song for the very first time a long time ago when the "In the Land of Women" movie was being played on broadcast TV in México, but it was the only part I could watch. I immediately felt the song touching my soul. I remember being dumped by an ex-girlfriend I profoundly loved and the first thing I did after that moment was to play this song, get on the bus and start crying. Every time I listen to this song it hurts a little bit.

I've always wanted to watch the whole "In the Land of Women" movie with my current girlfriend. Unfortunately, she speaks little English so it's almost impossible for her to understand a movie without subtitles in Spanish. If someone knows where to get it with Spanish captions, I would be very grateful. Greetings from México!

the song so great, you can't listen to it just once.

Beautiful song...i love it.... But it was NOT on the album  "Magic"... (Picture).. It was recorded in 1977...and first released on " Tracks "...many years later...  ;D

Bruce played this in Paris yesterday, 7/13/16.

And made me cry, that old motherfucker.

That's welcome news. I'll be there Auckland 2/25/17. That ticket's my most prized possession.

Dear World,

Please don't tear yourself apart for the next few months.

Yours sincerely,
Blue

Apparently Bruce had even forgotten ever written this when he suddenly stumbled upon it during the production of Tracks. I know people who'd give an arm and a leg to be able to write anything like it, and he just ups and forgets about it. What a man.

Amo esta canción.

check my channel if ya can, i f'n love this song...

in response to guyfawkes6 you are so right! It does sound like Us against the World,
by Coldplay I love this song

Sounds soooo much like "Us Against the World" by Coldplay.... 0.o

its an offence against music that this song has only 32000 likes :/

TOTALLY AGREE! Can't imagine people can't hear the heartache, heartbreak and destitute of a lost soul. The tears well up, but the fight begins and you just know that it will win, they will win.

Ever been to Devil's door. I have, me and Brucey live in the same area. ;p

To evoke thought, emotion and ideas, true art. I for have always and will always love Bruce.

For all those weirdos who think that Bruce can't sing...just listen to this phenomenal vocal performance. Great song as well.

When I hit the edge of this town in my dirty old Ford, I went around a curve and hit a cow. Maybe this town is sleepy and it doesn't budge, I know for sure that cow didn't budge. If I had been speeding, there would have been a whole different outcome. The waiting and the search almost collided with one another.

Sleepy town ain't got the guts to budge
Baby this emptiness has already been judged...oh Bruce.

heard this in the land of women and right away it made me cry
so much emotion in one song. <3

Every lyric in this tune is beyond a poetic fiasco.

It's a a tune you break down & cry 2 :( :)

ouaaaah! it's so beautiful....

springsteen' fan

i tried responding to your last message about sugarland but it said i had to be a friend to send it,so i invited you to become friends.

Yeeeeaaah so beautiful ... In the Land Of Women !

for your info i shelled out seventy bucks to buy tracks back in '98,thats the box set it was released on,if i don't want to pay for it again to put it on my mp3 player your just gonna have to deal with it.

Its people like you that have to steal what you should buy! BUT NO!!! Your helping destroy what once was the artists commodity now has become a Barracuda feeding of free(thievery) frenzy!

i got it on limewire.

darkness sessions 1977 best bruce springsteen stuff!

Its on Itunes type Bruce Springsteen Iceman and and its there to buy!

If you really meant that you could have found it anywhere including itunes and the springsteens official site.

You cant find it anywhere to download. So put your cheap hands down in your pockets and pay for the CD!

any one knows the tabs of this song

I love this song with every beat of my heart this song move's me so much the lyric's are up there with the great man's best!!This song blow's me away!!

what exactly is "singing like bruce"? his style and approach has changed several times over the years...how can a person sing, but not sing like themselves?? you may not like his new style, but he still sings like him...just him NOW and not how he did THEN.

What an incredible song. I was floored when I listened to Tracks, it's scary how great an artist Bruce is when songs like this don't make it on his albums.

Remember listening to this years ago and my tape copy had a couple of bad drop outs in it. Now we just need a Tracks II with Evacuation of the West, Preacher's Daughter and the full band version of The Promise.

vintage bruce

One of Bruce's most stunning studio outtakes, from his 1977 sessions for Darkness On The Edge Of Town. It was issued in 1998 on Tracks, his superb, 4xCD box set of outtakes. "But, baby, they didn't know that I was born dead."
