Wrecking Ball

Bruce has released his 17 studio album ~ wow ~ 17 (that's how old my kid is) ~ and I LOVE it.
I will be the geek and list the songs:
1. We Take Care of Our Own
2. Easy Money
3. Shackled and Drawn
4. Jack of all Trades
5. Death to my Hometown
6. This Depression
7. Wrecking Ball
8. You've got it
9. Rocky Ground
10. Land of Hope and Dreams
11. We are Alive
12. Swallowed up
13. American Land

Land of Hope and Dreams has been a favorite of mine, nice to finally have a non-bootleg recording ~ and, being old, it's nice to hear American Land and have a chance to learn the lyrics...Dear I hear that beer flows through the faucets all night long...
The last few albums have taken me a while to find favorites and songs that are meaningful to me.  Not that I haven't liked the music, it just wasn't MINE right away, like Racing in the Streets is MINE.  But Jack of all Trades immediately spoke to me.  That's my husband.  That's my life.  Same with Rocky Ground.  I find it amazing that Bruce can put into song my thoughts and feelings.  Mike always sarcastically exclaims, "Bruce sure feels the plight of the working man..."  But for someone who doesn't have economic hardship, he sure understands some of the related feelings.
Can't wait for April 17!
