The first Lantern Fishworks post of the year! "Atlantic City"? Really? Gloomy at first listen, maybe, but there's something ultimately uplifting about this song. I have often been brought to tears by Springsteen's performance.Also, it's one of the best videos ever assembled. (I couldn't embed the video so click the photo get get to it.)

best part of that song is when he sorta mumbles 'maybe' before the 'everything dies' chorus. i always wonder if that was a mistake but it's so haunting. like he can't even be sure of that. possibly the most beautiful song ever written. one of the reasons i love music so much. thanks for posting that.
