If it’s the long time choice of preference of millions of fans, if every time you ask What’s your favourite song? the ultimate answer is always Ok I like them all but if I have to really choose, well, in THAT case…
If in every Springsteen show around the world, everybody and I mean EVERYBODY sing it with him word by word, even the refrain (by all means, it does not even exist, a refrain in this song) and those final notes ending on na na na naaaa, there is a reason. Everyone of us has his o her reason, and we all have it in Thunder Road.
