Bruce Springsteen random trivia

Paul Schrader asked Springsteen to write a title song for a movie he had written called "Born in the USA". After Springsteen wrote it, he liked the song so much, he used for his multi-platinum album of the same name instead. As a replacement, Springsteen wrote another song and that song title became the film's new title, Light of Day (1987). That is why Springsteen thanks Schrader in the liner notes of the album. His Oscar winning song "Streets of Philadelphia" from Philadelphia was ranked #68 on The American Film Institute's list of "The 100 Years of The Greatest Songs". One of Springsteen's most famous songs, "Thunder Road", took inspiration from the Robert Mitchum movie of the same name.
