MUSIC MONDAY - MORE SPRINGSTEIN
BECAUSE THE NIGHT
This was part of his latest concert set. He wrote it but was convinced to turn it over to Patti Smythe. While the song was not originally about queer love, it certainly can be.
In this time of fascism, ALL queer love is resistance.
Resist.
Patty Smythe:
Bruce Springstein:
LOVE BROADLY AS THE NAZIS WANT TO STOP!
NO MERCY FOR FASCISTS!
15 ROUNDS
I DIDN’T HEAR NO BELL!
TRANS LIVES MATTER!
DEFEND THE TRUTH!
NEVER AGAIN IS NOW!
QUEER LOVE MATTERS!
FIGHT WHITE SUPREMACY!
I didn’t know he wrote this song! It’s one of my favorites. I’ll listen to his version now. And I absolutely see it as a queer love song. ❤️
