Fever Chapter #6

While reading this chapter, Bruce Springsteen caught my attention.  I think it is really interesting that he is the only American rock star that gets compared to Elvis.  Springsteen got inspired by many people such as, Presley to Phil Spector, girl groups to Dylan, R&B covers to frat rock.  In addition, his concerts were four and half hours long.  The part that was REALLY interesting to me was that Springsteen would shuffle his songs often.  This means that he would change the tone of each song to make it have a different emotional tone.  This helped not get the fans bored of listening to the same songs every night.  Last but not least, I would like to talk about how Springsteen was able to gain fans by singing romantic songs.  Women from that era and even from today's society love music that say sweet things and not music that puts them down(make them feel less powerful) like the music Dylan would sing.
