13 | | Bruce Springsteen Western Stars
There Goes My Miracle: This song is the only time on the album that the bombastic nature of the songs goes too far, it falls in to cheesiness at times, but still a good tune |
12 | | Bruce Springsteen Western Stars
Hitch Hikin': This has grown on me, but still feels like a bit of a weak opener. It's a bit generic in themes, although that's likely intentional |
11 | | Bruce Springsteen Western Stars
Drive Fast (The Stuntman): Great lyrics, but this one hasn't fully caught me yet |
10 | | Bruce Springsteen Western Stars
Stones: The lyrics in the chorus in this one are kind of a stretch, but this one is a grooving tune despite that |
9 | | Bruce Springsteen Western Stars
Sundown: Mixed feelings about this one, sometimes it seems like one of the album's lesser tunes, sometimes it seems like a timeless old Nashville country classic |
8 | | Bruce Springsteen Western Stars
Sleepy Joe's Cafe: One of the simpler tunes, but a worthy good time rock song |
7 | | Bruce Springsteen Western Stars
Somewhere North Of Nashville: Definitely sticks out like a sore thumb, much more ragged and stripped down than the other tracks, but excellent lyrics |
6 | | Bruce Springsteen Western Stars
The Wayfarer: This one's grown on me a ton, I didn't like it much, but it's really an earworm |

Chasin' Wild Horses: This is a slow-burner, but it hits the spot nicely |
