590 - Bruce Springsteen Dancing in the Dark 1984

"Dancing in the Dark" is a 1984 song. Adding up-tempo synthesizer riffs and some syncopation to his sound for the first time, it became Bruce´s biggest hit and was the lead-off track on the album "Born in the U.S.A.". Echoing the music video, the song's outro would be extended while Springsteen searched the front rows of the audience for a (usually cute young) woman to pull up onstage and dance with. This became quite the prize for the female faithful, and considerable jostling for position with stage security and each other could take place. Once up, some fans danced well, others wanted hugs more than steps, and some just froze.
