WATCH VIDEO FOR "ROCKY GROUND" BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN AND THE E STREET BAND

Bruce Springsteens song "Rocky Ground" from the Wrecking Ball album will be released as a single today.

As previously reported, track 9 on the Wrecking Ball album "Rocky Ground" showcases a never heard before direction for the Boss.

Gospel singer Michelle Moore gives the song spirituality and soul with the refrain " We've been walking/ travelling over  rocky ground" repeated throughout and surprisingly for a Springsteen song performs a rap that actually works well within the context of the production (drum loops, yes drum loops along with an
archival sound recording) and song writing.

If you are a Springsteen fan don't let the aforementioned rap and drum loops scare you off this one. "Rocky Ground" is beautifully crafted. Checkout the official video that accompanies the single release.
