Bruce Springsteen is giving away the first single from his forthcoming album 'Magic' as a free download.
The song 'Radio Nowhere' is a blatant stab at how bland music radio has become.The lyrics go:
I was trying to find my way home,
But all I heard was a drone.
Bouncin' off a satellite
Crushing the last long American night.
This is radio nowhere.
Is there anybody alive out there?
This is radio nowhere.
Is there anybody alive out there?
The song 'Radio Nowhere' is a blatant stab at how bland music
Springsteen is also bypassing the tradition record company model of releasing the single for sale before the album release. Instead, 'Radio Nowhere' is available for free.
