NME Reviews

Springsteen, Bruce : Sad eyes

Personally, I had a rather enjoyable foot spa while it was on.

As age adds another ring to his trunk, The Boss saunters back in reflective mood. Astonishingly, this single was produced by four (!!) different people, recorded by another and mixed by a sixth.
The
result of all this communal endeavour is another ballad in a 'Philadelphia' style. Cheesy but affecting, it's strictly
for the
more, ahem, mature NME reader. Personally, I had a rather
enjoyable
foot spa while it was on.
