Tune In to The Good Wife on Jan 12 for New Springsteen Music


Rolling Stone reports today that on January 12 (two days before the release of High Hopes), a new episode of CBS' drama The Good Wife will include three tracks from Bruce's new album. The songs will be "High Hopes", "Hunter of Invisible Game", and the new version of "The Ghost of Tom Joad". In addition, CBS.com will stream the new album in its entirety beginning this Sunday, January 5.

This reminds me of when another CBS drama, Cold Case, aired an episode entitled "8 Years" featuring nine different Springsteen songs. I didn't saw the episode, and sadly it isn't available for easy streaming online. I've never seen an episode of The Good Wife before, but definitely plan to tune in to see how the new songs are integrated. Bravo CBS!

Springsteen Links: Rolling Stone's 15 Insanely Great Bruce Springsteen Songs You've Never Heard


If you're ready to stop what you’re doing and put everything on hold for two hours, I strongly encourage you to visit Rolling Stone's list of 15 Insanely Great Springsteen Songs You’ve Never Heard. Rolling Stone has written several great Springsteen articles lately and this piece is no exception.

We've previously covered a few of the songs listed here – "The Klansman," "Lonely Night in the Park," "Child Bride" – but there are some real gems here that I had never heard before. I'm particularly enamored of “Janey Needs a Shooter” and “Tokyo.”

This list goes to show, just when you think you’ve heard every Springsteen song, the man can still surprise you.

How many of these have you heard before? And what’s your favorite?
