Born to Run banlieuses

Una de las cosas divertidas de los anacronismos y de los medios es ver a sesudos diarios y televisiones celebrando los 30 años de Born to Run mientras se interrogaban sobre la revuelta de los suburbios franceses.
¿Alguien habrá leído las letras de Bruce Springsteen, el Boss?
There were ghosts in the eyes
Of all the boys you sent away
They haunt this dusty beach road
In the skeleton frames of burned out Chevrolets

Thunder Road. 1975
In the day we sweat it out in the streets of a runaway American dream
At night we ride through mansions of glory in suicide machines

Born to Run. 1975
We've got God on our side
We're just trying to survive
What if what you do to survive
Kills the things you love
Fear's a powerful thing

Devils and Dust. 2005
30 años son poca cosa para la comprensión.
