Description
Winner of the 2018 Audie Award for Autobiography/Memoir
"Writing about yourself is a funny business.... But in a project like this, the writer has made one promise: to show the reader his mind. In these pages, I've tried to do this." (Bruce Springsteen, from the audio of Born to Run)
In 2009, Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band performed at the Super Bowl's halftime show. The experience was so exhilarating that Bruce decided to write about it. That's how this extraordinary autobiography began.
Over the past seven years, Bruce Springsteen has privately devoted himself to writing the story of his life, bringing to this audio the same honesty, humor, and originality found in his songs. He describes growing up Catholic in Freehold, New Jersey, amid the poetry, danger, and darkness that fueled his imagination, leading up to the moment he refers to as "The Big Bang": seeing Elvis Presley's debut on The Ed Sullivan Show. He vividly recounts his relentless drive to become a musician, his early days as a bar-band king in Asbury Park, and the rise of the E Street Band. With disarming candor, he also tells for the first time the story of the personal struggles that inspired his best work and shows us why the song "Born to Run" reveals more than we previously realized.
Born to Run will be revelatory for anyone who has ever enjoyed Bruce Springsteen, but this book is much more than a legendary rock star's memoir. This is a book for workers and dreamers, parents and children, lovers and loners, artists, freaks, or anyone who has ever wanted to be baptized in the holy river of rock and roll. Rarely has a performer told his own story with such force and sweep. Like many of his songs ("Thunder Road", "Badlands", "Darkness on the Edge of Town", "The River", "Born in the U.S.A.", "The Rising", and "The Ghost of Tom Joad", to name just a few), Bruce Springsteen's autobiography is written with the lyricism of a singular songwriter and the wisdom of a man who has thought deeply about his experiences.
Author bio: Bruce Springsteen has been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, the Songwriters Hall of Fame, and the New Jersey Hall of Fame. He is the recipient of 20 Grammy Awards, an Academy Award, and the Kennedy Center Honors. He lives in New Jersey with his family.

As one of the music world’s most iconic artists and the cofounder of the organizations ONE and (RED), Bono’s career has been written about extensively. But in Surrender, it’s Bono who picks up the pen, writing for the first time about his remarkable life and those he has shared it with. In his unique voice, Bono takes us from his early days growing up in Dublin, including the sudden loss of his mother when he was fourteen, to U2’s unlikely journey to become one of the world’s most influential rock bands, to his more than twenty years of activism.

"Unvarnished. Funny. Leaving no stone unturned"...So say the publishers about this audiobook I've written. What I say is that this is the story of my life, told as clear as a Texas sky and in the same rhythm that I lived it. It's a story of restlessness and the purity of the moment and living right. Of my childhood in Abbott, Texas, to the Pacific Northwest, from Nashville to Hawaii, and all the way back again. Of selling vacuum cleaners and encyclopedias while hosting radio shows and writing song after song, hoping to strike gold.

What story begins in a bedroom in suburban New Jersey in the early '60s, unfolds on some of the country's largest stages, and then ranges across the globe, demonstrating over and over again how rock and roll has the power to change the world for the better? This story. The first true heartbeat of Unrequited Infatuations is the moment when Stevie Van Zandt trades in his devotion to the Baptist religion for an obsession with rock and roll.

Bryan Cranston landed his first role at seven, when his father, a struggling actor and director, cast him in a United Way commercial. Soon Bryan was haunting the local movie theater, memorizing and reenacting favorite scenes with his older brother. Acting was clearly the boy's destiny - until one day his father disappeared. Suddenly destiny took a backseat to survival. Seeking something more stable, perhaps subconsciously trying to distance himself from his absent father, Cranston decided on a career in law enforcement.

The definitive, full-access story of the life and songs of Canada's legendary troubadour. Gordon Lightfoot’s name is synonymous with timeless songs about trains and shipwrecks, rivers and highways, lovers and loneliness. His music defined the folk-pop sound of the 1960s and ‘70s, topped charts and sold millions. He is unquestionably Canada’s greatest songwriter, and an international star who has performed on the world’s biggest stages.While Lightfoot’s songs are well known, the man behind them is elusive. He’s never allowed his life to be chronicled in a book - until now.

An early architect of punk rock's sound, style, and fury, whose lip-curling sneer and fist-pumping persona vaulted him into pop's mainstream as one of MTV's first megastars, Billy Idol remains, to this day, a true rock 'n' roll icon. Now, in his long-awaited autobiography, Dancing with Myself, Idol delivers an electric, searingly honest account of his journey to fame - from his early days as front man of the pioneering UK punk band Generation X to the decadent life atop the dance-rock kingdom he ruled.

What a fabulous #Audible1! Could it be better if you love The Boss as much as I. I also have to say I had several problems with downloads recently and the crew at audible.ca were awesome as well. They helped at every step until my problems were solved. Not too many details but it was from combining .com and.ca. And I am very grateful to all of them who solved the problem.. Thanks so much. Love audible

Enjoyed the book. Bruce is a wonderful narrator and there's nothing like hearing the story direct from the source. It's a hefty listen and probably could have been edited down a bit. But overall we enjoyed and are glad we listened.

Of course he’s a great storyteller
I’m not sure why I was so surprised by just how well he is able to tell a tale. I’ve been a fan for decades and he has always been one of the best musical artists who like to spin various narratives through their songs. Well Bruce is able to do this in his autobiography just as well. He handles the narration flawlessly. I certainly recommend this for any Springsteen fan, rock music aficionados or someone interested in learning about the unique life of one of rock musics all time legends.

I'm an even bigger fan than before.
Hearing Bruce tell this story in his own words is the only way to experience this book. He can come across a bit pretentious, with his constant use of imagery and run-on descriptions and I feel like he had to look up some of the vocabulary just to sound more eloquent than was necessary, but I love this book, nonetheless. I was a dedicated fan before hearing this book, but even more so, now. He admits his shortcomings and does his best not to offend any of the people who helped make him one of the most successful rock icons in history. We get insights into his entire life, self-destructive and self-loathing challenges and even his ongoing battle with depression. At the end of the book, I had more appreciation for every song and album he wrote and the creative process he utilized, as well as the various directions he took. This is a fascinating story and probably one of the best books I've experienced in a very, very long time. I immediately bought a hardcover copy, after completing the audio book. This is a definite jewel in my collection.

I have heard humanity and his name is Bruce
A perfect tapestry to complete his contribution to the world. While not a superfan I do possess many of Springsteen's records and like many fans have woven a great many of his verses into my life. His contributions over the years has led to love, anger, fear, tears and the entire spectrum of human emotion. I have only attended one live concert and spent many hours looking for seats at other performances where I didn't require binoculars. Indeed I have been envious of those who have been privileged to see him on Broadway. This initiative to undertake a review of his life in such a self-deprecating manner fills my need in this regard in a way I never thought possible. His application of writing, arranging, narrating and passion has allowed a fan to listen for hours uninterrupted to the story behind the man and his music. It has permitted me to relive the 50 years since I first connected with his verse and with many of the same emotions he felt in his journey. I have only gratitude and respect for his passion and dedication to make the world a better place for all. A simple thanks seems inadequate but necessary.
