I'm a big fan of Bruce Springsteen. Not really a guilty pleasure, I'm outright loving his music. He really is the Boss, no doubt about it. This is a mix of some wonderfully done covers spanning his career. I used "I'm On Fire" and "Thunder Road" twice, only because both versions are excellent. Great songs and great respect to the songwriter on display here. Khayem had a great post with plenty of covers of "I'm On Fire" at their site recently - must be something in the air having us working on Bruce Springsteen posts at nearly the same time.
