I thought this was Pat Benatar’s song. Nope. Yet another one The Boss wrote.
Now playing: Because The Night from “Live 1975-1985 (Disc 2)” by Bruce Springsteen

And it wasn’t even Pat Benetar that sang it; it was Patti Smith.
OK, I get another 5 points off for the wrong name. But you get 1 point off for the wrong spelling. BenAtar… it’s like sepArate… you can see the capital A dividing the word. That’s how Mom taught me to remember sepArate (not benAtar… I googled that one.)
Yeah, I misspelled Benatar. I thought I did well to get the correct spelling of Patti Smith (which I looked up; actually I looked up Benetar later and Google corrected me but by then I had posted already).
I was surfing the 70’s discs today. I was happy to see Because the Night was there. But in 1978 there is another Springsteen song: Fire by the Pointer Sisters. That’s a song I really like and I think it’s funny how different it is when it is sung by the Boss and the Pointer Sisters. Kind of like when Lyle Lovett sings Stand by Your Man.
