Rolling Stones Top 500 Songs of All-Time - "Rosalita (Come Out Tonight)" by Bruce Springsteen

 

The Randon number generator gave me number 446 which is "Rosalita (Come Out Tonight)" by Bruce Springsteen, which was released in 1973.  What a fun song, but I haven't heard it in a LONG time.  If it is the same for you, take a listen here: "Rosalita (Come Out Tonight)"



Best Attribute:  Fun - Sounds like a great party is going on!  Also, the piano, guitar, bass, sax and drums are all heard, but none overshadow any of the others.
Worst Attribute:  Some lyrics are a little nonsensical, but I am being picky here to be honest.

Best Line: "Mama, she's home in the window waitin' up for us.  She'll be in that chair when they wrestle her upstairs.  'Cause you know we ain't gonna come." 
Worst Line:  "Windows are for cheaters, chimneys for the poor.  Oh closets are for hangars, winners use the door." - Huh?

Would I listen again: Oh yeah! - Great for at a beach party, or a day drinking affair.

Rolling Stone Ranking:  446
My Current Ranking:  1
Projected Final Ranking:  284
