Did You Know?

Interesting facts and trivia about Springsteen. By Songfacts®.

Despite its title, this cut is not an ode to the Boss, but is in fact a love song. "I have such a reverence for Bruce Springsteen's career and how he's built it," Church told The Boot. "The interesting part is it's a love affair that takes place in an amphitheater between two people. It didn't happen with Springsteen, ironically, it happened with another artist. I went to a concert when I was younger with a girl, and to this day when I hear that artist, it's the soundtrack to that girl. I never think about her any other time, except when that song is on. That's where the 'Springsteen' came from, and he seemed to be the perfect guy to craft that story around because of my love for him."

Church penned the song with bandmate Jeff Hyde who also co-penned "Smoke A Little Smoke," and Nashville songwriter Ryan Tyndell, whose other credits include the Clay Walker single, "Where Do I Go From You."

Church told Reuters this is his favorite song from Chief. He explained: "I lived that song. I was 15 years-old and she was 16. We had that love affair where you connect with someone, and the artist that was playing becomes a soundtrack to your relationship. We didn't stay together, but to this day, when I hear Bruce Springsteen, I think of her and I hope she thinks of me."
