    I was driving home on the freeway a couple weeks ago and the guitar solo started as the sunset was cresting the hills in the distance. It was such a weirdly magical moment, blasting off into the orange sky.

    Easily one of the best songs ever. The nonsensical rhyming lyrics, the instrumental interlude with awesome guitar & killer drums, the layered vocals near the end, the hauntingly quiet final line - put all that together and its just an incredible song; 7 minutes of ecstasy.

    This is the definitive version, hands down. There is so much cool stuff to listen to - the drums, the guitar, the multilayered vocals and of course “Chopsticks” thrown in. This song always brings a smile to my face and transports me back in time to the 70s and my senior year of high school.

      Most of the lyrics mean more than the "nonsensical" things people take away from it. With a boulder on my shoulder, feeling kinda older

    “Blinded by the Light” is a high-energy track that matches the thrill of adolescence. The song is packed with the invincibility of youth, and the hopeful perspective that anything is possible. The lyrics are reminiscent of Bruce Springsteen’s early days as a musician with a handful of eccentric characters that he met at venues.....Springsteen talked about this song in detail on an episode of VH1 Storytellers. A lot of the references are personal, to include people he knew or had met on the Boardwalks, or had grown up around, or were just direct personal references to himself:
    Madman drummers bummers - Vinnie "Mad dog" Lopez, the first drummer in the E Street Band.
    Indians in the summer - Bruce's little league baseball team as a kid.
    In the dumps with the mumps - being sick with the mumps.
    Boulder on my shoulder - a "chip" on his shoulder.
    Some all hot, half-shot, heading for a hot spot, snapping fingers clapping his hands - Being a "know it all kid growing up, who doesn't really know anything."
    "Silicone Sister" - Bruce mentions that this is arguably the first mention of breast implants in popular music - a dancer at one of the local strip joints in Asbury Park.
    He wrote this song in his bedroom, primarily using a rhyming dictionary. Or as Bruce put it, "the rhyming dictionary was on fire."

    Great music can set you free, if only for a few moments, while it transports you back to somewhere, someplace, and at sometime throughout your past. That is the magic of the art. Every note is like a painters stroke of his or her brush on the canvas. That's the beauty of it. Sometimes you end up with a masterpiece. Rock on.

    Manfred Mann’s Earth Band’s remake of Blinded By The Light which was originally written and recorded by Bruce Springsteen topped the charts for one week on February 19,1977 ending Mary MacGregor’s two week run with her smash hit ballad Torn Between Two Lovers. Then the following week Manfred Mann’s Earth Band were dethroned by the Eagles with the first single from their landmark album Hotel California titled New Kid In Town.

    I remember watching this song back in the 2000s era/early 2010s. So proud of being late 1990s baby.

    10 peopless listened to this and didnt play air guitar to the lead. One of the greatest leads ever recorded ! On that day Mr. Dave Flett layed it down and entered the stratosphere to share space with Edward Vanhalen Jimi Hendrix Terry Kath (insert your own favorites here) etc.

    The guitar solo in this is so good, I get angry when they play the radio edit version without it.

    I’m just glad that nobody started a comment going, about what they THOUGHT Chris Thompson was singing. Like, the part where ……oh, wait, what am I doing?

    The guitar solo is ahead of their time, with the exception of Jimmy Hendrix, of course.

      I've always thought this masterpiece was written by Manfred Mann. Turns out somebody else wrote it. That's cool doh.

    Blinded by the light
    Revved up like a deuce
    Another runner in the night
    Blinded by the light
    Madman drummer bummers
    Indians in the summer
    With a teenage diplomat
    In the dumps with the mumps
    As the adolescent pumps
    His way into his hat
    With a boulder on my shoulder
    Feeling kinda older
    I tripped a merry-go-round
    With this very unpleasing
    Sneezing and wheezing
    The calliope crashed to the ground
    The calliope crashed to the ground
    But she was blinded by the light
    Revved up like a deuce
    Another runner in the night
    Blinded by the light
    Revved up like a deuce
    Another runner in the night
    Blinded by the light
    Revved up like a deuce
    Another runner in the night
    Some silicone sister
    With her manager mister
    Told me I got what it takes
    She said, I'll turn you on sonny to something strong
    Play the song with the funky break
    And go-kart Mozart
    Was checking out the weather chart
    To see if it was safe outside
    And little Early Pearly
    Came by in his curly-wurly
    And asked me if I needed a ride
    Asked me if I needed a ride
    'Cause she was blinded by the light
    Revved up like a deuce
    Another runner in the night
    Blinded by the light
    She got down but she never got tight
    She's gonna make it to the night
    She's gonna make it through the night
    But mama, that's where the fun is
    But mama, that's where the fun is
    [Solo]
    Mama always told me not to look into the eyes of the sun
    But mama, that's where the fun is
    Some brimstone baritone
    Anticyclone rolling stone
    Preacher from the east
    Says, "Dethrone the Dictaphone
    Hit it in its funny bone
    That's where they expect it least."
    And some new mown chaperone
    Was standing in the corner
    Watching the young girls dance
    And some fresh-sown moonstone
    Was messing with his frozen zone
    Reminding him of romance
    The calliope crashed to the ground
    But she was blinded by the light
    Revved up like a deuce
    Another runner in the night
    Blinded by the light
    Revved up like a deuce
    Another runner in the night
    (Madman drummers bummers and Indians in the summer with a teenage diplomat
    In the dumps with the mumps as the adolescent pumps his way into his hat)
    Blinded by the light
    Revved up like a deuce
    Another runner in the night
    Blinded by the light
    Revved up like a deuce
    Another runner in the night
    (With a boulder on my shoulder feelin' kinda older I tripped the merry-go-round
    With this very unpleasing sneezing and wheezing the calliope crashed to the ground)
    Blinded by the light
    Revved up like a deuce
    Another runner in the night
    Blinded by the light
    Revved up like a deuce
    Another runner in the night
    (And now Scott with a slingshot finally found a tender spot and throws his lover in the sand
    And some bloodshot forget-me-not whispers daddy's within earshot save the buckshot turn up the band.)
    Blinded by the light
    Revved up like a deuce
    Another runner in the night
    Blinded by the light
    Revved up like a deuce
    Another runner in the night
    (Some silicone sister with her manager mister told me I got what it takes
    She said I'll turn you on sonny to something strong)
    She got down but she never got tired
    She's gonna make it through the night
