Can Anybody Give An Example Of?

Is millercarbon kidding when he says it's a manfred mann song?

That reminds me of my friend being in a record store many years ago, and overhearing a teenager ask, "Was Paul McCartney was in another band before Wings?"

Manfred Mann did a cover version.  IMO a fine version, but the problem with Manfred and Bruce is that Bruce says deuce and Manfred says douche.  But that's another song.

DeKay, I wasn't thinking of that, but it makes sense.  They would definite turn cartwheels 'cross the floor.

Springsteen hails from New Jersey so I'm thinking he probably got some Philly radio station.  In my mind I imagine a vocal soul outfit in matching tight fitting red or green tuxedos singing in falsettos.

@kb54 - it's as much a Manfred Mann song as 'All Along the Watchtower' is a Jimi Hendrix song - these songs were totally redefined by these artists, becoming big hits, and become something more separate from the original, I think....
