The release of Born to Run in 1975 propelled him to worldwide fame. During his over fifty-year career, Springsteen has been  known for his socially conscious lyrics and high-energy stage presence as “The Boss.” From its title down, Letter to You is a message to diehard Springsteen fans, the sound of an artist fighting hard in difficult times.
