In the video below, Bruce Springsteen sings “Valentine’s Day,” the closing song on his Tunnel of Love album. The song captures an underlying fear of any relationship, the fear of loss (“What scares me is losin’ you”). It’s one of the saddest songs about someone in a happy relationship.
But sometimes thinking about the fear of loss can make you appreciate the value of what you have. Check it out.
The performance is from October 15, 2005 in Madison, Wisconsin. Happy Valentine’s Day.
