Audience Quote by Bruce Springsteen

“I always write with an audience in mind. If I feel that [connection] coming back at me then I feel like I'm doing my job. That's why people come to my music - for some emotional experience or a perspective, either on their own lives, or on the world that they're living in.” quote by Bruce Springsteen
