The Blinded by the Light Soundtrack Is a Nostalgia-Packed Throwback

18/08/2019 - 06:20 PM

The Blinded by the Light soundtrack is pretty much exactly what you'd expect for a semi-autobiographical jukebox musical [1] about the impact of Bruce Springsteen's music [2] on characters half a world away. Featuring a dozen Springsteen classics, the soundtrack picks some of The Boss's biggest hits, arranged at perfect moments throughout the story. But that's not the only throwback you'll find on the soundtrack: the non-Springsteen tracks are overflowing with '80s nostalgia, and even the original music for the film fits right in. If you're curious to see which Springsteen hits made the cut — or are just dying for a ready-made '80s throwback playlist — keep reading to see what tunes you can see in Blinded by the Light, in theatres now [3]!
