"My Hometown" gave the "Born in the U.S.A." album its sense of place, a finale that pulled the frame in close — revealing a childhood memory, social and economic hardship, and the pull between staying and going. From the '84/'85 tour to last year's Land of Hope & Dreams tour, the song became one Bruce would return to again and again. As the last of seven top 10 singles from the LP, it peaked at No. 6 on the Billboard chart 40 years ago today. | Bruce Springsteen
