This was intentional, and in contrast to Darkness, for as Springsteen said during an interview, InchRock and roll has always been this joy, this certain happiness that is in its way the most beautiful thing in life. But rock is also about hardness and coldness and being alone... I finally got to the place where I realized life had paradoxes, a lot of them, and you've got to live with them.Inch
