Bruce Springsteen – The Artist

Bruce Springsteen (born 1949) is an American singer-songwriter and leader of the E Street Band. Nicknamed “The Boss,” he is recognised for his poetic lyrics, his Jersey Shore roots, his distinctive voice, and lengthy, energetic stage performances. Bruce Springsteen has recorded both rock albums and more somber folk-oriented works. His most successful studio albums, Born to Run (1975) and Born in the U.S.A. (1984) find pleasures in the struggles of daily American life. He has sold more than 135 million records worldwide and more than 64 million records in the United States, making him one of the world’s best-selling artists.

I’m on Fire – The Song

I’m on Fire is a song written and performed by American rock performer Bruce Springsteen. Released in 1985, it was the fourth single from his album Born in the U.S.A. The music video for the song was shot in March 1985 in Los Angeles, and was directed by filmmaker John Sayles. Unlike the previous videos from the album, the video was not a performance clip, but rather a dramatic interpretation of the song’s themes. In it, Springsteen plays a working class automobile mechanic with an attractive, married, very well-to-do, mostly unseen female customer who brings her vintage Ford Thunderbird in for frequent servicing, always requesting that he does the work. She leaves a small bunch of keys with him when she leaves in her car, possibly including house keys implying that she wishes to start an affair with him, but declines his offer to bring the car out to her house when it’s ready. Later that night, he drives the car up to her mansion high in the hills above the city. He looks to a second floor window with the light on and is about to ring the bell, when he thinks better of it and drops her keys in the mailbox next to the door. He smiles wistfully and walks away down towards the city lights below.

The Burning Man – The Shape

This record has been modelled into a mans burning head. Fire is the rapid oxidation of a material (the fuel) in the exothermic chemical process of combustion, releasing heat, light, and various reaction products. At a certain point in the combustion reaction, called the ignition point, flames are produced. The flame is the visible portion of the fire. Flames consist primarily of carbon dioxide, water vapour, oxygen and nitrogen. If hot enough, the gases may become ionised to produce plasma. Depending on the substances alight, and any impurities outside, the colour of the flame and the fire’s intensity will be different.
