Bruce Springsteen (71) fremførte en gripende akustisk fremførelse av sin låt «I’ll See You in My Dreams» på 9/11 minnesmerket i New York City under 20 -årsjubileet for terrorangrepene lørdag 11. september 2021. Før fremførelsen holdt Springsteen en tale for å minne de nesten 3000 menneskene som døde. “May God bless our fallen brothers and sisters, their families, their friends and their loved ones,” – Bruce Springsteen

Låta er hentet fra hans album «Letter To You» som ble utgitt i 2020.

Slik er teksten til låta:

The road is long and seeming without end
The days go on, I remember you my friend
And though you’re gone
And my heart’s been emptied it seems
I’ll see you in my dreams

I got you guitar here by the bed
All your favorite records
And all the books that you read
And though my soul feels like
It’s been split at the seams
I’ll see you in my dreams

I’ll see you in my dreams
When all the summers have come to an end
I’ll see you in my dreams
We’ll meet and live and love again
I’ll see you in my dreams
Yeah, up around the river bend
For death is not the end
And I’ll see you in my dreams

I’ll see you in my dreams
When all the summers have come to an end
I’ll see you in my dreams
We’ll meet and live and love again
I’ll see you in my dreams
Yeah, up around the river bend
For death is not the end
And I’ll see you in my dreams
(See) You in my dreams
See you in my dreams

Go

And I’ll see you in my dreams

Etter Bruce Springsteen opptreden var det et øyeblikks stillhet klokken 09:03 for å markere da United Airlines Flight 175 krasjet i det sørlige tårnet til World Trade Center.

Her kan du høre «I’ll See You in My Dreams» fra albumet «Letter To You»:

Da Springsteen og E Street Band sitt album «The Rising» ble utgitt i 2002, snakket Springsteen med ABC New Nightline (se filmklipp nedenfor) for å fortelle om hvordan angrepene 11. september påvirket albumet der han blant annet sa: “One of the most powerful images of the 11th, that I’d read in the paper, some of the people coming down were talking about emergency workers who were ascending. The idea of those guys going up the stairs, up the stairs ascending, ascending. I mean you could be ascending up a smoky staircase, you could be in the afterlife, moving on.”
