Track Description
Available in:
"4th of July, Asbury Park (Sandy)", often known just as "Sandy", is a 1973 song by Bruce Springsteen, originally appearing as the second song on his album The Wild, The Innocent and The E Street Shuffle. It was released as a single from the album in Germany.

"¤th of July,Asbury Park (Sandy)" was written in mid-1973. In his 1998 book Songs, Springsteen wrote: "I'd been evicted from my apartment above the beauty salon, so I moved on myself and was living with my girlfriend in a garage apartment, five minutes from Asbury Park, in Bradley Beach. This is where I wrote '4th of July, Asbury Park (Sandy),' a goodbye to my adopted hometown and the life I'd lived there before I recorded. Sandy was a composite of some of the girls I'd known along the Shore. I used the boardwalk and the closing down of the town as a metaphor for the end of a summer romance and the changes I was experiencing in my own life."

"4th of July. Asbury Park(Sandy)" is one of the best-known and most praised songs of Bruce's early efforts. The song remains one of his most popular ballads, and has been described as "the perfect musical study of the Jersey Shore boardwalk culture."
