1985 - Born In The USA Is Number One In The UK

February 16th 1985, The Boss was Number 1 in the UK with 'Born In The USA.' Isn't that the country we kicked out of the US a few centuries ago?

Then again, how many British musicians have been number one in the US over the years? This was the first number one hit for Bruce Springsteen in the UK, and it was also the best selling LP in the US back in 1985. 15 million copies were sold statewide and 30 million around the planet.

Watch this live version of the Boss performing 'Working On The Highway' from the 'Born In The USA' album, during a concert in Paris back in 1985.
