The Three Mile Island incident happened about a week after I was born, and this was the Boss's response. The song is incredibly prescient given the subsequent events that would happen in Pripyat 7 years later, even being written from the point of view of a fireman (firemen bore the brunt of the direct impact from Chernobyl, and no one told them a fucking thing about what they were facing as they climbed among the ruined structure, while bits of the naked reactor poured thousands of röntgen per hour into their unprotected bodies.)

Gracias por la traducción.
(y feliz cumpleaños)
You're welcome, and thank you (the other video of this song was more no-frills, which I would have preferred, but it wasn't embeddable.)
This is from that transitional, end of Bruce's youth period, and was way better than I remembered his stuff from that time being.
