"Ghosts" is a 2020 single by American rock band Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band. The song was released as the second single for Springsteen's then forthcoming album Letter to You on September 24, 2020. A music video for the single was also released.
It has been described as a song about the "beauty and joy of being in a band and the pain of losing one another to illness and time". [3] [4] Besides being a salute to lost bandmates and a love letter to rock, Rolling Stone describes "Ghosts" as a probable future live favorite when concerts resume, and sounding like a "revved-up version of rockers from The River, such as "Two Hearts". [5] The official music video features visual references to George Theiss, Clarence Clemons and Danny Federici.
