By 1985, the music scene was fully embracing what would later be considered one of the greatest decades of all time in rock music. Among the many songs out in 1985 are these three nostalgic rock songs, which are all so good that I wish I could travel back in time to listen to them again and again.<\/p>\n
\u201cBorn In The U.S.A.\u201d by Bruce Springsteen<\/p>\n
\u201cBorn In The U.S.A<\/a>.\u201d remains one of the biggest hits of Bruce Springsteen\u2019s career. Written by Springsteen, \u201cBorn In The U.S.A.\u201d is the title track of Springsteen\u2019s seventh studio album.<\/p>\n Some may have thought of \u201cBorn In The U.S.A.\u201d as a patriotic anthem. But the song is actually about the plight of Vietnam veterans, especially after returning home to America. It begins with, \u201cBorn down in a dead man\u2019s town \/ The first kick I took was when I hit the ground \/ You end up like a dog that\u2019s been beat too much \/ \u2019Til you spend half your life just covering up \/ Born in the U.S.A \/ I was born in the U.S.A \/ I was born in the U.S.A \/ Born in the U.S.A.\u201d<\/p>\n Perhaps ironically, \u201cBorn In The U.S.A.\u201d became a global hit for Springsteen.<\/p>\n \u201cDon\u2019t You (Forget About Me)\u201d by Simple Minds<\/p>\n
