00:01:54,160 --> 00:01:56,000
Speaker 2: he put all the muscles on. In the early eighties, yeah,

42
00:01:56,080 --> 00:01:58,880
Speaker 2: and there was a guy called John Landau rocked up

43
00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:01,440

00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:10,440
Speaker 2: That's not a bad job as it for all those

49
00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:12,280
Speaker 2: all those times and done right.

50
00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:12,600

00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:15,920
Speaker 2: hotel room and said, we need a hit for this album,

53
00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:17,880
Speaker 2: which was born in the USA and overnight, he wrote

54
00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:20,040
Speaker 2: Dancing in the Dark really sort of worked all right

55
00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:22,760
Speaker 2: for him, didn't he It did work all right, But yeah,

56
00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:25,320
Speaker 2: Bruce was a scorny little dude. Everyone sort of compared

57
00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:26,760
Speaker 2: him a bit to Dylan in the early days, and

58
00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:27,960
Speaker 2: then all of a sudden he rocked up with the

59
00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:30,200

94
00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:57,120
Speaker 2: and then he started laughing. He's answering my question. It's

95
00:03:57,120 --> 00:03:58,320
