“The word is ‘sways,'” Landau wrote.
“That’s the way he wrote it in his original notebooks, that’s the way he sang it on, in 1975, that’s the way he has always sung it at thousands of shows, and that’s the way he sings it right now on Broadway. Any typos in official Bruce material will be corrected.”
Listen to the '75-'85 live album. He clearly sings 'sways'
If I were Springsteen, I'd say 'now it's 'undulates'' and tell everybody to stfu.
Sways rhymes with plays
Next week’s controversy: it’s actually, “He’s the One.“
I have been on team wave since 1975 and I am not changing or swaying’ no matter what anyone says!
Also: flags wave, so I'm pretty sure a dress can, too.
Umm... I have the Born to Run album on original vinyl, and the printed lyric is 'waves'
This story reminded me of The Kingsmen's hit song Louie Louie, and the 31 month FBI investigation to examine (in1964) whether or not the lyrics were dirty. The FBI found the song 'unintelligible at any speed.' I

I never even knew thee was a debate
I we just going to pretend everytime he sings it he says waves?
tannenbaumr does this settle it? 😂

“Dresses don’t know how to wave”, Landau says. They could learn a thing or two from flags. 😉
It is sways, you crazy bastards
springsteen jonlandau According to the original vinyl record it “waves”! Check it out
Open the vinyl Born to Run album and view the lyrics. It is “waves”.
also, it's not burned out Chevrolet's....it's burned out shallow graves.
It's kind of sad to have this settled now. Since this has been one of the more entertaining topics in my timeline which, I have to confess, really enjoyed to follow. :-)

Corn doesn't know how to wave either Jon, yet here we are.
The dress is blue and black, not gold and white.

Time to sway goodbye to this debate it seems.
