Bruce Springsteen's Born in the U.S.A. needs little introduction. Released on June 4, 1984, the album became the best-selling record of 1985 in the United States, moving 15 million domestic copies and 30 million worldwide. A landmark departure from the spare acoustic sound of its predecessor Nebraska, it paired Springsteen's working-class narratives with synthesizer-driven, radio-ready arrangements that pushed him into the mainstream without sacrificing substance. The album produced a record-tying seven Top 10 singles alongside a two-year world tour, and remains one of the most celebrated rock records ever made. Rolling Stone ranked it among the 100 greatest albums of all time.
