I 1991 udgav Crazy Horse og E. Street Band guitaristen Nils Lofgren et af karrierens bedste album “Silver Living”. et album med et stjernehold af gæstemusikere – Levon Helm, Billy Preston, Bruce Springsteen, Ringo Starr, og Clarence Clemons.

Et af albummets mange perler er nummeret “Valentine” – hvor Bruce Springsteen også lader sin ru røst runge. Mesterligt. Hvis ikke den skal spille i dag – hvornår så? Ok, så i morgen, og i overmorgen, og i ………..

Today I’m thinking about the world we live in
All the love and hate that’s floating around
And all the times I’ve felt so lost and helpless
You’ve stood by me you never let me down

Still I keep throwing up these walls
Most of them I’ve built with stone
You tear them down and bridge the distance
Knowing we ain’t here to be alone

So let your blue heart open wide
Let’s never leave our dreams behind
It would comfort and restore my pride
If you let me be your valentine

Our differences are part of life
Still love will pass the test of time
I want you every day and night
Girl won’t you be my valentine

(Tekst: Nils Lofgren)
