Bruce Springsteen has dropped the new track, “Addicted to Romance,” to be featured in the end credits of the upcoming movie ‘She Came to Me.’ The 74-year-old Springsteen collaborated with his wife and bandmate, Patty Scialfa, and The National’s Bryce Dessner on the song, which is written by Springsteen and orchestrated by Dessner, who co-produced the track with Ron Aniello.
She Came to Me, which stars Peter Dinklage, Anne Hathaway, and Marisa Tomei, centers around a composer who is struggling to complete the score for his next opera and goes out searching for inspiration. Director Rebecca Miller recently told Variety how she got an original song from Springsteen for her film. “I really love Bruce’s music. For the end of ‘She Came to Me,’ we wanted an original song. I had a secret wish it might be Bruce, but I was reluctant to ask. I felt it was so unlikely, and frankly, I was a bit shy.” After some urging from Dessner, Miller reached out to Springsteen; revealing: “Bruce and his wife ended up watching the film, and, to my delight, they both loved it! Bruce said he’d take a few days to see if anything came to him for a song.”
She Came to Me debuts in theaters nationwide on October 6. Take a listen to ‘Addicted to Romance” – here.
