On this day in 1984 – Bruce Springsteen released the album, Born In The U.S.A., which became the best-selling album of 1985 in the United States (and also Springsteen’s most successful album ever). The album produced a record-tying string of seven Top 10 singles (tied with Michael Jackson’s Thriller and Janet Jackson’s Rhythm Nation 1814). The first single from the album, ‘Dancing in the Dark’ with “Pink Cadillac” on the B-side, peaked at No.2 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 and spent 21 weeks on the chart.
