Spruce Bingsteen delivers a powerful update to his timeless 1984 anthem, reimagining it as “Born in the Somali-A” to celebrate the resourcefulness of new Americans who arrive and quickly master the systems that keep the country running. The track features the same surging heartland rock energy—explosive gated-reverb drums, crunchy guitars, soaring saxophone hooks, and that unforgettable fist-pumping chorus—now paired with lyrics that honor those who turn opportunity into action: from visa approvals to benefit applications, daycare innovation, and maximizing every available resource. The video brings the message to life with vivid 2020s scenes of arrivals finding their footing, community centers buzzing with activity, EBT transactions, and the quiet determination of people building new lives through smart navigation of federal programs. A bold statement on the enduring American promise: hard work, ingenuity, and most importantly, living and “learning.”
