Bruce Springsteen turns sixty

Rock legend Bruce Springsteen - also known as The Boss to his legion of loyal fans - has turned 60. He celebrated his birthday yesterday, 23rd September.

The prolific singer-songwriter has been a permanent figure on the music *landscape since the early Seventies. His first album, Born to Run, *released in August 1975, is considered by fans to be one of his greatest *achievements. But the singer is probably more widely recognised for his commercially and critically acclaimed 1984 hit album Born in the USA.

Here you are some curious facts about his life:

• Full name: Bruce Frederick Joseph Springsteen.


• Springsteen has so far won a total of 18 Grammy Awards.


• He dreamed of becoming a baseball star as a child.


• He nearly gave up on his other dream of becoming a guitar player - believing his hands were too small to play the instrument.


• He received his first guitar at the age of five as a gift from his mother.


• He sold more than 65 million albums in America alone, and 120 million worldwide.

release - sacar a la venta

Here you are a beautiful balad from his last album. Happy birthday, BOSS!!!

"Whatever will be, will be" - Doris Day

Let's revise Future Simple by singing a very famous song. I am sure you will love it.



When I was just a little girl
I asked my mother what will I be
Will I be pretty, will I be rich
Here's what she said to me

Que sera, sera
Whatever will be, will be
The future's not ours to see
Que sera, sera
What will be, will be

When I grew up and fell in love
I asked my sweetheart what lies ahead
Will we have rainbows day after day
Here's what my sweetheart said

Que sera, sera
Whatever will be, will be
The future's not ours to see
Que sera, sera
What will be, will be

Now I have children of my own
They asked their mother what will I be
Will I be handsome, will I be rich
I tell them tenderly

Que sera, sera
Whatever will be, will be
The future's not ours to see
Que sera, sera
What will be, will be

Que sera, sera...
