Listen to Bruce Springsteen’s Previously Unreleased Song “I’ll Stand by You”

Music, News

Several recordings by Bruce Springsteen appear on the soundtrack to Blinded by the Light, a new coming-of-age film directed by Gurinder Chadha (Bend It Like Beckham) with a plot heavily centered on Springsteen’s music. Among them is “I’ll Stand by You,” a previously unreleased ballad that was inspired by Harry Potter but ultimately rejected from the films. “It’s pretty good,” Springsteen said of the song in a 2016 interview. “At some point I’d like to get it into a children’s movie of some sort.”

Check out the soundtrack, which also includes live takes on “The Promised Land,” “The River,” and “Thunder Road,” below.

Blinded by the Light hits U.S. theaters on August 16. Springsteen’s latest album, Western Stars, arrived in June.
