Longtime Springsteen associate and close friend Terry Magovern passed away on 30 Jul 2007. Magovern began working for Bruce Springsteen in 1987 as personal assistant, but the two had already known each other since they met in January 1972 at the Captain's Garter bar in Neptune, NJ. Terry Magovern's memorial service was held on 02 Aug 2007 at the United Methodist Church Of Red Bank, Red Bank, NJ. During the memorial service, Bruce Springsteen performed a new song called TERRY'S SONG. Reportedly, Springsteen wrote song the day before. In his speech, he said that he "went through my songbook and was looking for an appropriate song to play for Terry. Out of all my songs, there was nothing I could find. So I wrote this song." The song was played on acoustic guitar and harmonica, and according to Brucebase, it contained the line "We can rebuild our mighty towers but we can't rebuild the soul" which is unique to that 02 Aug 2007 rendition.

Isn't it great when a song can mean so much to you? It's just wonderful to hear a song like this!
