"Dancing in the Dark" is a song written and performed by American rock singer Bruce Springsteen. With added uptempo synthesizer riffs and some syncopation to his sound for the first time, the song spent four weeks at number two on the Billboard Hot 100 and eventually sold over one million singles in the U.S. alone. As the first single released from his new album, Born in the U.S.A., it became his biggest hit and propelled the album to become the best-selling one of his career. "Dancing in the Dark" was the last song written and recorded for Born in the U.S.A. Springsteen's producer and manager Jon Landau liked the album but wanted a sure-fire first single, one that was fresh and directly relevant to Springsteen's current state of mind (because much of Born in the U.S.A. had been written two years earlier). Landau and Springsteen argued and Springsteen later wrote "Dancing in the Dark". His irked mood from the day's argument, combined with the frustrations at trying to complete the album, poured out into the lyrics. Album: Born in the U.S.A.
