"Blinded By The Light", which was the first song on Springsteen's first album ("Greetings from Asbury Park, N.J."), was a much bigger hit for Manfred Mann's Earth Band several years later. In fact, most people today only know the Manfred Mann version.Following this success, Manfred Mann also recorded two more Springsteen songs, both from the Greetings album: "For You" and "Spirit in the Night". But neither one of those came close to the success of "Blinded by the Light".

What is Bruce Springsteen's biggest hit?

Yes, he's had several: "Dancing in the dark", "Born in the USA", "I'm on fire", "Brilliant Disguise", "Tunnel of Love", "Human Touch" and "Streets of Philadelphia" (which also earned him an Oscar)Actually, Bruce Springsteen never had a song hit the number one spot on the charts. Although many songs made the top ten, his closest was Dancing in the dark, which hit number 2, but never made it to number 1.Tis true. It doesn't diminish the band's talent or that they were never recognized with all kinds of awards, ...they just never got a number one. It's about timing an albums release and the competition as well as what the listeners are wanting. I love all those songs, and have them in my collection. Rock on Bruce!

In the song blinded by the light what does revved up like a deuce mean?

You'll have to ask Bruce Springsteen, but a Deuce is a 1932 Ford. So, "revved up like a Deuce" is probably a street-hotrodder revving up his 1932 Ford at a traffic light on a summer night, American Graffiti style.
