For several months, we asked you for your dream Bruce Hornsby setlist – we put every one of Bruce Hornsby’s songs onto a list, and asked you all to tick as many or as few boxes as you liked. We even threw in several of the multiple songs which Bruce has covered over the years.
Now, after totting up all your votes, here are the songs which made your top 25. You’ll notice only 22 files, as three of them lead from one into another, so you still get your 25 Bruce Hornsby songs.
They’re in no particular order, but you may be interested to know that the top five songs that you voted for were:
1. The Way It Is
2. Mandolin Rain
3. Fortunate Son
4. End of the Innocence
5. The Road Not Taken.
It’s been said before, but you are definitely a ballad crowd!
And thank you all for playing nicely and not sending me looking for some obscure version of “Listen to the Silence” or something.
Here’s the full setlist:
