The Boss rocks out on 'Cold Case'

Even Bruce Springsteen has a breaking point. Not usually a fan of letting his music be used in television programs, the January 8th episode of Cold Case will feature nine of Bruce's biggest hits, including "No Surrender" and "Atlantic City." However, if you can believe it, this story gets even better. The episode, entitled "Eight Years," tells the story of a few high school friends in the 1980s. They graduate, do their own thing, and then one of them ends up dead. Following the death, the other friends are questioned regarding the potential "murder." Now where have I heard that storyline before? It sounds so familiar... so recent, like it was from another show. The writer behind this episode of Cold Case said she chose the songs and then penned the script with the tunes in mind. Or maybe she just saw that show I can't remember... what was it?
