I had no idea that Springsteen wrote Because the Night, listened to Easter many many times, it's a great album. Looks like she reworked it enough to get writer credits on the song.

Kind of like Bruce reworking Suicides Dream Baby Dream. I am a fan of both artist and have to say that Bruce's version is incomparable. It's probably the strangest song to do as a final encore that I've ever heard, I always feel super sad when I hear Springsteen's version.
