Lucky Town is the tenth studio album by Bruce Springsteen. The album was released on March 31, 1992, the same day as the Human Touch album. Created more quickly and easily than 'Human Touch', its companion album, 'Lucky Town' runs the gamut from the rocking title track to the soft and soul-searching 'My Beautiful Reward'. Much of the songwriting is autobiographical, from 'Local Hero' to the masterful 'Living Proof', written after the birth of Springsteen's first son. Lucky Town peaked at #3 on the Billboard 200, with "Better Days" (paired with Human Touch's "Human Touch") peaking at #1 on the Mainstream Rock and #16 on the Billboard Hot 100. Lucky Town has since sold over one million copies in the United States. Springsteen was working on Human Touch, which he intended to release sometime in 1990, but the project took him longer than he thought. He shelved the project in early 1991 and came back to it in September of the same year. Intending to record one more song for the album ("Living Proof"), he ended up with ten new songs, which became Lucky Town.
