Bruce Springsteen has paid tribute to his mother Adele after announcing her death, aged 98.
The American singer-songwriter, 74, shared a video dancing with his mum when revealing the news on social media.
‘Adele Springsteen – May 4, 1925-January 31, 2024,’ he began.
Springsteen then posted lyrics to his 1998 song The Wish.
‘I remember in the morning mom hearing your alarm clock ring. I’d lie in bed and listen to you getting ready for work, the sound of your makeup case on the sink,’ he added.
‘And the ladies at the office all lipstick, perfume and rustling skirts, how proud and happy you always looked walking home from work.
‘It ain’t no phone call on Sunday, flowers or a Mother’s Day card. It ain’t no house on the hill with a garden and a nice little yard. I’ve got my hot rod down on Bond Street I’m older but you’ll know me in a glance. We’ll find us a Little rock ‘n roll bar and we’ll go out and dance.’
