Serious mourning for Bruce Springsteen. The Boss announced the death of his mother Adele Zerilli. She was 98 years old, originally from Vico Equense (Naples), and had been battling Alzheimer's disease for a decade.
In the video published on Instagram, the images of when mother and son danced together to Glenn Miller's music: "We'll find a little rock 'n roll bar, we'll go out and dance", writes the artist on her social profile in the words of her song “The Wish”.
Springsteen was very close to his mother, who was often present to applaud him in the stands of his concerts, and who gave him his first guitar. Despite being forced to go to work as a secretary in a law firm to support her family, she had always created an affectionate atmosphere.
Adele «no longer speaks, she can no longer stand. She no longer eats alone. But when he sees me there is always a smile. And there's always a kiss", the Boss had said during a show: "And when I put on a Glen Miller record, he starts moving in his chair, holding out his hand to dance with me once again".
