"There Goes My Miracle" was the second taste of Bruce Springsteen's Western Stars, arriving in May 2019 after "Hello Sunshine", and it finds him pushing his voice higher than usual to mourn a love that slipped away. It has been heard as Springsteen embracing his soft spot for crooners like Burt Bacharach, and the arrangement goes big to match: strings, trumpets from Barry Danielian and Curt Ramm, Clark Gayton's trombone, Jon Brion on Moog and timpani, Lenny Castro on tambourine and shakers.
Springsteen wrote it alone and produced it with Ron Aniello, and the two of them split a pile of instruments between them, from guitars and piano to celesta and organ. Patti Scialfa is among the backing singers, and Tom Elmhirst mixed. It never touched the Billboard charts in America, but Italian radio took it all the way to number one.
