 {{Main page image/TFA|File:Springsteen 05051981 01 200.jpg|caption=Springsteen in the early 1980s}} "I'm Goin' Down" is a rock song written and performed by American singer Bruce Springsteen. The song was recorded with the E Street Band on May 12–13, 1982, and was released on August 27, 1985, by Columbia Records as the sixth single from his 1984 album Born in the U.S.A. Although Springsteen had changing ideas about the songs to put on the album, "I'm Goin' Down" was ultimately selected for inclusion. The recording is based on an energetic band performance that gives prominence to a heavy drum sound. The lyrics focus on sexual frustration in a deteriorating relationship. The single reached No. 9 in the United States and the top 30 in Sweden, Canada, and Italy. On the album's release, it was praised by critics for the band's musicianship and Springsteen's vocals and lyrics. Later it received favorable rankings in retrospectives of Springsteen's career, among which was an NME list calling it his fourth best song. {{TFAFULL|I&#39;m Goin&#39; Down}}
