Halsey's fifth album interpolates one of The Boss's best-known tunes

Halsey arrives at the MTV Video Music Awards on Wednesday, Sept. 11, 2024, at UBS Arena in Elmont, N.Y.

Although the subject matter differs between the songs, the usage of the keyboards creates a familiar sense of longing. In “I’m On Fire,” Springsteen sings from the perspective of a man longing for a married woman. Meanwhile on “Letter to God ,” a sequel to another track on the album, “Letter to God ,” offers a cause and effect both in recording style and subject matter.

“Letter to God ” takes the approach of Halsey recording the song in a studio. The younger version of herself longs for her mother and father to be loving parents. She recalls a five-year-old boy diagnosed with leukеmia and seeing the love and attention she craves given to another child. Halsey‘s younger self prays for the disease to get the same attention, not knowing the other ramifications. The heartbreaking revelation comes four tracks later.
