NEW YORK - BRUCE Springsteen says he was energised to make a new album quickly after recording a song he calls a 'love-in-the-time-of-Bush meditation'.

In notes posted on his Web site on Tuesday, Springsteen explains the creation of his new disc 'Working on Dream' (due out Jan. 27) - which follows his last album, 'Magic', by only 15 months - an unusually quick turnaround for him.

It started with the song 'What Love Can Do'.

Springsteen says he usually doesn't write that quickly, but the excitement from 'Magic' left 'more than enough fuel for the fire to keep going'.

Springsteen will perform at the American football championships, the Super Bowl, on Feb 1. Springsteen recently got two Grammy nominations for his song 'Girls in Their Summer Clothes'. -- AP
