Backstreets is a song from the album Born to Run, which was released in 1975, currently still appearing in set lists on the latest Bruce Springsteen Magic world tour. It deals with the relationship between two friends, the narrator, and Terry. They are forced to hide their love for each other from others and "hide on the Backstreets". In the end, the relationship falls apart. Terry leaves with another man leaving the narrator alone and full of rage, love and sadness.
In 2007, during the E Street Band's Magic Tour, "Backstreets" was played frequently in the setlist most likely as a tribute to Springsteen's longtime friend, Terry Magovern, who died earlier that year.
In the song "The Promise" by Bruce Springsteen, Terry is referred to in the lyrics. It is said that she "works in a rock and roll band, looking for that million dollar sound." It is unknown if this is the same Terry.
