On June 13, when appearing at the Storytellers event at Tribeca Festival, Springsteen received the Harry Belafonte Voices for Social Justice Award. As reported by PEOPLE, he spent time at the event speaking with Bono about his career and mentioned that the only Oscar he won was “kind of a fluke.”
“It really was because Jonathan Demme called me up and said, 'I need a rock song for the movie I just made,’” Springsteen explained. “And he told me a little bit about the film, and he sent me just an opening two minutes or so of it. I tried to write him a rock song when I just couldn't. So I went next door, and I had a little synthesizer and a little drum machine and [in] a couple of days I wrote the song."

As Springsteen said, "It was really one of those things. If you do good things, good things happen. So Jonathan Demme, who is deeply missed and was a wonderful, wonderful man, incredible filmmaker, kind of invited me into his film, and I guess we lucked out.”
