Bruce Springsteen won the Golden Globe Sunday night for Best Original Song -- Motion Picture for 'The Wrestler,' which makes for Springsteen's second Golden Globe win. He previously won for the song 'Streets of Philadelphia' for the movie 'Philadelphia' in 1994."All right! This is the only time I'm gonna be in competition with Clint Eastwood, I know that for sure," Springsteen told the audience. "Felt pretty good, too."
"First and foremost I'd like to thank Mickey [Rourke]," Springsteen said of 'The Wrestler' star. "Without the call I wouldn't have written the song. Without his inspiration. Thank you brother, for a beautiful performance, thank you. Thanks for thinking of me."
Springsteen also acknowledged filmmaker Darren Aronofsky before adding, "Love to my strong and lovely wife Patti, and hello to Evan, Jess and Sam at home. Happy birthday Big Man, Clarence Clemons!"
Springsteen attended the awards with his wife, Patti Scialfa. They sat with Aronofsky and Rourke, who took home the Best Actor in a Drama Award for 'The Wrestler.'
