Tunnel of Love is a rock album by Bruce Springsteen released in 1987 (see 1987 in music). After the tremendous success of the big, brash and anthemic Born in the U.S.A., Springsteen took his foot off the throttle quite a bit on Tunnel of Love. The deeply conflicted songs - "Brilliant Disguise," "Two Faces," "Tunnel of Love," "One Step Up" - seem to have been written as reflections of Springsteen's failing marriage to Julianne Phillips. A somber and underrated album (much like Darkness on the Edge of Town), these are some of his most thoughtful songs and most intimate performances.

In 1998 Q magazine readers voted Tunnel of Love the 91st greatest album of all time.
