HUMAN TOUCH
Human Touch is the ninth studio album by Bruce Springsteen. The album was released on March 31, 1992. The album was co-released on the same day as Lucky Town. It was the more popular of the two, and it peaked at number two on the Billboard 200, with "Human Touch" (paired with Lucky Town's "Better Days") peaking at number one on the Mainstream Rock chart and #16 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. "Human Touch" has since sold over one million copies in the United States. "Human Touch" was nominated for Best Rock Vocal Performance at the 1993 Grammy Awards. -Wikipedia

Rolling Stone
Beginning with the pulsing title track, which stands among Springsteen’s best work, the fourteen songs on Human Touch explore the movement from disenchanted isolation to a willingness to risk love and its attendant traumas again.

All Music
Human Touch was an uninspired Bruce Springsteen album, his first that didn't at least aspire to greatness
-
Anti Music
If there was ever an album in Springsteen's cannon I'd love to see him revisit and re-record, it would be Human Touch.

Springsteen’s Most Underrated Gem

Entertainment Weekly
Strained and verbose, both Lucky Town and Human Touch are his most confused albums since his 1973 debut.

somewhat of a letdown

There is nothing terrible here; it’s just not up to his normal standards.

Human Touch is only for the Bruce completists

NY Times
In the end, "Human Touch" and "Lucky Town" offer the twanging, stomping, pensive, troubled, well-crafted sound of retreat.

The "middle" of the album is very strong.

Movies and Music Reviewed
The sound is a real departure from the sound that can be heard on E Street but it isn’t always a bad thing.

I still predict Human Touch will be better appreciated with hindsight
