The Glory Days of 1985

This is not a case of misunderheard lyrics.  I heard correctly.  I got it, but it's subtle.  Let me explain.
The song "1985" by Bowling for Soup is about a woman who is having a midlife crisis of sorts.  She had all sorts of plans for her life which never came to fruition.  She is living a normal, middle-class existence, but would rather be back in her younger years when she had all sorts of grandiose ideas of what she would do and how she would be famous. 
The song is full of references of what was popular in the 1980s, and the chorus lists popular singers from that era--the first singer listed being Bruce Springsteen.
In May of 1985 Bruce Springsteen released a single called "Glory Days".  This song talks about some people who sit and relive the "glory days" of their youth. The words of the chorus are as follows: "Glory days, well they'll pass you by
Glory days, in the wink of a young girl's eye
Glory days, glory days."
 So the song "1985" is about a woman thinking back to her glory days of 1985--the actual year the song "Glory Days" was released by Bruce Springsteen.
Coincidence?  I think not.
Well played.
