  • Can anybody tell me where and how i can get this (the best) version of this song on DVD, bluray or anything?

  • Thank you this is just the best footage of this song amazing beautiful lead and especially the intro most hypnotic he ever wrote Bruce is the greatest! There are probably STILL people out there who don't know what a incredible guitarist he was and IS! Most passionate, desirous song musically.

  • Thanks for posting this great Bruce Springsteen classic. The sheet music for Roy Bittan's wonderful piano part on "Because the Night" can be found at manymidi.com/sheetmusic.htm - a note-for-note transcription.

  • 25 seconds into it and already sounds fucking epic

  • This may be the best intro to this song I've ever heard. I think his '78 intros to Prove It All Night are probably his all time best. But this is a great one itself. The lyrics have evolved over the years, but this is classic Springsteen. Thanks for posting it!

  • @Lonewolf3165 I agree completely.

    The versions of "Backstreets, with the, "Sad Eyes/You Lied," interlude, and the Buddy Holly tribute, "Not fade Away/She's the One," are also pretty special stunning at many of those Darkness shows.

    I recommend Passaic (9/19/78), Winterland 12/15/78), and the Fox in Atlanta (9/30/78), all radio broadcasts, so the sound is superb.

  • @Lonewolf3165 If you don't have these boots e-mail me and i'll...help.

  • I just had my first orgasm! 

  • fantastic

  • absolute pure passion folks!

  • it doesn't get any better!!!!!

  • Are you insane? He wrote the song and these are the exact lyrics. When he gave it to Patti Smith she changed two lines (and talk about gratious - he gave her co-authorship).

    He has written over 500 songs and released about 300. He played over 170 songs on his recent tour - about 130 of his own and 40 covers. NO ONE could remember all those lyrics. He uses a screen on the stage floor to ensure he gets the lyrics right and rarely makes a mistake.

    Period.

  • song legend voice legend ..

  • LEGENDARY!!!!!!!!!!

  • Comment removed

  • Bruce gave this song to Patti Smith in 78 and she wrote her own lyrics in addition to what Bruce had given her. Bruce's own version has always been this video.

  • he wrote the song dude 'he can do what ever with it.

  • :-D ... he wrote the fucking song, this is just an early version of the song. he had perhaps different lyrics in the beginning than the lyrics Patti in the end used on her album.

  • bruce is the power of a v8 engine i have neva seen anybody with so much passion this is why bruce is THE BOSS...im sorry but bruces solo eats all the other great s guitar players solos by far..power = BOSS

  • especially santana's solos. you the man philip

  • ....This is Before Bruce got RICH!!!.... Bands always sound better when they are Still Hungry !  ( sometimes literally....)....

  • I heard Bruce has recently became an atheist.

  • And where did you hear that?

    In your own warped mind!

  • @Stringbender666 So you don't like his politics. That's fine. Making up or passing olong lies about him, without attribution, is not and you should be ashamed. Did you make that up or is it Rush Limbaugh, Glen Beck, Sean Hannitty, or Bill O'Rielly's lie?

    I doubt is you know what, "McCarthyism" is. Look it up. (Simply type it into google.)"

  • @Stringbender666 He doesn't believe in himself? :/

  • This video deserves 7,000,000 views, not 7,000. Holy crap so amazing.

  • This is not the only video of this song and only user! That is why you see little video reviews!

  • Pure absolute beauty, a man and his group possesed.

  • Bruce was The Boss.

  • was?

  • Never was

  • this video is absolutely ELECTRIC! not only is the intro awesome, this is possibly the best guitar solo of any performance i have seen...thanks for the post!

  • the solo has the best sound man bruce kills it..
