gee you peple are brainwashed. give criminal obama who with his criminal mates is destroying the middle east!! how the fuck do you people live in such ignorant shit? You dont see the children blown to bits by US Bombs do you?? NO your media is FUCKEN CONTROLLED!
Must be crap to be a US Republican, knowing your greatest musical artist of the last 35 years is probably a Socialist, probably would've been in front of the Mcarthy tribunals had it been in the 50's? Enjoy?Doubt it.
@farelowsky33 I wish there were more intelligent people like you here in the States. Obama's not the worst President ever, but he's really been hindered from doing much because he's been having to clean up Bush's messes and the right wingers in congress won't let anything that wasn't their idea get done.
i am not american and i don't know exactly if Obama is doing good for his country (in the meassure of what they let them do); but what i know for sure is that The idiot son of an assehole (Geroge w.bush) did more pain to the whole world than no one will ever do. I am from Barcelona (Spain, for those americans who live in a bubble).
wowww, Hello people, i am from Barcelona (Spainif you didin't associate it) i am a big Bruce's fan, and from outside you wouldn't like to know how crazy some of you people look by calling Bruce anti-american, or things like that, you are totally crazy, the ones who call Bruce traitor!! you can support whatever polititian you want.....but you are totally psicopath!!!! it's scarry hoy people in deep america and i see on the movies are totally real. You are murderers and real traitors of humanity!
I love this first, raw version. I had a dear friend from Canton drive up to watch this..I was there with her..in more ways than one. Politics is just a sultry bitch that all politicos must pay the cost. Obama inherited a mess beyond belief. It takes guts to tackle that kinda shit! Good for Bruce! Good for Obama!
Here's a reason to not like Bruce Springsteen. Supporting the state is being complicit in the crimes of the state. So if one supports Obama's wars in Afghanistan they are complicit in the crimes and the murder of those innocent people.
@Tchernowizer so, let me get this straight. the dixie chicks were traitors because they spoke out against a president. and bruce is a traitor because he speaks out for a president. i hope some of the rightys donate their brains to science so we can study them.
I've been a Bruce fan my entire young life. I still remember how awesome this was the first time I saw it. I was like "OMG WHAT IS THIS SONG?!" Then I heard it was off his new album - and that album went on to be my favorite album of all time (Yes, even more than Born In The USA or Born To Run!). I remember thinking when I got the album how much better THIS performance was than the album version. Which is rare for me - I'm not a big fan of acoustic songs. Now though they're equally awesome. :)
Hey Bulletman,Bruce can afford to go to any healthcare clinic he chooses. The rest of us should rely on being healed by the Lord at some "faith based" clinic.Right?
The Great American poser working on a dream. Now That fits to ol Bruce's true reality, of never working a day job in his lifetime or served a day in Nam while playing the peter pan of rock and roll to the tune of Born in the Usa.
you should listen the song War, of the album Live 75-85, and then you'll know why he didn't serve in Nam.... the army didn't want him, so don't blame Bruce.... and don't blame him either because he make real the american dream... land of opportunities ;)
What a great and inspiring song this is. And it makes an impact not just on North American people but on anyone who feels that this world could do alot better... So, why not dream about it? :P Bruce is the Boss! ;)
The Boss... is still the Boss. I grew up in NJ and his stuff reminds me of the good times, especially the older songs. Too bad he decided to support a bozo politician. The Boss could do a better job than what we have now.
OR he can continue making great music and Obama can get another term...
ANYWAY great song and Obama is great president. Give him time it's only been a few months he will prove to be great in time. Springsteen had to go through years of hard times before he became a renowned musician, just because someone's got talent doesn't mean they going to be able to use it right away. Bush's 8 years of bullcrap can't be reversed in 8 months as 'Ilovelucye68ny' said
You cant mend what Bush did overnight. Give Obama a chance. Voting Bush in would be like Britain making Mr Bean Prime Minister... and you did it twice for fk sake!
@demutsnuts well, 1 year ago you posted this comment...do you still stand by it? Obama has done nothing for this nation that has been good at all. He attempted to get a health care passed and he rushed it to make it look like he was doing something and it was God awful. Obama should not and I think will not be elected. He has done nothing but raise our national debt.
@buckeyesrule10 The 'debt' rhetooric I hear seems poorly informed. Bush made a decision to bail out AIG and spend an enormous amount of money to avoid depression. Obama came into office and continued that policy. The vast majority of independent economic analysts I have read agree that this was the only option that didn't result in a full-on depression. McCain would have done the same. Discussing the causes of the economic collapse is interesting, but hardly Obama's fault.

Thank you Bruce ....you have given the commom man (and woman) hope when it seems there is none. You've given me hope for many, many years.....................
seems theres a lot of crap flying around here at least bruce believes in an idea of how the world should be an idea shared by men such as obama and ted kennedy R.I.P
Geesh people...I voted for Obama and so did millions.. he won by a landslide ..do you all expect him to turn all of Bushes 8 yrs of shit around in 8 months? If you don't like Bruce and Patti's support of Obama wtf are you doing here watching this?
But the Dems controlled Congress and the budget the last 2 years of Bush's term. The Dems signed the CRA under Carter. Clinton was the one that really started forcing banks to give out the loans. How come you don't discuss that and only blame Bush?
The US gov't was shit before Bush took office. Bush didn't help improve it, but it sucked a big, fat donkey c**k before he even got there. Obama can only make it worse, just like his predecesors. The US needs a complete chnge in direction to see anything beneficial come from the gov't. Vote libertarian in '12. Freedom, guns, fewer political bozos butting in and peace!
Bush policies adopted by Obama regarding National Security: Patriot Act, Wiretaps, Military Tribunals, Predator Drone Attacks, Iraq Troop Withdraw, Afghanistan "Surge", Rendition Of Terrorists, State Secrets and Habeas Corpus Denial to name a few.
Obama is "staying the course" on US Security Policies enacted by GWB.

Bruce is a f-ing jackass for promoting an obama made-in hollywood ultra-liberal political agenda with his cheesy music scores. I can't stand him or those like him.
So it's Bruce's fault? Not funny here in UK either with 8 dead in Helmand in 5 dYS. But if asked whether Obama or Dubya would get eveyone out of it I know who I'd pick.
dwzcollege writes "rot in hell conservatives", and calls ME full of hate? Seems Obowma's poll numbers are starting to drop fast, gonna be GWB soon. Socialist healthcare takeover has split the dems and the Repubs want to work out healthcare reform in a bipartisan way that Obama and Pelosi cannot deal with. Obama has failed at every issue put forth and the polls show the American people are starting to see they've been bushwacked by crippling deficit spending & added layers of Gov bureaucracy.
fuck sake i hate the way Bruces Videos always get plastered in political debate. So fucking boring. Anyway what was the joke at the beginning from the crowd that Bruce and Patti laughed at?
Born in the USA was written as a social commentary on how crappy the States were at the time of the Vietnam War. It was just misunderstood as a patriotic "hooray for the USA!" song.
Totally, geez... How could Reagan not even get that? and that was our President? not that he wasn't a good man in his own right and everything, all due respect, but like HELLO!

How come celebrities always campaign for the guy who wants to take away working people's money and freedoms?
Obama has already raised the cigarette tax on poor people. Guns and ammo are next. Then maybe he'll raise the gas tax on poor people. He'll take every nickel from you he can and make you and your children debt slaves to Big Government. Don't doubt it for a second.
Welcome, taxpayers, to the Kabuki Theater of AIG Outrage - where DC's Best Performance of Hypocritical Indignation is showing. Spare me President Obama's finger-wag. He's "outraged?" Meh. Chris Dodd, the corporate crony who is the largest recipient of AIG donations, Obama is the 4th. If we hadn't bailed out AIG = no bonuses for greedy execs.
Bailout-a-palooza is not a good for all you naive voters that voted for hope & change without knowing what it meant. It's not American Idol, vote smart.
China's premier expressed concern, "We have made a huge amount of loans to the US. We are concerned about the safety of our assets.
The irresponsible spending by this naive halfwit actor of a president is wrecking the country faster than imaginable. Obama's $3.6 trillion plan is a "higher-tax, weaker-economy, fewer-jobs" blueprint. Major industries have become dependent on fed assistance. The spending is fueling tension between China & the U.S.
So many "smart" people don't see it, never mind the mindless minions. It started under FDR; Who put private bank insurance out of business & corrupted corporations with the hidden budget of tax deductions. The ignorant working class people that are voting Democrat today due to their Parents support of the them
Or their parasitic laziness, or their involvement with corruption.
The Dem party is owned and operated by Union thugs, Global communist, Sexual Degenerates like Barny Frank, Criminals.
Not a bright move to alienate your fans by spewing your partisan political ideology on a stage that was givin to you to make music not preach like Jim Jones about how GWB wants to take away your cheeseburger and fries. It's my choice to support or trash artists that abuse their privlege of having me as a fan. It's bad enough $pring$teen won't play the songs you come to hear, and if he does he hacks them to death because he is selfish. $pring$teen is bland and formulated wallpaper music.
Not an American but BIG deal if Bruce wants to mix politics with his music. He still a human being with ideas and preferences, if you don't like it then fine that's your choice BUT not his problem.
Springtseen is ANYTHING but bland and formulated, in fact he's probably THE best thing musically you Americans still have...
All the US Presidents have been failling since Ronald Reagan. Reagan was the last President that overhauled the income tax code, which eliminated many deductions and exempted millions of people with low incomes. At the end of his administration, the Nation was enjoying its longest recorded period of peacetime prosperity without recession or depression. Ronald Reagan spoke for the American people. He appealed to your best hopes, not your worst fears. Not like this new moron we have.
Obama will spend more in 15 months than Bush did in 8 years, with 2 wars 9\11 and the tech bubble bursting. Your partisan perspective is blinding you from reality. The government said that the pace of economic decline was actually 6.2% this quarter, making it the worst quarter since 1982. This is just the start of Obama ripping all the Capitolist wallpaper off the walls and spackling Socialist dung on them. A disconnect between the White House and the grim realities of everyday American life.
(Reuters) Beginning next year when much of the stimulus package is spent -- the economy still won't be strong enough to stand on its own. By late 2010, the specter of a second dip into recession will be looming large," said Merrill Lynch economist Sheryl King. Wall Street fears that the financial crisis is worsening. Major industries have become dependent on fed assistance, & they will be bearing mind-boggling requests, Warren Buffett wrote.
Ok I see everybody on here is arguing about stuff but I just want to say this is an amazing song the melody is simply infectious. However I can appreciate Bruce wanting to have his woman with him and all but her singing is just terrible.
As to actual work, according to Time Magazine, Springsteen labored for a few weeks at age 18 as a gardener. And that was it. By the early '70s, he had left his leafy death trap behind and was busily reinventing himself as a Dylanesque folk singer/songwriter in Greenwich Village.

I hope he's proud that he helped brainwash America into letting Obama sell off the county for political power. Now we can all get Gov. jobs and waste our salaries going to see Bruce & the Sha Na Na band in concert.
Bruce's political view is GREAT! For all you dumm ignorant Americans! Wake up and do something....Obama is the most transparant guy EVER in your White House! Help him work on his and your Dream!!!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
No they're not. He is living in an impossible world. Unlike most celebrities, he understands the symptoms but doesn't understand the root of the country's ills and thus doesn't understand that Obama's "solutions" are counterproductive.
Whether you like them or not, you can't say that they're not good at what they do. Just like whether or not you like Country, you have to admit that The Oak Ridge Boys are good at what they do.
Well, I guess it's just oppinions. But, the one thing that bothers me about Bruce is that he's always wanting to sing and preach about politics. Many people for some reason have compared Bruce to KISS. Well, KISS doesn't EVER talk about "Well I support this". They just play music and stay unbiased.
Bruce is one of the worlds best songwriters. He a very under-rated artist. And deserves more respect than some people have given him in these comments. Without Bruce we would still be stuck in the disco era!
I absolutely love Bruce....my favorite for about 25 years...saw him so many times. I would argue though, that Bruce is hardly under rated....never has been, never will be....comments made by a few Youtube dildos don't change the fact that he is probably the most influential artist in the last 40 years.
Whys everyone arguing? its a great song. he's a good musician, and he's playing for an important person in the history of the world (Obama) its a great thing, no need to have petty arguments about, just enjoy the music
Does anyone here recall the Dolly Pardon, &c. condemnation of the Bush FCC's whitespace spectrum reallocation? Springsteen is a shill for his industry; his endorsment of Obama will reflect what the media companies hope to get from the NEW FCC--no whitespace broadband. All the techies who think that the Obama presidency will lead to whitespace broadband will get a very rude surprise, when Obama follows his media-industrial masters' wishes on this issue.
At least Bruce is doing something to try and make a change for the better..to help put hope in the hearts of those who need it. It's not like Johnny Cash really spent time in prison, but he sang about the problems of criminals..yahoo...Bruce is a musical icon...left-right wing, who gives a crap..think for yourself..I have to appreciate he atleast knows what he wants and works for it. I dont see very many other americans getting off there butts to make a difference. soldiers not included.

This 1995 folk album proved that silliness was no obstacle to winning the Grammy. The album may also have helped assuage the Bosss conscience about the $14 million LA mansion in which he lived. Indeed, had he really been interested in economic justice and civil rights, as he boasts.
like a soldier in the winters night Bruce is nothing more than a leftwing stooge. A Boss whos never punch a timeclock who watch Vietnam on TV when soldiers were actually being killed. The Peter pan of Rock and roll for those who dont want to grow up and deal with reality.
You hit it on the nose Grunt6869. Don't these singers realize we listen to them to hear their music. We could care less about their liberal politics. Springsteen can sing but what a loser in the real world. Now that the election is over maybe he can team up with Al Gore and tackle the made up Global Warming problem! Hey Al, Bruce, have you noticed we are having one of the coldest winters in many many years. Losers!
Speak for yourself. I listen for his point of view. Whose point of view I could do without is yours. Excellent scientific work, by the way. Your ability to sit in your living room and evaluate the state of the global environment is outstanding. You are a true genius. moron.
I hope you use the same zeal against Hank Williams Jr, who basically went around the country trying to bang Palin. At least Springsteen isn't some wanker who got famous off his dad.
hallotommy: go shoot you self... bruce is a legend nobody will ever replace this awesome songwriter. what makes him special is that the fame he is getting don't mess with him, and that he still is abel to make awesome music.

been listening to the great mans new album if youve enjoyed it MAYBE LOOK FOR STATUS QUOS ALBUM UNDER THE INFLUENCE ITS COUNTRY BLUESSY A DIFFERENT ALBUM FROM THE QUO CHEERS WHITEQUO
Ive actually served in Vietnam and worked in a factory and as for Ideals check my Superbowl special with Mitch Ryder.20 years ahead of Bruce ever playing its halftime. By the way I turned 2I while serving in Nam<as I still think Bruce dreams he was there. Now that's sad.
Even in grade school we learned that opinions are ok if you back them up. People like you just make up stories. I can smell shit a mile away. Bruce never wanted to go to war.Idiot
if wat u say is true, than he is singing for people like you, and using his increadible God given talent to give a voice to you, and you resent it because he didn't actually experiance it. . . cant you give him some creadit for caring. He really dosn't have to care. The man has it made as it is.
I write my own lyrics and paint my own pictures through my own experience of tasting my own blood.Dont need a poser ,the PeterPan of Rock and roll to explain life from his limited perspective and experiences to that of one who has actually live it.
yeah, you dont need a poster, but the majority of people who havent lived it do, so they turn to Springsteen. He doesn't claim to have been there either. But since you seem to have trouble understanding this, just think of him as a guy who successfully raises awareness about the things that people usually tend to avoid
I adore him, but I like the studio copy with him alone, to me it was from the heart. As much as I like her, it sounds 1000 percent better without her. "We love you Bruce".
gee you peple are brainwashed. give criminal obama who with his criminal mates is destroying the middle east!! how the fuck do you people live in such ignorant shit? You dont see the children blown to bits by US Bombs do you?? NO your media is FUCKEN CONTROLLED!

But the Dems controlled Congress and the budget the last 2 years of Bush's term. The Dems signed the CRA under Carter. Clinton was the one that really started forcing banks to give out the loans. How come you don't discuss that and only blame Bush?

The US gov't was shit before Bush took office. Bush didn't help improve it, but it sucked a big, fat donkey c**k before he even got there. Obama can only make it worse, just like his predecesors.

Bush policies adopted by Obama regarding National Security: Patriot Act, Wiretaps, Military Tribunals, Predator Drone Attacks, Iraq Troop Withdraw, Afghanistan "Surge", Rendition Of Terrorists, State Secrets and Habeas Corpus Denial to name a few.
Obama is "staying the course" on US Security Policies enacted by GWB.

All the US Presidents have been failling since Ronald Reagan. Reagan was the last President that overhauled the income tax code, which eliminated many deductions and exempted millions of people with low incomes. At the end of his administration, the Nation was enjoying its longest recorded period of peacetime prosperity without recession or depression. Ronald Reagan spoke for the American people. He appealed to your best hopes, not your worst fears. Not like this new moron we have.

Obama will spend more in 15 months than Bush did in 8 years, with 2 wars 9\11 and the tech bubble bursting. Your partisan perspective is blinding you from reality. The government said that the pace of economic decline was actually 6.2% this quarter, making it the worst quarter since 1982. This is just the start of Obama ripping all the Capitolist wallpaper off the walls and spackling Socialist dung on them. A disconnect between the White House and the grim realities of everyday American life.

U.S. rescue efforts may risk double-dip recession
(Reuters) Beginning next year when much of the stimulus package is spent -- the economy still won't be strong enough to stand on its own. By late 2010, the specter of a second dip into recession will be looming large," said Merrill Lynch economist Sheryl King. Wall Street fears that the financial crisis is worsening.

As to actual work, according to Time Magazine, Springsteen labored for a few weeks at age 18 as a gardener. And that was it. By the early '70s, he had left his leafy death trap behind and was busily reinventing himself as a Dylanesque folk singer/songwriter in Greenwich Village.

Does anyone here recall the Dolly Pardon, &c. condemnation of the Bush FCC's whitespace spectrum reallocation? Springsteen is a shill for his industry; his endorsment of Obama will reflect what the media companies hope to get from the NEW FCC--no whitespace broadband. All the techies who think that the Obama presidency will lead to whitespace broadband will get a very rude surprise, when Obama follows his media-industrial masters' wishes on this issue.
