True Springsteen fanatics (of which I am one) get all kinds of upset over Bruce's recordings with the "faux band", but I honestly think much of what was on Lucky Town and Human Touch was among his very best in terms of songwriting talent. This song just sends a chill down my spine--it's that good.
I read an interview where Van Morrison says that Bruce Springteen has made a career copying him. I love them both and I don't see the comparison just a shame Van had to say that.
Just watch and listen to the maestro at work...Springsteen is the greatest songwriter of my lifetime. The combination of melody, arrangement and poetic lyrics which get right into the herat and soul of the listener is unmatchable. He has been churning out masterpieces for nigh on 40 years and there is more left in the tank. Nobody has even came close to the boss in my opinion.
this is my song anymore, every girl I ever want, she never shows the same interest. one of em is dating my best friend. I am really wanting to give up, and admit that I am meant to be alone, and not have the missing part of the soul filled by finding the girl.
I always thought it would be so cool if this song had a version with Clarence playing a long wailin' sax solo. But as was said below, this was during the years away from the Band.. Fantastic song anyway, I love it.
A perfect song -- and proof that radio really stinks. Thirty years ago, this would have been played and played and everyone would know it and love it. Today, it's unknown except to Bruce fans. A masterpiece, easily in his Top 10 greatest songs.
Probably his most unappreciated masterpiece. The yearning for the love of someonelses woman. If it hasn't happened to you, then you haven't lived enough yet. Max is such a rock steady drummer.
Human Touch is widely believed by fans to be his weakest album. Once that judgment is made, justified or not, a classic song like, I Wish I Were Blind," can easily be lost amongst the criticism.
I went to see him in dublin last year but this year i couldnt afford to go cause work is scarce. hard times. after hearing this song again im gonna have to come up with something to go and see him in the US.
i love all bruces music,but i hate this band,they play well,but they dnt suit bruce at all,an look like a pack of bad guys from a old computer game!Any1 agree!??E street all the way i say!
I was about 14 at the time this was out, and though I was aware of Bruce, it was uncool at that age to like his music (at least for me)...fast forward and I've slowly acquired most all of his music, most recently finding the early 90's stuff on mint cond. vinyl(!) Anyway, setting aside a few weak songs on Human Touch, I'm really liking some of this material, this song being really outstanding...BTW saw him a few months ago, totally kickin' ass!!
These eyes that once filled me with your beauty March 7th 2008 at Hsbc arena Buffalo NY ...will be filled again when I see you in Giants stadium July 28th 2008 !!! Muahhhhhhhhhh
Bruce , you are amazing ! But sometimes I wish I was blind !!! in this whole ....... fucking ......... world ! And everything, is so beautiful ! Bu a lot of the people , no way ! ! Money, money !!!
