  • kinda spoilt by the stables next door (listen out for the horse trotting - can't miss it)

  • album or cd  is the way it is

  • i cant find fuck all with all these covers, this is the best video of the song cuz its actually him, not some random lad who can play a piano

  • narb

  • @mikebowden28 1 Year on, and its fucking worse. Searching for half an hour for it.

  • @mikebowden28 I know, it's fucking annoying to not find a single actual Bruce song in amidst all the covers.

  • whre can i find the original sound of this song becuase all i see is piano lessons and bullshit.

    enyone knows how to find the originla video or song?!?!?!???

    ???????/??/???

  • yeah i agree with you and when you find out can you kindly let me know as it is a great song but everyone seems to be ruining it with their own versions.

  • i agree. anyone know where we can find the song, not these shitty piano covers

  • Any of you considered buying the album the song is on...? Foreign concept these days.. I know.

  • Check out Frankie Moreno and his band perform this Bruce Hornsby song! Go to either BetsysView or Frankie Moreno~ The Way It Is (Bruce Hornsby). Tell me Frankie isn't great! And check out his piano work!!!

  • I saw this show - great! and I saw him again last night at the same venue. Nice and small. It was hilarious when he invited the "ladies" up to dance on the stage. At first i think everyone thought he was kidding. THen folks descended onto the stage and Bruce was like, where did all these people come from!? There was hardly enough room for him to play his squeezebox. Great show - as always

  • Maybe you can help me. At the show there in 2008, what song did he play into from "White-Wheeled Limosine"?

  • EEK! Sorry Seththebeaver! I didn't pay close enough attn to note the setlist/transitions. Wish I could help, but I just can't. I'm sure some other fan diligently wrote the setlist - keep searching!

  • i love this song especially the piano part. i love this peacefull version. theres another one by tupac and i hate it. this is more relaxing. i give it 5 stars!!!

  • i love his music

    hes my couson.

    :)

    alot of us hornsby's have talent and we r in the milatary .

  • love it, love his music

  • Sonny Emory on Drums!!!

  • He plays with his piano

    He plays with his audience

    He plays with his own songs

    Thats why i love this guy :D

  • Love this guy!

  • god damn this man can rock so hard

  • LOL

  • 2pac used his songs for his sampler

    2pac used a sampler from this song for his song "changes"

  • pac didn't even produce changes...he was dead...Amaru entertainment produced the song

  • aaaaaw thats what i´m talking about

  • Bruce Hornsby is one of the greatest musicians of our time. I never tire of his music no matter how he chooses to present it. The sign of a great player is the ability to play the same song thousands of times and never do it the same way twice. We're lucky that he shares it with us.

  • ...And I guess That's Just The Way It Is.

  • sparkyfoley that was funny. Bruces beauty is that he never seems to play the same thing twice. He is total originality every time. Just have fun and dig it. Bruce is an American treasure. I am a keyboard player and love Bruces stuff. I'll never know 1/100th of what this guy does. He is a joy to watch live, it seems so effortless but there is a lot of brilliance you and I can only imagine going on there.

  • haha its so easy to tell the people that have never played an instrument before....improvising is what music is all about thats how the song came to be....the version on a cd is just one of the improvisations that sounded the best at the time

  • timeless masterpiece,

    played with the grateful Dead too,

    this good Canadian........

    5*, all the way(it is)!

  • i think you critics need too go take your face for a shit

  • utter crud! i could play better and i cant play! alot to be said for recording studios with all the gadgets! yes you can sing but can you realy pay or were you pissed? come on what a racket!

  • This may sound a bit harsh, but when people pay for you concerts, they expect to get what they know from the cd! So cut you interests as an artist, and give the people what they pay for!

    If you want something new, just give a new name!

  • I think he's one of the best piano players ever but I also somewhat. He's probably sick of the song since he's been playing it since I've been born.

    If you're going to improve though Bruce, try a little harder :)

  • I agree with you some what. I had a disappointing experience with Bruce Springsteen's "Born in the USA" when I saw him live. I've always loved that song, and I thought he would play the song that I loved. Unfortunately, I could only recognize it by the lyrics when he played it. As for "The Way It Is" Its a song that should always be done the same way in my opinion. I do a version of it, where I try to carbon copy the studio version. check it out if you're interested.

  • this may sound harsh too....your a fuckin idiot...bred of your idiot mother and idiot father .......what a family of idiots.......fuck you...

  • i dont think you understand. If someone wanted to hear the cd, they could just buy the cd. live shows are about creating variations on what is already there. otherwise a musicians get really really bored! that comment you made was horrible. so consider yourself educated now! cheers.

  • That is the beauty of a concert. If you want to hear the song verbatim, go buy the CD! He is a legend, and as a drummer and pianist, I believe creating this latin-jazz feel is a good change. I agree that some artists really screw up their songs during concerts, but this one is a great variation. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion and you know pleasing everone at a concert is an impossible challenge.

  • You are actually quite wrong. A professional musician will always do a live concert different from the CD. This makes the show unqiue. I know I wouldn't want to pay to hear the same as the CD, what is the point? I went and saw a concert where the band sounded just like the CD and it was aweful and a waste of my money.

  • soccor200td: I agree with you. Saw him and Ricky Skaggs and the Kentucky Thunder great great great.

    And had different with odd little turns. Spiced up the bluegrass with a twist of jazz and blues in the mix. I loved it!

  • bruce....more bluegrass...

  • 最高!!

  • I hope that you consider coming back with The Range and sounding as you did back in the day. it's because it's still so real and relavant today! you had a phenominal message that is even more important for everyone to hear and listen to again today. The old music brings back fond memories, and now as older adults we can appreciate your lyrics so much more! those who loved you back in the day will love you sooo much more now if you come back to them the way they remember you!!

  • AWESOME!!!!

  • This guy is unbelievable! What a piano man!!

  • awesomeness..... that is Bruce Hornsby!

  • One of those rare moments where the artistic performance and the beautiful message are so parallel

    This is made from pure M A G I C ....

  • love to see the original

  • 2pac-changes

  • Can some1 put up the original video 2 this song plz? it used 2 b on here somewhere

  • WOW! this is a great version!!!

  • Great video!!! Beautiful song!!! Amazing piano!!!

  • Pure Genius, what else can be said?

  • Thanks so much for this.
