[gibbo6985]

Awesome version Stingman....you can see that Bruce was very impressed and moved.

[m5181]

I've nver been a fan of Sting, either as a solo artist or with The Police but this is a great version of one of Springsteen's best songs.

[annahrwth242]

@geppinosh I know, right?..and I have seen Bruce over ten times..and this cover is awesome!!

0:18

when you close your eyes and purse your lips, the music flows so...so smoothly through your head.

[adamgibson1970]

Amazing

[loftusboy9]

you know you've created the perfect song when someone as great as Sting is performs the song exactly as you did..Bruce was visibly moved by Sting's tribute,as indeed were the crowd..so big well done to Sting,this was excellent..amazing to see one legend of rock praise another legend in this manner,,,so big well done to Sting..

[regisintaiwan]

Sting does a great job here.

Great tribute to the Boss

[CMurray1124]

I may be the only one but for me this song (and a lot of the stuff off that album really) is tied so closely to 9/11...it's a great song and really perfect fo r what NY and the nation went through that day <3 Really top notch stuff even after all these years.

[twins8956]

sting is some performer and we brits are very proud of him ,and to see bruce so visibly moved by is wonderful song says it all ,sting you brought the house down well done .

[cesarr956]

The guy at 2:48 was so moved he had a stroke!

[uweyvi7]

@cesarr956 That's Bill Irwin. He's an incredible actor, dancer, singer and clown (member of the International Clown Hall of Fame). Irwin also played the role of Mr. Noodle on Sesame Street.

[asburystan]

That is some performance from Sting to get the whole audience on their feet in under 3 mins. Some tribute!

[ripcalwill]

Seeing the Boss so visibly moved is wonderful. His songs are incredible and Sting and the chorus take this song tot he top!

[IlliniJake]

dreadful

[gbfan17]

Great !!!!!

[zallcatraz]

Who is the girl with glasses behind bruce?

[alyse1969]

my favorite part is when they all start cheering "bruuuuuuuce" at the end and bruce does his nervous little embarrassed laugh. so freaking cute!!! : )

my 2nd favorite part is watching the president stand up as he's decided to dance to mr. springsteen's work! love it!! : )

[alyse1969]

ulysses s. grant - THAT is hysterical!

[HiredGoon001]

Sting did an excellent job of sucking the soul right out of this great song.

[edjew]

and on base tonight: obi wan kenobi!

Respect to Bruce & ESB. Tribute well deserved.

[sharon012490]

very very well deserved

[contact1araya]

Woa the  man in charge stood up..........

[waynefoolx]

never been a big Sting fan but man does he ever kill it here...well done sir

[nafneeuq7]

How did Don't Know Why beat this for the Grammy?

[Tunnelof]

Great cover

[Annonymus121]

I haven't heard much of sting since the police man has his voice changed, sounds great though!

[EuphrasieF]

@Annonymus121

He lost the falsetto voice he had in the 80s, but you can still tell it's him.

[vvjm1221]

Bruce is the perfect person to play Bruce's music; Sting+Bruce is the second perfect; and Sting is the third : )

[SteveC515]

guarantee you bruce is just dyeing there. All he wants to do is rock out with everyone

[libertyordeaf]

You know you've made it big when Ulysses S. Grant covers one of your songs.

[mdsftx]

@libertyordeaf - Now THAT's funny!! Laughed out loud on that. He does kinda favor Grant except for the blonde hair. 

[jeff4bucks]

@libertyordeaf lol

[jack3putt]

@libertyordeaf I love it.

[lurchpappy]

@libertyordeaf that's hilarious!!!

[zo219]

@libertyordeaf One of the top ten youtube comments ever.

[mrbriscoe2001]

@libertyordeaf funny line-even though both Springsteen AND Sting are Gods to me..

[libertyordeaf]

@mrbriscoe2001 There was no disrespect meant to either. Actually, my wife and I had songs from both Bruce and Sting at our wedding.

[mrbriscoe2001]

@libertyordeaf no biggie;i bet even Sting would have laughed: a great,inspired line Sting and Springsteen songs at your wedding?  Let me guess: Fields of Gold, was one of those songs,right?.

[libertyordeaf]

@mrbriscoe2001 Bingo. Although now I come to think of it, we had the Eva Cassidy version, not the Sting original. The Springsteen song was If I Should Fall Behind.

[sexygeek101]

I believe that Bruce is the perfect person to play Bruce's Music

[md1456]

Sting is the Perfect person to play Bruce's Music

[babuwhite2010]

@md1456 You can't be serious!?!

[eqsmooth]

Sergeant Popwell's great big bushy beard.

Is it me or does Bruce have Sling Blade's chin.

[CofieldW04]

I such a great time singing in that choir for Bruce

[darkflower2]

@CofieldW04 OMG! That must have been absolutely exhilarating!

[Adaw101]

@CofieldW04 yea it was a great time! I sang in it too!

[phillyfan6john]

I like the two white people in the choir

[gaftfreak]

@phillyfan6john Sting is an equal opportunity employer :)

[mattyboy1017]

he really is "the boss" looking over the masses as they sing along. he deserves it

[Josip633]

it must be amazing to have all these people singing your songs and celebrating your life and music... great!

[bugattibowler]

Yeah, Sting was awesome. Melissa too.

[aloofbooks]

Melissa rocked!

[firesermon22]
