Vintage Sesame street - Born to Add (Bruce Springsteen)

[littlelukeify1]

Take it Clarence!!!

[sweetlife031]

The intro is identical to Jungleland and it spoofs 3 classics, not one :)

Gotta love it!

[BklynBruzer]

It's some bizarre mix of Jungleland, Thunder Road, and Born to Run, and it's awesome.

[covadonga4242]

funny!!!!

[aboutashow]

I had this on tape! I think I'm going to go put it on my itunes...

[RocknBeatles]

This is like a combination of jungleland and born to run

[wimscheers]

Never seen a better impersonation of the Boss. Then again, who could ever do the boss but a leather jacket puppet?

[malaris60]

Does anyone know the chords to this?

[miguel2096]

thank's

[TelephoneRock4ever]

Nice! Very nice!

No one can sing like Chrissy Cerf.

[Ragachan]

Okay, I know this isn't really Springsteen, but I'm sure if they had asked him, he would have done it. Can you imagine Bruce performing this as a joke at one of his concerts? Guaranteed crowd pleaser!

[PowerThirteen]

@Ragachan That would be great. :D

[leticianischang]

i hear its the 'thing' to be.

[Monkeytender]

Plenty of us adders out here on the Jersey Shore.

[thefuture115]

I love the green cop's reaction when he sees "Bruce".

[JGCooney]

Which Sesame Street episode featured this immediately after the Sesame Street Theme instead of going to a street scene? I believe it was the first airing of the song.

[bbyphat808]

OMG i remember watching this when i was little :)

[pinballizzard]

Sounds like Jungleland!

[superhaloaddict]

begining piano is

[ranudson]

love it when the cops start dancing

[TheLadyBugg8]

Ditto that!! I'm laughing so hard right now!!

[amsedelm]

This so funny. Wonder if Bruce had to give permission somehow.

[Markutang]

I guess.. When they did Letter B with the Beetles, I guess they had to pay a fine for not asking the Beatles.. Around 50 dollars.. -.-

[sweetlife031]

@Markutang

Yeah...CTW almost got sued for that one...geesh!

[sugarydonkey]

What do you fucking think, idiot?

[DeadSeaNavigator]

Probably not - it's not musically similar enough to Born to Run to be considered copyright infringement. The arrangement's very similar, but the chords and melody are very different.

[sk1mmyj1mmy]

And even if it is.. who the hells gonna sue sesame street?

[marinoshulagreise]

the funny thing is, it actually sounds like bruce, or a song he could potentially have written

[anotherjoshua]

wonder why springsteen was never on the show?

[markmcd333]

I remember this from when I was a kid. Maybe it's the beer, but what a great clip. Better than anyone who tries to copy the Boss.

[sweetlife031]

@markmcd333

Chris Cerf is voicing the Bruce puppet :)

\

[LeftSock06]

Wow, listen to Galdys go! What a solo. :)

[LeftSock06]

I meant Gladys. :)

[boffinme80]

Gladys??

This is Bruce Springseen. What are you on about??

[candyfairy67]

She was not called Gladys. She was Clarice. Which she is here.

[EzkmaN]

Do you mean Clarence? Who is actually a "he"

[XxIAmRedeemedxX]

In this it's Clarice and it's a she. So no, do not ruin it.

[XDeathNoteMasterX]

@XxIAmRedeemedxX

omggggggggggggggggggg!!!!! remember when we did this in the streets?!!! xD!!!!!!!!!!

[XxIAmRedeemedxX]

@XDeathNoteMasterX

xDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

[lucacimarusti]

It sounds more like Peter Criss than Bruce.

[amorphous829]

2:24 Best. love the blue round head cop dancing, and Clarence's hair thrash dance.

[lilkenobi]

lol i don't know why but i couldn't stop laughing at the trash can part

[TheGreatDoon]

It's weird watching this....this clip is from 79....I was born in 79...This clip is the same age as I am....find something the same for youself/selves. You'll know what I am talking about.

Cheers.

[Bezeau30]

I love the Jungleland intro

[Oddurb]

That's not a bad version of that classic Springsteen song. I've heard musicians trash it but this is fairly decent...and quite hilarious.

[simonizer888]

Who are you? The curator from the Metropolitan Museum of Trash? "Not a bad lamp post..."

[sass1177]

omg i love that so much

[TheStapleGunKid]

Hehe, I've always considered Springsteen to be somewhat of a muppet, so this song works out great.
