Pete Yorn "Your Own Worst Enemy" - Hangin' Out On E Street

[Tunnelof]

Good cover,thanks

[langley1224]

bruces version is awesome and petes is awesome too in a different way. the lyrics are just great.

[mcslipknot89]

this is good but bruces is better, ppl keep compaining tht this is better as an acoustic song but if u listen 2 magic (which is an amazing album), its a rock album and an acoustic version like petes wudnt really fit with the rest of the album

[redsunset1978]

like this....not as good as the original tho

[jpf8985]

Going out on a limb... I think this cover is better than the album version. This song is much more suited to a solo acoustic arrangement. Pete even does a great cover (of the first verse) of Atlantic City. I don't know what it is, he finds ways to make Bruce's songs sound better.

[traxvis]

You're smoking crack. Pete's good and all, but...

[jpf8985]

I can appreciate your purist view on Bruce's songs, but it's a mediocre song -- for Bruce. This song is much better acoustically. He knew not to cover a song that should not be covered (anything from "Nebraska" and earlier) Pete was good at one time -- his original material is getting consistently worse. He's definitely the artist best suited to cover Bruce, though.

[jpf8985]

Scratch that. Anything pre-"Nebraska." I think that songs from "Nebraska" are tailor made for Pete to cover.

[traxvis]

I hear ya. I can appreciate what you're saying. After all, Brooce posted it for us all to enjoy.

[measuringtape123]

lol i really laughed when i read this... the thing about bruce is his imense passion with his deeply rugged and soulful voice, this guy is average at a push no passion in his voice at all but if you like plain and mediocre music each to there own...

[jpf8985]

I don't think that Pete is infallible, but he has made some well-above-average work. Musicforthemorningafter, his first album, is great! IMO, one of the best folk-rock records, this decade. His voice does have a laziness to it when you compare it to Bruce in the 70's and 80's. But, there isn't much passion in Bruce's version of this song either. I thought it was a total filler on Magic, and I think Pete did it justice, especially with the solo arrangement.

[creed61285]

@jpf8985 I completely concur. Especially with the Music for the Morning After assessment. His follow up albums' lack of greatness have kept the first one from being remembered that well, but it was fantastic.

[nmitchell076]

Ne1 who doesn't think Nebraska could be covered should listen to Levon Helm's (drummer for The Band) doing Atlantic City. I think there's a version on Youtube that has him and Sam Bush doing it at merlefest. BLEW ME AWAY! That is one of the few songs I would say is better than the original.

I do think that Springsteen should record an acoustic version of this song and release it, cause it works much better acoustically then electrically

[veryindirectly]

niiice!

[azibabat]

I love this music !

[langley1224]

i think it;s cool he did a newer song.

[Tunnelof]

Good

[naypats]

i think this is my favourite vid from Hangin' Out on E street so far! though i thought tegan and sara's Dancing in the Dark was pretty cool.

[rejoinet]

best cover ever :D

[DavidLapthorne]

a very nice take on the song. great cover :)

[langley1224]

this rules.

[yanksb4life]

Such an underrated song... Bruce, bring this and I'll Work For Your Love out on the WOAD tour please!

[KleWdSide]

Sorry, but this cover blows and I don't understand why it's on Springsteen's website. Am I the only one who thinks it's pointless?

[oscartina]

I know, you should post your cover of this song, I'm sure it's amazing.

[KleWdSide]

Sorry.. it's just not very good

[oscartina]

I know, that's why I'm waiting to hear your version of it.

[KleWdSide]

So, in order to make a negative criticism.. I have to have a cover of my own? But, if it was positive.. I wouldn't have to??? That doesn't make any sense...

[oscartina]

I'm agreeing with you, Bruce Springsteen's version is awful. You don't have to post your version, but I'm sure it's amazing, that's all I'm trying to say. Jeez, I try to be nice and just get along , I even complimented you look where it gets me.

[KleWdSide]

The Boss rocks. And I'll admit I was actually glad to hear "Your Own Worst Enemy" live in Seattle last year. Call me nuts...

[oscartina]

who is nut's? I haven't heard his version, is it any good?

[canfor5]

Although I may got this once already..I'm glad to hear it agian. He does a fine job. As for me? I'm most likely my "worst enemy" at the best of times! :)

[cheggie]

[TL8706]

When I saw that Pete Yorn was goin to be a part of this I almost shouted in excitement. He didn't disappoint.

[tcrangle963]
