  • This a patriotic song about an american who never give up!

  • @rafaelkafka Actually, it's about a man's struggle to go back living a normal life after he was used to kill people in a war he didn't believe in. It's a protest song.

  • @rafaelkafka No it's not. This song is about a Vietnam veteran overcoming physical/mental challenges brought on from the war. If you listen to the lyrics closely it protests the war, this song is about real patriotism, and being able to criticize the government if need be, speaking out against how unfair it is that the government drafted innocent men with families to go fight a pointless war against so called "communism." Think before u post next time jackass.

  • @rafaelkafka they're right buddy.

  • Comment removed

  • I miss OLD AMERICA !!

  • by international law: anyone who points out that this is an anti-war song from here on is to be slapped in the face. anyone who is literate can figure that out by now. just listen to the damn song.

  • @alevy67 Well it isn't anti-war. But it IS critical of America's treatment of veterans, especially from Vietnam.

  • @poppers112233 to that i can agree

  • Dear international over-sea's countrys we dont want war we want peace! we dont wanna kill the yellow man no more...we eat the yellow mans food and we enjoy eating yellow man food so lets bring peace and eat some yellow man food!!!!!!!!!

  • 良く聞いてたな

    懐かしいよ

    あの頃は洋楽かぶれだった

  • @sugamasa58 Sorry don't understand. We speak and write English in the USA.

  • Watch the MTV video he did for this, it shows his message even better than the song by itself. One of the best videos MTV ever showed.

  • @cairochris2 Absolutely! I was in HS when it came out, and in just a few minutes I understood more history re: Vietnam and the guys who fought there than any book I read as a teenager.....

  • Pukl, it's not simply anti-war. It's even more a protest against the way Vietnam veterans were treated on their return (basically they were hated despite not having a choice) than just the war itself. But it's also saying that, despite the errors and flaws of the government, the US is still founded on great ideals. Elements of criticism and praise, the latter directed at the ideals of the country and the former directed at the government.

  • @jasonj3100 the reason the whole econamy is in this recession is because of american banks loaning out money they didnt have sooo last thing the world needs is the brains of an american to help us earn more money

  • @jasonj3100 the reason the whole econamy is in this recession is because of american banks loaning out money they didnt have sooo last thing the world needs is the brains of an american to help us earn more money

  • born in the uk ;D but realy want to live in the USA :/

  • @mrvictory0910 This was originally a protest song against the Vietnam War. It is a product of the flower child generation when Americans were greatly again the war. It's much like in recent American history during the Iraq war. Sadly, now, my country doesn't have enough energy to protest. We are in a vegetative state. True story about this song, one then presidential canidate, I believe it was Reagan, tried to use it as his campaign song. Springsteen contacted him and conveyed the real cont.

  • @mrvictory0910 meaning of the song to him. I live in a fairly rural part of the US and sadly many people assume this is a patriotic anthem. It is not a inherently un-american song, but it is also not a ode to america. I don't mean to offend you, I just suggest you listen closer to the lyrics. Maybe I've convinced you not all Americans are idiots? Maybe? ;-)

  • America I love u so much there is no country like you. There is no country that compares to your immense, your diversity religion, freedom, I am proud to be in American lands I shall never fail u! America the great one, is big and unique and ambitious and beautiful cuz we all form THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA! ! !

  • Wow, frustrated about something? GET A LIFE!!!

  • If the US owned the world it would be a better place. No fighting, more money for everyone, no religion bullshit just money and freedom to think how you want.

  • @jasonj3100 Have you ever lived anywhere else?

  • basically what im saying is the US can take out whomever it wants. we got the weapons to back it up, we fucked up iraq, afghanistan, alqaida got wiped out, well fuck up iran and europe needs an ass kicking too since you guys didnt support us in Iraq

  • I WAS NOT BORN IN THE USA............but you natives NEED TO LOVE YOUR COUNTRY..........THE U.S. OF MOTHER FCKN A......I BECAME AMERICAN 17 YRS AGO AND THIS IS THE GREATEST COUNTRY PERIOD....I AM A LONG GONG DADDY US OF A......USA USA USA USA USA USA USA USA USA USA USA ! ! ! ! ! !

  • excelente rola neta

  • Great song,Bruce is indeed the man,but in general... Yanks are full of shit,they wade in thinkin theyre the man,then moan and complain when they get their arses kicked

  • take that obama

  • I am not born in USA. However, I love this song. Lot of energy and powerful song.

  • MY BUDDY HAVING AMERICAN BLOOD...

  • WOOHOO WHITE POWER!!!!!!

  • i love the USA soooooo much, when i think about how so many of our brave soldiers died for us, so we can have freedom, it gets to me. thank you all of you soldiers, i truly love you all very much for serving you country. God bless america

  • @onehungryrobot Finally someone who doesnt hate america!

  • The Boss rules!

  • Oh goodness.... NEXT! :-P

  • why spiderman?

  • Listen people its a anti-war song get the fuck over it and its talking about the wars back duiring the cold war stop bashing and if i remember correctly it was the Europeans that was having more wars and started more wars than the Americans we came in and saved some of you and some (talking about those who are bashing on us Americans). So shut the fuck up and you fucking stupid ass Americans we have soldiers out there trying to help out another country and trying to stop those fucking terrorists

  • now gay fashion!

  • You know what I wish? I wish that the american people would support the troops who are fighting for you right instead of bitch about how it is retarded. I don't like hearing about people bashing the military and when i'm over there fighting for the people when all the hatred are sitting at home, safe, and not even apprciating what we actually do for everyone. But hey it's all good. I love this country no matter what. Great song!!

  • @nathanwelch1 Really your out there then i solute you and good luck!

  • WTF? Spiderman?

  • This is a great song and it is not against the USA or against the americans. It is only against making war on other countries!

    Springsteen is the voice of the people and he is asking, why the "simple" hard working people have to fight a war for gouvernments or big companies (oil, weapons etc.), just to be forgotten afterwards!

    Dear europeans, americans, asians, africans and australiens, don't make youtube fights against each other just because of different nationalities!

    Greets from Austria!

  • to true man to true.

    greetings from U.S

  • @pukl lets see well hit you with smart bombs and cruise missles like we did Iraq. Well also use drones if we need to. Fuck Austria we own you

  • @pukl and nothing beats tomahawks

  • @pukl Hello Austria,

    Lets just say people of the Earth, not "europeans, americans, asians", etc.

  • @w0w00t

    Yeah, ur right...

  • @pukl wtf is an australiens? you callin them austr-ailens?  shits not cool

  • @bmxrider222

    Sorry for my bad English!

  • @pukl hahaha all good bro! :D I was drunk when i wrote this, i dont even remember! my ex was german :D

  • @pukl

    perhaps you didnt read the lyrics to the first stanza

    Born down in a dead man's town

    The first kick I took was when I hit the ground

    You end up like a dog that's been beat too much

    Till you spend half your life just covering up

  • @pukl amen

    

  • anti war is NOT anti american

  • @mrcsgordonb history would disagree with you =)

  • Ahahaha americans are so fukken stupid. They don't even realize that this song is anti-america and anti-war.

  • @RockerDuk No, you're the stupid one. It's not anti-American, it's anti-war. In particular, it's against more extravagant, unneccesary wars such as Vietnam and Iraq.

  • @Rogalsfist Are you stupid? It was the american government that started all of these "unnecessary" wars you mention. (I would say every war is unnecessary.) And Bruce keeps mentioning USA, so one would be stupid not to think that it's aimed at the USA, right?

  • Rođen u Zagrebu

  • You know this song was written as an anti-warsong and was originally called Vietnam.

  • I'm find it funny how you guys are saying "Yay, USA". This is a protest song, not a patriotic song.

  • motherfucking usa, yeh yeh! BORN IN THE USSR I WAS BORN IN THE USSR I WAS BORN IN THE USSR BORN IN THE USSR!!!!!

  • Americans are too "black and white" there are gray areas. yea were are great country, but how could u say were the best? Canada gives away health insurance... pretty good to me eh? -Ex Navy Seal

  • BORN IN USA!!!! USA FTW!!!

  • DUDEE

  • perfect:)

  • Doesn't get better!

  • YEH GO USA U RULE .............NOT

  • You should be grateful to the men who've died for this nation . If it werent for those brave men you couldnt sit on your fat 13 year old gamer ass playing games in your moms basement friday night because you cant get a date

    Dont you realize that youd probably be a child laborer getting fucked by a goat for 8 Honduran Lempiras an hour during your breaks in a Nike sweatshop?

    Shut the fuck up and quit hiding behind a computer screen you weak little bitch You "PWN" nothing, you ARE nothing

  • I remember... the blitz were deverstating to this country...

  • Of course they hate us after this, so when Pearl Harbor was left for an entire day with everyone on holiday, they bombed the Hell out of it. America was looking for a very good reason that everyone could agree on to join the war. FDR had been wanting to join the war all along, and when the Japanese bombed us 10 years later, it had everyone in such an uproar that no one would back down from the fight

  • Also, the Japanese invading China violated the Kellogg-Briand Pact of 1928 which renounced war as national policy. So, the United states tells Japan if they don't get out of China, we'll stop trading oil with them. Japan stays in China, so, naturally, we stop trading oil. Eventually, Japan is forced out of China, but not without a lasting grudge against Americans

  • amigo gringo, la victoria final en la segunda guerra mundial es mérito casi exclusivo de la URSS (USSR). La URSS doblegó a la alemania nazi de Hitler.

  • •It all starts many years before Pearl Harbor was bombed. It starts with the Japanese invasion of Manchuria, China. The Japanese invade Manchuria on September 18th, 1931. China was in the middle of a depression (much like our own) so the Japanese quickly get a strong footing in Southern Manchuria. At this time, the United States is good friends with the Russians. It starts pissing off Russia that the Japanese are taking over China. If it pisses off the Russians, it pisses off us.

  • •Part of the reason for going to war against the Germany, Japan and Italy. In March 1940: the Lend-Lease act was passed stating Roosevelt could direct aid to whomever he wanted. This meant that the US was no longer neutral. The US ended up contributing 42 billion dollars to the war effort by 1945. With Hitler taking over Europe, FDR saw fit to aid the British and French troops with arms, etc.

  • Ludvik??? i was wide awake when they studied history bout ww1 ww2. pls keep ya lil stupid comments to ya sen..

  • I was almost born in Philadelphia, PA. But my mom decided to born me in Norway instead ahh.

    I whished that I could been a proud american, but I'am proud of my second country and of course Norway.

    USA-Norway=Best!

  • Saved europe from what mate... before you post dumb ass yank comments.. read your history and you may find out where when and why america decided to join the war.

  • America helped Europe, but I feel Churchill is the true hero of WWII, not FDR. That's just one Americans point of view.

  • Do you remember ?

    Battle from England. The Lufttwafe strikes all the day the cities of your country. Sorry for my English.

  • Yes.

    I just feel Churchill gets credit taken from him by many historians. It was he who warned the world of Nazi Germany, while in my country (America) they mocked him as a scaremonger. It was he who took action before the mighty FDR. I am an American (and proud of it) but i feel insulted when Churchill is ignored by history. He and General Patton we're the true hero's of WWII. Again, one man's opinion.

  • friend Bigstick3456, my English is very bad, i speak spanish :

    ALEMANIA (Germany) PERDIÓ LA SEGUNDA GUERRA MUNDIAL POR 2 MOTIVOS QUE PARA MI FUERON FUNDAMENTALES, PRIMERO POR LA INVENSIÓN DEL RADAR POR PARTE DE INGLATERRA (England) Y SEGUNDO GRACIAS AL TEMIDO INVIERNO RUSO (Russian winter). Y NO HAY MÁS.

  • USSR perdió más de 20.000.000 de personas tras la invasión nazi, ni aún así se rindió, se reagrupó y contraatacó, y te recuerdo que fueron los rusos quienes llegaron primero a Berlín. La historia y el mundo tiene que agradecerle mucho a la USSR, de lo contrario hoy en día en toda américa hablaríamos alemán.

  • @BigStick3456 FDR had no reason to take action until action was taken upon us. And General MacArthur deserves some credit as well

  • Maybe you should think before posting comments to, Perhaps you slept when you learned about WWII.

  • america joined the war because we had pearl harbor bombed. we had no reason to be there. i mean really. they could not fight us and win.... but anyways if we would not have come in when we did..... england would have been conquered. same with russia. most likely at least. america does not enter.... japan attacks russia.... end of story. you cant even say anything lol.

  • Great american Power

  • fuck u bitch

  • israel slaves usa

  • Born in the USA!!!! Where the hell is Romania anyway?!?!

  • Fuck you you shit stain! Hope the Soviets step all over you!

  • Europe dosen't hate USA. It's just you cunt.

  • good thing we saved Europe in ww1 and ww2

  • hahahaha spiderman

  • he is the BEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @curson1977 I think you need to dig a little deeper in history, yes USA was built on Christianity!! Bible and all :) PLEASE do some research.

  • he is the BEST!!

  • jestescie chujami. jestescie komuchami

  • Born in the GERMANY  !!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • why would you declare that on this video? seems odd

  • nice song by the way, a little bit truth

  • lol

  • I (from germany) heard this song in San Francisco on the 4th July while i saw the fireworks :) nice song, love it

  • America has helped countries, but look at how they get treated? Now some presidents are not all that great, I agree. I am a Christian, I love how America was founded on Christian standards. Now it is all changing, so America to me is getting worse. All I can say is God bless America.

  • @rglee44:

    ever listenend to the song carefully? the lyrics? :-) This is no GOP parading song.

    and what is this nonsense about America being founded on Christian standards? Ever really read Thomas Jefferson? You better do it!

  • he doesn't have to read thomas jefferson ... he just have to take a look in an equal history-schoolbook of the junior high ...

  • have you ever listened to the pledge of allegiance? it says "...one nation under God..." if that's not a Christian standard then i dont know what is.

  • Comment removed

  • the phrase "under god" was added in the year 1954 - just another example for religion highjacking secular ground.

    bellamy wrote the original pledge of allegiance in 1892 without any religous reference.

  • "religious" ---- sorry for my poor spelling

  • Jews, Muslims and christians believe in God... christians are dumb. btw dont call me some anti american cuz im in the navy

  • Comment removed

  • Lindo de mas , es un bello clip

  • born in the USSR :P

  • Great country great people, greets from Germany :)

  • and from denmark

  • fucking imperialist america is much bigger than your fucking country

    america is a continent asshole

  • born in the usa!!!!

    america pisses on every otha country!

  • The u.k lost millions of troops fighting the german war machine while every outher country in europe was steam rolled through . How many years did america wait in world war 2 before they actually fired a bullet in europe !? The u.k and russia bleed for years grinding down the germans before america entered the fray . Even to this day the arrogant yankees try to take credit for the whole war .

  • aye... they let the soviets suffer so communism wud never have the strength to survive.... scummy, let the whole of europe suffer because of this fact

  • Hell, Canada did more in Europe than the Yanks did, we went further on D-day, and to this day people are still grateful to us for it.

  • ok, canada did not do more in Europe than usa did and dont even forget the war on the pacific

  • @hi5lo2 they went further on D-Day because the Americans landed on Omaha and Utah beaches, known to be the worst of the fighting. US went on the beaches alone, Canada landed with the British. about 2500 US deaths compared to about 500 Canadian deaths so of course they'll move farther in on one day. as for more in europe i don't think so. US did more than Canada in the war

  • @ironknightcommisar about 2 years before america entered WW2, so its not like you fought them for about 10 years before america showed up. we can't take credit for the whole victory, but we played a major role

  • cucumber

  • hahaha green cucamber he take didnt kill yet huh .
