  • Hello Youtube! I'm sure you get this a lot, but I'm a 16 year old male singer-songwriter with a mission. I want to be a professional singer and only you can help me achieve that goal. I have written two songs that you may be interested in "Sup" and "Puzzlebox". Please could you take the time to listen, comment and rate. It doesn't matter whether you love it or hate it, I just need some advice. If you're into acepellas and ballads then this is for you! Thank you!

    THUMBS UP so all can see!!!

  • All i think of when i hear this song is Top Gear Vietnam special :L

  • when i go through basic i want there to be a badass montoge video of paris island and this will be the theme song c:

  • The boss ;)

  • i'm not american and didn't come here for some bull shit debate, but i like this song!!

  • FUUUUUUUUCK YOU USA (not it's people, it's not their fault that they are CRIPPLED)

    JUDGEMENT DAY IS COMING !!!! PREPARE

  • @notargetbg why what's wrong with U.S.A.?

  • I know that this is supposed to be some Liberal Message ...

    But it what says to me is how terrible Soldier's returning home from Vietnam were treated, funny enough by Liberals.

    So I don't understand how this is liberal, unless there's some subtext I missed here.

    The only fact is that is that there's an entire generation of Americans who should feel ashamed of themselves for their acts in the late 60's and early 70's.

    Either way I still love the song, and tells a real story of the time.

  • You can bet this WON'T be Barrack Obama's inauguration song in 2012.

  • holy shit all these liberal faggots need to get off this video

  • what's wrong with u? he talks about miserable life in america, born in the U.S.A. a.k.a. Fuck! i've been born in the U.S.A.

  • @MrBlanta He isn't talking negatively about America. He's talking bad about the war. In the middle you can tell he's taking pride in American blue collar life living in a small town and working in the mills.

  • I know the guy that recorded this song-- Billy Straus. He's an awesome dude

  • WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY WE IN THE FUCKING 2011 WE HAVE BORN IN THIS WAY AND IN THE 1980 WE HAVE BORN IN THE USA GODDAM YOU GOD

  • And, just as I expected. The song has "USA" in the title, so there's a political debate in the comments.

  • ronald reagan is the bset presdnt you all noobys goo ronaldl!

  • @HPaisana judging based on your spelling i can only come to the conclusion that at least you are sincere

  • SHOENICE22

  • @hschan4 I agree that might doesn't make right, my friend. Iraq and Afghanistan are not my wars, not much benefit to the US or its allies in being there, just a terrible waste of human lives, money, and a squandering of international good will. America's imperial impulse is almost over, nearly bankrupt because of it. Soon, the rest of the world can salute their new hegemon, the Chinese Empire, and I will relish it when you sigh for the good ole days of American leadership. Good luck!

  • @hschan4 I agree, might does not make right. However, some fights ARE worth fighting, even if you yourself don't understand the real reasons WHY they are being fought.

  • I like american people, but HATE your government! :)

  • @hehefromhere Don't worry we do too.

  • @hehefromhere dont worry we hate our goverment to

  • @hehefromhere then you hate america because the ppl make up the government!!! what dont you like about my government ??

  • @cutandshoottx the world economy is in the shitter and we are killing innocent civilians in the middle east if you actually listen to the lyrics this is an anti war song not a pro america song GO FUCK YOURSELF

  • @ipwnm00bs I don't think Bruce is pro-war, but I don't agree that this song is anti war. It's just a song about the reality of what happened.

  • @cutandshoottx america has killed millions of people fatfuck , you got a lot of nerve to ask a question like that ,your tv is pure propaganda , you're switching stations as you're country dies .

  • @cutandshoottx

    it ain't your government. You can only believe the lies that have been hammered into you since you was a kid. If it is YOUR govenrment then go down to the capitol and tell them mf ers you're fired. oh you can't do that, cuz it AIN"T YOUR government

  • @cutandshoottx American people vote for no-war candidate every year, but then their candidate chance their mind when they enter office. American people are great and wonderful, but their banks, media & government are shitheads.

  • @hehefromhere That's not fair. Some of the people suck too. Get it right

  • @hehefromhere Most intelligent Americans agree with you lol

  • @TheEndeavoringFamily Ron Paul seems cool tho, USA might have the first non pro-war president since JFK :D

  • @hehefromhere good. I hate our gov't as well hate our gov't hate our prez i compleatly understand

  • @hehefromhere Occupy away we need more people.

    

  • @hehefromhere As an American, I completely understand. We tend to despise it too, but not often enough for the reasons we should. Anyway, having been to Europe a few times, I hear this all the time. The best was a woman in Italy: "You're American? I love Americans! But I don't like you're government...but then I don't like MY government either." Frankly, I'm always glad to meet people abroad, like you it seems, who don't make assumptions about me b/c I'm American.

  • @hehefromhere I'm american and i hate my government lmao

  • @DayDreamAscent Well I really liked the song that's why I'm here in the first place. As for me letting my feelings flow about how I feel about ppl givin their lives for me? Well..Um yea Im going to appreciate them, I just happen to live in America, What country I come from is really irrelevant, If I lived in another country it would be the same to me. Also for your other question plz know that I am only one person I cant speak for a whole country lol, But I don't c the embarrassment anywhere :/

  • 196 people support Obama........

  • @ShastymiCnasty ಠ_ಠ 

  • @0BornofDesire0 (¤_¤) how have you done that face??

  • I used to think the first lyric was "Got caught in the Red man's trap" Red man like republican

  • @Jbirdrules3818 haha what a joke

  • Bruce is king

  • Whats with all the American haters if you dont like america dont ever come here. And America is the greatest country in the world because if you make it here you can make it anywhere!!!!!!!!!!!

  • sent me off to a foreign land to go kill the taliban

  • Bruce Springsteen and I have so much in common. He may not know, but I was also born in the U.S.A. It's so crazy how you meet people and learn such odd things that you have in common.

  • BORN IN A FUCKING WORLD!!!!!

    BORN IN A FUCKING WORLD!!!!!

  • There is nothing glorious or patriotic about killing another human being. Ask a veteran.

  • @unleashed1966 american soldiers are thought to just kill theyr "enemy" isnt human to them thats whats told to them alls soldiers are brainwashed by the goverment its sickening

  • @corakanproductions not true other countries kill to look at piece of shit germany how many pussy ass SHITLER took down.

  • @jb55101 im not saying its only america

  • @corakanproductions It is brainwashing; I couldn't agree more!

  • Just in case some of you are kids who don't know any better or are just complete morons, the U.S. didn't "lose" Vietnam. The U.S. pulled out to let the South Vietnamese do the fighting. Big difference between putting out the white flag and letting those boys over there do their own fighting. U.S. lost nearly 59,000, Vietnam lost an estimated 1,000,000. Not to mention the innocent citizens trapped in the middle. It was an incredible waste of human life for both sides and very sad indeed.

  • @unleashed1966 Yeah yeah, and Adolf Hitler just decided to listen to the radio instead.

    You got beat, you got your arse's kicked. You lost. You came second. You didn't win. Let me know when you get the point.

  • @DayDreamAscent Yah yeah and you were there? fuck you liitle jerry _|_ you speak what you dont know, you think what you learn on school or read in books is all real. You need to talk with real people that were in the war. Usa fucked hitler and so do the brithish the french the russians all the allies i dont get the point of being on the side of the fucking gay hitler.

  • @DayDreamAscent I get the point that you don't much about history.

  • great song!

  • how dumb must have been Ronald Reagan trying to use this song for his presidential campaign?!

  • @imgonnastayeighteen Not as dumb as the millions of Americans who knew the song, could sing the chours but never actually paid any attention to the lyrics or further yet, what the lyrics represented.

  • @SwerdyJazz we always knew what the song meant you dumb Cow

  • U may be born this way, but i'm born in the USA! (Just a way to say, Fck u gaga, hail to Bruce)

  • @DeadpoolDamian I don't think Bruce means it as a proud thing. He's actually very critical of the USA. So yes, hail to Bruce for telling it like it is.

  • I love it when armchair warriors fight over who's country is best.

  • Haha, this song is anti-war, if you haven't noticed, because it says USA, doesn't make it a patriotic song

  • @MrHATERS33 you my friend is whats wrong with the world and if you are refering to WWII i beleave the russuens are the real savures thear check your facts

  • ̶S̶t̶o̶p̶ ̶S̶O̶P̶A̶ ̶a̶n̶d̶ ̶P̶I̶P̶A̶ ̶f̶r̶o̶m̶ ̶i̶n̶t̶r̶u̶d̶i̶n̶g̶ ̶o̶u̶r̶ ̶r̶i̶g̶h̶t̶s̶ ̶a̶n̶d̶ ̶p̶o̶s̶s̶i̶b̶l̶y̶ ̶s̶h̶u̶t̶t̶i̶n̶g̶ ̶d̶o̶w̶n̶ ̶Y̶o̶u̶T̶u̶b̶e̶!̶

  • @MrHATERS33, uhm no, you did not become a super power until around the first or second world war but yeah, w/e

  • USA! We have been the worlds super power since we have formed. Every enemy has and will fall to the US! The rest of the world looks at us trying to be us. The rest of the world is shit. Asia is a communist shithole. Europe is a bunch of children and when they get in a fight the US steps in and makes them grow the fuck up! USA!USA!USA!

  • @MrHATERS33 Get off your period. I live in the US but that doesn't mean I go on random videos hating other countries. Douchebag.

  • @MrHATERS33 lol, dumbass

  • @MrHATERS33 Hi there, Mr Missing The Point Completely!

  • @MrHATERS33 !!!TROLL ALERT!!! ACTIVATED

  • MrHATERS33 Did you know that on Human Development Index all the countries before US are from Europe apart from Canada and Australia? Did you know that USA lost the Vietnam war even though they had a lot more men and weaponery than the Vietnamese they fought against? Did you know that USA didn't fight in WW 2 untill Japanese attacked Pearl Harbour? Did you know that one WHO's rank of world's health systems US is on the place 37? The list goes on and on so shut the fuck up stupid Yank

  • @MrHATERS33 WW2? You mean the war Americans hid from for nearly two years saying "it's not our war" (some "allies" you turned out to be, even the French joined in 48 hours). When you finally did show up - because you had no other option left - your military was so awful you killed nearly as many allies through friendly-fire as the enemy did. And then you have the balls to spend 70 years claiming you "saved ass". Hilarious. Sit the fuck down.

  • Comment removed

  • @DayDreamAscent yeah and the french lost to didn't they ?  hitler took down many countries . so don't act like europe is all that great either.

  • @DayDreamAscent big help the french were eh? The US didn't send troops earlier because people still had bad memories of WW1 and didn't want another. We didn't do nothing, though, we shipped weapons and supplies to Britain and her allies.  Once Japan attacked, you're right, we had no other option, because we didn't want to all end up speaking Japanese. We beat Japan with a little bit of help from Australia, but no one else. And Patton (an American General) was instrumental in beating Germany.

  • @masterofdisaster433 Boy does the US let its citizens down – cf victims of the Danish led white supremacy/ nazi terror group where NO appropriate ASSISTANCE have been offered to victims. My entire back and neck have been mangled – four months and NOT ONE reply from authorities and NOT ONE member of the terror group has been arrested. To the best of my knowledge none of hundreds of people collecting evidence has received a reply when submitting evidence.

  • @MrHATERS33 Your mother should have exercised her american freedom to abort your ass...This is why its embarrassing to be called American because slack jawed faggots such as yourself. =)

  • visit my chinel

  • regan tried to use this on his campain.... idiot...

  • Fucking humans! Evil species, should and will be illuminated soon!

  • As a vet, I recall the doomsday argument..if we do not save Vietnam from the communists, all the SE Asian nations will fall to communism, i.e. the Domino Effect. Born in the US...sorry..son..you just don´t understand..I´m not a kid anymore..and well being a vet has an advantage..as my boss phased out my job..I told him he had no respect for vets...but he still has his job...born in the USA.

  • @70sGuy100 I hear you bro... my dad is also a vietnam vet and he always considered this song for the vets... the ones that protest how the goverment and society shafted them... he knows the lyrics and what they mean.

  • faajdskasd lkasjdlfkjsad aklsdjflksadj aslkjfalskdj BORN IN THE USA!!

  • @BlackPeopleMakeMeSad we wouldnt want you here anyway.

  • fuck the us of a

  • soooo many haters commenting on this video...it's actually pretty funny! chill out! Born in the USA!! >:)

  • i say U.S.A. Britain and Japan rule!!!!!!! (no offense to anyone who doesn't agree. these are just my favorite)

  • @monopolychampion101 Japan? that's random...?

  • lol fuck you fat americans and when you say you havent lost a war yet england has done most of the work and u but in near the end and take all the credit soo fuck you

  • @BoomySpace lol England had there chance to take america down in the revolutionary war so if england was so awesome don't you think they would have taken out america? just a thought i don't know. doesn't matter now we are all teams. if only china or russia would join our side, we would be unstoppable!!! and we could celabrate at McDonalds jk lol.

  • @BoomySpace LOL what? England had two chances to crush America and didn't either time. Granted, they did win the majority of the conflicts in the War of 1812. Once we get to more modern times, WW1 was won once America joined in, America didn't join in when WW1 was won. America also cleaned house in WW2, fighting a war on 2 fronts and STILL winning. Korea and Vietnam were all primarily American operations, as was desert storm.

  • @masterofdisaster433 I'm afraid you are a poorly educated nationalist moron. I just thought I'd let you know.

  • @masterofdisaster433 "cleaned house" lol. Since when was "hiding like cowards until the real men did the hard work then coming in at the end to steal the glory" called "cleaning house"?

    I swear, if you Americans had fought WW2 as well as you talk it, we'd be proud of you too. But ask a Brit, a Pole or a Russian if you were heroes in WW2. You were the biggest cowards of all.

  • @DayDreamAscent You call sitting around getting bombed hard work? Because that's all the British managed to do on their own. Also, what did the Brits, Poles, or Russians do in Japan? WW2 didn't just happen in Europe you know.

  • fuck the us of a

  • @tyandar334 fuck you too :)

  • @rucajuda haha :) USA all the way!

  • 99 out of every 100 Americans don't even get what this song is really about. That depresses me.

  • @CottonCandyCrew heheh yeah i heard em play it in Memphis on the 4th of july, all singing along and bopping their heads to the tune. Hilarious stuff.

  • @CottonCandyCrew what is it about?

  • @CottonCandyCrew Man, i'm from brazil but you listen to me...

    qual o problema? É uma música de refrão marcante e que merece ser cantada com fervor.

  • @CottonCandyCrew People really need to listen to lyrics. Most people don't get how dark this song is.

  • @dudenyeh man this song is just commercial nationalism bruce springsteen is just a sell out with no fucking freedom of expression if you think this is dark you should listen to the underground punk scene of the 80's or listen to some of the 1950's beat poets work it will open your mind songs like born in the u.s.a or concrete/corprate pieces of shit that cloud your indepedence into thinking that your part of some thing called america or the world's bigest federal scam

  • @mistapasty420 That's nice, dear.

  • @CottonCandyCrew well the size of ur dick depresses me, so I say we're even...born in the USA

  • @CottonCandyCrew Yes the 99% are truly retarded...

  • @CottonCandyCrew I know, they are under the impression its some sort of cold war propaganda pro usa song when its actually being very critical of the the illusion vs reality of the 'American Dream'... the irony is that the Americans that dont get it are being sort of made fun of in the song.

  • go USA sure i hate the government and the president but i was still born in the USA and we haven't lost a war yet!!!!! and we have the french army to help........wait what french army? lol well im getting ready for war, come on guys lets go to McDonalds to bulk up, i would say KFC but im not black JK LOL

  • @monopolychampion101 Also, what? You lost in Vietnam. And Iraq. And you're not winning in Afghanistan either.

    Actually, this song is about how much Springsteen actually thinks it sucks the way your government dealt with Vietnam veterans. It's not patriotic. At all.

    Just thought you should know.

  • @shittyfagg Stop fucking arguing in music videos just fuckin listen to the song omg

  • @rucajuda nah i got it on my iPod, i just use this channel to bitch about stuff I don't like.

  • @shittyfagg show more respect for the brave us soldiers :)

  • @rucajuda naa.

  • @shittyfagg hahaha we joined those wars to help out not to win or loose anything. just thought you should know. if you want me ill be at McDonalds lol. and if you think Springsteen thinks america sucks then you must not be a very big fan. or you haven't heard much songs.

  • @monopolychampion101 nah you started, not joined, those wars mostly for oil profits.

    Also, I never said Springsteen thinks the US sucks, on the contrary, he's about as American as they get.

    It's just that you need to understand that this song is not a patriotic song. It's not about how great the US is and how fantastic he feels because he was 'born in the USA'. It's about his disillusionment with the Vietnam war and its aftermath.

  • Born in the United Fat Americans (UFA)

  • @MrdPintos Worst joke ever. You couldn't even make it fit the acronym, terrible.

  • thumbs up if u think the people that disliked this is not in america.
