favorite version of this song. my inspiration to go to college, to move out of my small town, and to keep believing that some day i'm going to get where i want to be and walk in the sun.
I swear this was blocked before, but thank god it is back. This is my absolute favourite song, and my favourite version and I am so in love with it right now! LOve you Bruce!xxxxxx
@95DallasCowgirl : Exactly this has been published on cd also, a 1988 EP, under the name "Chimes of Freedom", a 4 track special cd. The quality is of course much better than here. It is my all time fav of all versions and tracks. If you are lucky maybe it is on ebay or so. Cheers, R.

Help us get Born To Run to the Number 1 spot on the Uk Charts on the 22nd August by buying the song from the Greatest Hits album on Itunes between 16th and 21st August and help celebrate Born To Run's 35th anniversary with the first UK number 1 for the Boss!
Search on Facebook for the group. Look for Make Born To Run Uk Number 1.
This maybe sound a little bit pretentious but this song inspired me alot to just take the chance and "live on the wire". One of the greatest songs of all time. I recomend you all to just take the chance and break through boring life someday and just drive to an unknown destination !
Last year i took my graduation, but after that i got employed and kind of overwhelmed by the adult life . The financial crisis made it kind of impossible to find a new job for an inexperienced 19 yeard old in Sweden. After 8 months of unemployment i just got sick and tired and wanted to "break out". So i bought a cheap car, drove to Norway and found a job in a warehouse. Now i have money to travel the world and see the things i have allways wanted to see.
If Love is such a Power how is it our lives are continually compromised by make-shift constipated TV? Whoa Oh Oh O Ohea! Together we can get through the madness...
best acoustic song he ever did. bruce is the essential rock artist and bon to run is the essential rock song. Life changing in every way for the better.
I am not going to say that Springsteen is a "musician;s musician", but I will say he is versatile, as it shows in this vid, where he takes a rock-and-roll song and turns it into a folksong and still gives it meaning. I personally believe Bruce loves all forms of music... Rock and roll was just his main outlet.
It would be oh so nice if I were able to locate a download for this one, since it's spoiled me now and the original version no longer sounds half as good... if any of you bros and/or hoes can help, I'd be eternally grateful.
Just google "free youtube download" an install the software. Usually this is in mp4 format then, so you will need an additional mp4 --> mp3 converter.
Hey, thanks for that, buuut... I kind of did know that, I just find that the audio quality tends to be a lot worse in tracks I got from Youtube in comparison to the rest of my music library, so I was hoping for an alternative to that. But yeah, I s'pose that'll have to do, thank you anyway for replying!
For those that don't know this version of BTR is on the Chimes of Freedom album along with "Be True", "Chimes of Freedom" and "Tougher than the Rest'.
Even the crowd just " clapping along to this utter nonsense" this song aint meant to be AUCRAPtoustic, jeesus only 1 good line it in it, " baby we we were born to wear ear plugs" unless we get quality tuneage
There's lots of fantastic music out there, and amazing artists and songwriters aswell... I've been searching the world for the BEST for a long time, but I always happen to come back to this man.
Bruce, you're the ultimate artist. I wish I could have told you how much your work means to me...
Bruce, you changed my life. I'll always carry you and your music in with me in my heart.
I agree,youtube offers so much great stuff that would've cost thousands of dollars and countless hours to track down,Since I discovered yt I spend several hours a week enjoying music, 90percent of the time it's Bruce.
to victheslick0.when you truly love it is never lost,the strenghth of the the bond is only truly felt after deathand they become even more a part of us than they were in life.
Tabs exist online. There's chords for this particular performance- it's in an easier key. I can't remember where I got them from. If I find 'em again, I'll let you know.
Yeah, reference liamh152 above, I do believe they call him The Boss... but sure, why don't we call him the King too... Elvis deserved it in his time but I believe Bruce deserves it nowadays.
This acoustic version is great. It's almost as good as his alternative/acoustic version of Thunder Road (the one with, "if you're born with nothing in your hands, baby that's your only chance.").
Best Version of Born To Run, also Best Version of any song he has. Never been the biggest fan of born to run. But this version oh my god, is on a whole nother level. Every couple months gotta come back and listen to this..Bruce is the man
