Bruce Springsteen - I'm on fire - London 2008-05-31 CLOSEUP

[pinkertonishappy]

Who cares if the guy is singing. He's probably a 50 year old man just singing along to his favorite artist. Leave him alone, he's having a good time. In 40 years, that might be you.

[johnny67448]

Give the guy a break, his singing is dire but he's in the audience, not on the stage so who actually cares? The guy is woefully off key but I bet that he was drunk for one and secondly, since when does every paying member of a audience have to be wonderful singers? He payed for his ticket, he can sing along as loud as he wants and all the people complaining about it on here, should really get more fun out of life, rather than being disgusted at a audience members' singing at a live concert.

[BVBMarkus]

horrible guy in the crowd.

he crys like a wolf ^^ lol

[mo03773]

erm... wow.

[NYtoTX]

This is sad...I am here several times a day just to laugh myself silly

[NYtoTX]

I keep coming back to this video JUST to crack up at the bad singer

[NYtoTX]

The offkey guy is making me laugh SO HARD. It's almost like he is TRYING to suck. Bruce looks exhausted.

[NYtoTX]

The Boss looks old...but he is in great shape. LOL at the off key guy.

[holitipu]

i m sorry to disagree with the posts -i was at this concert and in the pit near the front ( but NOT near the tone deaf guy thank god) and no way was bruce pissed off, in fact we were all thrilled when he started this one up. he'd rather a crowd be engaged - even with off colour singing - than singing to fat cats sitting on their corporate backsides

[larsjune1]

i think, the boss heard the singing man in the front row, because he seemed pretty pissed off. well. who woulnd't have?

[NYtoTX]

@larsjune1 Nah he just looked exhausted. I doubt he can even hear that guy

[larsjune1]

@NYtoTX

hehe :-)

i am not sure, at 1:20 you can see and hear him talk to the people in the front row.

[NYtoTX]

@larsjune1

LOL...but he is laughing, right?

I am still coming to this video every day to have a laugh! I am in tears as I type! (of laughter). Maybe the offkey singer is the one who is recording, thus nobody should be pissed at him. He is making MY day!

[billbenblue]

I couldn't even finish this goddamn video because of THE FUCKING IDIOTS GODDAMN OPENING THEIR SHIT-SMELLING MOUTHS while he was trying to sing! Completely fucking killed it! Dicks! If the person who posted this is one of those miserable fucks, I hope you die a slow, long, drawn-out, agonizing death! Prick. Hope someone in your family dies real soon, too. Asshole.

[pinkertonishappy]

@billbenblue YOU SPAZ

[vinchenzo19]

@billbenblue don't be such a wanker. You don't like? FUCK OFF!

[toutatis193]

somebody shoot that guy in the crowd please

[avlisk]

It may be just Bruce and his band. They are older now and maybe just can't hit the notes anymore. That's my guess.

[12inchinthegrave]

@avlisk you could be right,but i recken with that crowd he,s pissed, but too much the

professional to just walk off.

[12inchinthegrave]

son of stan laurel ?

thats another fine mess ive got myself into.

ps fan since 70s

[mosesman01]

he has none of the magic he used to

[rfxkamus]

Bruce Springsteen Best song!!!

[chrisair2112]

shoot the guy in the crowd that is destroying this video please..

[bullybullseye123]

somebody in that crowd is killing this song!!

[LudacrisLiver]

Omg! I love this! Your right! This is awesome:)))

[oren66]

no one can mach him. he is a legend !

[DoNotBeHighandMighty]

But I guess it doesn't really matter if the crowd sings, just listen to Bruce sing the song, he doesn't sound as good as he used to singing this song, I don't know if he just wasn't putting effort into it or if it is because he is getting old(or maybe both.)

[DoNotBeHighandMighty]

WHAT THE FRICK IS THE POINT IN GOING TO A CONCERT WHEN YOU CAN'T HEAR THE ARTIST? THAT IS BS.

[CHKNSFKN]

theres a guy in that crowd that needs a bullet, i think we all know who im talkin about

[rodsteelaces]

this is what i call, in the zone everybodys happy!not a care in wourld!

[robi2000]

haha the Crowd sounds great ! Pure heart

[Sean0Sullivan]

The guys singing along are so bad they're brilliant. You couldnt' do it if you tried. Couldn't imagine a worse fate than standing next to them though.

Long live Bruce.

[demi078]

ita fine to sing at bruce concerts but only if you can carry a tune luckily he is soooo awesome he can pull it off long live the boss!!!

[maxsoldier70]

but he drunk?

[UncleErnie71]

People who sing loudly/clap at concerts should be slapped. Hard.

[nickleby68]

@UncleErnie71 And people posting comments like that should also be slapped and very hard at that. You are a prize numpty.

[abracadabra32]

how funny ! How can Bruce sing so seriously, and be so concentrated, with such people in the crowd !!!

[nickleby68]

@abracadabra32 Because he is "The Boss".

[agnethe23]

ha ha that's so funny they sing so awful...

[leebug33]

who ever shot this.....................wot the hell..u have totally ruined it! broooooooooooooce me babeXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX­X

[veryandy2]

you go too a BOSS GIG an dont sing ?? wats wrong with you??? funny not the best audio but upfront with the BOSS who wouldnt want too be there ?

[TheMissCassia]

Bruce, what is with the hair thing here? Great song but you've lost that loving feeling with it.

[warflynn]

@TheMissCassia NEVER!! Shut your pie hole

[texaspete66]

love the way he just comes & puts himself in with his fans, so up close & personal. I appreciate sometimes its hard not to, but its stil a shame about the loudmouths singing along.

[JulietheQueen]

Ahh I'm so jealous now of a one person who's been to this gig and was lucky to get backstage to take pictures with Bruce! I wish i was at this concert. Gorgeous performance!! (apart from 'backing vocals' xDD)

[nweston99]

LMAO at the camera man singing!

[twotoneandy73]

you go to a concert to listen to the artist..you always end up with some prick singing all the way through the songs standing nxt to you

[clemep]

@twotoneandy73 : loud and out of tune to bout...lol

[twotoneandy73]

amen....lol...

[44pullups]

i should find this annoying (i mean, come on, the guy with the camera is singing) but instead it was charming and intimate and genuine, and since i am "on fire" with a new woman it's resonates like thunder

[erikBO23]

He's got the eyes of Stan Laurel ;-)

[Neira7]

What does he say at 1.17? Is it "I like your belt"? lol

I would sing too :)

[myownbutterfly2076]

This Vid is cool.. I would have been that close to Bruce.. And I would SING too..

[msharkrs]

omfg the camera man ruined it dude he fuckin sucks at singing and hes trying to sing along with bruce. damn asshole

[blackhawkfima]

concert singalongs can get real annoying!

[CarnivoreConfidence]

quality

[Lucii1293]

LoL, the extra X-factor voice was absolutely awesome xD

[BlithingtonMaxwell]

wow... cameraman

just wow...

[msav111]

the camera man's not even NEAR pitch, just let bruce sing his song

[shitskater]

Happy birthday bruce so happy for being there

[Rustyman3000]

I'm so fucking jealous of missing this gig

[Live2PlayChannel]

Great Song

Please check our Version out

[AccaEntwistleDacca]

they're not booing theyre saying BRUUUUUUUUUUUUCE!

[locksmithite]

is it me or do you hear people booing him?

[hogtiedster]

WHAT is with the guy in the crowd... a cat wailing in the night comes to mind.

[jacquesjapan]

Hey now there, don't give cats a bad name. Cats have been known to carry a tune from time to time. Lol at least the guy was having fun though. =)

[QuilledMind]

Wow that crowd is HORRIBLE. Don't ever sing along with the artist...please...for the love of all things good.

[poada2008]

I totally agree man, i would have punched at least nine.

[MythicalBeastFilms]

@QuilledMind It's actually quite common at Springsteen shows, especially during this one, The River and Hungry Heart among others. Springsteen actually lets the crowd sing a verse occasionally. It's cool.

[warflynn]

@QuilledMind No shit!

[NYtoTX]

@QuilledMind

ROTFL

[smartalek1]

@QuilledMind

Amen.

Your comment should appear on every single music page on YouTube, every page of every lyrics site, every page of every fansite, til ppl ƒµ¢#ing GET IT!

[BrokenBard]

@smartalek1 Haha. Thanks. Apparently, a post that I made over a year ago is still being commented on very very often.

Much thanks, people!

[locksmithite]

Bruce has been touring since 1972. I'm sure he's used to the crowd singing along and isn't affected by it at all.

[Mubble]

lol, that guy in the crowd is just fucking crap at singing.

[alletunfreaK]

oh yeees :D

[roddy33333]

bruce is class but sum1 shut that oyher prick up

[jonnyfivealive]

Still hitting the highs. Sounds great.

[BeNgEE08]

also agree with the retarded motherfucker singing should kill himself

[BeNgEE08]

liked it when bruce played guitar to this song better, the music doesnt sound live. Yeh this gives new meaning to close up. Bruce looks fantastic for 59 or whatever (no homo)

[Addiction747]

The 'oohs' at the end of the song bring tears to my eyes. He didn't sing that in the older live versions i checked out here.

[cfengler]

Tone.......Deaf.........

[AngryMegaphoneMan]

What a moving song. The backing vocals just add to the beauty.

[pagnieats]

dude stfu next time your voice is terrible and you carn't hear bruce! god what a waist of a good record. But then again his voice isn't that great anymore cause of all the drugs hes probably taken. It happens.

[Nille00]

The boss, drugs? Are you fucking kidding me?

[Allyssandra]

you are wrong!

[sindeeh]

one word.. idiot!

[Wrxrtd]

Man how close were you! Thats wicked! I hope to be that close in June this year when he comes to play at Hyde Park. And you have to sing along with The Boss! Anyone who goes to a Springsteen concert and doesnt sing along doesnt belong there!

[TedB80]

that is cool.

[jeanbanahn]

haha fucking male cow shut up

[blindnarcissus]

OMG Raymi, keep it down next time!

[Epsilon0703]

Love this song!

[XxSternchenxX8]

oh my god this dude there tryin to sing is crackin me up!!Shut up next time, you totally ruined a masterpiece..

But anyways,Bruce is as awesome as he was 20 years ago and he still looks great! I love you Mr. Springsteen :)

[cadenza1979]

The guy off-key is actually crackin' me up. I like how Bruce still really plays off the audience, like when he turns the chair around.

[skortsed]

Yeah I agree with you, the man who can't sing totally destroy this record.. Otherwise a masterpiece. I was there and it was bloody amazing.. Another thing, it must be hard to sing when Bruce here those false voices around him and when he is so close to them..

[MurphysD187]

Sad that the retarded man who cant sing destroy this beautiful moment.

[jeanbanahn]

loool

[locksmithite]

i was ready for bruce to stand up and say "shut the hell up and let me sing".

[FilleUlvesson]

Haha I agree with the people and the other side! The guy ruins the VIDEO a bit! Though ofcourse he should be singing!! Everyone should sing at a concert! :D Plus Bruce don't hear his shit tones so it doesn't mess up his vocals either! :) Everyone can't be perfect at singing! ;)

[ifanyonecansamcan]

for all you fuck wits slagging the bloke off for singing and enjoying him self get a life your the sort of people who go to a concert and just stand there making the atmosphere shite everyone at a bruce conert should be singing and dancing go to a cliff richards gig you boring twats..ps.. we love you bruuuuuuuuuce....

[XxSternchenxX8]

omg get some peace! we´re jus sayin that this dude

shouldn´t be singin like that and tryin to make a record for yt at the same time, cuz u can hear more of his voice than u can hear bruce sing, that´s what´s annoying! don´t be such a hater. u´ve never seen me on a concert lol :D:D

[Mikester82]

how close is that! wow

[sugarbabe11662]

great close up Bruce85filming

[peteback]

whose the fucktard singing the worst possible notes right in the guy's face while he's trying to sing for thousands of people.

[Fretkillr]

Bruce is just about sitting in the audience! Gotta love The Boss.

[MMLaY92]

HIS VOICE IS STILL GREAAAAAT

[hellovictoria123]

i was there :) xxx

[evh5150316]

this is a classic video.

Look into Bruce's eyes...you can see a guy who LOVES what he is doing. Nothing pretentious in his performance at all!

[christoffff]

He looks a bit like Keith Richards

[Hakzet]

you can really see how pissed Bruce gets of the camera man singing sooo bad! haha

great song though

[dragosc1]

Camera dude u bloody messed the whole song. Next time hold your breath when Bruce is singing.

[kimvaterra]

Wow! The boss is getting old man. 1986 to now!

[smekpung2k]

Awesome!!:D it would be more awesome if one of the fans who where singing shut the fuck up! :P

[melgeo1999]

Now THAT is tone deaf...dayum!!!!

P.S.

Camera dude:

Thanks for the vid but puhlleeeeze...don't sing along as though it is Karaoke night at some suck-ass bar please!!!!!!!

YOU SUCK...

(note to self:

don't try and sing anymore!!!! EVER!!!!)

[billybillyboab]

I meant the guy who you can hear singing can't carry a tune and that it shouldn't matter, I wasn't referring to Bruce. Bruce has refined his singer over the years very well.

[therock9755]

Awesome!!:D it would be more awesome if one of the fans who where singing shut the fuck up! :P

[ttft33]

bruce is king, say nothing else

[ostfrallan]

omg..this is so bad!!! He should have quit ages ago..who wants to see an old man that cant carry a tune properly.....better search some1 covering this song instead..cant be any worse imo

[EndeavorLeadGtr]

You can hardly even hear Bruce in this video. It's the audience members that are tone deaf. Bruce sounds like he's "carrying a tune" just as well as ever to me. I don't know what you're hearing...

[alyse1969]

you are a moron; the man carries a tune just fine. and this is one of the most perfect song's he's ever written. next time, get a freaking clue before blowing smoke out your ass......

[billybillyboab]

Who actually cares that the guy who is singing his heart out cant carry a tune, it's a magnifcent song and he seems to be enjoying himself so why does it matter?

[alyse1969]

he carries the tune just fine; as endeavor already pointed out, it's the audience members who can't sing, not bruce. good god....

[smekpung2k]

i think he meant the guy!

[stojax]

thank you so much for posting this, I must have been standing right next to you but my footage is a bit shaky (no wonder, having Bruce sing that;)...What an awesome night it was!

[expired59]

ok, the guy you hear is pretty bad, but the song is great and Bruce is awesome. Went to the Dallas a couple months back. It was amazing. Bruce is a legend and seems a heck of great guy.

[bjasom1]

I have a ticket for Oslo July 8th ^^. I'm gonna get there early to get close to the stage. I've been a fan for a couple of years and it will be my very first Springsteen concert (2nd altogether, last one was U2. Also in Oslo).

[thomstrom]

2 weeks! and the it is: "Copenhagen, is there anybody alive out there",,,

[lucknopfler]

Class! Hope he plays this wednesday in Amsterdam!!

[toonboer]

He did!!

[06015730]

is he out of it? He's got to be, after all the Dublin and Manchester gigs.

[sjakdotpunt]

hes having a 2 week break...dunno...maybe something to do with a graduate / exams from his kids?

(dunno the dates for the us, but here it is that time school finished and so)

man o man... hardly have the curiouge to say it, but what a damn horney performance.

Butterflies! wowhow.... and yes I know... he could have been my... uhrm... uncle, I guess, due to his age.. but still :P

Cant wait till wednesday!

woehoehoe!

[Nellyme]

i want you came to Portugal... pleeeaaasssee!

[sjakdotpunt]

Wow! What an appearance, his nrg, his attitude, his performance!

Butterflies in my belly, reminds me at the times I stood in the frontrows myself, back in those days!

Wow!

[KleWdSide]

About as laid-back as Bruce can get w/ the ESB :)

[signetdude]

we were there on Saturday night and this man is a musical legend. The show was awesome and easily worth all the travelling. as for singing along you just ahve to go for it, most of the people around us were doing exactly the same.

[dvddubbingguy]

from the guy who can't sing and did part of the filming and now so many people want to tear and feather comes the same video with EXCELLENT DUBBED audio, you can see it at my page or at the top of this page in the "video answer" section

[Pilker38]

yeah! i was there!!

[marge40]

Bruce likes nothing better than people enjoying themselves, it that means someone singing along thinking they sound as good as him so be it :-) I was singing in Dublin, goodness knows it probably sounded like someone strangling a cat.

[bjvero12]

frikin cool !

[NDtrojan]

song is ruined by the idiot standing next to the guy filming; compounded by the god-awful accent.

[ryematt2108]

wow really cool love to get that close to bruce will be seeing him in august in milwaukee yea!!! ps have to agree the person singing in backround good god let bruce sing!!!!

[borrowaddy]

Great video - pity someone didn't shoot the fkn crow singing along!!!!!!

[Eeza07]

Yeah because going to a concert and not singing is fun.

[Googally]

Love this !!!!

[clarunia]

FANTASTIC :-)))

[spartyman7]

That was pretty amazing...

Can't say I've ever been up front for a show with Bruce, but that was a nice taste of what it must be like! Thanks much for that...

[GMSpringsteen]

oh my god!!!

i'm so so so lookin forward to seeing him in Paris in June !!!

[neildawson]

Great! If you managed to get Downbound Train (played just before this) I'd REALLY love to see it.
