Wow fucking kill set list ... Thanks for posting such a masterpiece!!! He doesn't play this to much anymore after Manfred ruined this song with his version. Kinda sad because this is one of if not his best song ever!!!
Instead of singing, it sounds like Bruce is just saying the lyrics casually. It's not a terrible version but Manfred Mann really put some feeling into the song and had a much better style.
@coltonwithano fuck u don't comment this shit, this is a song written by bruce springsteen all about his childhood,he is the only one suitable to sing this, and if u had any musical inclination you would know that this version is better
A lot of people at this concert were probably like whys bruce springsteen covering this song? but all the die hard boss fans know he was the one who wrote it long live the boss
by the way i like both his version and mms version
Was in the band in the early 70's in philly. I was working in cc philly and ond of our guaritar players called and said you got to hear this guy. It was Bruce. When we heard all of Greating we decided to cover Blined by the light and it went over very very good. Did not know that other band did it until I got older but never cared for it.
Gotta give Bruce some credit for writing the song, but Manfred's version totally blows this out of the water. And it's not like Manfred just played it better, his arrangement is just leaps and bounds ahead of this.
@CJ9M: i seriously disagree on that, even though the manfred mann version is highly appreciated by a lot of people. i think this song in its original version is simply one of the best songs ever written. the storytelling spirit of the song is captured so much better by the original than the cover...
@CJ9M Well, to his credit, Springsteen was only a kid when he wrote the song, whereas Manfred Mann had already been an established musician for a decade.
@CJ9M Mann has no song without The Boss's lyrics and that's a fact. Mann also copied and also covered Bruce's Spirit In the Night. The only hit song Mann is known for to the average person is in fact Blinded by The Light. To each their own.
"Mann has no song without The Boss's lyrics and that's a fact. The only hit song Mann is known for to the average person is in fact Blinded by The Light. "
WHAT??!!!
The average person needs to have a flick through Manfred Mann's back catalogue, some day! MM had many hits before Springsteen left school, but that is no reason to diss either group - it isn't a battle of the bands.
I expect Bruce is very happy that Manfred Mann covered his song - they've made him a lot of $!
I have to say I have always like Bruce Springsteen mainly because of my parent, though I can say I have never been a die hard fan. About two months ago I purchased Greetings From Asbury Park, N.J. and I must say that I am now a die hard Boss fan. One of the best albums I have ever heard. Has been on nonstop since I bought it.
Bruce is the best! Can anybody sing the Jersey shore or the working class better than him. He has got it and he sings it. Bruce is the sound track of my life. Jersey girl, now a Vermont one. But soulfully always with him.
I was 17 when this album came out and listened to it non stop. I moved to Oregon from Jersey in '76 and played Bruce non stop. My west coast friends were into Frampton, Doobie Bros., they would tell me all Bruce does is scream and yell and not sing. I told them just go see him once then tell me what you think. I'm glad to say I've converted many people along the way. Great to see the best rock and roll band still churning. Thanks for the memories Bruce. See you further on up the road!
PleASE, PLEASE, upload Restless Nights... I'm from Brasil and here is almost impossible I buy a DVD from you... I really want to watch this song live...
Wrapped up like a douche...
