Bruce Springsteen Jersey Girl

[cooliobots]

It's going to be LEGENDARY!

[W8PProducer]

how i met your mother, brought me here :D

[KeenDan7]

There are few things better in live music than when a performer pays tribute to the place where you're from or where you live with a song. I'm not from New Jersey. I'm not even from America, but this is, without a doubt, my favourite version of the song based purely on the crowd's response to it.

[MyMultimedia]

14 Katy Perry fans watched this video just to give it a dislike.

[HugoPachecoCabral]

Thanks Ted Moseby, ur the best for bringing me here

[AKCB4LIFE]

@HugoPachecoCabral lol same reason i jus looked up this song

[videotowatch2000]

Hey, thanks for posting the video. I've travelled and nothing beats the jersey shore and the boardwalk. mtv really did a hatchet job and an injustice to the greatness of n.j. shores. as a native new jersian I miss the heck outta the shores. no beaches match up to Pt. Pleasant, L.B.I., Wildwood, Cape May, Etc., Jenkinson's rules. I get homesick listenen to this. Hope to get back soon.

[aznilsson]

Springsteen does this beautiful Waits tune well!

[jakymossi]

Son répertoire ! Mon adorable Coco, Sa beauté Intérieure mais aussi extérieure nous a réunie dans une profonde amitié !!! 

[Jay3mBee]

Man... The Boss sure can tell a story! GREAT song!

[membear]

@Jay3mBee He can, and Born To Run tells a great story, by he didn't write this one.

[Jay3mBee]

@membear I know he didn't write the song, buddy... I'm just saying the man can tell a story. Whether or not he wrote it is irrelevant.

[Move180247]

@Jay3mBee Read the comments I replied to, maybe you'll understand.

[KeenDan7]

Sing sha la la la la la la. Lovely, lovely song.

[IandAproductioN]

I'm a huge Waits fan, and i think it says something about who he speaks too that so many other hugely talented musicians find themselves covering his songs. It is ridiculous that anyone would think this version, or any other version, is insulting. Bruce did well.

[mrbrightside06]

i think this songs incredibly romantic personally, and if you like this song, and dont listen to springsteen alot you should listen to tougher than the rest too

[11lzyes]

tom waits version is better :p 

[membear]

@11lzyes This is the best version, sung so well it sound like a studio track instead of live.

[occupationbluesman]

I used to sing this all the time for practice

[MWCR]

phwoarrr

[SLANGENBURGH]

Great song. One of the best numbers of Tom Waits, performed by on of the greatest r&r voices!

[Fitna4Allah]

PVV PVV PVV PVV PVV PVV PVV PVV PVV PVV PVV PVV PVV PVV PVV PVV PVV PVV PVV PVV PVV PVV PVV PVV PVV PVV

[olison2]

Im a proud Jersey girl :) the stereotypes are wrong...but people can believe what they want. They're missing out by judging us. Now, sing it Bruce!

[MyMultimedia]

@olison2 You sound like you're very nice. And I agree with you and this song, Jersey girls are much nicer and fun to be around than the stereotypes these days say they are!

[AyyeeItsHarii]

Ahh old time favorites even though im not even that old lol but I loved the movie it was so cute and the song at the end made me want to look it up

[StonefishZN]

LOVE IT...!!

[MyMultimedia]

If you want to know what Jersey Girls are really like, NEVER TRUST STEREOTYPES! All the Jersey Girls I know, they're very friendly, caring, hard working, and down to earth! And they all love to brighten people's days!

And remember, Snooki is NOT a Jersey Girl!

[fcuktoobu]

Best music for down the shore ever. Don't care about other beaches, only the Jersey Shore does the trick. Been going down every summer of my life (51 summers people!) and I never get tired of it. Re the show Jersey Shore, it's a total misrepresentation and the people in it are the lowest forms of life. This song is eternal.

[kleinemaan]

this song warms my heart

[Rustina61]

Perfect singer, perfect music. What a pretty song, through and through.

[AEJ74]

Goose bumps!

Thumbs up!

[hdcase00]

Jersey Girls don't pump gas <3

[stauers]

God bless Tom god damned Waits........and also bruce's version. Perfect

[taphophile570]

I wouldn't take 1000 California Girls for my one Jersey Girl... <3

[johnnyM809]

"We're gonna take that little brat of yours and drop her off at your Moms"

My Favourite Bruce ad libbed line ever !!....always cracks me up.

What a great rendition of a great song

[RabidFlaminChipmunks]

Jersey girl by Tom Waits, as performed by Bruce Springsteen. Just putting this out there.

[richardradovic1973]

@RabidFlaminChipmunks yer no one really knows how awesome tom waits is :)

[612gideon]

Much Love... Jersey Girl...

[thedenisa07]

BORN IN THE HEART OF NJ

[MrWhoareyou515]

this just makes me proud to be from jersey! having the best singer songwriter and performer we have ever known, from the garden state

[MoistPanty]

When you are talking about music that is played on commercial radio stations i fully agree. Currently it is all just about money and the lyrics are slim to none, while in the past it was about telling a story or sending out a message. Thank whoever that rap and all that horrible noise is fading out but we get lady gaga, rhianna and what not in return. It makes me sick but more so that the current generation is polluted by all of it.

[MyMultimedia]

@MoistPanty Don't forget Katy Perry! Many of her fans don't even know any of the many reasons why many of her songs are legally considered by the federal government as sexually explicit!

Also, don't forget to give my comment a thumbs up if you agree with me! I'm thrilled it made it into the top comments list!

[bluzercic]

legend, legendary. 

[Klingan90]

Springsteen is my dads favourite musician, and I think it's catching...

[PaganCount]

cigarettes get new meaning when you listen to songs like this

[roxydog2004]

Some times streets are renamed after people who are deemed worthy, maybe they should call it the C street band, after Clarence Clemons R I P big man

[dontdrinkme1]

12 people must have lost their Jersey Girl

[popy797]

@dontdrinkme1 I agree.What are these people thinking of.They have no taste.

[kakarante]

tom waits!! the best of all

[homemoviescolorado]

For the record, Jersey Girls are NOT dim witted drunken over tanned skanks like you see on Jersey Shore

[taphophile570]

@homemoviescolorado : Agreed! My Jersey Girl is a beautiful, intelligent, successful woman. Having her makes me a better man...

[MyMultimedia]

@taphophile570 Yes, yes! I agree with both homemoviescolorado and taphophile570! I have a Jersey Girl as well. She is a straight A student, she is beautiful, intelligent and successful, just like yours, taphohile570, she does a countless number of cool things, and because of all this, she was able to make 40+ friends during her first week of high school alone! Talk about incredible!

California "Gurls" could never do this! Remember to give my top comment a thumbs up if you agree!

[amandaynot]

@homemoviescolorado  COULD NT SAID IT BETTER!

[deriter64]

@homemoviescolorado I just stumbled across your comment while listening to some Springsteen and Waits and it never occurred to me that the lyrics could hurt someone. I don't really know what a Jersey Girl is and I can only guess at skank but from a far away Canadian the song doesn't influence my opinion of people. All the best.

[jerzgrl311]

@homemoviescolorado thank you!!! i try to tell people that all the time, i moved to nc a few years ago and when people find out in from jersey they think i act like them on jersey shore. not true what so ever!! it really pisses me off when people hate on jersey and people from their just bcuz of the show, they have given us a bad name now bcuz they think we act like that. jersey will always be my home and hate when ppl talk shit lol

[nobber1587]

What album is this of??

[smallblock58]

@nobber1587 . Its from the live album, 1975-85 contains 3 cds 40 tracks and is brilliant

[nobber1587]

@smallblock58 thanks buddy, ftr everything he does is brilliant i gotta thank my mam fr playing him non stop wen i was a kid

[lordbyron46]

What a beautiful song

[dminrunyon]

cause down the shore everythings alright....

[gijoe989]

jersey girls gijoe 989.

[mysonsmysons]

((BIG SIGH)) still gives me shivers.

[KarleyIsAvrilsNo1Fan]

I just heard this song in the movie Jersey Girl (1992) and I just loved it. That was such a great movie too!!! :) (The guy in the Jersey Girl movie was hot too lmao!!!)

[jbbl4]

@jerseyirish well of course the old seaside before it became "sleazide" was great! and asbury and long branch are just plain classic!

[racerfan29j]

Al Torchia and The Tattered Saints

hey im trying to help one of my friends out on here and if you could id really like it if you went and checked this new band out and if you like it like the facebook page and spread them around . thanks,oh to get to there music go under info and its at the bottom.

[Eagle027]

@springsteenismyhero Fact, none of the assholes on Jersey Shore are from New Jersey. Second fact people from New Jersey hate the damn show with a passion. Third fact, Jersey Shore is an image, a wrong image put forth by California network bosses who are assholes. I was born and raised in New York but know enough about Jersey that its more then northeast Jersey and Atlantic City. Hunterdon an Warren counties are simply beautiful and south Jersey farms have the best produce around.

[jerseyirish]

@Eagle027 Preach!! U hit the nail on the head. Believe it or not, there's also a little old farms in northern Bergen Co. in Closter (practically borderline of NY, next to Alpine). I work in Closter and can actually hear a rooster in the distance cluck in the morning when I arrive at times.

[Eagle027]

@jerseyirish I get just as angry when I hear people say anybody from New York State sounds like they come from the South Bronx. I was raised at the base of the Adirondack Mountains. Oh, one last thing about Jersey, its called the Garden State for a reason. One thing nimrods from other parts don't understand.

[jbbl4]

one of those songs that make me feel proud to be who i am. gotta love being a jersey girl!! and i grew up on the boardwalk. The real one in asbury, not trashy sleazside :P

[jerseyirish]

@jbbl4 Hey Ive had great times in Sleazide in my younger days, fuck MTV. But then again Ive had great times in Asbury. Ah wild Stone Pony nights....

[popi1496]

im from georgia and in 30 minutes i fell in love with a girl from jersey at the airport damn i want to go there when i get older

[57codex]

This song makes me want to f**k a Jersey Girl, not too difficult since I live in Jersey, Channel Islands and I am married to one!

[deserteag1e50AE]

If your not from Jerzy then get the F**K out

[lmdeyoung1]

This makes me so happy to be a JERSEY GIRL !! I've always loved this song.

RIP Clarence ! Miss You !

[wtlodge40]

I AM going to marry a Jersey girl!

[lukeiamyourfaja]

11 people didn't marry jersey girls

[oicwatudidthare]

It know it's been said a million times, but damn I miss you Clarence. @5:30

[volbeatnl]

@oicwatudidthare Me too it fucking hurts when i think about it and realize i`m not going to see him perform live with the e-street band ever again! Dead yes... Forgotten NEVER!!!!

[raddlecan]

This song is one of the all time best!!! i lived in cape may nj for 12 years brings me right back....i live in california again and yes i imported my jersey girl!!!!

[rmals14]

THAT'S what music is all about!!!

[wordwiz38]

This song reminds me of this place called the Ichi-Ban it was in upstate NY it was hoppin in the 80's and the whole bar used to sing this song so loud GOOD TIMES 

[caroljenny44]

I am PROUD to be a JERSEY GIRL ,and we don;t have to pump gas either.Nothing like the "JERSEY SHORE" shore in the summer

[jasonvoorhees285]

my girl back in the 80.s was from yonkers her name was jennerfer

[612gideon]

Love it I'm a " Jersey Girl "  visit my channel all are welcome, stop by before Rosh hashanna because I Say Goodbye ! then

[billtox]

Farewell Big Man.......

[jasonolds442]

RIP Big Man. Best Sax Solo EVER, right here.

[scotswanderer]

@jasonolds442 Amen to that.

[Hughezy]

this is the one from the 75-85 live album?

[AirSniper1234]

What happened to music like this? Can someone explain to me why the music now a days doesn't give me that feeling to on the inside to just love life. I hate living with this music now a days and everything...I just can't explain it :(

[TheDonOfToad]

@AirSniper1234 Wait for Tom Waits to write stuff

[taylorjuwig]

@AirSniper1234 Please listen to The Gaslight Anthem if you've given up on "new" bands. They are heavily influenced by Bruce and basically reinstated my faith in music. Try "The 59 Sound"

[brusk62]

@AirSniper1234 thank god we still have plenty of good old music, and you always have that.

[outlaw4a]

@AirSniper1234 I can explain it. They are in it for the money now. The intensity isn't there, it's just enough to make a buck.

[oscar6123]

@outlaw4a Can't agree more, Outlaw. Today's music is so sterile and heartless. Their so busy propping up good looking no-talents and then wonder why their industry is going down the shit hole.

[bournebutler]

@AirSniper1234 you obviously aren't looking hard enough. there are a ton of quality bands out there. you just have to find them.

[manuelcremonese]

@AirSniper1234 nothing to explain, it's so clear.

[danthedude1996]

Like the Tom Waits version better, but both are fucking gold.

[MrCedarPawn]

Such a wonderful song for such an utterly loathsome subject... Springsteen's a genius!

[ECDL4]

Bruce good to talk with you yesterday. Tell Mary I said Hi.

Brian

[MyMultimedia]

Not only are Jersey Girls more pretty and nice than California Girls, Bruce Springsteen's a way better singer than Katy Perry! Thumbs up if you agree!

[jerseyirish]

LOL at people bringing up that horrendous MTV bullshit we hate it here! Real Jersey girls will always be the most delicious.

[woman7800]

AWSOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Says it all!!!!!!!!

[shamanetjuh]

this song gives me the chills just as "the River" does ! Bruce way to go

[jasonvoorhees285]

i love this song i remember it from my teens

[fyre26]

youtube.com/user/myETVmedia#p/­a/f/0/btYLm8JUqWc

[Rustina61]

I would have loved to see Bruce sing this particular version of the song live. The crowd is so quiet, you can hear every word.

[vinnied8504]

i am marrying a jersey girl in 2 months and i would like to off myself

[janeusa22]

Listening to Bruce on this song makes you realize why he's BOSS......................

[xOriginalxPx]

R....i....P

[bnlphan101]

Tom Waits wrote it

[bokkum456]

this song makes me so happy :D

[chriswz261]

@bokkum456 This song is soooo good! Springsteen is a bad ass and a great songwriter!

[00maharum00ma]

@chriswz261

He didn't write this song. Tom Waits did.

[xOriginalxPx]

RiP bruce...

i only found out this morning...

[dani9714]

@xOriginalxPx WTF? Bruce is perfectly alive and still rocking (:

[DNAblues]

@xOriginalxPx fortunately you are totally wrong. Bruce is alive and well.

[thedenisa07]

NEVER GET SICK OF THIS SONG!!!

MAYBE CAUSE IM A JERSEY GIRL :))

[bnlphan101]

@thedenisa07

Im in the same boat.

[mcstereo]

As far as I'm concerned, the boss is the only person that should be allowed to cover Tom Waits.

[shawndimery]

@mcstereo Not Rod Stewart then? haha! Totally agree brother

[StarWarsGeek1970]

As a Jersey Girl born and bread, I can think of this as my theme song!

[mercfan74]

BPO87: Well that's good because he didn't write Jersey Girl. Tom Waits did.

[bigjerseydog1270]

@mercfan74 tom waits wrote it but bruce put it on the map

[mercfan74]

Well that's good because he didn't write Jersey Girl. Tom Waits did.

[WeFourKings1]

@bp087 Of course Springsteen would never write a song about this, he didn't even write the song.(; It's Tom Waits' song originally. Written AND performed by Tom Waits.

[SSLOVESNYC]

Watched the film and fell in love with this song, aaarh.......

[iLOVEthe80TWILIGHT13]

I'm a Jersey girl :) We really are the best kind

[MaxKirk21]

@iLOVEthe80TWILIGHT13 the best kind of trash maybe

[iLOVEthe80TWILIGHT13]

@MaxKirk21 Trash?! First off, The Jersey Shore gave us a bad name. Those idiots aren't ANYTHING like most people in Jersey. And if you're so against jersey girls why the hell would you be listening to this song? Does Springsteen's interpretation of a Jersey Girl sound like trash to you?

[iLOVEthe80TWILIGHT13]

@MaxKirk21 Trash?! What ignorance! If your thinking about The Jersey Shore on MTV than you're pretty naiive. Those idiots aren't anything like most people from Jersey! And if you think we're such "trash" than why the hell would you be listening to this song?!

[MaxKirk21]

@iLOVEthe80TWILIGHT13 no, im thinking about regular jersey girls. and yes. i mean trash. and maybe because its a good song, or is it impossible to like this song but not jersey girls. stfu

[iLOVEthe80TWILIGHT13]

@MaxKirk21 either way that's incredibly biased and ignorant to think that they're all the same

[MaxKirk21]

@iLOVEthe80TWILIGHT13 well seeing that youre a self centered, arrogant, twilight loving person. i assume youre trash as well

[alexfigler]

they played this at my bestfriends funeral she was too young and i love it i cant stop thinking of her :(

[knag2092]

God this makes me miss Jersey! Only three months til I get to see my beautiful Shore :)

[gohane420]

Jersey Girls are crazy lmao !!

For Realz

[cheribukowski]

bruce rocks, cant get any better than this....... keep with rocking bruce......

[kmacmuzikmafia27]

I hate Jersey Shore for making me immediately think of Snooki when I hear this song. The show is a guilty pleasure. And now this song is forever connected with it :(

Whyyyy?

[GLynn4421]

the fact that snooki's name even came up in a comment on this song seriously upsets me. how could you compare jersey shore to Springsteen?! you can't! lol! <3 The Boss <3

[jollyqban03]

i'm proud to be a jersey girl && this song is perfect and reminds me of home =)

[izzanono]

The Jersy girl I fell for lives in Nevada.....take um outta Jersey but never Jersey outta dem girls

[wolfkin71]

Have to give props to Tom Waits for writing this awesome song but I think it was meant for Bruce I mean he sings the shit out of it ! Also LOVE the bass in this .

[smclean1979]

@wolfkin71

I love Tom Waits and I know he wrote it for his wife, but you're right, The Boss' version is better.

[cbaile]

Love Tom Waits music.

[sieke]

this song reminds me my girl.... now she's gone and i want to cry all night long

[BrandiAgainLuvsYa]

nothing matters in the whole wide world when ur in love with a Brooklyn girl!!!! like me!!!! ;)

[sleepalldayful]

@BrandiAgainLuvsYa nah i am a jersey girl nothing is better then a jersey girl we are really not the trash u see at the shore okaii u have thewrong view and i hate that

[BrandiAgainLuvsYa]

@sleepalldayful yea i got where your comming from. i like jersey, its like a quiet version of new york. plus my dads from new jersey so i cant hate on jersey much lol!

[Soprano423JA]

11 People Could NEVER Measure up to a true Jersey Girl! <3 

[xrowdyroddypiperx]

THUMBS UP FOR SNOOKI

[bpo87]

@xrowdyroddypiperx gtfo, springsteen would never write a song about the type of trash on jersey shore. snooki is from NY anyway.

[warriormonkey03]

@bpo87 You're right, and he didn't. This song was written and originally performed by Tom Waits. Springsteen covered this song off of Tom Waits, 1980 Heart attack and Vine Record. He did however add a verse and change a line of the song.

[foolishsensei]

@bpo87 Springsteen never wrote this

[moonwalk30]

@bpo87 actually this is a tom waits cover. he wrote it, not springsteen. just sayin.

[emma1876]

@bpo87 Tom Waits wrote it, actually.

[PreNodonna]

@bpo87 firstt off u stupidd fuck....im from fucking jersey and i may be a guidette but im not trash. and you clearly have NO idea wht ur talking about becus snooki is from CHILLI and was adopted by an italian family in new york u dbag soo dont u go talking shit whn u know nothing.

[bpo87]

@PreNodonna I don't even need to comment on the irony of YOU calling someone stupid. First, stupid, what, because, Chile, when. Learn to speak english you waste of life.

[doughstin]

@bpo87 Actually this song wasn't written by Springsteen, even though he does perform it wonderfully! It was written by Tom Waits.

[Mount4inD00]

@bpo87 Springsteen didn't write the song. Tom Waits did.

[Move180247]

@Mount4inD00 @homemoviescolorado I always thought Springsteen wrote this song about Snooki.

[membear]

@Move180247 He didn't write this song, Tom Waits wrote it.

[Move180247]

@membear Read the comments I replied to, maybe you'll understand.

[iloveballsweat]

@bpo87 and springsteen didn't write the song anyway, tom waits did (who is an absolute genius in his own right)

[Soprano423JA]

@xrowdyroddypiperx THUMBS WAYYYY DOWN

[thedenisa07]

Jersey gals are gorgeous!!!!!!

[mbcx0x157e]

Nothing matters in this whole wide world.. when your in love with a jersey girll <3

truuue fact right there.

[RileyM0730]

This song makes me want to marry a girl from Jersey...

[Bobk857]

@RileyM0730

I have married Jersey Girls, twice and I will love both oft them until the day I die. Unfortunately both decided that they no longer love me.

[MikeStivic]

@RileyM0730 I did marry a girl from Jersey. I'm from PA. It all happened just like the song says...except she didn't have a kid. Been married going on 13 yrs. This probably should have been our wedding song.

[theDukeOfEmerald]

@RileyM0730 go find the bad side of your own town or city bud, that's the jersey side ;)

I have one myself.. they rock.

[k0ffiemelk]

@RileyM0730 What you said!

[k0ffiemelk]

@RileyM0730

Same here lol
