@stevedrums Was never officially released on an album. Its on the Unplugged cd from 1993 and the Live In New York dvd though. Plenty of versions out there to download though.
The Story in the middle about NJ and NY is what makes it unique.....There are a ton of different versions, but only the Boss can walk into MSG and tease the NY crowd about the Jersey Devils , Etc , Etc and then win then back over the way he did...
You cut the story? The best part of the song...and why Bruce is THE man! And anyone who says he can't sing needs to really listen. He's one of rocks greatest singers. He always sounds like he's not going to hit the note....but he always does.
I'm blown away!!!! What an amazing performance!!! How can Lady Gaga and Justin Beiber have millions of views on their songs, and The Boss only have 58000 on this awesome song? It just makes me sad.
Great song. Nice to see that Bruce has written many outstanding songs with a sort of no purpose. I mean songs like Fire, Because the Night, American Skin, Land of hope and dreams, Wrecking Ball, Secret Garden and so on... Those songs weren't good enough for a cd, but I think almost every band in the world be proud of themselves if they make only one of these songs. And Bruce is able to treat them like 'not really important' songs
@davidstrat Please refrain from speaking. Also clearly saw him playing such chords as E in this video alone. Also you must have closed you hears for the BITCHIN' solo.
Bruce es el mas GRANDE !!! quien podria igualar esto ??? nadie... it changed my life... still waiting for you in Mexico Bruce !!! (remember watching this show on HBO... april 2001)
The only person I've seen come even close to working a crowd like this is Freddie Mercury..if you've seen the DVD..Queen at Wembley '86 you'll know what I mean.
After watching this video for the 1000th time, I have decided I no longer require the internet. Because their is NOTHING on it that is going to come close to topping this.
he wrote it, as cottonbaxter said. As a matter of fact, the movie producer/director (i forget which one) asked him to write them a song for a movie so he did. He ended up writing them born in the usa, but he liked it too much and kept it and wrote this. Good call i'd say
eat a hot bowl of fuck asshole. The Boss would flip your candy ass up and kick you back were you belong - the world where pussies like you lay down with a Fall out Boy CD and put on eyeliner.
well clarence clemens live not to far from where i do and his home is a mansion and i have drove by at times and seen dozens of high priced cars around back.
He's gonna burn the Super Bowl down! But....what will he play? He needs at least 30 minutes to give the crowd just a taste of what he's like on stage. Unreal, baby. Unreal.
This is by far, the most intense, the most electrifying, hard core, super duper, high speed low drag, fast and furious, on stage performance ever done by one man I have ever seen! Good God Almighty! I need a drink!!!
No, it is from the early 90's tour. I have a bootlegged version of this exact song, with the full story in the middle. I can email it to you if you want.
