This is 9/20/78. Almost positive. I have the bootlegs of all three shows from the three night stint in Passaic in 1978. In this video at 0:45, Roy hits a really high note on the Piano that he didn't usually hit in this song. 9/19/78 and 9/21/78 doen't have that. Only 9/20 does, at the exact same moment
This is the only time Bruce kinda saw God. And it's in no Karaoke book at all. Hey "Boss," why did you depart from this Path? Too Punk? Too Cool? His Irrelevancy doesn't know. :P
I'd say this musta been 20 September 1978 (or possibly '79). Anyway: Thanks for the upload, because Sony just about blocks nearly everything the 'Boss' ever did. If I didn't know better I'd probably swear Sony was trying to hurt themselves, or something.

Springsteen is way over-rated. He stole this song from Patti Smith...stole it like most of his hits. Fallout Boy is truer to the REAL ROCK. Plus Bruce is a RACIST! He never credits that black guy. ALL HAIL FALLOUT BOY and MAROON 5...REAL TRUE ROCK!
he wrote because the night fucking dumbass he gave it to her he thought darkness on the edge of town would never come out so he gave some of the songs to other artist such as FIRE and because the night NOW go fuck yourself u teenage girl
He gave a lot of songs away because he wasn't legally allowed to record for three years but he cowrote Because the Night with PS, it wasn't pre-written then given to her.
@glammer Because the Night was 99.99% done and a demo recorded before Patty even heard the song. Jimmy Iovine (her producer) begged her to add a hit to her lame sounding album and she finally added her "contribution" of a couple of lines of verse and recorded the song. 'Co-wrote' is a huge stretch.
I knew she wasn't exactly that bothered about it and Bruce seems to sing some different lyrics live but not 99.99%. Iovine seemed to do the same with Graham Parker's 'Endless Night', a really pointless "guest appearance" that did neither any favours.
@kindadork u are a big fool and knw nothing abourt bruce if u dnt like him then go away hey "why do u stick around and watch his videos....bruce put a black man on his album cover that album cover is called born to run one of the greatest roll albums ever made..

FallOut Boy owns Springsteen. Here is why. Joe Trohman, FOB's AXE MASTER, is a much better guitarist!
Bruce Springsteen=B.S.=BULLSHIT! And he is a sell-out...almost all his songs are in corporate radio format. HE TAKES MONEY FROM CRIMINALS!
RACISM! Bruce is RACIST. He never gave the spotlight to that black man on stage with him. No one will ever know about him because Bruce the Bigot gave the stage to all the white musicians and ignored the minority players. RACISM!
Fist, I cant say i have listen tp any FOB song, perhaps some but they i didnt like em but everyone have the right to like what erver he and/or she want.
And sellout? I would say that's the last thing hi is.
And last, a racist? Not giving spotlite to "to the that black man"?Are you kidding? Clarence Clemons is the one member who get the most recognition and spotlight. His the "Big Man" he sings about in "Tenth Avenue Freeze-Out",
@KINGDINGLEDORK you are so right. he should definately have showcased that spook playing the tambourine. tambourine solos are so great. you are a complete IDIOT. what are you like 12? are you really comparing one of the pioneers of rock to fk'n fall out fags? Sellout? He is one of the original bad boys. His music was/is original not a carbon copy of a hundred other wanna be's like fall out boy. Jesus Christ you are shallow.
@KINGDINGLEDORK Dude, this Springsteen video is from 1978... How old do you think your FOB boys were in 1978? Could possibly be the dumbest post I have ever seen.
This song is actually about a guy who's fooling himself about Candy -- he's not one bit more closer than all the other guys Candy sees. But Candy has a way to make him feel so special that he believes that "What. She. Wants. Is... Me." Which of course, is Candy's magic.
What a brilliant song. The only bad thing about it is that it ends.
To the non-Bruce fan, this song's title makes it sound like a regular about-a-girl song. But listen to it, esp. the "Live 75-85" version, and this song will generate enough electricity to light a house. This song gets my blood going! Bruuuuce!
Hmm. How about we simply enjoy this for what it is... one of the most gorgeous Springsteen songs, and one that shows Little Steven at his best as well. O.K.?
Just over 3 minutes of heaven. All of my favourite songs are like that and leave you wanting more. The Boss is in my top 5 and of everything he has ever done " Candy's Room" comes out top. A crescendo of a song starting with double ride Hi Hat joined by a wonderful piano riff as the vocals begin. The song turns into a rollercoaster ride that is only broken up by a guitar solo that proves that true inspiration will always win over notes per second. And with lyrics which take you into his head.
I saw FallOut Boy do this song last tour and IT ROCKED! The back story is that Joe Trohman, FOB's AXE-MASTER, once punched a drunken Springsteen at an awards show. Bruce was acting all ghetto and Trohman was having none of it. Bruce tried to sucker-punch Trohman who then decked the cowardly Boss. I guess Bruce CRIED and RAN AWAY LIKE A BITCH! FALLOUT BOY are the NEW BAD BOYS OF CLASSIC ROCK! FALLOUT BOY ARE ROCK GODZ! ALL HAIL FALLOUT BOY!
Yah, I never heard that -- but FOB owning metal is funny. They are just pop products that no one will care about come 2013. Enjoy them and revisit them in 2020. Sure, they are big now but don't say the own Metal, all real metal bands laugh at them, their image and what they stand for. FOB = Joke.
Fall Out Boy would probably give anything to be as good as Springsteen was then and is now, there is no way they will last as long as Springsteen. When FOB is releasing new albums 30 years from now then you can talk, maybe.
Great vid, wish more people know this song. LOVE it.
and on this topic, ironically, Springsteen's daughter (Jessica is her name, I think?) is a huge Fall Out Boy fan. I forgot where I heard it, but it was from a very credible source. Her and her father went to a show or two of the band's together.
@DJWROCKS I never heard one song by "Fall-Out Boy"---and don't ever care to. I have no idea who these new groups are. None of them compare to Springsteen, you're right! Old music is all I care about.
um...Springsteen in a legend... a classic. FOB is just one out of an entire lineup of completely manufactured bands. They are a trend, they will fade. Springsteen is like a LBD, he will never fade, he will never go out of style. His status of a legend will never diminish. Springsteen is a storyteller who evokes emotions and stirs up feelings in his listeners. FOB can barely string together a meaningful verse; at least not one which people will look back at in years and remember as having depth.
This is Bruce & the boys at their peak! Bruce was and is a fantastic guitarist.
I'm sick of his political BS too even if I agree with most of his stands. How fucking bigoted to rip republicans too BTW. Fucking Dems are the same powerhungry bastards incapable of independant thought. Check out libertarian & other parties for independant thought.
I'd love at least one more oldschool record with the power, energy and passion of his first few albums again!
No, you are not the only one. Bruce has an amazing feel for the guitar, his bends are unique and he controls the dynamics exactly as he does with his singing, song arrangements, and his band. Not to forget he's also playing great rhythm while singing AND playing leads and fills. Back in 1970 he was known as THE guitar player at the shore - more so than his singing. He canned the big Les Paul/Marshall stack sound when he turned to a more folk/Van Morrison/Dylan/The Band sound.
Nope - many people do. Which is of course strange, as one only has to look back at some of his live concerts from the 70s and 80s to see he can most certainly handle his axe.
bruce has always been a political figure. born in the usa is a critical diatribe. listen to the intro to the river from live 1975-1985. he's always been a political guy and its been a part of the stuff hes created. how could you have such a perspective on the working-class struggle and be a republican in this era? whether you agree with his politics or not, you can't deny that he's 1. always been political and 2. understandably liberal given his background and perspective.
Bruce still at his best. Bums me out he ditched music for political preaching.
GREAT CLIP!! Don't know where you got this thing but it's 100% platinum treasure! Born to Run & Darkness on the Edge of Town were, are and always will be 2 seminal records in rock history, epic in sound and breadth.
Damn...forgot just how much energy they gang used to have. Unbridled, sheer rock & roll joy...
this breaks my heart to hear/see I remember being 15 and loving this song-bittersweet, I guess...Almost as much as "because the night" by patty smith or "Thunder Road"
wow, this is what I love about Youtube...we are lucky to have this. Just thought of this song, hadn't heard it in ages, and then like that find this video. I am not even like a huge Bruce fan, but I have to say he is one of America's top poets and songwriters. This song is so emotional, and like a lot of Bruce's stuff just gets down to the soul of what its like to grow up in America. Praise the Boss!

I remember watching him on Midnight Special back in like '76 and while I FELL IN LOVE that night, I knew that at the time, people outside the tri-state area would NEVER understand either the lyrics or the locations he sang about...good thing I was wrong! Rock on Bruce...I saw ya in Jersey summer of '99 and baby you still got it!!
"putting Scialfa on stage with him. She sucked him dry"
Agree! Agree!
Pity enough, he told her when she was very underage that she could come back to him when she was a bit older.. and she did! (and was also clever enough to do a music study in the mean while)
I remember back in Sept. '79 at Madison Square Garden in NYC "No Nukes Concert"....(I was there one night) where he "pretended" to faint during one of the encores. I don't remember if it was during Rosalita. Is this what you're referring to?
sjakdotpunt: While you're here on youtube, type Springsteen Quarter To Three....in the search bar. This is an old Gary U.S. Bonds tune. This is where Bruce "pretends" to faint, at the NO Nukes Concert in New York. Hope this is what you were searching for..........I'm a prisoner................of ROCK & ROLL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
to "1bossfan": I couldn't agree more. I'm a life long South Jersey native. I have this concert on VHS, and also on 8-track, if you can believe that. Used to listen to it every day when I was 17, back in '78, in my fathers '66 Mustang. My girlfriend thought I was nuts. She once said, "You'll be sick of this soon". Well,its been almost 30 yrs since that comment, and I guesss I'm still nuts. Rock on 1bossfan to another.
What a song! What an album! This song reminds me of lying on my bed and listening to this CD (when CD's first came out) in total darkness and getting lost in these stories. Ahh, Bruce.
I think it's Sept 1978 if it's Passaic. It's made the rounds as a Brucelag favorite by many. Regardless of video quality, it should be released. This was also broadcast on radio at the time, clips of which have been played on FM radio in the late 70s and early 80s. Hopefully better quality footage exists out there, because the Darkness and River tours were pretty awesome. The Born in the USA and Tunnel of Love tours have tons of footage.
Keep it angry Bruce!

I remember watching him on Midnight Special back in like '76 and while I FELL IN LOVE that night, I knew that at the time, people outside the tri-state area would NEVER understand either the lyrics or the locations he sang about...good thing I was wrong! Rock on Bruce...I saw ya in Jersey summer of '99 and baby you still got it!!

She says baby if you wanna be wild you got a lot to learn, close your eyes
Let them melt let them fire let them burn

When I hold candy close she makes these hidden worlds mine...

Jumped the shark when he started putting Scialfa on stage with him. She sucked him dry.

"putting Scialfa on stage with him. She sucked him dry"
Agree! Agree!
Pity enough, he told her when she was very underage that she could come back to him when she was a bit older.. and she did! (and was also clever enough to do a music study in the mean while)

So, here are some die-hard fans?
I wanna know.. does somebody know what I mean with the performance in which he fainted while doing (if my memory works well) Rosalita?
sjakdotpunt 4 years ago
I remember back in Sept. '79 at Madison Square Garden in NYC "No Nukes Concert"....(I was there one night) where he "pretended" to faint during one of the encores. I don't remember if it was during Rosalita. Is this what you're referring to?
vanparty 4 years ago
Maybe!.. I gues so..
Thanx for the reply!
(gonna search further... now I know there are more fans who know what I meant.. cool!)

sjakdotpunt: While you're here on youtube, type Springsteen Quarter To Three....in the search bar. This is an old Gary U.S. Bonds tune. This is where Bruce "pretends" to faint, at the NO Nukes Concert in New York. Hope this is what you were searching for..........I'm a prisoner................of ROCK & ROLL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ah, the Darkness Days. '78 was a very good year for Bruce fans.

to "1bossfan": I couldn't agree more. I'm a life long South Jersey native. I have this concert on VHS, and also on 8-track, if you can believe that. Used to listen to it every day when I was 17, back in '78, in my fathers '66 Mustang. My girlfriend thought I was nuts. She once said, "You'll be sick of this soon". Well,its been almost 30 yrs since that comment, and I guesss I'm still nuts. Rock on 1bossfan to another.

What a song! What an album! This song reminds me of lying on my bed and listening to this CD (when CD's first came out) in total darkness and getting lost in these stories. Ahh, Bruce.

Makes sense. I've got a bootleg boxed set of Passaic '78 on vinyl.

I think it's Sept 1978 if it's Passaic. It's made the rounds as a Brucelag favorite by many. Regardless of video quality, it should be released. This was also broadcast on radio at the time, clips of which have been played on FM radio in the late 70s and early 80s. Hopefully better quality footage exists out there, because the Darkness and River tours were pretty awesome. The Born in the USA and Tunnel of Love tours have tons of footage.
