MILLWORKER by Bruce Springsteen

Add "&fmt=18" for the stereo version. From a tribute-to-James-Taylor wankfest.

C'mon people. Can't the Boss do a tribute to to a song and songwriter he respects without criticism. Great version with a lot of feeling.... Love to hear James T version of the River....MOT

As a former "factory worker", this song gives me chills.

[2012USNA]

Captures the anger and defeat of an unfulfilled person trapped in a meaningless existence. Much more powerful than the original.

[Jeremiah Johnson]

Easily the most self-indulgent crap I've ever heard (and I usually like Bruce).

[TheGabrielwalter]

I agree a female voice is called for if it is not. JTs,I love how Emmy Lou Harris sings it.nice try Bruce , but it kinda grated on me.love anyway😌

[Toivo Kallio]

"wankfest". Not a very nice term for a video description. In my opinion anyway.

[Sharon Rosen]

I am a huge Springsteen fan and a huge JT fan, and this version did very little for me. He's not in great voice and overpowers it a bit...but I still love him!

[Oliver Moriarty]

Different! As you'd expect from the boss!



[BRUCETHEBOSS2012]

[brucespringsteen1988]

I actually love this version. I'm a huge fan of James Taylor's music and own about every record you can own of his, but I actually like Springsteen's version better. The pain in his voice makes this song personal, as maybe a life-long millworker may sound. My grandfather was a mill foreman, and he had that pain...that pain...in his voice. Springsteen's version reminds me of him.
