Um...Did all of these people going crazy over this song hear the same one I heard? I only looked this up because I'm a JCM fan for like 30 years now. I heard about this show and never saw it. And I thought he SUUUUUUUUCKED!!!!!!!! What was with the talk-sing-pause-sing-pause-pau
se-sing-talk-pause-talk-sing CRAP he was doing? Losing his touch. BIGTIME. -
Absolutely amazing interpretation. Couldn't have done it without Kenny. Love seeing mellencamp and aronoff back together!

First off, I think this is an original interpretation of this song done as only Mellencamp can do it. But I'm willing to be that Springsteen was thinking "WHAT THE HELL..?

Unfortunately, this version is still incomplete, since during the middle of the song, Mellencamp told an apparently great story about when he first heard one of Springsteen's records playing in a record store. (I haven't heard the story myself, but I've heard/read a lot of positive stuff about it.) It's kinda strange that Mellencamp's official website is calling this "complete/unedited", since the story segment is missing completely. Perhaps he didn't like how he told the story?
