    :No one but no one can ever perform this song like he does. I'm 78 yrs. old, have cancer and kidney failure etc. and even though I can't get up and dance to this song, I'm pretty good at dancing in my chair. lol He just lifts my spirit listening to him and watching him perform. I give thanks to you, Bruce, for making my day a little brighter.

    He was suffering from Alzheimers, but every time I played this song, a big smile appeared on his face.

    This is the song that awoke me in difficult times. I mirrored myself in the lyrics, it truly described how I felt and what I was going through in such a personal, clean and profound way. It made me feel understood, not alone, I used to listen to it before I had a test at university, before a great event, when I was feeling extra happy, when I needed a boost of strenght or when I was feeling like shit. It's mesmerizing to me how this tune can convey such different messages and talk to everyone. It still inspires me not to give up on anything. This song is truly magical and I think it will always be my favourite. Thanks Springsteen.

    Almost impossible to believe, I was at that show in June 1984 at the St Paul Civic Center, Bruce played that song 3 times in a row to get all the footage needed, he was so apologetic and we just didn’t care! The crowd went wild when he pulled that girl on stage to dance, we didn’t know she was planted there or that 10 years later, she would become Monica on Friends. Now I watch this and I feel like I’m there again.

About reaching for something else, wanting more from your life and being honest about your struggles.

    The Boss was an absolute class act. He stayed true to his roots, a working man and never forgot it and he played hard rock for hard living people. Now I am 77 - same age as Bruce - and I watch these videos on YT and explain to my Thai wife in Thai what the Boss is singing and she relates. Music is universal and rock n roll music was revolutionary then and it is fabulous now.

      I always felt the same way since first hearing this years ago. Music has a way of allowing for communication that is of a higher form than linguistics and this song is a prime example of that. The earnest desperation of life’s struggles and the angst and yearning that comes with it is greatly expressed here. The rhythmic beats, poetry, sounds have a way of expressing this far more accurately than words ever could. Sentences and speech we just a means to an end and a rather ineffective one at that. Music does it better. It’s a strong plea of desperation and also expresses the emptiness and void of “dancing in the dark” that can seem inescapable.

My Dad is now gone 7 yrs and every time I listen to this song it brings me to tears, but also wonderful memories.❤ Especially, if it was on the radio and we were at a red light.

    Like someone wrote before. This song is bittersweet for me. My mother’s favorite Springsteen song. 12 years ago, she was sick in the hospital and I went out to run an errand. When I turned on the fm radio of my car this song started to play. It was a beautiful morning, the sky was sparkling blue with a nice breeze and a few clouds, but the moment I heard the song, I don’t know how but I just knew she had passed away. A few seconds later my brother called me to say that I needed to return to the hospital. He didn’t want to say why but I knew. RIP mom I love and miss you. And thanks for your wonderful music taste. 😘

      androcles Sounds to me, after just now listening to this again, like a man who finds himself in a rut. He spots a lady, sitting there with a broken heart, so he says, come on, let's dance, take a chance at being the fire in each other's lives. It could happen, let's take a chance, even if all ends up being is dancing in the dark. Sounds like the average lonely hearts situation to me, for the twenty/thirty something singles scene. There's that big biological drive to find the one you will have a family with, you know, keep the species at a healthy number. Once you get older than that, you lose big drive to find a life mate, then it's more about finding quality people to fill your life with, friends and maybe a partner/soul mate.

    When I was a troop overseas in Korea in 1983-84 this song exploded like a thermonuclear bomb over everything! It was a sight to behold! Amazing thing is the song sounds as powerful now as it did decades ago!

    Look at that girl's eyes in 2:31 truly amazing. You can feel the excitement love romance. It was one of the most greatest times to be alive back in the '80s and'90s. And in the year 2024 it's become very Hollow and empty and the emptiness has taken over and you can see it.
