Bruce Springsteen and Rem during vote for change concert in Washington. One of the greatest duets ever. Watch Springsteen shaking his hips during the Elvis bit, hilarious.
@@davdmansell3130 hi there, as you probably Noticed by my 3 previous posts on the same subject, I bet you know that I am the Queen of redundancy when I get excited
Still get goose bumps thinking about that night! The Boss, R.E.M, Pearl Jam, the Dave Matthews Band, John Fogerty, Jackson Browne, Bonnie Raitt, James Taylor, John Mellencamp, Keb Mo, Babyface, and the Dixie Chicks. Once in a lifetime event!
I saw the St. Paul stop on this Vote for Change tour. Of course Man on the Moon with Springsteen backing up REM was amazing. We also got a guest performance from "a Canadian in the house," who happened to be Neil Young. It was the most incredible concert throughout!
@@Nancy94705 I did see Neil Young once. The walls in the building were dripping wet after the show because he rocked so hard. Most amazing show I ever been in.
Two of the only musicians I made the effort to see multiple times when they were in their prime. So thankful they were playing through my speakers when I was a young kid just starting to find my way in the world.
I remember in 1991 reading a small article in the SF Chronicle about the revival showing of the 1980 Andy Kaufman film "Heartbleeps", and being profoundly saddened that he had essentially been completely forgotten in the seven years since his death. This magnificent, timeless song came out a year later, and permanently rescued his memory. I imagine he would be completely blown away by the beautiful randomness of it all.
FANTASTIC! Bruce Springsteen and Michael Stipe are two of my absolute favorites. I love Michael Stipe's dancing in this vid.. haha you can tell he's having a great time
Wow - I already loved this song, but this version is incredible. There's a haunting quality about the verse that kind-of sounds like "I'm On Fire" to me. Totally fits Bruce. I wish there was a live album recording of this show out there somewhere to buy!
Shay Farren : I'm just laughin' cuz I played this for my kids when it came out. Life without music is incomprehensible to me. I don't want to go there.
I can't get enuff of this one...between Bruce, his talent, his awesome axe playing & just "being"...& Michael's antics...what an unlikely, but amazing pair...who'da thunk it ?!?
Wow,I couldn't have imagined that they could blend&play together so well..A real treat &good to see Michael stipe enjoying himself..and Bruce Springsteen doing what he has always done..Fantastic..
Maria if I was 25 years younger I'd kneel at your feet, with flowers And feel dumb but proud as well As life counts down the hours And the smile says I can face heĺl
Springsteen as a guitarist is highly underrated. See his duet with Guitar Virtuoso Tom Morello on "Ghost of Tom Joad" and Bruce holds his own on his solos until of course you get to the end and Morello goes absolutely nuts...but just wish these guys would actually care for America first candidates, not commies like Obama, Biden, Hildebeast etc.
OMG...BRUCE sings it with this unbelievable voice !!!!! just HIM...so unique..it touches people i guess..that's why people keep commenting on him... soft , powerful...all in one... he means it.. just what would it be BRUCE and ELVIS together...two different worlds..yet... damnit..just had an idea for a remix...
One of my favorite songs, with my favorite artist as a special guest, about three of my obsessions, and with heavy use of my favorite guitar chord. Just so fucking good in every way.
WOW.I have seen Bruce in concert three times, bit it's easy to see how invested he is in this concert: this isn't his song; this isn't even in his key. And Bruce is legendary for how much of himself he gives when he is on stage. But I have never quite seen Bruce play with this much intensity in his guitar playing as he does here. God I love this man. Michael is damn good, too. But Bruce, WOW.
I've been into music for about a hundred years, and that song just knocks me out every time I hear it. This just may be my favorite version, so I'm over the moon here. Thanks, Steff.

Oh my goodness, never seen this before.! Two of the greats singing together, just wonderful. Hell I just wish that I had been there, it must have been like two gods getting together!!
Almost nobody has the stage presence to live with Bruce on stage but Michael Stipe does, an amazing performance
Michael Stipe is a true beat poet and a great performer.
Love Bruce but… he can’t match this bloke
Michael and Bruce play to the audience like a preacher on a hot Sunday afternoon.... that's talent
Isn't it just!
@@davdmansell3130 hi there, as you probably Noticed by my 3 previous posts on the same subject, I bet you know that I am the Queen of redundancy when I get excited
Perfect
100%
man they are sure having fun 😂😅😮❤❤❤😂😢
bruce and michael both look so pumped to be playing this together. two american legends
Springsteen's guitar playing and singing really took this to another level- a lot more powerful, punchy, a little darker. Loved it
nobody can sing better than stipe. i love his voice
Totally unique
Absolutely
Debatable. But NO ON bounces like michael
Bono
no one bounces better either
I love how Bruce put his best out there but still respected this was Michael and the rest of REM's show. No ego.
Michael and REM payed respect playing and singing Bruce´s "Because the night" in the same concert. T´was amazing too.
Still get goose bumps thinking about that night! The Boss, R.E.M, Pearl Jam, the Dave Matthews Band, John Fogerty, Jackson Browne, Bonnie Raitt, James Taylor, John Mellencamp, Keb Mo, Babyface, and the Dixie Chicks. Once in a lifetime event!
Where was that at? That's crazy
So so soooooo envious obviously you had the best night ever xx
Michael and Bruce are two very different singers and persons. Its amazing that they made this work so well
No problem, Bruce is a gentleman
That is what talented artists do.
The combination I never knew I needed but should've been begging 4. 2 of my all time favs on 1 of my favorite songs.
I love the way Stipe has the crowd under control at the start , he almost "raises his game " because Bruce is in tow ...great stuff , I miss REM
I'd sell my soul to have been there and see these two music gods together. How could any arena hold such talent at the same time?
I saw the St. Paul stop on this Vote for Change tour. Of course Man on the Moon with Springsteen backing up REM was amazing. We also got a guest performance from "a Canadian in the house," who happened to be Neil Young. It was the most incredible concert throughout!
@@Nancy94705 I did see Neil Young once. The walls in the building were dripping wet after the show because he rocked so hard. Most amazing show I ever been in.
I was there, it was heaven.
I saw Bruce and REM do this in Cleveland. They blew the roof off of the place. Definitely the best song I ever saw performed live
@@RRPounder agree pretty special (in DC)
Bruce has a perfect voice for this song. I don't like when singers makes covers, but in this case, i WANT one..
This song fits Bruce like a glove, and its scary how well they combine.
What a front man Stipe is. You can't take your eyes off him. He lives the music - live Freddie.
I NEVER get tired of this.
There is a reason these guys (and Andy) are stars.
Two of the only musicians I made the effort to see multiple times when they were in their prime. So thankful they were playing through my speakers when I was a young kid just starting to find my way in the world.
Peter letting the Boss play lead is beyond badass
One thing about Springsteen that gets overlooked a lot: this guy is an extremely underrated lead guitar player
uh, no, he's not even that good.
Yeah. Sure. Underrated.
Agree
He is good. He knows exactly what’s needed.

Bruce can sing anything with anyone and it will sound great, but this is sublime.
What a brilliant performance...audience and musicians enjoyed equally...that's what music is all about...
Oh my god, Michael's voice is amazing.
Bruce Springsteen: So, uh, Peter . . . what should I play on this?
Peter Buck: Whatever the hell you want to, man!
Just a beautiful, heartfelt performance. Brought tears to my eyes.
Bruce can play anything...one of the most underrated guitarists of all time as well as a songwriting legend
i noticed that every song that bruce sings make it his own...one of the best performers of the last 40 years...

This is incredible. Great song, nice contribution from Bruce
This version is awesome. I listen to it over and over again. I wish I could have seen it live. Great performance!!!!
Two supreme musical masters at work.
Michael and Bruce Together.... Simply Fantastic!
I favorited this one months ago, and I still come back and watch it regularly. What an oddball and yet perfect combination of talent.
Michael really brings the energy even when he's not singing.
God my two most favorite singer/band playing my most favorite song. I'm dying this is great.
Yea I know,we are blessed
-Sofieann B.
Stipe has a great, gifted voice. He knows the art of singing. Exceptional lyricist too.

This song is the literal representation of my childhood as I remember my dad playing it to me as a 3 year old, so much love for this song
Shay Farren : I'm just laughin' cuz I played this for my kids when it came out.
Life without music is incomprehensible to me. I don't want to go there.
Your dad is a great dad, there can not be a good parenting if dads don´t teach their children well and your dad sure he did.
Love REM. Love the Boss. This is spectacular 😁💖💥❤️😃
First time I've seen this. My respect for Bruce went up by 1000%
Michael has such an amazing voice!!! I forgot how great this band was!!! Great performance!! How awesome Bruce on guitar!! ❤
I don't think there is anything greater in music than seeing the joy of the artists as they play it. Fantastic set, I love it! +1
WOW!!! Fantastic version.
Deux monstres sacrés sur scène indescriptible super ils se complètent avec talent 👍🥰😍❤️❤️❤️❤️
Bruce Springsteen shares the stage so graciously....lovely clip. Too bad that our elected officals are not as cool as these two men are.
I watch this at least once a month. Unreeeeeeeeeal
I watch this once in every 6 minutes:)
Me too
I can't get enuff of this one...between Bruce, his talent, his awesome axe playing & just "being"...& Michael's antics...what an unlikely, but amazing pair...who'da thunk it ?!?
Wow,I couldn't have imagined that they could blend&play together so well..A real treat &good to see Michael stipe enjoying himself..and Bruce Springsteen doing what he has always done..Fantastic..
Bruce with that Buck/Springsteen mash up solo was genius on this. And his voice was just so complimentary with Michael and Mike.
2 of the best for the price of none..WOW
magic to see a great artist enjoying rocking to another great artists music....xcellent..
love you Michael Stipe, love you Bruce! wow..
Maria if I was 25 years younger
I'd kneel at your feet, with flowers
And feel dumb but proud as well
As life counts down the hours
And the smile says I can face heĺl
I agree one of the best duets ever. SO amazing!!!!
What versatility! Taking a basically cerebral song and changing it into a visceral rocker!
Saw this in 2004 in Detroit at the JLA. Still The Best Set Ever. Bonus with the Chicks and Fogerty showing up to sing Mary's Place as a finale
Goddamn that was great.
All of those solos by Bruce where absolutely stunning, best sound I have ever gotten the chance to hear & feel.
Springsteen as a guitarist is highly underrated. See his duet with Guitar Virtuoso Tom Morello on "Ghost of Tom Joad" and Bruce holds his own on his solos until of course you get to the end and Morello goes absolutely nuts...but just wish these guys would actually care for America first candidates, not commies like Obama, Biden, Hildebeast etc.
"Mott the Hoople" - now that's a blast from the past.
So's Whist.
OMG...BRUCE sings it with this unbelievable voice !!!!! just HIM...so unique..it touches people i guess..that's why people keep commenting on him... soft , powerful...all in one... he means it.. just what would it be BRUCE and ELVIS together...two different worlds..yet... damnit..just had an idea for a remix...

You could never bore of watching this - unbelievable.

God I love this man.
Michael is damn good, too.
But Bruce,
WOW.
I saw Bruce in 1980 and REM in 1985.
Damn, I keep coming back to this. How I would have loved to have been there.
two of the best artists of the last century together. classic
I've been into music for about a hundred years, and that song just knocks me out every time I hear it.
This just may be my favorite version, so I'm over the moon here.
Thanks, Steff.
I would have paid serious money to see this show.....REM and Springsteen...2 of the greatest of all time.
What an amazing combination! Never would have guessed it'd be this good. Plus Mike Mills' backing vocals are incredible.

Saw this in Orlando. How can you not love both Springsteen & Stipe?????
Probably the best performance REM has ever given. I like this better then even their induction to the Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Fame show.
How did we survive without Internet? Fantastic duet! Never even heard of it being done!
Michael Stipe plays with great joy.
I really love the way he does that Elvis the pelvis move.
Are we having fun?
yep
Stipe is incredible ! What a talent !
This is one of the best performances
Wow.......Absolutely incredible.
