This song reflects the “spirit of Springsteen” in its truest form. You can visualize a young man sitting on the edge of his single bed with a guitar.The window is open, and it’s in the middle of the night in Freehold. The screen less window is open, and a slight breeze rustles the curtains, a storm is approaching. As his fingers find the chords, he pauses from time to time to write the lyrics in well-worn a spiral notebook. Shirtless he looks at the ceiling waiting for the magic his dreams bring
Working late to avoid going home to a failing marriage. Decide to listen some music. "In the end it was something more I guess That tore us apart and made us weep" Hits like a goddamn train.
Just look at his face when performing this masterpiece...this man's glorious music got under my skin and hooked me way back in 1982 my last year at school in Edinburgh, Scotland. Today, some 30 years later I am still as speechless at this man's talent as I ever was. His music has been the soundtrack of my life, and touched me like no others has.
Same for me, in Milan Italy, and for millions of people out there from all different parts of the world, that have got their lives changed by this incredible artist.
I love this song…with all the madness in my soul. I was at this show. 65K people silent, listening, feeling, crying. Minutes later, dancing, singing, laughing, rejoicing. Spirituality, humanity, love.💕❤️💕❤️💕❤️
This song along with "Something in the Night" from Darkness are the two best songs he ever wrote that explore the unbelievable pain that human beings can endure in pursuit of love and happiness. I am 48 yo now and I swear both these songs still translate today to loves lost now as they did when I was 16 and thought Id surely not survive whatever latest heartbreak I was confronting. I agree though, the album version of this can never be matched, maybe the most haunting song he ever recorded.
We are the same age. You posted this 12 yrs ago, and I’d as relevant today as it was then…as it was when we were 16. I hope life.. and love, are treating you well. To Bruce 🥂
I’ve not been a true fan, but I respect the music and performances of Bruce. His autobiography was a great read also. I heard this song last night while watching Cop Land, perfect song for the scene. Saw this performance now and it’s an absolute gem.
Bruce is the only rockstar with the balls who can perform un incredibly sad song and some power rock and roll song in the same concert with everyone enjoying it. A sectacle of a performer. Grazie Bruce!
Do yourself a favor...listen to this song while you're driving down a highway late at night. It'll give you chills. What a great song. What a great musician.
I discovered this song in that movie in 1997. I was two when the record came out so.... It's also how i became a Boss fan. It's still my favorite song of his i think. And this performance.....
Best listened too in the early hours before dawn on a hot summers night with a cool breeze blowing back the curtains. That’s not the silvery moon casting shadows across the floor but the fond memories of a love lost when you were “Young and bold.”
This always has and always will be one of my favorite songs of all time. I heard the song in Copland and I was a Spingsteen FREAK within the space of a month. This tune is simply. I prayed with everything I had that he would play it when I saw him but I new it would never happen. To hear this one live you have to be very lucky. Peace.
I get chills listening to Bruce's deep, haunting songs like this one. He has so many. I wish he'd play more songs like this in his shows and less of his "party"songs..not that I don't enjoy the latter though.
2am drive back to Brooklyn after work. It was beautiful every single time. Always on the Jersey side of the tunnel- every night. It was visceral and it still is... Thank you Jersey you bastard I love you
It was the last time he would play on this song in concert with the ESB. Next time the band performed Stolen Car was 2009, after which Danny had passed.
Just heard this on watching Copland !! Watched it many times before and never picked this up .. absolutely blew me away listening to the full version .. classic
This is how i got into this song AND Bruce a bit over 20 years ago. I'd never really given him much a listen until then, i was in my mid 20s. Been in love with this song ever since. And bruce's music overall.
He has never been involved in a scandal, donates his time and talent to good causes, has never sold out and works his fingers to the bone. Bruce is what a true Hero is. Thank you God for sharing him with us.
Mind-blowing that a beautiful, haunting, deep story can be conveyed with all the associated raw deep emotions in less 10 minutes...and you feel as if you are there. Humans can be amazingly clever...when they want to be! This man is truly gifted!
I heard this song for the first time today, on my drive to work. My husband is leaving to return to his homeland on another Continent, and my heart is broken. This song was spot on with my sadness, so I sent it to him. A beautiful sad song for a beautiful sad ending.
Clarence sax will always be the story, but his hand percussion was always a key ingredient to their live performances. Even something as simple as a tambourine.
Another example of ying/yang. Because Bruce may have had some personal experiences of pain and lessons it is the reason he is able to put together such soulful songs that touch us personally. He was given that gift of drawing upon personal experiences and creating masterpiece after masterpiece. The amazing thing is that he is able to expand on those emotions during his live performances. Brings u right into the experience and leave you emotional moved. A lot of people are not on that same plane but there a lot of us that are.....for me it works and I cant get enough of it. A true artist of his time. Thanks Bruce. You are truly "The Boss"
Couldn't of said it any better. I always feel sorry for the people who don't get to hear a song like this just because they think Bruce is just that guy who did Born in the USA. I usually make them listen to Nebraska or The River to try and show them the poetic range that Bruce has.
Yes, that is correct. I avoided Bruce for a very long time because of that stigma. Having said that, Born IS a great album now that I have given it a chance. Nebraska is the one that brought me fully into the fold though. So bleak and perfect.
Damn his vocals are just so off the normal that no one can sing like Bruce. Most of his iconic songs sound identical due to the way he sings his lyrics in order to give the mood of the lyrics their unique style. Bruce's mid 80's vocals were in my opinion his best period of singing.
" The soundtrack of my life" Top, ich hätte es nicht besser sagen können. Meine Frau kann nicht verstehen, wie ich mir so etwas, nach so vielen Jahren noch anhören kann. Aber das geht soooooooooooo unter die Haut es ist immer wieder unglaublich. "Long live the BOSS" from Germany
There are no words to adequately describe the genius of my hero but let me try anyway, one Bruce song would be a career for any other songwriter so you may like other performers , as i do, but there is and always will be only one Bruce Springsteen and we should give thanks for his commitment to great and meaningful music. Oh and before I go thank you for this wonderful post.
Absolutely correct........your point? If it's that Bruce isn't a great guitar player.....you win. Actually Bruce isn't a great singer either. But what he is a brilliant and creative artist that writes engaging lyrics that touch real people. He leaves it all out there when he plays live. If this song doesn't get to you then you don't get Bruce.......
When i was a kid my dad always said that Bruce before he became a singer he stole cars...I don't know if it's true, but I did some research but I never found anything. I haven't spoken to my father in four years because of his alcohol problems, but if I spoke to him again, I would ask him how he knew Bruce was stealing cars. Certain things stay in our heads and we never managed to get rid of them, my father was a musician, an excellent guitarist and a listener of good music with vast musical knowledge, I always grew up listening to stories of bands and singers, and whenever I hear Bruce Springsteen I remember this history.
i always feel like i am been transported to the great state of new jersey when listening to bruce, finally my dream came true last year, got to visit new jersey and nyc, now i know why these great places are so celebrated in song, why americans sing about there great country so much, love yanks and america!
"she asked if I remembered the letters i wrote when our love was young and bold... she said well last night she read those letter and they made her feel 100 years old..."
The show "Cold Case" "Eigth years later" (S03, E11) tells the story of this song. Whole episode is only Springsteen- soundtrack. Check it out, it is beautiful!
I used to listen to this song every night In fact the whole river album But this song I used to play it on my cassette player lol Fall asleep listening to it Helped the break up I guess Thanks Bruce x
@lp4141 :) I am so grateful to be alive during the time of Bruce! Seen him live for the first time in 1978 and 26 times since! I will never stop going to his shows as long as he keeps coming.... The man is a musical, lyrical, storytelling Genious!!!!!
A song as deep and simple as this does not need multiple chords to enhance it...it would take away from the beauty and meaning. Bruce's lyrics, feeling and his live performances make him what he is. He plays well enough to be in RS top 100) rarely witnessed in shows as he has Nils and Stevie to do the "work" as he crowd surfs, goes into the audience, etc...burns an estimated 2,000 calories in 3.5 hr...I could care less how many chords he plays. Bruce Springsteen isn't a noun...it is a VERB.
Bruce at the absolute height of his powers. Amazing, powerhouse imagery and that incredible voice. I have listened to Springsteen on and off for about 20 years now and he is still a songwriter of enormous power.
I had a beer few minutes ago after a long hard working week. I put a piece of wood on my fire place while I was looking for a moment full of meaning and joy in Boss songs here in my sittin room. I met your message. All the best Novacoma. Cris
He only played this a handful of times on the BIUSA tour; I believe this is the only performance of the tune from 1985 as well. It’s played in 84 in the Oakland Coliseum and Tempe as well. So, this was a sweet surprise all those nights ago 🎸🎷
this song takes me away as it has done for many many years i may be gettin older now but when i want to go back to my innocence this and anything by bruce takes me back and im a child again...thanks bruce
Yep. This song is a constant reminder to me hofsar i have to go as a songwriter. The day i can take two chords and write such a powerful song i'll know i've made it. Probably never will happen of course. here he's playing them arpeggioed though,on the record its just strummed.
i had the exact same observation 13 years ago about this song. I covered it and was like..fuck....two goddam chords. fuck....what am i doing with my life
This song. I love it ... the passion, the pain, the pure honesty. I hate it ... forces reality upon you and makes you face your mistakes. The mistakes of you make can haunt you forever.
This takes me back what a great song, to all you youngsters get out and enjoy yourself every day for sure time moves so fast all of a sudden you are 50 and times like these are history.
Stolen car ,greatness at such a young age! I’m driving a stolen car through the pitch black night! And I keep telling myself everything gonna be alright!
yes. I never say "YES" to any other musician, just through theirmusic and words as much as I do with Springsteen. The pain, the glory, sadness, the happiness. I only wish I could express myself as well.
Whoever it was that posted this video of "Stolen Car", thank you! I'd never seen this song performed live, and it's one of my personal favorites from that time.
You know what's funny? I really kind of like some of his stuff, but it was just kind of on the outside of what I was getting into all through the early seventies and right into the 80s. But when I dig deep, this guy really really has some Talent. It might not be that he sings like Roger Daltery or something. Please guitar like Richie Blackmore . - But there's some Talent here and I think you know what I'm getting at. The guy just has a feel and a vibe. He comes from a place where a lot of us have never wanted to be, and wish we could get out of, and we listen and maybe this kind of a song helps you deal with it. My Hometown comes on my Bluetooth sometimes at work, and I get a little tear going. I have to stop work and just I fade back into the days of being a seven-year-old and a 12-year-old right up through teenager in my hometown where I ran the streets and ruled the neighborhood with my friends. But, like everything else we get older and we leave and the old places just fall apart and people are leaving by the thousands

How good is this? I know everyone has different tastes in music but if you don't like this then you have no soul!
Soo good! I am so lucky to
Have seen him do this song live
❤it. Copland OST, a great pair for Syl. If I listen to the songs today… like WAP etc I’m like what about beautiful
Music at all???
I’ve not been a true fan, but I respect the music and performances of Bruce. His autobiography was a great read also. I heard this song last night while watching Cop Land, perfect song for the scene. Saw this performance now and it’s an absolute gem.
@@GT-bz9nc Copland is such a great film! You are right about the song Stolen Car being perfect for the scene. Bruce has so many masterpieces!
@@tommymorgan73 been spending some time in his catalog - impressive.
Of all his masterful songs, THIS is my favorite.
It's so hard to choose, but this one is super high on my list.
The real American troubadour I think.
man, me too...Its perfect. Haunting and beautiful. An absolute masterpiece. Gives me goosebumps every time i hear it
@@mikeking8206 well u read my mind...exactly that! What he said!

Cop Land brought me here
Dom R me too
Crying...yep. That scene tore me up. I like your underbite.
Yes and now it's too late
Yet another Springsteen masterpiece
Best listened too in the early hours before dawn on a hot summers night with a cool breeze blowing back the curtains. That’s not the silvery moon casting shadows across the floor but the fond memories of a love lost when you were “Young and bold.”
I loved how this was in Copland. Brilliant song!
She said last night she read those letters.....they made her feel one hundred years old......best line of the song
Agreed. One of the great lines ever written for a song.
i get chills......and tears. We all get to this point when we know....oh how we know how it feels.
Deneised so painful
Cop Land film starring Sylvester Stallone brought me here.
Freddys song.
Like wise see it last night
Me too
Me too

Thank you Jersey you bastard I love you
At the end, the late great Danny Federici gives a short master's class on how to play the Hammond B3
It was the last time he would play on this song in concert with the ESB. Next time the band performed Stolen Car was 2009, after which Danny had passed.

Simply perfect ❤️ " in this darkness I will disappear..." OMG the keyboard...
This was the last time Danny Federici would perform this song live with the ESB.

When I can’t sleep at night, I always play this song!
A true masterpiece
+Boss fan the funny part is that it's the 14th best song on the album
+Matt A Actually it's the essence of the album.
+Matt Nah. Top 3
Top 5 on The River
Incredible song! The best version is on his "Tracks" box set... The older you get, the more this song sings to you!
One of the greatest songwriters of our era.

This is beautiful, the lyrics make me cry.
Watching COPLAND (great movie btw)... and I just needed more Bruce... He's amazingly soulful.
I can't listen to this song without getting goosebumps. Absolutely brilliant!
my uncle told me this was his favorite song... 1 week later he was doing the things said in this song
As usual, the best union of lyrics and music! I miss Danny and Clarence.
Love this song....and those arms🥰 fell in love watching Copland many years ago.
please-never delete this video. you would cut out a piece of my heart!
My heart 💔 too
Dieser Song geht mir so sehr ins Herz, oh mein Gott, wie schön...... 🤫😚😌💝🍀👏
I love love love this song. I'm seeing him twice later this month.
underated song buried on the river,nobody does acoustic better than bruce.
Damn his vocals are just so off the normal that no one can sing like Bruce. Most of his iconic songs sound identical due to the way he sings his lyrics in order to give the mood of the lyrics their unique style. Bruce's mid 80's vocals were in my opinion his best period of singing.
Beautiful, raw and instinctive.....it just gets lost when recorded in the studio
Springsteen legend. Love 😍 that song
Amazing version from one of my favorite albums. Sparse, ringing, perfect.

“I live in fear that into this darkness l will disappear.” Such a good description of depression, no wonder that l love this song.❤❤❤❤❤
One of the best songs ever written.....THANK YOU!
I agree this song on cop land was great but also sad that he never got the girl.
If he had...it would be só clichê. The movie was good because Stallone was not the cop who gets unharmed and gets the girl
so powerful.
the imagery is depressing and up lifting at the same time.
One of the masters.
Absolutely correct........your point? If it's that Bruce isn't a great guitar player.....you win. Actually Bruce isn't a great singer either. But what he is a brilliant and creative artist that writes engaging lyrics that touch real people. He leaves it all out there when he plays live.

highly underrated song and not done much live till lately - Bruce writes such beatiful songs - he just keeps going - love this thanks for posting it
Its great to see Danny and The Big Man again....

The mistakes of you make can haunt you forever.
Great song Bruuuuuce.... one of my faves for sure!!!
Brilliant song. It's not just abbey relationships. It's about growing old.
What a beautiful, meaningful song.
Sung this at karaoke. I was pretty drunk. Rumors were I killed it. Still waiting to see the cell phone footage. Long live the Boss!
My favourite song off the River. Tears me apart..
This takes me back what a great song, to all you youngsters get out and enjoy yourself every day for sure time moves so fast all of a sudden you are 50 and times like these are history.
Absolutely no one!
He is truly the best, his lyrics are totally amazing and his music amazing.
What a beautiful and awesome song when she read does letters it made her 100 yrs old!!
Stolen car ,greatness at such a young age! I’m driving a stolen car through the pitch black night! And I keep telling myself everything gonna be alright!
yes. I never say "YES" to any other musician, just through theirmusic and words as much as I do with Springsteen. The pain, the glory, sadness, the happiness. I only wish I could express myself as well.
Bruce is so versatile,there is no one else like him(obviously)
this always takes me away and back - Thanks Bruce for keeping on doing it and thanks for the post
thank's 4 the song
Beautiful song.....Wonderful sad words. A Masterpiece!!
I was at this show, thank you so much for posting this. What a beautiful, emotive song but there are sooo many. Seeing Clarence made me sad.
I always come back to this...its like an old friend
Whoever it was that posted this video of "Stolen Car", thank you! I'd never seen this song performed live, and it's one of my personal favorites from that time.
