I'm a French teacher. I teach English and still make my students listen to him. When I started they knew him, now many haven't even heard "Born in the USA". But I won't stop making them study this one. And when they can't remember his name, I tell them: just call him"The Boss". This is my crusade. And to answer some comments, Springsteen isn't 70, he is timeless !
9 years ago you shook my hand before the premiere of the documentary "The Promise" here in Rome. I was there with an old friend of mine (my own Bobby Jean). Every day I can still feel your handshake and it gives me such great joy and energy, especially when I play guitar. I love you Bruce. Your words have changed my life. Hope to see you next year in concert!
Saw him in Barcelona this year, he may have aged, but him and the E Street Band nailed it as always.. it had been best part of 20 years since I last saw him in concert
He was on the Graham Norton Show a week and a half ago, along with Robert De Niro, Sienna Miller, Paul Rudd and James Blunt, and I think he was on Stephen Colbert's show about three years ago.
I found the film to be a thing of beauty. An American icon admitting his flaws, paying homage to the Southwest and showing his deep love for his wife. So glad I viewed it at a big screen theater with a good sound system. Such an intimate concert setting at his NJ barn, contrasted with expansive shots of the West. Bruce is not preaching at all; maybe teaching - those who care to listen - something based on his experiences of heartbreak and discovery. I left Western Stars singing to myself and feeling more inspired and hopeful. How many 70 year olds do you know who can continue to surprise us with such creativity? Long life, Bruce Springsteen. Thank you for sharing the ride.
I was blessed to be at Bruce's Western Stars presentation in London last year. Surrounded by "suits" I wanted to stand, shout and do the Bruuuuuce call. Suits sitting next said they noticed I knew all the words of every Western Stars songs. I replied only an idiot wouldn't. My heart nearly burst seeing him come on stage for Q & A. Wanted to jump from balcony and hug him to say thanks for all of his soul he gives us. Bruce (Boss) thank you for giving us "a little human Touch". Right back at you, always. You being here for me/us gives hope in this weird pandemic world. Xx
I just Love people Like Bruce Springsteen hes musikk is inn my soul for from i was young and for allways being GLORY days born inn usa just Loove it all!!jepp Bruce is an icon Love huggs from Norwegian mom 71 jepp
My best friend and I always have an argument about who first heard him. My friend and I love music. He got married and moved to Omaha Nebraska where he was in a band with another good friend. It didn't work out. Another good friend and I want to Omaha to move him back. He had big Montie Carlo and our friend had a 77 Trans am. Everything they owned was in those cars. My friend and I went to see Bruce in Birmingham in 82. We were hooked. My friend now has A form of ALS. He's in a wheelchair. If he came close to Alabama I would take. Before he dies he wanted to see him again. But It never will happen because of the price. Thank you Bruce for the joy u bring to others ❤
I was in a bar in the north east years ago, outkast was playing on the sound system, the dance floor was ful,l everyone was dancing. Bruce came on the system and the entire crowd started singing at the top of their lungs. Awesome memory.
I was raised in Monmouth County, NJ in the 60's and 70's. In the late 60's we would sneak into the Wonder Bar and Stone Pony in Asbury Park without being carded and watch Bruce play. He would come off of the stage and sit with us between sets and take a swig of our beer while we talked. We would also go to the Upstage, also in Asbury Park, but they didn't serve liquor so there was no problem getting in. I remember walking out onto the dark streets of the town after the show and not be able to hear for a half an hour, the music was so loud. Today I have constant ringing in my ears due to that time in my life. It is a reminder of Bruce's start in Asbury Park. He is till the BOSS!
Bobby D AND Marty courted him for a movie during BtR Tour AND the whole DeNiro U talkin to me thing DeNiro admits he took it from a Bruce show Bruce still does it wen he gets the crowd goin. I witnessed it myself. So yes MANY similarities both got there medals from Obama same time
Both are Dutch and Italian also (Springsteen with some Irish also). De Niro is half Italian, half Dutch. Springsteen is a Dutch-Spanish name but his mother is Italian (last name Zerilli) and his father was Dutch-Irish. There were direct relatives of Bruce Springsteen (1949-) in New York City and State in the mid-1600s when it was known as New Amsterdam. I guess it's not quite accurate then when he says in interviews that his relatives got off the boat from Europe just before World War I or so - only the Italian side did that - the other side goes back almost 400 years now, to Shakespearean times almost.
I've been listening to Bruce since I was a little girl back in the late 70's. I still think he's one of the best songwriters to ever live and the Western Stars documentary was an awesome idea in lieu of touring for the album: 🌟🌟🌟🌟
@@AlanSmithee5150 How am I "a" troll exactly? All I'm doing is telling the truth about a person who does not behave in real life, as he does on TV. Unfortunately, he and his awful family were part of my life, bc of my knowing people in his employ. I will tell every disgusting detail I know to show what a fucktard he is.
B.S. admits he has had depression, and folks with that aren't as nice as NON depressed people. I KNOW cuz my family is rife with anxiety and depression, being SWED/GERM, and we aren't as nice and friendly as most. Used to fight like CATS and DOGS too.
My dad used to play records every night after dinner, The Who, Springsteen, Rolling Stones, beatles. And the songs I used to always listen to before bedtime was born to run and thunder road.
My Mum used to do that, play records; Sam Cooke, Elvis, Diana Ross and those other acts from Motown. A lot of those old time country acts from the 60s; Cash, Waylon, Robbins, Jones, Tom T Hall. I always remember her when I play those songs now.
MAN!! I love him SO MUCH!! Since 1978, our lives have paralleled. I can SO relate to his kids aren't impressed with him. For YEARS my daughter said, "MOM! Don't DANCE!", in my own kitchen! And she wouldn't listen to Bruce, because she knew he was Mom's music. Now, she's 22 & away at school & she recently said, "Mom, I want to go to New Orleans with YOU!" I can relate to him wanting his kids to know their cousins, Great Aunts & Uncles too! My extended family & I make SURE of that with all our kids!
I'm 52 now. I first started listening to him in around late '75 or early '76? Saw him live for the first time in 1980 at the L.A. Sports Arena, on Halloween night. Changed my life. So I've been a fan for almost 45 years. Lol. Doesn't seem that long. Lol.
I remember when the NYPD boycotted Springsteen and called him a "scumbag" for his song "Forty-one Shots" about the police killing of an unarmed African immigrant named Amadou Diallo. It was a thoughtful song, not anti-police in any way but the cops turned on him anyway. I learned so much about cops in those years. so much. Springsteen is an icon.
My last Bruce concert in Philly 2019 was 4 hours,40+ minutes long. I was exhausted and hoarse. The next day at work, I had no voice… met a women who had been to that same show. It was her 99th Bruce concert. She had a ticket for the next night… her 100 th concert!!!
Thank you for this interview. Mr Springsteen is not just a true patriotic American he stands for equality and justice for all. I still remember where I was when I heard my 1st Bruce song back in 1973 - "For You" from his first LP Greetings from Asbury Park - & I've been listening to his & the E street bands music ever since.
Sure John! Not for the working man any longer! He's out there to screw over his hard working fans and NOW cannot afford to see him live in concert. He just loves the fact that he can gouge fans with ticket prices in the thousands!!!
I first saw Bruce at a basement theater in a dorm at Villanova University in 73 . Before the first album came out . A friend of mine lived in the dorm and she invited me and another friend over after we had gone out for dinner.
The boss makes me happy when I’m sad, he lifts me up when I don’t need lifting, he’s as important in my life and many others as Shakespeare - Nelson, Ghandi - Churchill - Kennedy - ML - King - he’s up there with them all. All for writing a song or two 🙏
It is called your job. All he does is take care of his appearance. He uses fake powdered hair and make-up. He has designer, tailored clothes. He has a trainer for everything, a home gym, and he goes to a local gym so that he can have everyone drool over him. Literally rituals of blood and magic 😆
I have loved and adored Bruce for 43 years now.. He is the ultimate artist, the ultimate poet and the ultimate man.. He reminds me of who I am and who I aspire to be.. God bless you Bruce.. And thankyou. 💙🙏💙
@@AlanSmithee5150 you're following my comments calling me a troll, hilarious! Just bc I know the man and actually tell the truth about him doesn't make me a troll. Ask me more , I'm happy to share. Bc all this is an act. He only does anything philanthropic, if it's tax deductible.
Me and my dad love this- helped us bond☺️ Love his music- very wise lyrics that can be understood by any generation U fall in love with lonely- u end up that way🖤
I was watching something on TH-cam a couple years ago where he was with some other well-known musicians although can't remember who they were lol and they were already playing and then Bruce started playing and then it just became this amazing thing and one of the musicians said, "well now we know why you're the boss."
I flew with The Bruce Springsteen band from Hamburg to Berlin..1981....he is a real gentleman and class ..They even gave me a few tickets to hand out...outside the venue..and a nice hotel room.
I was at the show at West Chester University back in '72 when I was 14. My friend and I actually helped Cheech and Chong carry their luggage out the following day from the Treadway Inn to their van. They were very cool. Coincidentally it was the first show featuring the E Street Band, from what I've read. I remember they were really good!
Bruce Springsteen is an inspiration itself, how he live his relationship to his people surround him his mother and close family and friends , his music brought me to my darkest times in my lives and give motivation, in 1984 I heard first time Bruce Springsteen song I don’t understand one word but I know it would support me thanks so much
Yeah so humble and I can believe very shy and discreet when he's not on stage. I found out about it too late, but I would've loved to have attended the JC City Hall ceremony in January (I live one town over) when his son Sam got his firefighter's badge; proud parents Patti and Bruce were there. In my mind's eye, I'm walking up to them all, congratulating Sam, then telling Bruce that I've been a fan of his for 40 years and gushing about what his music has meant to me. 😆 In reality, I'm a lil shy myself amongst strangers, and I more likely would've respected that the moment was about Sam, and not a Bruce fan meet & greet. Still, it would've been cool to be a few feet from one of my musical idols and snapped a few pics/shot some video. I think one "Bruuuce" shout out and a wave back from him would've been more than good enough for me.
Sou brasileiro e gosto muito das músicas do Bruce,aqui no Brasil não se escuta ou vê falar dele,mas no TH-cam todos os dias escuto.Tenho 67 anos e admiro ele desde os meus 20 poucos anos.que Deus de saúde alegria pra ele e família.quando estou meio por baixo escuto ele até.....
Eu não o conhecia, vi ele na participação do clip usa África e achei a voz dele encrivel e vi o nome dele, procurei no yotub e mim apaixonei, não paro mais de ver
hola amigos hermanos de Brasil.soy.chilena y Bruce es mi artista favorito desde que Hera niña.y tengo55 años.ytampoco se hablaba nada de él el mi país yo vivo en Costa Rica .y de que el visitó Chile hace unos años y no estuve ahi😭
I saw him in 2016 at MetLife. Four hour show (4:01 to be exact) and the first 90 minutes was all stuff from his first two albums (NYC Serenade, Incident, Rosalita, Kitty's Back, Blinded, Spirit, Saint, etc....). BEST CONCERT EVER!!!
"It's a sad man my friend who's livin in his own skin and can't stand the company. Tonight this fools halfway to heaven and just a mile outta hell and I feel like I'm comin home" Bruuuuuce
Not American, Italian, Irish, never been to New Jersey, never owned a muscle car... but somehow I can relate to everything he has written. Love from the UK!!!
People forget the Dutch “Springsteen” is his last name also my ancestors surname. My Franco-Dutch ancestors lived in Brooklyn from 1653- late 1800’s. My surnames on my maternal line are Springsteen’s, Provost’s, Praa, Meserole (Yes the name of the street) in Greenpoint, Brooklyn. Also New Jersey and New York were part of New Netherlands 🇳🇱 in 1620-1664. So I’m sure Bruce will trace his family even deeper.
Bruce is such a loveable down to earth man , America's finest!!
GJ B Bruce Springsteen is Amazing!

With every interview I see of this man, I like him more. He’s so down to earth and level-headed, an American treasure.
I went to one of his concerts couple years ago cause my dad loves him and....it was intense. This old guy still got it. His energy was off the charts.
Saw him in Barcelona this year, he may have aged, but him and the E Street Band nailed it as always.. it had been best part of 20 years since I last saw him in concert
Wow, i cannot remember the last time Bruce was on a talk show. He is looking great

Love Bruce! I discovered him listening to his LP Darkness at the edge of town. From that time, he became one of my favorite singers! Boss forever!
Adore listening to Bruce tell stories... besides the music that's a reason why his concerts are so fun. Hes so boss...love he doesn't cross his legs.

Jimmy did a great job of letting Bruce speak uninterrupted. No fake laugh. Just genuine interest!
Jungleland is my favorite song.
Living Proof is a good stand-alone song.
Tunnel of Love best album to date.

In reality, I'm a lil shy myself amongst strangers, and I more likely would've respected that the moment was about Sam, and not a Bruce fan meet & greet.
Still, it would've been cool to be a few feet from one of my musical idols and snapped a few pics/shot some video. I think one "Bruuuce" shout out and a wave back from him would've been more than good enough for me.

Sunderland recently was my 26th Boss concert. He said he was with his people. Bruce is first and foremost a man of the people 🎸🎸🏴😎

Best regards from Germany. The Boss is the greatest. He is my hero
Seen him four times, my fav concert is w/ the seeger sessions
I saw him in 2016 at MetLife. Four hour show (4:01 to be exact) and the first 90 minutes was all stuff from his first two albums (NYC Serenade, Incident, Rosalita, Kitty's Back, Blinded, Spirit, Saint, etc....). BEST CONCERT EVER!!!
He's so nice
"It's a sad man my friend who's livin in his own skin and can't stand the company. Tonight this fools halfway to heaven and just a mile outta hell and I feel like I'm comin home" Bruuuuuce
Not American, Italian, Irish, never been to New Jersey, never owned a muscle car... but somehow I can relate to everything he has written. Love from the UK!!!
"And the poets down here don't write nothin' at all, they just stand back & let it all be!"
..." But they end up wounded.. And not even dead.. Tonight in JungleLand.." That song gives me chills.. 🎵🎶🎵
@@maggiethecat1538 Yeah, me too.
My favorite song...
@@paulsullivan1650 a Masterpiece!
@@maggiethecat1538 Absolutely! "Jungleland" & "Backstreets"
Two of the greatest songs EVER written...
@@paulsullivan1650 agreed! Missing The Big Man...
He looks so good for a guy in his 70's
He does but he did have a hair transplant back in 2005 or so and he has also had some minor plastic surgery procedures.
bruce is a legend!!! song live with Tom Morello Ghost of Tom Joad is great !!!
People forget the Dutch “Springsteen” is his last name also my ancestors surname. My Franco-Dutch ancestors lived in Brooklyn from 1653- late 1800’s. My surnames on my maternal line are Springsteen’s, Provost’s, Praa, Meserole (Yes the name of the street) in Greenpoint, Brooklyn. Also New Jersey and New York were part of New Netherlands 🇳🇱 in 1620-1664. So I’m sure Bruce will trace his family even deeper.
Excellent! 💯❤️
