The Boss (Springsteen) My First memory of a Bruce Springsteen song… Dad was test-driving a car and I happened to go along. Windows were down, as we rounded the on-ramp. It was a sunny day - the weather was not damp. “Hungry Heart,” on the radio…played. It was a Toyota Celica & that memory stayed. I bought “Born In The U.S.A.” - used to listen to it before work. Plopping in the cassette was always a definite perk! In my sophomore year of college, my roommate loved The Boss. I listened to a lot of Bruce though my G.P.A. took a loss. The Nebraska Album - “Atlantic City,” at the time, was #1. We faced many challenges, but Bruce brightened our sun. My Next roommate was also a Springsteen fan. The River Album played - many a popped beer in hand. One Summer, we were at a friend’s everyone from the herd. “Thunder Road” came on the radio everyone sang every word. “Roselita” is another favorite in my over-flowing cup. It was always there when I needed a pick-me-up. We were on the bridge in Atlantic City windows down…having fun. On the radio, “Born to Run.” Decades later… a friend gave me two books to read. Both about Bruce & I followed his lead. I am half- way through the first one now. I had no idea of his hardships - sometimes I shake my head, “Wow!” Bruce could’ve given up - at any time he could have quit. A life without his music - just think about that for a bit. He inspired me to continue my quest. Giving up on a dream is far from the best. Clarence Clemons - “The Big Man”... Bruce’s partner in crime. Each night on stage they cre8ed new rhyme. I awoke one morning his sax playing in my soul. R.I.P. Good Sir - your passing still takes a toll. “Jungle Land” is my all-time fave. In difficult times it helps me be brave. Thank you, Bruce, for keeping me above zero. To me, you are The Greatest American Hero.
I keep my hope up by attending law school. I have three young adult kids that cannot grow up in the world as it currently is. After the ex-president was elected, I applied to law school. I was a nurse and transitioned to the law. I turn 47 on Thursday and will graduate from law school in May. When things looked bleak, someone told me to find the thing I'm good at and do it to my best ability to help make change in the world. I was good at school, so I picked the law. Everyone is good at something, whether it's helping to build community outreach or helping their neighbor with yard work. Things can get better if we start helping each other to make things better.
Everyone here do yourself a favor and watch a 5 minute clip, "Bruce Springsteen: THIS LAND IS YOUR LAND" it's one of the best renditions of a beautiful and often misunderstood song; that performance and brief monologue before it is a testament that this man is the real deal, you'll get a glimpse of what Obama saw/sees in him.
One of the best poets in my lifetime right there! Fortunate that I saw him in concert. Grateful he is wise and optimistic in his old age. An American legend.
@Steve Freeman isn't it time to grow up son? Aren't you tired of always being laughed at? Playing the fool in life? Never being respected? Start making better decisions and stop letting a con man control your mind. It's time.
We’re lucky to have this guy. Legend. A true artist and an American icon who’s passionate about this country and his music. He’s been around forever and it’s true that not all his music is amazing; yet HE is amazing 👏
At 72 years of age I, also, have faith in the younger generation and have for a long time. They are our only hope for the future of our democracy and way of life.
Usually your heros let you down as you (and they) get older. Bruce, since I first became a fan in the 80s, has done exactly the opposite. He just keeps getting better and better. Legend.
Big fan of Bruce Springsteen's music he is a musical and guitar legend no doubt however now at age 72 he is getting too political now it was embarrassing hearing Bruce attacking the right as a firebrand leftist Bruce you are ruining your legacy with your politics stick to the music you weren't political in the 80s but why now?
@@jeannieglickson8583 you sound like a typical Stephen Colbert Biden liberal I voted for Trump in 2020 I'm a ex Democrat and you liberals like to judge everyone who doesn't agree with your crazy agenda
@@albertbareno6942 So you’re allowed to believe whatever you want, but Bruce is not allowed to speak up on political issues? That’s just crazy. And if you were really a fan of his, you would know that he has always been political. A “firebrand leftist Bruce”????? You gotta be kidding.
I couldn't agree more with your comment!! Bruce is a wonderful caring person & yrs more charitable than many people realize - he's involved with many philanthropic causes.
@@stephanbosch225Bruce is a smarter & more caring person than you....Why did you post a negative comment about someone you've never met? I've met Bruce & believe me he's a very caring human being.
Something terrible has happened to Bruce, he's been taken over by Obama the criminal. The sight of Springsteen lending his cred to Obama is just too much to take - YOUR supporters Bruce are no where near as RACIST (as Obama says) than Obama is. He is the real Racist and Black Supremacist. WAKE UP BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN.
Many years ago I was a roadie and I particularly remember Dee Snyder when he testified to a very hostile senate committee about his his fans and how they would grow up good people, then I hear Bruce tonight, why is it that rock stars have more faith in the young than politicians do. Anyway The Boss is still The Boss
Maybe it is because people are so stupid that they expect politicians who are purely there to profit from money from corporations to care about young people.
Wilfully forgetting that it was "We The People" who send them there to represent us and our interests in the first place; establishment politicians see themselves as a modern day Royal House of Nobles, whose positions (once inside the club) are owed to the special interests who they've now become whores to and hence, they've forgotten about us (the "US" in "USA" ie, We the People).
Well, he does see young people who are happy and hyped to hear him and be in his presence. Could he even get an honest interview with a young person? They would have the rose colored glasses on when they were near the Boss.
His mind is clear. His voice is still amazing. He still can write music that can touch your very soul. His children are all exceptional. He was once stuffed in a garbage can by a nun in the third grade because that's where she said he belonged. He's won every award there is and hangs with Ex presidents now. He never stopped believing in himself even with all the caustic comments from his father. I couldn't overcome them from my father. When your father calls you " stupid" you believe it.....Bruce is a beacon of decency and hope. To anyone who wants to listen.
No he is not That’s why he can’t understand why some people are voting for Trump But the truth is he survived in this world living in society, working for it to create his own world through his music and help millions of people to be attached with something that in the end is not theirs. Millions of people don’t even own their life. But at least we can all comfort ourselves with Bruce amazing musical career
He has many poignant songs about the working class life in America. The album, Nebraska, is a top 10 album all-time for me. I attended 2 performances: River Tour, and Born in the U.S.A tour. Love the guy! I'm not sure why people think he has the skills to 'advocate' for workers. (fuckin' V. I. Lenin?) He is a musical genius, and has created great art. The human tendency to blur celebrity with "goodness" or celebrity with "political wisdom" is equal measure of despair and danger.
Love Bruce Springsteen!💕 He will always be “The Boss”! Looking forward to reading his new book. Bruce Springsteen was my now deceased brother’s favorite singer. Whenever I listen to Bruce Springsteen’s songs, it brings back cherished memories of my brother. 🙏🏼💕🙏🏼
I love Bruce Springsteen music very much I just don't agree with his radical left politics Bruce should be grateful to America for his artistic financial success instead of talking bad about America Shame on you Bruce
@@megafauna8374 somebody says: the years go by for all except for Bruce. This is a stupid statement. I only answered: that’s not true, he looks like a grandpa. I have nothing against Bruce, but I have something against silly comments.
It was so good to have had an intelligent, well Educated, broad minded, humble President... And I'm sure that's exactly how the conversation went.... And I'm pretty sure Obama said - "Aaaaaa... Mr Boss.... " 🤣
Well I was born in the first half of the 60's, and I have to say, I have always liked Springsteen. So cool to see what he has been up to, and how awesome to get to talk spend time with Obama.
I absolutely loved the podcast with obama...I've listened to it several times. It's a very candid conversation, easy to listen to and still manages to keep you calm.
I have never been a huge fan of his music, but have appreciated his writing very much and it please me to affirm his perspective is unclouded and honest about reality.
Bruce!! Saw him in concert in Detroit in the late 80's! Phenomenal, 4 hours, non stop, singing!! When he ended the show I thought he had been on stage for like 2 hours. Could not believe it was 4 hours!!! We were on our feet dancing and singing the entire time! We all wanted MORE!! He's incredible!! And, we share the same birthday!!
His songs are all written about common people and their life experiences. For years, and probably still, he asks for food donations from concert goers to benefit the food bank of whatever town he's appearing in. I wonder how many people have been fed because of him?
Modern man is not the man who goes off to discover himself, his secrets, and his hidden truth; he is a man who tries to invest himself in something beneficial for the future.
money devalue over time, so it's a stupid idea to keep money in banks... investment is the best way forward as it grows over time and country economy activity increase
Interesting, most people don't understand the market moves and tend to be mislead in facts like this and always depend on Money in the Bank very bad idea
The rich sees an economic crisis as a garage sale also the rich stays rich by investing and diversifying their portfolio with stocks, Crypto currency and Forex trading which is the wisest thing every individual needs to do and it's real profiting.
Bruce did graduate from Freehold Regional high school but he was bared from the actual graduation ceremony because he refused to cut his hair. Instead he took a bus to NYC and hung out in Greenwich Village for the day. I read that when he showed up to his High School reunion about 20 years ago (at the urging of his wife) his classmates were shocked to learn that he had gone to school with them. In school he was nearly invisible and painfully shy (except when he was playing guitar in his band).
Bruce Springsteen. A nice down to earth man besides being such a iconic artist that he has been. Modesty is a rare commodity these days. Impressive personality.
Something terrible has happened to Bruce, he's been taken over by Obama the criminal. The sight of Springsteen lending his cred to Obama is just too much to take - YOUR supporters Bruce are no where near as RACIST (as Obama says) than Obama is. He is the real Racist and Black Supremacist. WAKE UP BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN.
@@sabejreid2072 Gross. Everything you said is just gross. "People" like you who refuse to acknowledge your own racism, violence, cruelty, entitlement, false and unwarranted superiority make me sick. The "good old days" when everyone knew their place and kept it so tyrants could do whatever they wanted whenever they wanted were not "the good old days" unless you were one of the tyrants. Bruce Springsteen is a class act. I am "sure" you know better than him about "the truth" or whatever. Read a book. Duh.
Successful people don't become victorious overnight. What most people see as a glance wealth, a great career purpose is the results of hard work and hustle over time. I pray that anyone reading this will be successful in life..
@Mary Anna NEVER LOSS?... I sincerely doubt when I see such things like 100% WIN strategy, Crypto trading is very technical, involves carefulness and great IQ... I wonder doing that with no losses or I will say only a professional trader/broker can do that..
72 years old? No way!! Bruce, your beyond cool, zen-like voice is one of a kind.....singing and otherwise. I'm so thankful you're being an advocate for our democracy. I'm disgusted with what I'm seeing in the country music industry, and the amount of them being Trumpsters (like Luke Bryan, who recently riled up his fans with a "F**k Joe Biden!" rant, during his current tour.) Trace Adkins, Larry Gatlin, John Rich, Charlie Daniels, and Kid Rock also openly support Trump. Rock has openly used his concerts to do the same, spewing his complete hatred for anyone living in blue states, all country singers who do not support Trump, and promoting his love and adoration for white supremacist groups like the KKK and Neo Nazis. While there are many country singers who do not, I am appalled by those who do, and use their stage performance as a way to rile up their fans with rants of racism, hatred, and violence. Bryan and Kid Rock are such a total disgrace, and think they have every right to use their celebrity status while performing on stage, to entice their fans into spreading sheer hatred, racism, anti democracy and violence... just like Trump.
@@equalityforall8418 No, thank you my brother. I could not agree more with every word you wrote. People, like yourself, have to keep promoting truth and give a shout out to the generation above us (Bruce) that are still fighting the good fight. Btw, I was offered tickets to see Bruce when I was 17 if I'd drive the 3 hours. He absolutely turned me into a fan that night. He was connected to the audience. There was a mutual exchange of energy. He was a poet, a tune smith, a showman and a good dude all at the same time. Still a class act. Much respect!
@@jackdripper3392 Not a male...lol...but thank you:) Bruce is very much a class act, and he's such an advocate for protecting democracy. So much talent....has such respect for his fans and this country....he's one in a million. Stay safe my friend!!
@@equalityforall8418 funny, don't know why I assumed you were a dude.... Anyway, sending good vibes to you sister! The Universe has sent you many blessings.
Thank you Bruce ,especially for your comments about Green ,Geots or however you spell, it Desantis and the former racist in chief ,and we all know who I mean .
Mr. Boss, I love it!! Hey we have to be optimistic with him, he's walked into a '10th Avenue Freeze Out' [with *so* many of us behind him], and look at that glorious outcome!! Listen to 'High Hopes' by him, I defy you not to cry and then form an optimistic outlook yourself....
Omg I’m so glad to hear that out loud. No, no, no, no and hell yo yo above names for President. I am optimistic this too shall end. Come on young people!!
'Be a fighting optimist'. Good advice in these dark days of rising reactionary violence and popular authoritarianism.

The Boss (Springsteen)
My First memory
of a Bruce Springsteen song…
Dad was test-driving a car
and I happened to go along.
Windows were down,
as we rounded the on-ramp.
It was a sunny day -
the weather was not damp.
“Hungry Heart,”
on the radio…played.
It was a Toyota Celica
& that memory stayed.
I bought “Born In The U.S.A.” -
used to listen to it before work.
Plopping in the cassette
was always a definite perk!
In my sophomore year of college,
my roommate loved The Boss.
I listened to a lot of Bruce
though my G.P.A. took a loss.
The Nebraska Album -
“Atlantic City,” at the time, was #1.
We faced many challenges,
but Bruce brightened our sun.
My Next roommate
was also a Springsteen fan.
The River Album played -
many a popped beer in hand.
One Summer, we were at a friend’s
everyone from the herd.
“Thunder Road” came on the radio
everyone sang every word.
“Roselita” is another favorite
in my over-flowing cup.
It was always there
when I needed a pick-me-up.
We were on the bridge in Atlantic City
windows down…having fun.
On the radio,
“Born to Run.”
Decades later…
a friend gave me two books to read.
Both about Bruce
& I followed his lead.
I am half- way through
the first one now.
I had no idea of his hardships -
sometimes I shake my head, “Wow!”
Bruce could’ve given up -
at any time he could have quit.
A life without his music -
just think about that for a bit.
He inspired me
to continue my quest.
Giving up on a dream
is far from the best.
Clarence Clemons - “The Big Man”...
Bruce’s partner in crime.
Each night on stage
they cre8ed new rhyme.
I awoke one morning
his sax playing in my soul.
R.I.P. Good Sir -
your passing still takes a toll.
“Jungle Land”
is my all-time fave.
In difficult times
it helps me be brave.
Thank you, Bruce,
for keeping me above zero.
To me, you are
The Greatest American Hero.
Nicely done.
Bruce was so humble. He is the best songwriter in history.
so humble he charges dynamic ticket prices while others starve

Pleasantly surprised. Would not have expected Mr. Springsteen to be so passionate about the affairs of the common people. Great to see.
His songs are all written about common people and their life experiences. For years, and probably still, he asks for food donations from concert goers to benefit the food bank of whatever town he's appearing in. I wonder how many people have been fed because of him?
My four year old grandson loves Bruce. He listens with headphones, sometimes he dances.
An American Legend! ♥️
Go Bruce go

The rich sees an economic crisis as a garage sale also the rich stays rich by investing and diversifying their portfolio with stocks, Crypto currency and Forex trading which is the wisest thing every individual needs to do and it's real profiting.
I wanted to invest more in crypto, but the fluctuations in crypto value discouraged me into dumping.
I really hope they do another podcast.
I loved it so much.
Bruce did graduate from Freehold Regional high school but he was bared from the actual graduation ceremony because he refused to cut his hair. Instead he took a bus to NYC and hung out in Greenwich Village for the day. I read that when he showed up to his High School reunion about 20 years ago (at the urging of his wife) his classmates were shocked to learn that he had gone to school with them. In school he was nearly invisible and painfully shy (except when he was playing guitar in his band).
As someone else put, Bruce is the artist of my lifetime……simple 💙
I don’t appreciate your reply - I am in UK, I have completely differing views to you ……and I’m double jabbed
My love and respect for this man just grew exponentially. the most intelligent are always the most humble. Thanks Boss:)
I wish that Barack Obama was still our President!!!🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
He is
Hahaha hahaha
You must be Al Kaida !
I support him too he is a hero 🇺🇸
Ga, is you crazy?
Yes he is Mr Boss and and yeah Freehold!!!
They look like brothers.!!! Bruce and Steve!!!
“A fighting optimist”....YES!!!!
Bless his bones. Some around the same age can see the arthritis. Keep on, keeping on, Bruce.
Bruce Springsteen. A nice down to earth man besides being such a iconic artist that he has been. Modesty is a rare commodity these days. Impressive personality.
A real PATRIOT!
@Steve Freeman TRUMP=Treasonous Republicans Under Master Putin.
Bruce, you’re a fantastic live performer too 😀. Fun fact, my 1st concert….Born in the USA tour!!!
These 2 men are national treasures. I have loved The Boss for many years, and my husband is Italian from The Jerz. : )
Something terrible has happened to Bruce, he's been taken over by Obama the criminal. The sight of Springsteen lending his cred to Obama is just too much to take - YOUR supporters Bruce are no where near as RACIST (as Obama says) than Obama is. He is the real Racist and Black Supremacist. WAKE UP BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN.
@@sabejreid2072 Gross. Everything you said is just gross. "People" like you who refuse to acknowledge your own racism, violence, cruelty, entitlement, false and unwarranted superiority make me sick. The "good old days" when everyone knew their place and kept it so tyrants could do whatever they wanted whenever they wanted were not "the good old days" unless you were one of the tyrants. Bruce Springsteen is a class act. I am "sure" you know better than him about "the truth" or whatever. Read a book. Duh.
Successful people don't become victorious overnight. What most people see as a glance wealth, a great career purpose is the results of hard work and hustle over time. I pray that anyone reading this will be successful in life..
Lots of people have become successful through the crypto market.
@Mary Anna NEVER LOSS?... I sincerely doubt when I see such things like 100% WIN strategy, Crypto trading is very technical, involves carefulness and great IQ... I wonder doing that with no losses or I will say only a professional trader/broker can do that..
I do all my investments with Chris Sain trading service, his services are top grade..
You can check him out on TH-cam.
I have been trading offshore, and I haven't been able to earn my first $5000. What strategy does he use and how can I reach him?
Bruce you are looking good!
Bruce Springsteen is a national treasure❤
Fight the good fight , keep democracy alive, working towards a better tomorrow🌏👣✌️🎶❤️🌱
Love him!
Bruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuce :)
Of course he is Mr Boss. I love Bruce Springsteen.
72 years old?
No way!!
Bruce, your beyond cool, zen-like voice is one of a kind.....singing and otherwise.
I'm so thankful you're being an advocate for our democracy.
I'm disgusted with what I'm seeing in the country music industry, and the amount of them being Trumpsters (like Luke Bryan, who recently riled up his fans with a "F**k Joe Biden!" rant, during his current tour.) Trace Adkins, Larry Gatlin, John Rich, Charlie Daniels, and Kid Rock also openly support Trump. Rock has openly used his concerts to do the same, spewing his complete hatred for anyone living in blue states, all country singers who do not support Trump, and promoting his love and adoration for white supremacist groups like the KKK and Neo Nazis. While there are many country singers who do not, I am appalled by those who do, and use their stage performance as a way to rile up their fans with rants of racism, hatred, and violence. Bryan and Kid Rock are such a total disgrace, and think they have every right to use their celebrity status while performing on stage, to entice their fans into spreading sheer hatred, racism, anti democracy and violence... just like Trump.
Very well said !
@@jackdripper3392
Thanks Jack :)
@@equalityforall8418 No, thank you my brother. I could not agree more with every word you wrote. People, like yourself, have to keep promoting truth and give a shout out to the generation above us (Bruce) that are still fighting the good fight. Btw, I was offered tickets to see Bruce when I was 17 if I'd drive the 3 hours. He absolutely turned me into a fan that night. He was connected to the audience. There was a mutual exchange of energy. He was a poet,
a tune smith, a showman and a good dude all at the same time.
Still a class act.
Much respect!
@@jackdripper3392
Not a male...lol...but thank you:)
Bruce is very much a class act, and he's such an advocate for protecting democracy. So much talent....has such respect for his fans and this country....he's one in a million. Stay safe my friend!!
@@equalityforall8418 funny, don't know why I assumed you were a dude....
Anyway, sending good vibes to you sister! The Universe has sent you many blessings.
Such a wise and wonderful human being. Pretty good musician, singer-songwriter too!
Thank you Bruce ,especially for your comments about Green ,Geots or however you spell, it Desantis and the former racist in chief ,and we all know who I mean .
I wonder if we’ll see Barack at the back bar in the Pony one of these days. Hope so!
Love The Boss and President Obama and Steven Colbert
@Bruce Springsteen hahaha
I wonder if Stephen told John Stewart that Bruce Springsteen was going to be in the building.
"Ex Fearless Leader"...yay.....Rocky and Bullwinkle!
He is SO RIGHT!! The younger generation will take our Country back!
It's adorable how shy and uncomfortable he looks
Just realized he's the long lost brother of Michael 'Yondu' Rooker 😁
I was thinking that he was looking a little like DeNiro.
52 times live over 26 years. A retirement account. Worth every penny.
Awesome!
@Bruce Springsteen OMG!! BTW, you and I share the same birthday, Sept 23!!
Everything Springsteen says makes sense.
I remember the No Nukes concert documentary when Bonnie Raitt thought the crowd was booing but were really screaming, “BRUCE!”.
I love Bruce and Bonnie.
I loved Stephen saying we have a moral commandment to hope: "I say to you do not worry..."matthew 6:25
Stephen: how does one remain optimistic?
The Boss: Have a kid
Mr. Boss, I love it!! Hey we have to be optimistic with him, he's walked into a '10th Avenue Freeze Out' [with *so* many of us behind him], and look at that glorious outcome!! Listen to 'High Hopes' by him, I defy you not to cry and then form an optimistic outlook yourself....
"Just a high school graduate who plays the guitar." Exactly how I remember him when he played The Garage on LBI.
He should be very humbled by that applause. I love him………and his wife Patty, who STILL I has the best album I ever had.
Watch the movie Springsteen and me. Great show.
Finally, that’s how a legit rockstar walks onstage...nonchalantly and with nothing to prove
"Wrong Number," Jon, that's a song.
I like Stephen, enough said.
There is the reason he is called The Boss.
Omg I’m so glad to hear that out loud. No, no, no, no and hell yo yo above names for President. I am optimistic this too shall end. Come on young people!!
He's such a talented, deep- thinking artist... and still hot af! Time has been kind to the Boss.🎵🔥
