#BruceSpringsteen #EStreetBand #RacingintheStreet #LIVE #OfficialVideo - เพลง
If Bruce and the band walked on stage, played this for 3.5 hours and walked off I wouldn't complain.
Saw this one live yesterday in Barcelona. One of the most magical moments in my life. Thank you, Bruce and E Street Band.
"She sits on the porch of her daddy's house and all her pretty dreams are torn. She stares off alone into the night with the eyes of one who hates for just being born.".......Gets me every time.
that is what you call a fucking spiritual moment in time
She stares off alone into the night
With the eyes of one who hates for just being born
these lyrics leave me speechless
Possibly the greatest lyrics ever written…..like so many others by the poet of a generation…
You have good taste
Wow what a line
I believe this is Bruce’s true masterpiece. All the themes and promise of earlier Bruce is here, yet it’s now tempered by the reality of how time changes everything. Yet still, they’re is still hope and memories and ultimately redemption for you sins…
This is earlier Bruce. He changed a word or two and reworked the music. Search the original version and you'll definitely know this is the best version.
@@yetisquatch5132 Hard for me to say that there is one best version of Racing... This certainly is one of the best for me.
I just wish this song would never end.
Amén.
Classic is a Classic
Thats true
It never does-majestic doesnt do it jusstice lol timothy
The same!
Max is a machine
Max Weinberg delivers the backbeat like no other. This is the E Street Band at its very best.
Surely, one of the best codas in the rock music ever.
The best version is the 1978 live version with Clarence on the sax and Bruce on the harmonica
@@pierretrio6681i agree, and would have always believed it, except Philly 2009 might have surpassed it….but it would be like arguing Bach vs Mozart….
@@pierretrio6681 Honestly, I like this one better. Just perfect! Roy's piano at the end just seems to go on forever.
Quite simply one of the best songs of all time. Awesome.
I’m out here in my garage working on my 57 Chevy pick up. 454 with an MB 35 five speed This song gives me inspiration Going for the gasser look. my 22-year-old daughter was murdered 11 years ago. I wish she was here to help me.
Listened to it since I'm 13. Lying in bed, not wanting to hear my parents arguing. Didn t unterstand the words, but I found comfort. 35 years later, still gives me chills, tears and hope. what a masterpiece
Here I sit drowning in the fear of the Covid 19 pandemic. Outside and on my TV screen images of protest, of violence, of peace, of hope, of a brave new generation play over and over. I lost my 33 year old son, David Silver, in 2007 and have been raising his then 3 year old orphan son ever since. I am 71 now and David's son, Aaron is almost 16. It's been years since I allowed myself to listen to these heart-wrenching songs Bruce tore from his soul. I am old enough now to actually KNOW I am mortal and my time will be coming. As much as I long to see David on the other side, I long even more to have every single second I may be granted by God to love and comfort my son's son, Aaron. Even though it is not in my power to decide when I will have to go, I can't keep the tears from filling my eyes whenever I look at Aaron, knowing I can't be here for him forever like he thinks I will be. There is only one Bruce and the emotion I know he tears from the depths of my soul actually scares me. That is why I stopped listening to these incomparable pieces of musical genius several years ago. I can't believe some of the comments on this thread are from a mere week ago. We all will pass on, like poor George Floyd, but even when Bruce's time comes, NOBODY and NOTHING will ever erase the sweet power of his genius.
Ronald you have done a great thing with your life. David would be so proud of everything you have done. The true definition of a man is how you raise a son and you have raised two. Gods speed x
Keep strong Ronald. And well done!
Hello. I was deeply touched by your post. Gos bless you and may He give you the strengt to fulfill your task.
Beautiful comment. Thank you sir, and don't stop racing in the street.
Well done and well said, I don't think the world will realise the genius Bruce is until he is gone. I have always said he is a modern day Shakespeare, his lyrics are awesome.
That outro could go on forever and id never get bored
One of Bruce’s greatest songs.
Roy's playing here can make the toughest man openly weep. Its that powerful
I do and it does thx
One of the greatest songs of all time
I knew this song But now I'm in tears. I would like these musicians to be my brothers.
This piece is a diamond
The mighty Max Weinberg. The Boss. Glory Be to God.
Stands with "Thunder Road" and "Darkness On the Edge of Town" as Springsteen's best songs. As beloved as he is Bruce will always have detractors because he has never shied away from writing about despair in a society that tends to deny it.
From freehold to asbury to seaside we grew up racing in the streets. It was the 70’s in Jersey. Now almost 70 we’re still racing in the streets, on i-4 and 75 in Florida. What a life!!!
The sum is definitely greater than all the parts, how brilliant were all those parts???
1973 This song takes me back to a Saturday night in a small town in the Midwest. My hometown. Hot and humid, after dark on the north side of town between the railroad tracks and the cemetery a mile north of town. John Haley with his 302 69 Camaro and Ronald Bakko and his 66 Chevelle SS396. They raced several times, the sound of those 2 cars in the distance... I listen to Bruce do this song and I'm right there again. Even met "the girl" that evening, Roxanne with her beautiful long red hair. True to the song, I drove that girl away. I was 17 then, 63 now, life has been good, Bruce's music just gets better with age!
"Some guys they just give up living and start dying little by little piece by piece" wow what a devastating line but the alternative is the thrill of an engine and feeling alive for those brief moments. Springsteen can paint a picture like few others. The highway is a supreme metaphor
Wreck on the Highway. Incredibly moving song.
@@sixstringsdown1ciao John!🙋😍😘😊🍀
But “some guys come home wash up and go racing in the street”. The song is about the guys who live life at the fullest.
@@sixstringsdown1 yep, 14 years after my wife died in a crash I still can't listen to that song; even Drive All Night is so emotional now.
1952 Vincent Black Lightning is in the same vein.....
Bruce and the E Street Band are like a musical genre all their own.
Never owned a 69 chevy, nor a camaro, but this is still the best song by Springsteen. The cars are kind of metaphors that help me connect to other things that are important to me. To me it tells "you will die one day, so do your best to live every day in your life"
So well said. To many years ago but. But this song at 18-19 was a pledge to one another it's not us. You know great families they have but never deny we are not that guy we thought we had to be.
A Springsteen song is like watching a movie. I would have loved to write and direct this one. I see a young Matt Damon and Ben affleck in this one. Love it.
The bass, the drums, the piano, the guitar , the sax and the Boss, that’s all folks, nothing else matter🎸🎸
the instrumental part of this version has been playing in my head for the last week. i hope it stays and becomes the soundtrack for what remains of my life. it's beyond good.
Okay, well that just DESTROYED ME ! And then to read one of the comments below, I'm bawling now, it's 2:00 am in the morning, saw these songs live several times in 78 and on later tours. I'm going to be 65 this year and man my youth is LONG GONE! Good night fellow E-Streeters! ❤️
I know how you feel Rob thanks for your comment
I need this like oxygen. It makes me live, it's life supporting. My life would be less without it. Thank you, thank you.
You said that perfectly. This song is some of the most beautiful melodies ever.
@@hoosierfan4life836 Boss is the most beautiful artist ever !!!
Shit you're not kidding ! Always cleanses me, from the bottom up !
Yes!!! This sound has carried me. Not so bad. But .hard times. Ihopeto dance in the Streets. .live ro the Boss fans ... zzz outahere
@@joannbryant1178 HAHA!
HOLY F"CK!
There's a reason this is my favorite Springsteen song.
I listen and listen and keep listening
For anyone who isn't a Springsteen fan I would encourage to listen again...any parent taking their kid to a concert thank you for keeping great music alive god bless
The last three minutes of this might be the best three minutes in the history of music
matthew rubock probably the best comment on TH-cam that mate 👍
Touches the Soul.
I am a 63yo female who grew up with Bruce. This song tears at me. I'm at a crossroad in my life and trying to find reasons to keep on keeping on. I feel lost and broken inside. The part where he speaks of some guys just give up living, and die a little by little, or something like that, it's not verbatim but tell me what does it mean at our age to keep racing in the streets? I'm looking for answers because I need a reason.
Hi Bridget. You are still here, you have a purpose to fulfill and a journey to complete. Learn a lesson everyday and teach those who want to learn, love those you want.
Don't give up. You have many more years of listening to the Boss. His music is the lifeblood of fans like us.
Get Springsteen's book it will help. Even BRUCE has dought...Faith is a good net for falling.
Wow, here I am 2 months later and am in awe of the replies I received. Thank u for your words and sweet sentiment. I am feeling better, I work as a Registered Nurse and for a long time, I couldn't go into work. I would freeze and turn around in the parking lot. I think I was burnt out having worked frontlines during COVID. I am seeing Bruce 3/16/23 in Philly with my BF from high school. A day before my birthday. I can honestly say I'm happy at times, a feeling that was so removed from me for so long. Thank u...if you are ever in SC hit me up. I'll buy you a drink and we can listen to Bruce. Xxxxooo
Hi bridget,
So nice to read you’ve gotten better. Its hard working on the frontlines in times like these. Hopefully you’ve found strength to keep racing in the street in your own way. ;)
Have an amazing time in march. Let us know how it was :). Ill wait for him in Italy and the netherlands !
Watching this for the 9047th time, it’s better than I remember.
I'm 60 years old and raising my 3 grandchildren. Two boys and a girl, my daughter and son in-law are gone and oh how I miss my little girl. I raised her on my own, from the time she was 6 months old. The Bosses music has helped me thru tough times.
Mark, God bless you for the hard job you took on, and may you find His peace for the pain you have endured.
God bless. Well done, Grandpa.
A beautiful comment Mark 💕💕
God bless you & so glad you have this music to hold you up!
I am so sorry for your loss!
The last 5 minutes of the song (5:00 - 9:41) is perhaps the greatest music I've ever heard. It's comforting to know that whenever I struggle in life, I can go back to this song and find courage again.
Then you will love this outro: th-cam.com/video/KzFkqwliuEU/w-d-xo.html
In total agreement, brilliant...
yes i like the keyboard
Joey colombi i feel exactly the same!
Couldn't of said better myself.
It hypnotizes me, it elevates me, it calms me down...it helps me !!!! . I finally found it. My medicine is called " Racing in the Street".
If there is anything better than this , Please let me know . Bruce goes from talking about automobiles to the wreckage of a relationship . The E Street Band go along for the ride .
Incident on 57th Street, live in Barcelona
Jungleland 1975 Hammersmith Odeon .
Only BRUCE 'THE BOSS' SPRINGSTEEN can make a song sound this good
This man is a genius...loved him my whole life...from his jersey shore roots to songs like this...simply amazing..there will never be anyone to replace him ever
Just simply one of the most beautiful songs ever written.
And this is probably the most struggling performance.
Matt Smith this is horrible version
M Goldey and how is that?
Yossarian sounds like he’s singing it while gargling barbed wire
M Goldey that’s his normal voice
This song reminds me of my own racing in the streets before they put roundabout everywhere..a shoutout to Bundaberg old days of dragging up the main street.. like 40 year ago
"With the eyes of one who hates for just being born"
The brilliance of an almost 30-yr old Bruce and his amazing lyrics.
"I blew that Camaro of my back and I drove that little girl away...." One of the finest images in rock history! And Joey is right... the outro of this song was always the strongest part!
I wish the Big Man Clarence Clemens was still with us.
John Bowerman I miss The Big Man too
DON'T WE ALL, BUT JAKE, HIS NEPHEW IS DOIN' A GREAT JOB FILLIN' IN FER UNC !!!
Every time the camera shot comes to the Big Man, I get tears in my eyes.... even tho' Jake is doing such a great job too!
His is John !
@@johnnyraiderallison906 It's his nephew ? I stand happily corrected Johnny !
That's an opera and a mass, sunday church service combined in one holy piece of music. Only The Boss can do it that way. (from Germany)
Starting at five minutes you see what I believe to be a deep appreciation for the talent of this band in his eyes. No lyrics, just everyone playing their part! He mouths something at 6 minutes, I like to think that he says, what a band!
Could he be any more amazing? You hear the emotion in his voice. True genius. No one can compare.
by far the absolute best song ever written and performed by real musicians
Agreed
Absolute masterpiece
True word's right there
Fucking great bunch of musicians.
Real music, poetry, soul, depth, genius and talent 🔥❤️🇺🇸❤️🤍💙
Having seen this man and his band so many times, this version of Racing In the Street is spectacular. Bruce is the voice of a generation. I’m so grateful that he is the lyricist for my lifetime.
Exactly. This is my truth.
Such a beautiful song. How can I thank you for giving me songs to grow up and old to? I have ALS and I just sit and listen to these every night and remember better days, like when I first heard this. Thank you
Just bought my ticket to see Bruce next year at Wembley stadium - just hope he plays this song !?
This is why we call him " The Boss"!
I love, "Some guys they just give up living
And start dying little by little, piece by piece
Some guys come home from work and wash up
And go racin' in the street".
When it's time to assemble the time capsule showing the best of humankind and send it to outer space, this video has to be part of the package.
More than 10 years old, and we are still coming here to watch this video...
It was his best song . What beautiful tribute to an amazing man. Long live Clarence!
He must be so proud, surely, not ‘ only ‘ to written and sung one of very best songs ever taped or performed, but, to be graced with such a blast furnace of a band,..overflowing with a jaw dropping ability to construct more intensity than you shall EVER hear elsewhere.
Fantastic post Matthew.
Blast Furnace indeed. Little Stevie Van Zant, Max Weinberg.
Out of this world. Legendary and just mindblowing...this song and the way it is performed goes into eternity.
I brividi, l'emozione, le lacrime, i ricordi.
Questa versione è di una bellezza assoluta.
Sei immenso Bruce e immensi sono i musicisti della E Street Band.
Mi avete fatto amare la musica e mi avete migliorato la vita.
Grazie dal profondo del cuore.
Grazie Grazie Grazie
Concordo in pieno, Carla..
Funny how I listened to him for decades before I realized what a great person he is. Amazing artist amazing heart.
Anyone after 50+ yrs loving this guy?
I can't help but feel grateful for the timeless masterpiece that is Bruce Springsteen's "Racing in the Streets." This song, with its haunting melody and poignant lyrics, has touched the hearts of generations of music lovers. The way Springsteen captures the longing for a life beyond the mundane, the desire for escape and the hope for something better is truly remarkable. His ability to weave together themes of love, loss, and the human spirit is a testament to his artistic brilliance. I am grateful for the countless hours of joy that "Racing in the Streets" has brought me and for the way it has touched the lives of so many. This Thanksgiving, Thank you, Bruce Springsteen and his enduring legacy of music that continues to inspire and uplift us all.
The jamming part with piano and rock music is awesome. However I must admit one more Bruce’s masterpiece’The River’ which always drive me in perusing my life.
Well put. ❤
Even if he has fuellie heads on a 396?
Thats something a gear head wouldn't attempt to do.
Eloquently said.
This piece has such a strong, strong sense of place and time. Bruce Springsteen and his band are incomparable.
This was my late wife's favorite song. It was always are go to. Seen it done live a numerous times but this one brings tears to my eyes. May all that have gone before us rest in peace. Thank you Bruce for the wonderful memories
This touched me man. Bless you and the love you guys had
Peace....
She must have been some woman, I actually knew guys in Jersey like Bruce is singing about...I don't even know you guys, but I bet I would like you both b/c of this song....she will be right there waiting for you on the porch of her daddy's house, saying baby you made it alright...)))
She was exceptional. Bruce has a way of bringing people together. That is why my best friend of 40 years is still in my life. And yes I also believe she will be waiting for me with arms wide open when it's my time.
The piano, dear lord, the piano….
There's only one boss songs like this keeps you alive but only Bruce fans will understand that .he's the only artist that puts tears in my eyes.
Nothing and Nobody to compare ,it’s simply great and pure art
this and Jungleland my absolute favorites.... poetic, rythmic, timeless.
One of the loveliest songs I have ever heard and this performance is beautiful beyond description
That jam out never gonna end - glorious!
My thoughts EXACTLY !
How amazingly he writes our lives down in poetic Justice. He is undoubtedly one of the supreme songwriters of our time and I hope he continues to write for the people.
The boss because he put together the best band in the world
The piano and the bassline of this song makes me weep, it's stronger than me. Thank you E Street band!
A stunning song that has lost none of its majesty over the years, instead it has grown in its power.
agree
Absolutely, this version has more depth than any other, fantastic.
More poignant now that the Boss is no longer young himself.
Agreed. Nuff said.
Pure.poetry . Passion on the edge of Town.
" one who hates for just being born" My God, that describes deep depression and grief better than anything I've ever heard.
One of the best codas in music, following one of the best stories in music. This is the Boss, and the band, at their greatest.
I dont know what perfection looks or sounds like.....but this .....this must be close
Chill Winston lol this is a horrible version
Onomatopoeia
@@pgaquigz1125ma cosa stai dicendo? 🤔🙄
@@pgaquigz1125forse stai scherzando? 🤔🙄
A new meaning for the word "perfection".
This performance simply blows my mind. The song is obviously legendary and one of the most powerful of Springsteen gems. The performance is so intense, it bends gravity. The band starts off cool - almost restrained - and then, the pressure builds up towards the end like a boiler on the brink of explosion. Springsteens voice is gritty like a bag of rusty nails. Your eardrums are scratched and your heart pierced. The band roars underneath the surface like a wild animal dying to be let loose. One of my all time favourite performances.
Totally agree with you!
Couldn't have said it better myself.
Vivid, accurate description.
Nailed It👍🏼👊🏼
Totally agree with your comments. This arrangement is flawless.
Music simply doesnt get any better than this...
One of the greatest songs ever written!
Bruce's mystery ride on the rollercoaster of life, love, and loss. I still get chills ! RIP # 🎷 Clarence
@@brianwade1819 I agree
Vorrei non finisse mai questa musica straordinaria !!grazie a tutti i musicisti !e a Bruce per queste bellissime emozioni!!!💗💗💗💓💓💔💔💎💎🎶🎶🎶🎶🎸🎸🎷🎷😇😘😘♥️
Bruce's music is what makes the world worth living in. He cuts through all the waste, and gives us what we need. Each person hears his music in their own way, abd what they hear is life changing. There's three things that change a person for the better, falling in true never ending love, finding God of your beliefs, and hearing the music of Bruce Springsteen. Im glad to live in an era with Bruce Springsteen alive. It is truly a bright light in an otherwise dim world.
A Priceless Work Of Art .
Goosebumps every single time.
I keep coming back again and again to listen to this song and every time, I hear a different part. Roy Bittan's piano playing is brilliant.
Did a lot of piano on the Bat out of Hell album as well (Meat Loaf)....
The first time I ever heard this song I wept. I couldn't believe how much a piece of music could go straight to my soul. Still love it 30+ years later.
Als er ooit een betere song geschreven word als deze ..valt die nog steeds in het niets bij deze ..best ever
Tonight my baby and me, we're gonna ride to the sea, and wash these sins off our hands.
This is one of the moments Bruce proves he can play. You think I just sing and write songs, watch this
The drums are incredible in the climatic 5mins onwards. Masters of their craft these guys.
Some guys just give up living,
Start dying little by little piece by piece,
Some guys come home from workin, wash up,
and go racing in the street...!
Best words to live life by...
Amen
Perdonami Jesse van der wai! Non conosco la,inglese! Comunque grazie! 😌😍♥️
You just really don’t want this to end
Pretty sure this song is my Roman Empire.
Just discovered this song, so glad I did, it’s only taken me 68 years 😢
I’m gonna go a little bit out on a limb here(or maybe not at all), and say without doubt... “Darkness On The Edge Of Town” is the greatest album ever made!!!!! Especially, if you work for a living, it still reigns true 40 years later!! Amazing!!!
Up the workers, and hail to the Boss
It's an amazing album...I've just listened to it again from start to finish. Amazing album. Dunno about the best album ever but it's definitely my favourite Springsteen album. It's real, it's gritty and it's unbelievably brilliant musically!
Yeah and the dirt track sub-culture is still out there too, although I don't know if it's still going up in Jersey, but it sure as hell is in the South. Guys who pour all their extra money into a car and race it
Man your username is ShadeyDude... what work you doing for a living lmao
Even better than BTR if you ask me
I come here to find the courage and strength I need to get through the day..
I watch this every few days. An absolutely amazing performance!
I fell the same way about LYNYRD Skynyrd , but I can't pick just 1 out.
But this is a great song and version of it is I don't but this is the 1 I listen to.
@@robertgodby4925 il finale è un capolavoro! 🥰😍😘💘💕
Bruce has a big catalogue and this is #1 for me. So much love for the music and lyrics. Complete theatre.
