Patti Smith Reveals the Story Behind Her Most Successful Song and Performs Live With David Remnick
Starring: Patti Smith
Producer: The New Yorker
I met Patti when I worked at a club where she performed at a club in Chicago. She shyly asked for a cup of black coffee. After I gave it to her she said thank you and stepped back into the shadows quietly and just kind of disappeared. An hour later she was on stage and was amazing. I had met many very famous musicians but none were as humble as she. Many thanks for posting this!!
great story
@@hairdresser1300 Absolutely thank YOU Rebecca
I just adore her. So genuine, such a talented poet. Love this.
+Thomas Headley. Also her take on Bobs' "Changing of the Guards" Patti's a true Artist, love her.
Her music enriched my life and still does now.
Mine too
Still whenever I hear this song takes me right back to 1978, aged 14, playing the record over and over in my bedroom belting out every word....♥️
I love her....Patti is totally Patti...no pretensions.
It's sureal to know that the song that made her so successfull lay on just this tiny moment of a lover waiting for a phone call. It make me love the song even more.
I love how she grins almost bashfully at the audience and Remneck between verses. An artist who truly cares about reaching her audience in a meaningful way, and still does so remarkably well!
Amber Tucker Why is it when musicians age we say, she still does remarkably well - like Patti would be incapable of giving a Patti Smith performance due to age? Aging doesn't have to mean incapacitated.
@Paula Polestar *meaningful
@@sarah_b_555 You beat me to it - I hate it when people correct someone with an incorrect correction...
This Artist is an absolute genius and soo Gifted, with not only her vocals but her wonderful lyrics and poems.
She does this well...its lost none of its power over the years....immortal...
Very talented lady. As powerful a song as ever-it will always be her song.
Exceptional world class artist, seen her live and up close in an accoustic live session in Berlin recently celebrating 30years fall of the wall and important memories of her life. Unforgettable presence and voice. She is gold
The whole album "Easter" is nothing short of brilliant
Truer words have never been written. My favorite rock and roll album ever. I've listened to EASTER (literally) thousands of times. The ultimate rock record.
I bought Easter when it came out! I still Love it and Patti and her band PSG. A lot of friends thru out my life never understood Patti and My Love for her since 1975, Not even my wife ,,, I don't know if Patti would ever read these comments here on You Tube, but I would like her to know we are still out here , LOVING her music in 2020!!!!!! Bob
My favorite album of hers! I got to see her in concert when that album was out!
Bono likes too I read
Love her soulful presence, Patti forever
You gotta love this song and the way she sings with such passion.
This is so absolutely beautiful. Love Patti.
We are all very glad he made you wait for that call ❤️
Such an inspiring female artist!!!! True to the core and free as a bird!!!
Patti Smith - brilliant, talented and modestly amazing.
Great story and such a wonderful performance. Love so much Patti, her voice, her tenderness and her powerful artistic soul.
Great to hear the story behind the song and to see Patti performing so well
Patti we love you !! A real free spirit!!
What a beautiful soul she is. Took a good song to new heights and owned it. This coming from a Bruce fan!
Just beautiful. Thank GOD for Patti!
I fricken LOVE this song. The lyrics the melody, the key and Patti Smith singing ❤
Wow she still sounds awesome at this age
I am a longtime lover of Patti Smith, her music, poetry, nonfiction and all-around fabulousness. I so appreciate the way she participates in the world!! Great job David Remnick on accompanying Patti on “Because The Night.” 💖
She sounds fantastic! Her voice is lovely and so powerful doesn't even need that microphone. Brava!
In some ways, she has gotten better.
@@katperson1955 I agree. She is such an authentically humble, though terrifically talented artist!
WOW!!! A freakin' legend!!! Love her so much!!!
I am one of those Springsteen fanatics…but I have to admit that Patti took this song to a place Bruce couldn’t reach.
David Remnick, wow.
Amazing! Just amazing. I love you Patti!
Great Patti!! I was introduced to your album Easter in 78 when I was a senior in highschool!! I fell in love with it!! I was lucky enough to find the music book years later and play many of the songs on my Baby Grand!! Much Peace & Love
She killed it.
Just saw her! December 2022..in Beverly Hills..she gave a talk on her new book…The Book of Days…photographs…and she sang..it was great.
She did end with this ❤❤
I have since the the 70s and always will be in total awe of patties amazing talent and unique voice... Its a never ending love affair.. I hope pattie lives forever.. And even that won't be long enough for the world to enjoy her immensnes
*"Because The Night"* is perhaps the best song I've listened to from *Easter*.
One heck of an artwork she herself is.
She is a Living HUMAN 'Peace' of Art
I love this! Her lyrics are so so poetic.
What a voice...just incredible....
Love, love, LOVE this great woman! She's still adorable!
God I love this song. She is truly a muse❤️
She's so incredibly gifted. Wonderful performance
One thing I find amazing is there is little to no reverb on her mic. Rare to never do you hear singers not using good amounts of reverb. It enhances their voices. Patti doesn’t need any help at all!!!!
Still sounding absolutely amazing
Patti Smith you Rock
Excellent song that will stand the test of time.
Patti, your humility is light.
She hasn't missed a beat! sounds good just like she first sang it!
Love this version
oh my goodness
too amazing
I keep on repeat the song in this video
What a lady. Imagine how many like her are not allowed to speak their minds in so many cultures. That is a true crime against humanity.
..she ís Fighting for as wéll!
She’s amazing ❤.
Love this woman still amazing .
Loved her and her music
I discorred that amazing singer two days ago! She's just brilliant! i like people when they natural, when they're just themselves
Aw. I wish the audience sang along more! Still love Patti.
The most beautiful woman on the planet earth. The night's not the only time that belongs to love. All day and night is good time to love...
She sounds great.
I love when she sings Oh Holly Night, So amazing
wow thank you Patti wow what a poem for God God bless you amen

Have i doubt when i´m alone. Love is a ring the telephone. - i was just writing the words when she explained what they ment.

mother of inspiration ,,,,,,
Bono called it perfect...he said he’d wish he wrote it.... it’s perfect....never fails .....
SUPER!!!
Bono said it was perfect ..... it’s perfect.....
never fails......
Awwwnnn sweet~~~
Very cool story, and a classic song. I first heard it when Patti opened for the Rolling Stones in the Spring of 78. (They were playing stadiums, but played a couple of shows in small venues. This was at the Fox Theater in Atlanta, which holds about 4,900). My reaction was, *WOW*, what a great song.
I don't believe Bruce ever released a studio version of Because the Night, but he played it at many of the 1978 "Darkness on the Edge of Town" tour shows, and plays it occasionally, still. I first experienced it, coincidentally, at his show at the same Fox Theater on September 30. I also heard it at Winterland in San Francisco on December 15, 1978, with about 5,000 others who were packed in. I'd say the song was well received, but judge for yourself (I'd suggest turning it up).

By the way, that's Bruce playing lead.
I LOVE PATTI!!!
Still a groundbreaker . . . people will only know in about a hundred years what she laid open during her/our lifetime . . .
...they Knów!
🔥🔥🔥❤️❤️🌟🌟🌟2020!!!
*It's her birthday tomorrow*
❤
Woman you worth listen too
Great song, she also co-wrote about six songs with Blue Oyster Cult back when she was dating Allen Lanier.
💗
her and johnette napolitano...genius...
i love that story! i remember running home...hoping the red light on the answering machine was on...my heart dropped when it wasn't....lol
♥
5:39 sweeties, let me just tell you... if this was here in brazil... and she did that very move as if saying "sing with me"... oh honey...
I love her music, but this one is my favorite, well maybe tied with “I’m Dancing Barefoot”.
That audience is about as enthusiastic as a tub of ice cubes.
Others have covered this song very nicely, but Patti is still the best.
!It's HER Song?
@@enricovankeeken9503 Springsteen wrote it with her, so yes, it is her song.
