My life's an open book You read it on the radio We got nowhere to hide We got nowhere to go But if you still decide That you want to take a ride Meet me at the wrecking ball Wrecking ball Wear something pretty and white And we'll go dancin' tonight Meet me at the wrecking ball Wrecking ball Wear something pretty and white And we'll go dancin' tonight I see your smoky eyes Right across the bar I've seen that look before Shining from star to star Though I can't take that chance If you got time for one dance Meet me at the wrecking ball Wrecking ball Wear something pretty and white And we'll go dancin' tonight Meet me at the wrecking ball Wrecking ball Wear something pretty and white And we'll go dancin' tonight The restless line of cars Goes stretchin' down the road But I won't telephone 'Cause you might say hello What is it makes me feel this way? What is it makes me want to say Meet me at the wrecking ball Wrecking ball Wear something pretty and white And we'll go dancin' tonight Meet me at the wrecking ball Wrecking ball Wear something pretty and white And we'll go dancin' tonight
Yet another brilliant song this guy has done, i remember when he did After The Goldrush and he has been at the top ever since, it gets boring when i cannot find fault in his product.
Now looking at it again, I believe Freedom 1989 displays an incorrect image. He does not fall in love with a girl at the disco. The wrecking ball is what he sees outside his apartment window, (where they apparently both live) and he dreams that he and his adored neighbor could possibly go out and 'dance' one day. Listen to it again. And if unsure, listen to it again ... and again, if need be. ;-)
He can write songs but where this one is concerend it defiantely sound better with a female voice singing it. Emmylou Harris realy gets the emotions across.
To say the wrecking ball is an f' ing disco ball totally discredits the whole thing. Perhaps I am wrong for perhaps giving credit to NY ? The smokey eyes used to be 'right across the hall'. Not 'right across the bar'. I am certain of this . Let's see how many sharp people there are out there ..
I love Neil’s music, but leaving his wife then hooking up with Daryl Hannah, he’s a typical old guy looking for gold. Lost all of my respect. Love his music, wonder about the man.
This song is great, reminds me of a guy with Waffle Hair and another guy who is invincible back in the late 1800s
A 20th Century bot maybe?
A guy with a weird haircut throw a ball at me and now I can’t feel my left side, pls help
Where did my left half go?
Is that a fcking jojo reference?
@@geraldlee9608 yes
Are you all right now?
This video is in stereo but
my right ear loved this.
It is almost as if something is blocking my left side hearing as well
I wish there was a clip of Neil sining this back in the day. This is one of the prettiest
songs ever written, in my opinion.
My thoughts exactly!!
Great name for a song and for a bar too.
people be like: people that dont have a stand are useless to the plot
me, a chad and spin enjoyer: mangohead guy
This song transcends generations and genres.
this guy can write songs
My life's an open book
You read it on the radio
We got nowhere to hide
We got nowhere to go
But if you still decide
That you want to take a ride
Meet me at the wrecking ball
Wrecking ball
Wear something pretty and white
And we'll go dancin' tonight
Meet me at the wrecking ball
Wrecking ball
Wear something pretty and white
And we'll go dancin' tonight
I see your smoky eyes
Right across the bar
I've seen that look before
Shining from star to star
Though I can't take that chance
If you got time for one dance
Meet me at the wrecking ball
Wrecking ball
Wear something pretty and white
And we'll go dancin' tonight
Meet me at the wrecking ball
Wrecking ball
Wear something pretty and white
And we'll go dancin' tonight
The restless line of cars
Goes stretchin' down the road
But I won't telephone
'Cause you might say hello
What is it makes me feel this way?
What is it makes me want to say
Meet me at the wrecking ball
Wrecking ball
Wear something pretty and white
And we'll go dancin' tonight
Meet me at the wrecking ball
Wrecking ball
Wear something pretty and white
And we'll go dancin' tonight
*WOAH! ALL THE LEFT PART OF ME IS GONE AFTER I GOT STRUCK BY A SPINNING BALL FROM EMINEM!*
Beautiful.....................

Trop beau!! Vraiment Neil est un Grand!!! et toujours là...
thnx for putting this up!
Gorgeous, haunting NY tune. Terrific photo collage. Thanks for posting this.
Takes me back to the pumphouse few drinks the barflies and the beautiful willie M in the corner. .RIP brother
Reminds me of a couple who are maybe cheating on their spouses. My favorite song on this album, beautiful.
So emotional I could die...

Steel ball run or am I crazy

I agree Emmylou does this one better, like much better, she is simply a better singer and brings much more emotions in to this song
I wouldn't say better singer as it can depend on the song.
@@bjrnrichter7445 Agreed 100%
EH's version is utterly magnificent
Hi crazy 🐎
who's the photographer?
good question. artists deserve credit (not to mention payment).
I can't feel my left side
Left side ataxia, am i right fellas?

Oh God, I hate death.
Accept no Miley substitutes.

miley rip off!
The song was more popular than the Miley version and that’s a fact
The "troll-radar" doesn't seem to work for some people. Must be hard.
