  • The other takes/versions online don't cut it. This genuinely has the best audio mix you'll find anywhere. You'll not find better, and it's the closest to a studio version of this arrangement. Apologies for the visuals (lack of) I didn't think that was the issue here. Just wanted to share what I understand to be the FIRST ever time the song was played this way. It's a scrappy, horrible-looking video, no doubt about that, but the sound really is the best you'll find on this arrangement. It's rare... but it's all there.

    This song will always hold a lot of meaning for me. I was in the hospital after a major heart attack and in a coma for 16 days. It was touch and go and the doctors didn't think I'd make it. The two things I remember are this song going over and over in my head and knowing I had this amazing woman who loved me and that I had to be tough to be with her. I made it thru and this song has such meaning. Thank you for your love Jul, Happy Valentine''s Day. I love you.

    This version is so stunningly beautiful. You can hear the anguish in his voice, he almost sounds like he's going to cry, and it gives me chills.
    "The road is dark and its a thin thin line But I want you to know Ill walk it for you any time"
    Wow, just wow. There needs to be more men like this in the world.

    This song is new to me and it was brought to my life by someone that i deeply love with a love beyond conventions. Death likes to flirt with him, but this time, he doesn't flirt back and that's where much of his strength comes from. The few times that i've had the privilege to see him listening to this song, and especially this solo version, has moved me profoundly. I can feel how deep he's touched by it and that feeling is so contagious that it brings me to the point of tears, whether he is with me or not. So much strength, so much love.

    This is far better than the album version, without those mushy synths. Covered by Shawn Colvin, so I put both in my Colvin playlist. Thanks for the upload!

    • @williamknell864
      @williamknell864 Před 2 lety +1

      Some of the synth sounds, starting on Born In The USA, really detract.
      You have to pay extra attention to not forget how good a given song is.

    @1979RED1 - I believe it's 17th November 1990 - Los Angeles CA - Shrine Auditorium. It'd be the first time he ever gave the song a live try like this (solo w/piano). So, yeah, earliest version this way... as far as I know. There're a few versions floating around that you'll hear, but I managed to get this as the clearest cut. Best version. Vocal nice and close. Obviously from the soundboard.

    Okay so I love Clapton, adore Knopfler and the Dire Straits en think Eddie Vedder is absolutely one of the most underrated singer-/songwriter out there.. Nobody comes close to Bruce! Wow, this man, the lyrics, the melodies, the voice when he gets emotional.. If I was religious Bruce would be my God I guess.
    For the people who aren't really familiar with Bruce but like this song, you might enjoy:
    Walk like a man, Racing in the Streets (piano), When you're Alone and Born to Run acoustic live. Bye!

    @eyeulf Před 12 lety

    Thats not what I ment. I say a Springsteen song sounds good on any Instrument
    a guitar or even a piano, with a band or solo. No one can ever duplicate the boss !
    Please mind your words we are in the internet not in a ghetto.

    Handsome Dan or a Good Lookin' Joe. Sweet talking Romeo. If you're rough and ready for love. I'm tougher than the rest. There's another dance all you've got to do is say yes. This guy can really turn a phrase. As he said about another song, "My rhyming dictionary was on fire." He couldn't be greater.

    Not exactly a HUGE venue-- it is indeed the Shrine Auditorium 11-17-90... 6700 seats at the time of this show. But indeed, it is absolutely the finest version ever of this song-- the similar SOLO Piano versions of 2005 did not quite hit this plateau.
