The entire ‘Born To Run Album’ is EASILY Springsteen’s BEST !!!!
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
There is NOTHING more magical than being in the stadium when he plays this song live. The energy from the crowd when the song kicks off and the passion as the crowd screams along with him is just unlike ANYTHING I've ever witnessed at a show. It's pure magic!
RIP to the Big Man, Clarence Clemons. What a powerful player he was.
Check out "rock n roll dj" by the big man from his solo album.
Its a scorcher and clarence never blew better.
@@TheCornishCockney Thanks for the suggestion. Reminds me of John Cafferty and the Beaver Brown Band.
@@grega8586 I think you have that backwards....the Eddie and the Cruisers soundtrack (their first album) was released 8 years after Born to Run...
@@markchapel6694 What do I have backwards?
Loved the Big Man, there is no missing him
How could you not have heard this before ??? Absolute Classic.
The greatest thing about this song is that I still have this same emotional reaction every time I hear it after 40 plus years.
"Tramps like us, baby we were born to run!" Classic American Rock!
Thunder Road & Blinded By The Light
N&L, you love their "Rosalita", "Jungleland", "Thunder Road" and about 30 more! The E Street Band is tight! RIP Clarence Clemons(Sax). Great singer/songwriter and performer. One of the few artists I've bothered to see twice in concert (4 hr shows)
One of my favoriteBruce songstress!
And RIP Danny Federici
30? I think that number can safely be doubled. You have to add Incident on 57th Street to the list
So Bruce said about this song that he wanted to write a song that sounded like it was written by Bob Dylan, sung by Roy Orbison and produced by Phil Spector. He did it and it's a masterpiece!
The great line from this: "Together, Wendy, we'll live with the sadness. I'll love you with all the madness in my soul."
Try Thunder Road, for my money, the greatest song in rock. Or, on the anniversary of 9/11, the brilliantly poetic song about it, The Rising.
ALWAYS LOVED THOSW LINES, TOO... SO MOVING!!
When this album dropped in 1975, everyone was just blown away by the sheer power of the band as a whole and the songwriting in particular. Bruce captured a true suburban middle-class sensibility that resonated with young people living in small towns in middle American every bit as much as suburban teens in New Jersey.
Middle America yes. John Mellencamp also has these themes, but more of a midwestern rural twang. A young man's discontent with the status quo and wanting to get out was Bruce Springsteen, while John Mellencamp often sang of being proud of his small town roots and wanting to remain in that place.
It was almost as good as the two albums that preceded it.
Bruce's career spans 50 years. I loved the movie - Blinded by the Light that came out two years ago. Springsteen on Broadway, his last album Letter to You is fantastic. He released his set from the No Nukes concert in 1979 at Madison Square Garde back in November.
Agree with every word you wrote!!
This was for working class not middle class.
Just two words: Thunder Road. Thank you
American Rock is probably the best term. It has elements of folk because he’s a storyteller. Some of his later albums do go folk. Great start to my Thursday.
My fav line is "Baby this town rips the bones from your back"
This is my favorite song of all time. I'm 68 years old & continue to run to this day !
Jungleland, Backstreets, Candy’s Room,Meeting Across The River, And Prove It All Night, amongst many other classics!
Hey guys, you are probably listening to Bruce's GREATEST song he ever wrote. Many put it on the top 10 GREATEST rock songs ever written. I loved it the first time i heard it and NEVER get tired of listening especially live versions which are kickass. Watch one of the many live versions on you tube and check out the crowds reactions. Always powerful and awesome live music 🤗
I first heard this on the radio when I was 12 (in 1981) and thought it was so much better than any other song I had heard before.
Born to Run the girl is Wendy. Thunder Road (same album) the girl is named Mary.
Don't know if anyone mentioned this, but after Born To Run was released, Springsteen became the first rock star to be on the covers of Time and Newsweek magazines in the same week (October 27, 1975). This was a big thing at the time because magazines were a very important aspect of media in the days before cable tv and social media.
What a Great album! Every song is solid gold. Thunder Road, Jungleland, Meeting Across the River, etc,etc. May be a good album to cover in full. Please watch him in concert. He's even better live.
“Born to Run” with it’s Phil Spector “wall of sound “ is considered by many to be a top 10 rock and roll album of all time.
You know, I’ve listened to this countless times and I’m still crying 😭 today 40 years on. So emotional. I love it.
The Cure were years later and would’ve been influenced by Springsteen.
Springsteen was the epitome of a working class folk hero. A man of the people.. rocking it for everyone.
This album is a lifetime away. I grew up in the late sixties and seventies. The greatest era of rock music and nobody will change my mind. It was just everywhere.
"This is very nice." Wow, talk about the understatement of the century.
“We’ll get to that place where we really want to go, and we’ll walk in the sun.” That’s been my goal my entire life. Still searching for that place.
The lyrics are exceptional, some of the most poetic in rock 'n' roll. The arrangement builds and swirls blasts off and returns, great energy and charisma. His first few albums are classics and will always be the best. This song is a classic American anthem, the power and glory of the human spirit to survive and thrive.
Nice 👍. Well said. Like a professional review. Thanks ✨🤪
One of many Bruce Masterpieces...
Bowie loved Springsteen and covered one of his songs... "Its Hard to Be a Saint in the City".
You really owe it to yourselves to consume this (great) song in the context of the album, it’s one of the last truly great albums, right up there with pet sounds and goodbye yellow brick road. Just a beautiful and profound romantic street opera and definitely Springsteen’s greatest and most definitive work.
Bruce has more than 300 songs - 100 are OK - 100 are really good - 50 are fantastic - 50 are works of art to be cherished by future generations.
Where to start? OMG!! From the same album as this song react to Jungleland. It’s a 9 minute epic. 🔥❤️
Jungleland is indeed truly amazing...but the icing on the cake would be to listen to Meeting Across the River as a prelude (as it is on the album)
The saxophone is epic. As is the ending. Don’t cut it short.
That is why we are here and you are here, because this is your first listen and we get to witness it!
I enjoy the fact that y'all are true music LOVERS ... not just 'hearing heads.'
Thanks again for sharing the welling up of tears for this [musical] masterpiece (with a timeless incomparable style all its own).
✌️☺️👏
Yes, you can't listen to this song without getting chills. One of the great lyricists of our time. And surrounded by a stellar band. Got to see him in Memphis in 1984. Struck out at getting tickets, but he added another show and was able to get 5th row! I think the tickets were $12.50. I've seen just about everyone live, but I have never been to a concert with this much energy. He played for over 3 hours, probably closer to 4.
E Street Band's Little Steven was Silvio on the Soprano's
Words to this song were actually in my college literature textbook 😊
1975... The longest, LOUDEST, concert I ever saw and I saw hundreds !! Four encores !! AWESOME !! Great reaction too.
This'll be a bit "inside baseball" but... Imagine it's 1979 or so. It's a warm summer's night. You are both in your teens or very early twenties. You're with your best friends. You're out cruising in your "suicide machines" up and down South Broadway, between Ridge Road and Belleview. This song comes on the radio. You crank it. There is not a care in the world... :)
This is EXACTLY the scenario that I pictured with this song. Lovely! Thank you for sharing your cherished memories with us ❤️ - Lex
Bruce is the greatest musican out there. The Boss !!
Bruce Springsteen is, pure and simple, a lyrical and musical genius.
Bruce’s first 4 albums are gold. Enjoy the journey. Thunderoad, Candy’s Room, Kitty’s Back, She’s the One, Backstreets…so many good ones.
Awesome. The Boss! Glad you both liked.... keep it going! Bruce sang at the 9/11 memorial today. Beautiful.
Think of the impact of this song in 1975. When singer-songwriter and dance music was dominating the charts.
If you're digging this - from the same album check out Meeting Across the River a very bluesy jazzy gangster story (or gangster wanna be story)!
Or try Candy's Room from the Darkness at the Edge of Town album (a superb album)
There is a sound called "Americana" which is earthy often featuring acoustic string instruments. But is soaked with Blues, Folk, Soul, Gospel, Soul & a little Jazz. Springsteen is a good example. Also his songs are often sung from the perspective of the "Blue Collar" everyman. He gives voice to regular people with everyday non glamorous lives in their victories, defeats, fears & triumphs. This endears him to his fans all the more. Check out "The River", Meeting Across the Tunnel", "My Hometown" & "Tougher Than The Rest". Not his biggest hits but they really convey the spirit of his music & talent as a story teller.
One of Billboards 500 greatest songs, in rock history.
RIP, to the big man, Clarence Clemons.
A treasure. Thunder Road and many more. The E Street band was legendary. Bruce created a Broadway performance several years ago that was nearly impossible to get tickets. A modern day poet.
Not was, still is.
🤗 Rosalita is my favorite Bruce song to sing loudly. #FunFact 😎 Frankie Goes to Hollywood covering Born To Run is 1 of my favorite things on the Planet! 😁🐰
The Cure is Happy-sad, ;), I love it too, Bruce is one of my favorite artist. I am Mexican, but his stories, his past, his voice, the sound of the E street Band, I love everything, and I know he is very patriotic, so it's unlikely he is ever going to visit México, but he is fabulous and awesome in every way, God bless you all.
Estaría padrísimo que fuera a México!! Saludos y un abrazo 🤗 Gracias por vernos!!
#Facts 😂 Bruce sound like an old man in his 20's! 😍 Storytelling at its best! 😁🐰
Welcome to the Boss rabbit hole, guys 🤙One of my top ten artists of all time, hands down. Seen him with the E Street Band perform live in 2007, a 3 hour show, such a generous attitude towards the audience...
I think this is one of those songs that you're sure you must have heard before, because when you do hear it, you can't imagine there was ever a world without it...
I was just 14 when this first came out in NYC on 77wabc NEW YORK. It ROCKED this city. His greatest hit ever. Growing up in the 60s and 70s there wasn't too many artists I did not record on my cassette double tape deck. Chicago, The Eagles, Steely Dan, Peter Frampton, Doobie Brothers, The Trammps, Stylistics, Blue Magic-list goes on and on. And who could ever forget ELO with Telephone Line 1977. I still have those songs stuck in me.
Yep, straight American Rock. The only way to really experience Springsteen is live.
Hey back in early 80’s a bunch of us went to see him. This song he would play at the end and it was awesome. Tears would flow from all of our eyes, guys and girls. It wounded your soul in a good way. Was beautiful to see everyone in the audience dancing and joyfully embracing the moment. A tru blessing.
I love the earlier Springsteen like Born To Run. I think my favorite from this album is Thunder Road. Definitely worth a listen.
This song set me free.
When I was only 19 years old I was in and abusive marriage,and I was just so downtrodden,lonely and hurt inside. This song came on the radio and I knew,this was it. I had to run.
And run I did! All the way bck to Hollywood,and I never looked back.
What he achieved with this recording is amazing. Many of his songs hit hard and then many also miss for me personally, but the range of influence and element that B.S. and the E Street Band packaged into this 4-5 minute song is nothing short of musical and lyrical genius. Thunder road is the same way (many others actually) but this is so precise and concise that it is always my first recommendation for newcomers to Bruce Springsteen.
Greatest 'escape' song ever written.
#theBoss
He is, after all, The Boss...
Check out jungleland from the same album. It's beyond incredible!!!!!
New York Serenade! Early Bruce and so so good! 👌🌻
You have to watch this performance live. The energy he produced at concerts were amazing!
4 hour concerts!
One of the greatest r&r songs!
To me, this is the best song has ever written and arranged from The Boss.
More Gentle Giant, please! Advent of Panurge, Experience, Peel the paint?
Jungleland and 10th Ave Freeze Out were a couple of my favorites from this album :-)
If you haven't listened to them before, you should check out Meatloaf. Paradise By The Dashboard Lights is a popular one ;-)
I think Born to Run the album was his GREATEST, with Born in the USA a close second. Just my opinion. Both albums were CLASSICS and magical.
Where I lived in the 70's and 80's, the local rock station always played Born To Run at 6:00 PM every Friday - they called it the beginning of the weekend - I'll probably always think of Friday night and Born To Run together. There's LOTS of Bruce Springsteen to check out - and his catalogue is so lengthy and diverse, you're sure to find much more that you like.
WMMS with Kid Leo?
Another fun fact, the iconic instrumental line that Nick refers to was contributed by their guitarist, Steve Van Zandt, who played Tony Soprano's consiglieri, Silvio Dante.
OMG you guys! Soooo many great songs out there and you are just finding them! You must feel like it’s Christmas every day!
Bruce began in the late 60s within a band called Steel Mill and they were a kind of blues rock jam band, playing sometimes songs over 15 minutes 🤪
Springsteen is a great rabbit hole to fall into. You have to listen to “The River” - it will move you in ways you never imagined
Great reaction and keep it up :)
First time here, but watching this touch her soul in 2022 was beautiful! 😜
I think I remember hearing that Roy Orbison was a big influence on this album. This definitely rocks harder than Roy, but Bruce was going for those big romantic, sweeping operatic feelings. Bruce allowed many of us teen males feel something passionate beyond the usual metal/hard rock cliches in the late 70's.
He was billed as ‘the Future of Rock n Roll’ when he appeared on the covers of both Time and Newsweek simultaneously when this album was released. Finally an answer to Disco! My then girlfriend was really into him even before this album and got me into The Wild, The Innocent and the E-Street Shuffle. On that album he sounds like he’s mimicking Bob Dylan. Listen to Sandy (4th of July, Asbury Park)
This song is pure theater,and I mean that in a good way.
My cousin gave me a cassette copy of this album when I was 12 years old. Amazing album, amazing artist. Springsteen is an American storyteller - he was hailed as the "new Bob Dylan" when this album broke, and appeared on the covers of both Newsweek and Time the same week. This is a DEEP rabbit hole, but well worth exploring. I got to see the Born In The USA tour in Denver back in 1985, and have seen him a number of time since...but he always puts on a show - a marathon show - concerts 2, 3, sometimes 4 hours long! I think he's slowed down a bit these days, but still knows how to entertain the crowd.
The breakdown before the last verse STILL gives me chills, and I've heard this song thousands of times. "Jungleland" is another I think you'd really enjoy, but for the music AND the storytelling.
"Thunder Road" to follow now on your journey. Probably you should do this with the rare and only one time performance with Melissa Etheridge
Love the show guys. So good to see people passionate about music. I grew up in the 1970s and so love this music. You are reminding me of how good bands like Genesis, Supertramp, The Waterboys etc. were. I'm going back to my vinyl and discovering new rabbit holes to explore.
Thank you for your Bowie call out! Love Bruce as well.
The first time i´ve listened the "Born to Run" albun, it was in 1985, and i got amazed with all entire albun. I could bet that 2 kids born after 1985... :) Very good taste, kids! :)
"Because the Night" is a song written with Patti Smith!
Read the lyrics. It's the most poetic rock song. You'll be so blown away.
I saw Springsteen and the E Street Band in mid 70s on this tour. As complex and as tight as this studio version sounds, the on stage performance was just as tight. It's still unbelievable.
A Rock anthem from maybe one of the best R&R albums of the 20th century.
You have to see Bruce do this live!!
Bruce wrote all the songs on Born to Run on the piano.
The piano scales for "Thunder Road" are mesmerizing.
This song has started so many weekends...
You could "Come Dancing" with Jeff Beck, ride that strange funky jazz.
This was the song that started Bruce’s rise to superstardom. You have entered a rabbit hole that goes all of the way to China.
I bought this abum when i was 10 in 85. You never heard it? And im a thrash metal head. lol. Happy you finaly hear his good music from the 70s.
Played that album so much, I had to buy a second one.
Angst, passion, desire, hope - layers of guitars, sax...and glockenspiel!! "American Rock" is a great way to describe it.
This album was a big inspiration for songwriter/composer Jim Steinman. He wanted to create this type of passionate, dramatic music. Jim wrote many songs (and BIG HITS) for Meat Loaf and Bonnie Tyler, and "Making Love Out Of Nothing At All" for Air Supply.
He was born in 1949, I was 1959 so he would be 26 at the time -- I was sixteen when this was released.
Baby we were to born run..........I was 15 when this song came out.....tramps like us....teenage angst.....loved it then, on my playlist now.❤😎🤘
Here again. Yes The Cure. I love Close to Me for the same reason.
On every song list Bruce always put in BTR.... born to run. His first big hit
Love The Boss! The River will hit you like a ton of bricks with story it tells. Secret Garden, Tunnel of Love, Streets of Philadelphia, Two Faces, Brilliant Disguise, god there are so many amazing songs out there! Can’t wait to see more : )
The Boss!! 🙏🏽✌🏽❤️
