I’m a 63 year old male. Typically unemotional ex-military etc. etc. I’ve been a fan of Bruce Springsteen since I was a teenager and he never fails to reduce me to tears with the sheer emotional brilliance of his work. Thank you Bruce..
Bruce is a legend. We used to drive into the middle of no where and lie in a field and smoke a joint. We put his music up loud and watched the stars and all giggled. Good times. 20 odd years ago, when life was less complicated and we all had feelings.
Melissa/Missy and I were friends, in Leavenworth, when we were both 15. We were in the same performance group, the same youth group, and we were did "Godspell" together - she played lead-guitar, and I played the "floozy" character ... SO much fun! We knew, then, that she was going places. I got to see her again, 3 years ago, when she played at the Oregon State Fair ... I got to invite several of my children to meet back-stage, prior to the show. She's as real as she seems to be. Pure gold heart.
Melissa Etheridge is one of my biggest inspirations! She taught me to always be myself and to always understand people will be people and life will be life. I’ve been singing since I was a kid, and I have never stopped! She always stuck to me, definitely plan to perform some of her music in karaoke Life is difficult, and I have been going through the wringer but my first thought is MELISSA!
I’m 22, and just got into Bruce Springsteen a month or two ago, and since I don’t think I’ve really listened to anything else. I can’t stop. I would have loved being around back when he was first out...my peers don’t know this magic
Carolina - start with his first album and work your way through them. Born to run is his masterpiece imho, one of the great albums of the 20th century. I have it on CD (remaster, original pressing), on LP (2 x 45 rpm half speed masters and a standard master) and love it to bits.
Carolina Grey - - - “ …Roll down the window And let the wind blow back your hair …” Yes. Yes. Enjoy that Ride Kiddo!! Hopefully he & the band come back on tour (after Broadway) . . . You get ur butt to a show . . . You willNot regret it. Ever. His concerts are full of Ɑℓℓ generations/ages-(down to 4-6 y.o.’s !) Hope ya have Fun. Peace. Love. And Rock’N’Roll !!
This is my favorite Bruce song of all time. I cannot tell you how many times I have put in on full blast with the liner notes and sung this song as loud as I could with tears streaming down my face. This is a song about youth and the great journey ahead but as an older man, it is also about the journey taken and just how special it is to have such a gorgeous song to bookend a life well lived.
This was an unbelievably AWESOME blend of two excellent voices / harmonies by two of the very best singers. Thank you for this amazing rendition of one of the best songs ever.
One of my favorite Springsteen songs and this duet is simply magic. The last time I saw Bruce in concert was in the Olympic Stadium in Berlin, Germany in 2016. Bruce came out alone with his acoustic guitar for the 2nd encore and played this song. Just Bruce and 65,000 fans, yet it felt like he was singing this song only to each an every one of us. It brought tears to my eyes.
My first "Bruce" concert was in Munich Germany, 1985 'BORN IN THE USA ' Tour...... Special Thanks to my Brother-in-law Barry for turning me on to BRUCE.... and taking me to my first Springsteen concert, for my Birthday....
Me in May, having watched all the posts from his latest tour in Ireland and the U.K. This popped up after listening to Thunder Road played in Ireland. I’ve watched it before, so l know it’s a good mixture of voices. Bruce is such a kind and supportive man. But fast forward to 2012 in Hyde Park London and it is Bruce’s turn to be very excited to have HIS hero, Paul McCartney, on stage and singing with him!❤❤❤❤❤❤
What a version of one of the greatest story songs ever written, everyone should have at least one "roll down the window and let the wind blow back your hair" feeling in their lives x
There are a couple of even more, equally meaningful lines in this song. They paint a full canvas of the tremendious diverse and challenging life - the American/western life-style, a structure, I can still identify with today. They are about all the Drama, risks, courage, desires and determination, that does envelope itself tightly around the tough process of 'growing up and making a living in small-town US'. Its one more powerful ballade by Springsteen - - - texting about rather sad and desperate scenes, --> but in the end these songs rather seem to empower us more and accept that struggle and take up the challenge ... its ".. no time for loosers we pulling out to win!" It s indeed a song from a different time - no 'woke wise-cracking' or 'stylish Tik-Tok show off' come here into play. Rather leave me behind with a sad nostalgic feeling of the old times of 🎵"Those were the Days of '69 🎵". 😢
Love that purist of pleasures on what is one of the most beautifully written songs of all time. My daughter came to me and said sing that lie lie song and hold me like a baby when she was 5 that song was The Boxer that was our lullaby so this made me smile like my face would split
Melissa tells a story about that line in one of her RUclips videos. She specifically asked Bruce if she could sing that line as she had just come out and thought the line was symbolic. Bruce agreed, but then during the first take, which was perfect, she forgot to come in, so they had to re-record the song. If you watch the video, she almost forgets to come in again, and Bruce looks at her and smiles, and then she leans over and makes a comment about how she almost messed up again.
@@robbbbbie12 she actually forgets in this version too, but realizes it when he looks at her. She comes in late, and he holds the chord (I don’t know what note it is) until the word “climb”, where he changes notes again. I think the emphasis when he changes is his reaction a la “that’s it”. In my opinion, that actually makes this even better, because it shows two masters making music in real time. It’s those small hiccups that make live music awesome!
My dad introduced me to Bruce’s music when I was young and it took me until I was about 12 to truly appreciate his music . I’m 19 now and I’m still listening.
I remember watching this live and was so blown away. Felt like a very special moment in music history. I come back and rewatch it every few years and I am still blown away every time.
what does it mean that i cried through this whole masterpiece, the words and music carrying my heart back in time and into a brilliant and thrilling future..
I am one massive goosebump. When Melissa sings"Mary climb in", damn! I feel so blessed to have Bruce on the planet at the same time as me. No other musician can move me as he does.
I am 65 and have been a Springsteen France since I was 19 and am so happy to have come across this version with Melissa, pure gold. Thanks to you both x
amen to that jane griffiths, amazing rendition of TR here on acoustics... Mel..Bruce.. die-hard fan of both and find comfort in their music but this cut is something special...
Well I have been listening to Thunder Road for over 30 years and I still think its the greatest song ever written. Its going to be the last song before they close the lid!
Saw Springsteen in concert in 1974 and have been a fan ever since. But this duet puts a whole new light on one of my favorite songs. Keep rockin on . Peace
I saw him in Mobile, AL, on his Born to Run tour. At 7:55, the band was on stage tuning up. At 8:01, Bruce came out, and they didn't stop for 4 hours. Best concert ever, and I've seen hundreds.
My girlfriend is due to have twins this coming spring...so weird that I’d stumble upon your comment at this time. Hope all is well with you and your family
Tears well in my eyes every time I hear the line "What else can we do now, except roll down the window and let the wind blow back your hair?". It's such a beautiful, carefree, triumphant line full of youthful energy and hope. We don't know where this adventure is going to take us, but we'll never find out if we don't take that first step, that leap of faith into the unknown..... Bruce Springsteen is a treasure.
Incredible. Undeniably, one of the best songs of all time. The song never gets old. Regardless of your state of mind, the song will always make you feel better about life.
This is perfect! Hope to see Bruce again soon on EU tour, his concerts fill up my tank and its like hitting reset button on all the negatives and only positives remain. Its really one of a kind experience.
Fell in love with The Boss' music when I was 19 driving to the army service every weekend listening to the Born in the USA album on tape because it touched my soul. The love with his music only grew throughout my life and now some 30+ yrs later I feel it touching deeper then ever. Bruce, you will always be the Best for me.
It is indeed a fabulous version of this song. I go back to it often. You have great taste, taping it off the TV back then and treasuring it. Etheridge and Springsteen are both great and their voices go together perfectly.
'I know it's late, we can make it if we run' I have loved Bruce's music for 40 years, especially this song, and this line has urged me forward whenever I thought I was too old for new adventures. It still does, and I'm 65. Thanks Bruce!
First of all I'm not looking to get into a conversation with a bunch of Millenials who seem to have nothing better to do than surf the internet looking for a conversation to hijack no matter who might be or have been involved and I'm getting tired of getting dragged back in to month or older conversations that I made a comment in and then forgot about because it wasn't all that important to me that I care about and I really am getting tired of you do nothing Millenials intruding into my life like you have a right to which I'm here to tell you that you don't have the right to enter into my life without my permission and if you don't understand why then maybe I'll start going off on any one of you who thinks you do and I promise you I will have balls enough to tell you exactly how I feel about you and your rudeness in no uncertain terms
I first heard Melissa Etheridge when I was queuing to buy a cd, it was playing over the sound system in the music shop. It was a long queue and I was absolutely blown away by the music, it was 'Your Little Secret'. When I got to the check out I bought a copy of that cd as well. That was over 20 years ago and I still have the cd and I still love it. I happened across this youtube contribution in much the same way, I was looking for something and happened across this. I thought I'd give it a listen and was absolutely blown away again. Two voices working together in perfection. It has given me a shudder of delight in a way that music hasn't done for quite some time and brought a few tears to my eye due to the memories that Thunder Road has brought back. Thank you Melissa Etheridge and Bruce Springsteen for singing this together and thank you to Maria Ramalho for posting it here.
I have just been reduced to tears... such a simply moving performance of one my favourite songs of all time, and have been touched every single emotion in one song. Phenomenal! thank you for sharing this
Two of the worlds greatest talents, on the stage together. This is the ROCK Mecca. I've watched it a thousand times and hope to live to watch it a thousand more.
Oh man, I hope this sent you checking out Melissa. She's incredible. Been a fan since her first album and she's so great live. A genuine storyteller and gifted performer.
In 50 years time....some young kids will find this video and say "Holy shit.....that is good.." then they'll look for more of the same....this music never dies
Listening in 2018, brings nostalgia of youth back to me. Bruce had done a great show in Netflix where he filled in the context of these songs, The Boss and his songs never dies.
I was at a Springsteen concert in DC (one of many that I have attended). Some people on the first tier unfurled a banner that said "lesbians love Bruce." He yelled back "I love you, too." A man and a poet of love of humanity. He has written and performed so many great songs. And Etheridge, "You Can Sleep While I Drive" is such a great love song. Love to them both. The best.
4/1/2019 just watched this performance again. I am not going to lie it tore me up because when I was young this was my feel good music and artists! B.S. and M.Etheridge together was stellar!
I have always been a fan of Bruce springsteen's music and poetry. He has always been an amazing story teller . Melissa Etridge's love and respect for him and his music, only mirrors my own love and respect for him . Trully amazing performance!
Thanks for the love and support . I decided to take out time today out of my busy schedule to get close to my fans and know their thoughts towards my career and I came across you through my official RUclips CHANNEL insight...
Don’t know how many times I’ve watched this video. Many times. But still gives me goosebumps. Both these artists have saved my life at different times in my life. Blessed to see this again
This is the best version of Thunder Road, and the best duet ever ...

I am 70+ listing since 40+ years. Keep listening to this wonderful writer/singer. Most of his works are just mind-blowing.

It's amazing and never gets old. Really brings you back.

Saw Bruce 1975 in a smallish theater in Norfolk, VA. Row 8. Fxxxxxx awesome.
She’s great
First heard his music as a 14 yo in 1972. It's been a life changing ride.

Carolina Grey Nebraska, The River, Born to Run and Tunnel of Love, in my opinion Bruce’s best albums.
the ghost of tom joad is really good too imho!

Yes
There are a couple of even more, equally meaningful lines in this song.
They paint a full canvas of the tremendious diverse and challenging life - the American/western life-style, a structure, I can still identify with today. They are about all the Drama, risks, courage, desires and determination, that does envelope itself tightly around the tough process of 'growing up and making a living in small-town US'.
Its one more powerful ballade by Springsteen - - - texting about rather sad and desperate scenes, --> but in the end these songs rather seem to empower us more and accept that struggle and take up the challenge ... its ".. no time for loosers we pulling out to win!"
It s indeed a song from a different time - no 'woke wise-cracking' or 'stylish Tik-Tok show off' come here into play. Rather leave me behind with a sad nostalgic feeling of the old times of 🎵"Those were the Days of '69 🎵". 😢
I saw Bruce live in Detroit, the man was on stage for 3 hours non stop, one of the best live shows I've ever seen.
I sang this as a lullaby to my daughter...she's in her late 20's now. She was about two at the time and would say "sing the slams..."
Love that purist of pleasures on what is one of the most beautifully written songs of all time. My daughter came to me and said sing that lie lie song and hold me like a baby when she was 5 that song was The Boxer that was our lullaby so this made me smile like my face would split

Bruce is one of those singers that is pure magic. Alone or with someone else. Down to earth and humble.

One of my all times favorite Bruce song
Hello to all Bruce fans !
Im almost 59. saw bruce at wembley stadium when i was 24 with my brother and sister... Thunder road, one of the greatest songs ever written.
I am almost 58, was lucky enough to see him when I was 18 - in a hall that took only 5 000 persons. Amazing!
I’m nearly 57. I saw Bruce at Wembley in 2024. Magic. I am an Australian, I visited UK for
She has the perfect voice for this duet with him. I can't think of another female singer who could have pulled it off as well.
I was 12 when I dropped the needle on side one of the"Born To Run."...that was it..Never listened to music the same way again, Thank you Bruce.
That's all there is to say.
Dr shahid masood
I was 11 heard Born In The USA on my camp councelor's headphones. That was it for me.
I had just turned 15 when I first heard this album - it changed my life.

This particular rendition has become one of my favorite songs. When we look back at the 80s-90s, this'll be one of the stand outs.
THUNDER ROAD
..... One of the biggest songs of the BOSS. Saw him & E-Street in a couple of times. This is almost pretty beautiful.....
My dad introduced me to Bruce’s music when I was young and it took me until I was about 12 to truly appreciate his music . I’m 19 now and I’m still listening.
I'm a 45 year old man and this is one of the few performances that can actually bring me to tears.
I am 62..and I feel the same man!! no shame!!
I was there when Bruce was just not the "Boss" yet!!
67. Ditto.
I'm 66 years old and I'm crying right now

Feels good to see Bruce giving this his all to give ME the experience of her dreams ... sending Mad LOVE, Bruce❤

Absolutely ! 🎶🎸🙏
This is so fantastic! One of Bruce´s greatest songs and he shares it with Melissa. I love it!

Hadn't seen/heard this before, just stumbled on it. Wow. Their voices were made to be together. Beautiful rendition of a great song.
I actually taped this live on a VHS tape I still have. Happy to see it on u-tube...one of my favorite versions of this song and I treasure it!
It is indeed a fabulous version of this song. I go back to it often. You have great taste, taping it off the TV back then and treasuring it. Etheridge and Springsteen are both great and their voices go together perfectly.
'I know it's late, we can make it if we run' I have loved Bruce's music for 40 years, especially this song, and this line has urged me forward whenever I thought I was too old for new adventures. It still does, and I'm 65. Thanks Bruce!
First of all I'm not looking to get into a conversation with a bunch of Millenials who seem to have nothing better to do than surf the internet looking for a conversation to hijack no matter who might be or have been involved and I'm getting tired of getting dragged back in to month or older conversations that I made a comment in and then forgot about because it wasn't all that important to me that I care about and I really am getting tired of you do nothing Millenials intruding into my life like you have a right to which I'm here to tell you that you don't have the right to enter into my life without my permission and if you don't understand why then maybe I'll start going off on any one of you who thinks you do and I promise you I will have balls enough to tell you exactly how I feel about you and your rudeness in no uncertain terms
@@jeffyoder8105 What the hell are you talking about?
WOW....................First time I heard that!!! That was amazing!
I first heard Melissa Etheridge when I was queuing to buy a cd, it was playing over the sound system in the music shop. It was a long queue and I was absolutely blown away by the music, it was 'Your Little Secret'. When I got to the check out I bought a copy of that cd as well. That was over 20 years ago and I still have the cd and I still love it.
I happened across this youtube contribution in much the same way, I was looking for something and happened across this. I thought I'd give it a listen and was absolutely blown away again. Two voices working together in perfection. It has given me a shudder of delight in a way that music hasn't done for quite some time and brought a few tears to my eye due to the memories that Thunder Road has brought back. Thank you Melissa Etheridge and Bruce Springsteen for singing this together and thank you to Maria Ramalho for posting it here.
Best performance I've seen this year - always loved the song but just stumbled on this duet.
I have just been reduced to tears... such a simply moving performance of one my favourite songs of all time, and have been touched every single emotion in one song. Phenomenal! thank you for sharing this
Two of the worlds greatest talents, on the stage together.
This is the ROCK Mecca.
I've watched it a thousand times and hope to live to watch it a thousand more.
you and me both
Never heard of Melissa before this. The harmonies Melissa brings with her voice and guitar. Is nothing short of breathtaking.
Oh man, I hope this sent you checking out Melissa. She's incredible. Been a fan since her first album and she's so great live. A genuine storyteller and gifted performer.
😅😮😢🎉😂
OH MY GOD this was so good. Their incredible voices fulfill and complete each other to make it PERFECT.
If there was ever a definition for "Happy tears" this is it ! I'm tearing and I'm just so emotional when I view and listen to this
How am I just finding this today? I love them both and this is perfection. Can they do a whole concert together, singing each other's songs please?
In 50 years time....some young kids will find this video and say "Holy shit.....that is good.." then they'll look for more of the same....this music never dies
OldMan MTB sadly probably sooner,good luck mate.
Absolutely!!! They'll ask what the heck an 8-track is too then what in the world is a tape!! Lol!!!
Listening in 2018, brings nostalgia of youth back to me. Bruce had done a great show in Netflix where he filled in the context of these songs, The Boss and his songs never dies.
OldMan MTB
The band
Let's hope so! We keep it alive!
They both seem to genuinely appreciate and enjoy each other. Two greats making something truly magical. Love it.
Hi ,how are you doing,how is the weather today?,happy new month of december
Moved to tears, saw Melissa live a few years ago in Melbourne with Cheryl Crow, she is fantastic
I was at a Springsteen concert in DC (one of many that I have attended). Some people on the first tier unfurled a banner that said "lesbians love Bruce." He yelled back "I love you, too." A man and a poet of love of humanity. He has written and performed so many great songs. And Etheridge, "You Can Sleep While I Drive" is such a great love song. Love to them both. The best.
Not too many songs have life-changing versions played either Live, Acoutstic, via Piano solo, or Studio that all leave you breathless! Mercy!
listening on my ipods 😂 still amazing to this day. Thank you!
She knocks it out of the park!!!What a moment for her...beautiful performance.
Bruce's songs, keep me going. Thank you.
This song has such amazing, perfect empathy and bathos. A great version, had me in tears from start to end.
I get the chills every time I hear this. Easily my favorite duet - ever!
4/1/2019 just watched this performance again. I am not going to lie it tore me up because when I was young this was my feel good music and artists! B.S. and M.Etheridge together was stellar!
Been listening to the boss from 1976 I’m 53 now and still love this. This is real music not like todays drivel
big bruce fan, when she starts singing the opening verse, got the chills, amazing
I have always been a fan of Bruce springsteen's music and poetry. He has always been an amazing story teller . Melissa Etridge's love and respect for him and his music, only mirrors my own love and respect for him . Trully amazing performance!
Que duo mas majobhdcevedydvpstfjsxdfcgog
I love the way he meets her vocally as an equal, a true duet, very graceful.
Fabulous! Even 30 years later! Lucky enough to be around when these two were regulars on the radio!
Thanks for the love and support . I decided to take out time today out of my busy schedule to get close to my fans and know their thoughts towards my career and I came across you through my official RUclips CHANNEL insight...
Hi ,how are you doing,how is the weather today?,happy new month of december
Don’t know how many times I’ve watched this video. Many times. But still gives me goosebumps. Both these artists have saved my life at different times in my life. Blessed to see this again
2024 heard him Carrier Dome 1982. So great ❤ I was 22. Now 64 still rock out in my power wheelchair with my grandkids.😊
Oh wow 🤩 that was an awesome duet.
as I get older, Bruce's music becomes more and more meaningful to me
Cor Williams Yeah, it happens like that.
