This version conveys the emotions of the lyrics much better than the popular version.

[@miconis123]

True. People missed the sarcasm of the popular release due to the strong beat and such.

the fuck it does

Far more appropriate version of the song, considering the content.

[@LB20005]

Always my favorite version; thanks for posting. Such a different feel than what made it to the album.

[@zakarem]

it was so loooooong damn time 'n' i'm looking for this version,, THANK YOU MAN

[@dreamgirl4612]

Soooooooo much better than the album version. Love it

[@aljabirxiju9475]

pfft

[@jambokaos]

Same riff as CCR's Run Through The Jungle

[@shanedude91]

Way better than the popular version.

[@Xylot]

I consider this the more *honest* version of the song. The later version is cynical and sarcastic, and I love it for that, but this one just feels more honest and open.

[@aljabirxiju9475]

this is just as poppy...so get over yourself. always some contrarian who will tell you they prefer "new coke" lol

[@MJKmedia]

I wonder if anyone has tried this arrangement with a full band. I think it would work well with drums and full band.

[@agentsmith4763]

MJKmedia yeah but this version has that mean ass Cajun vibe

[@sjoseph001]

Awesome - equal to the original, which itself is an amazing song.

[@lesmariestewart1162]

interesting this was presented to the producer then he added to it and transformed it into what we know today!

[@amylivingston4590]

Oh no, Springsteen made the decision to change it himself. It went through several versions. Check out this NPR story about it: www.npr.org/2019/03/26/706566556/bruce-springsteen-born-in-the-usa-american-anthem

[@haysfordays]

@@amylivingston4590 good piece. thank you.

[@yxnd379]

I Have To Say But Born in the U.S.A. Is More Appropriate For Nebraska

[@HEYitzED]

I like this version much better.

[@ulissesbraga-neto7651]

The popular version features Springsteen's distinctive singing voice much better. It's actually hard for me to compare them, since this is a folk song, the other one is a rock song.

[@LB20005]

...both are good but for different reasons. If I could play guitar, this is the version I'd play.

[@trfesok]

now on "Tracks"...

[@paulsaad7153]

Is that springsteen doing the falsetto?

[@agentsmith4763]

This is great fucking shit

[@southwriter]

Why doesn't somebody put up the classic rocking version from 1985, instead of this sucky version, and a thousand differnt concert versions?? Geez!!

[@piombenedetto61]

Because this is more interesting, moron

[@djhero0071]

You don’t understand the point of the song then.

[@hanleyk]

Son, don't you understand?

[@anelladambrosio2513]

Ma che dici! E solo diversa! 🤫🤔🤨😯🤫

[@whenfatkillsfat803]

Go play in traffic, Cletus.
