    Actually, this is one of the deepests and emotional songs of Bruce. The lyrics are almost a cry for help.

    John's voice is beautiful enough to make grown man cry.
    That has to be one of the best remakes of a song I've ever heard

    Almost six years later and this rendition still gives me chills.

    What struck me the most - was how Legend brought the inner feel of the song out. Dancing in the Dark is a great song. John just proved it. While we're at it - have there ever been more poignant lyrics that have resonated with so many people - as - _I want to change my clothes, my hair, my face._ Incredible insight - in the middle of a song.

    I...... never actually understood the lyrics till I heard this version. I never thought this song could make me feel sad, like a beautiful sadness, but still sad.

    I will always love Bruce Springsteen's original. With that said, John Legend's cover is AMAZING!

      He should have a separate show devoted to music - but doubt that will happen, he's busy enough.

      he pretty much created the whole acoustic genre of bands just playing in the 80s. What's even more amazing is most of these are before 9am

    Only an artist of magnitude can make something perfect even more beautiful; a proper homage to the The Boss. John Legend is already legendary.

    When Legend started throwing it down at 2:21...all I could do was close my eyes and take in the purity of his voice. Dude is the f’ing sh*t!

  • @dannyfisher8382
    @dannyfisher8382 4 года назад +21

    Ah man. John Legend is as appropriate a name for an artist as it gets. He made it his own, without completely changing the soul of the song. The mark of a true of a true artist.

    When he said " my Springsteen friends" I felt so jealous. I wish I had Springsteen friends so there could be someone to understand my massive musical crush for him. :(
