    Amazing how you can love a song then hear someone new sing it and it gives you a completely different look on the meaning of the song ...legit:-
    The boss= proper geezer in denim dancing in the dark near some fire with a few birds about
    Fender=clearly man desperately looking for love

      Two different interpretations, equally valid. Bruce is feisty and raring to get out of his funk. Sam is more contemplative, and melancholy. Damn, what a great song.

    Finally sat down to listen to this guy after hearing the name rolling around (I'm mid 30's and reaching that age when new music flies by already).
    First listen to Seventeen Going Under and I got immediate Springsteen vibes. He's obviously a big fan and it's throughout his music and tone. This was a terrific cover that still has his own touch.
    I'd be happy for this lad to stick around and make some more great tunes.

    I know nearly everyone knows bruce’s lyrics but just for anyone that doesnt ⬇️
    I get up in the evening
    And I ain't got nothing to say
    I come home in the morning
    I go to bed feeling the same way
    I ain't nothing but tired
    Man I'm just tired and bored with myself
    Hey there baby, I could use just a little help
    You can't start a fire
    You can't start a fire without a spark
    This gun's for hire
    Even if we're just dancing in the dark
    Messages keep getting clearer
    Radio's on and I'm moving 'round my place
    I check my look in the mirror
    Wanna change my clothes, my hair, my face
    Man I ain't getting nowhere
    I'm just living in a dump like this
    There's something happening somewhere
    Baby I just know there is
    Can't start a fire
    You can't start a fire without a spark
    This gun's for hire
    Even if we're just dancing in the dark
    You sit around getting older
    There's a joke, here somewhere and it's on me
    I shake this world off my shoulders
    Come on baby the laugh's on me
    Stay on the streets of this town
    And they'll be carving you up alright
    They say you gotta stay hungry
    Hey baby I'm just about starving tonight
    I'm dying for some action
    I'm sick of sitting 'round here trying to write this book
    I need a love reaction
    Come on now baby gimme just one look
    Can't start a fire sitting 'round crying over a broken heart
    This gun's for hire
    Even if we're just dancing in the dark
    You can't start a fire worrying about your little world falling apart
    This gun's for hire
    Even if we're just dancing in the dark
    Even if we're just dancing in the dark
    Even if we're just dancing in the dark
    Even if we're just dancing in the dark
    Hey baby

    So many people in the music bizz have never acknowledged their influences. Fair play to Sam for doing so - class.

    I've loved the boss all my 38 years of life, and I've loved Sam Fender since he started releasing his amazing music. Go ed Sam! You are the mutts

    I get up in the evenin'
    And I ain't got nothin' to say
    I come home in the mornin'
    I go to bed feelin' the same way
    I ain't nothin' but tired
    Man, I'm just tired and bored with myself
    Hey there, baby, I could use just a little help
    You can't start a fire
    You can't start a fire without a spark
    This gun's for hire
    Even if we're just dancin' in the dark
    Messages keeps gettin' clearer
    Radio's on and I'm movin' 'round my place
    I check my look in the mirror
    Wanna change my clothes, my hair, my face
    Man, I ain't gettin' nowhere
    I'm just livin' in a dump like this
    There's somethin' happenin' somewhere
    Baby, I just know that there is
    You can't start a fire
    You can't start a fire without a spark
    This gun's for hire
    Even if we're just dancin' in the dark
    You sit around gettin' older
    There's a joke here somewhere and it's on me
    I'll shake this world off my shoulders
    Come on, baby, the laugh's on me
    Stay on the streets of this town
    And they'll be carvin' you up alright
    They say you gotta stay hungry
    Hey baby, I'm just about starvin' tonight
    I'm dyin' for some action
    I'm sick of sittin' 'round here tryin' to write this book
    I need a love reaction
    Come on now, baby, gimme just one look.
