I used to play this for my 7 year old son when this first came out. I told him then, never run away from the police, always keep his hands in sight. Last year while he slept, police crashed into his bedroom, they drew their guns on him because he reached for his glasses in shock and fright. They had the wrong address. My son wasn’t shot. He was one of the lucky ones. And so it goes... I grieve for every mother who lost a son needlessly. Today, back then and sadly, tomorrow. This song should be played and played and played til change is achieved. RIP to all the victims
my mum has loved bruce for 40years and last month she asked me would i like to go to a concert in Australia with her and i was like hes an old man...i went to the concert anyway and now im addicted to this man...he tells a true story in every song he sings.....
It makes me wonder why many conservatives and cops think Bruce would be against social justice And why so many of them are against social justice idk 🤷♂️
Most of us can speak our minds, selectively. Bruce is one of the few *celebrities* who has the stature, and gravitas, to speak out in public. He has been our greatest songwriter/performer for almost five decades, but has become much more. He is a major part of America's conscience.
You should meet my husband, he's English but of Irish Heritage, he speaks his mind and then some, All the Governments of the World he will go toe to toe with and tell them exactly how it is, sorry thing is, they don't listen.
Man if this song doesn't touch and pull your heartstrings and bring moisture to your eyes than you must be an ice cold dead corpse. God bless you Bruce, love this powerful song and its message of equal love and justice, from an Australian fan.

Just read Bruce's autobiography. A great book and fascinating read. Saw the band play a tremendous gig in Glasgow five years back. This guy is an American National Treasure - but then you guys know that 😄
I have always admired Bruce Springsteen's candor and realism in so many of his songs. He has been my favorite performer for many years. I saw him in concert in NY many years ago. The thrill of a lifetime.
You just don't bet it. Its about police being trigger happy especially in the case of Black people . 12 yr old Tamir Rice was not a threat but rather a kid playing in a park. Keith Lamont Scott was sitting in his truck reading a book and was killed by police Sept. 20, 2016. and Terence Crutcher on Sept. 16, 2016 “Tulsa police release footage of officer killing unarmed black man with car trouble” by @PykeA thinkprogress.org/tulsa-police-release-footage-of-officer-killing-unarmed-black-man-with-car-trouble-f1c05e2ba570#.crelk9hwi … #LynchingByCop #BLM. see: “Terence Crutcher was left by the police to bleed and die. It happens a lot.” thinkprogress.org/police-medical-assistance-shootings-f13b85774f85#.4pcnd7tbv … #BlackLivesMatter #LynchingByCop If you have a heart and a conscience then it should break every time someone is gunned down by police as if they have the right to act as prosecutor, judge, jury and executioner. The good cops if they want respect then they should stop supporting Bad Cops . But Cops and their unions and even the DAS and justice sytem tend to label cops who tell the truth as snitches and not loyal to the Blue Bloods who are seen as above the law.
I can’t help but think we came so far from 2000 with Justice Sotomayor on the SCOTUS and her practically copy pasting this song in one of her judgments; but it feels we’re still so far.
The Boss at he’s absolute best.Cant believe how relevant this is still today.Maybe one day the innocent killing will stop.This is still haunting to listen to.Great song.

Literally, tears. I have not been a big fan of this guy, I'm of the hip-hop generation, but I F N LOVE him right now. His new album is awesome and this is touching. God bless you Mr. Springsteen.
What's even better about this song is Bruce addresses both sides in this song. He's always addressed issues head on and understand that situations can be difficult for people on both sides.

When he plays it he dedicates it to people like Amadou Diallo and Trayvon Martin (at the show in this video). The cops in NY booed him over this song. This is a song that CLEARLY takes a side. Bruce understands you don't have to both-sides everything, man; there is an actual bad guy in this situation.
5 years later, still is. No other way to say it: it is beyond fucked up. It will take an effort like nothing before from every single one of us if we ever want this to stop.
Fantastic performance of a great song, there's no other performer can match Bruce for energy, passion, fun, joy, emotion and the rock n roll ecstasy his shows provide to audiences around the globe. Keep on rocking Boss!
Well said. Tragic but TRUE. To all the mothers who have their sons to the American virus of violence-- you are in my prayers. Thanks Boss.....for remembering " some can get killed for just living..... "
I love this man’s music! What talent. The young people coming up have no idea how to do this! His concerts are great! Would love to shake this mans hand
I have been following Bruce since 1976 and have seen him and The ESB in concert so many times. This song is so POWERFUL, it gives me chills and saddens my heart and soul. Topping that off is when Jake stands close to where Big Man (RIP) stood and raised his hand to STOP THE KILLINGS of innocent Black men, women, and children. Yes, there are great police officers, it's the "trigger happy" officers that make the good ones look bad. With that being said, there have just been too many lives taken and this must stop!!! More and longer training of the officers. On another note, going to a Springsteen concert is like going on a rollercoaster ride. The feelings of sadness, pain, despair, hurt, loss, happiness, excitement, on and on. Bruce takes us with him on the "ride" we are all involved. I have met a lot of wonderful, kind, caring, giving people at Bruce's concerts. What we have in common is LOVE and RESPECT for each other and Bruce's music. As Bruce would say: WE TAKE CARE OF OUR OWN
He shook my hand in Belfast show. My life changed forever. I honestly believe there is something spiritual about the guy! He must be a gift from God!!!!
No matter how many times I listen to this song, I still get the chills up my spine, especially in light of the recent, tragic events. Springsteen has an amazing talent in being able to touch people and get the emotion of each song felt by the listener. Simply amazing.

A couple months ago I losty father and I'm 14 so it's been hard.This song is very special cause my father would always play this song for me when I was in a bad mood.
Listened to this song a million times and have cried a million times. It's with great sadness and a heavy heart knowing that after all this time it is even more relevant today. America's legacy won't, hell, it never has been something to celebrate in many respects.
i was more than happy to travel to edinburgh on my birthday to see u .. thanks to the lady that sold me 2 tickets .. boy u rocked edinburgh in saying that the boss rocks anywhere he goes 💝
He played this in Limerick, Ireland last night and dedicated it to Trayvon Martin. You could have heard a pin drop in the stadium when he sang it. Justice for Trayvon!
I was at this concert, it was just as powerful then as it is now. I was pissed at the drunk people screaming when he asked for silence for Trevon. Thank you Bruce.

When you love Bruce's music with your heart so that at the very first bar your heart starts beating in alarm, that's musical love for the rest of your life...
"Muy Feliz año señor Bruce que Dios le de salud y lo proteja siempre ,me hubiese mucho gustado ir algun recital suyo pero no pude, me encanta toda su musica para mi es mi idolo de corazón y perdon a su señora es un hombre bellisimo un groso
I hope and pray that Bruce Springsteen writes another song relates to the memory of RIP George Floyd and other innocent lives that did not have die. First time I heard this song, true meaning of our American skin. Thanks Bruce, your a great music artist one of my favorites. God Bless you Bruce Springsteen.
your voice is almost as powerful as the messages you transmit. no ... your voice is the voice. I'm 43 years old and I dream of seeing you sing. See the integrity that you give off. But I'm so far away, you're inaccessible. Keep singing for those who deserve it. I will continue to worship the boss sorry for my english, Im from Quebec Abitibi... Love your songs
The Boss Man will never die, I am offended that you would ever imply that. And yes, his name is spelled Nils, but that is the best guitar I have ever heard played. Boss Man had it turned up it was so good. Prolly spelled imply wrong.

we CANNOT let this go on... I am with my black brothers and sisters, in tears today after the latest murders of innocents... this is NOT what humanity is about. It cannot be allowed to continue. I KNOW who's side I'm on...together we are ONE.
Robert Rinaldi you need to listen to what he’s talking about, or even read the story of Amadou Diallo, who the song is about. I’ve heard that statistic that white people are shot more by police, but you need to look at the reasons why and if they’re justified or not. Trayvon Martin was killed just for walking with a hoodie on. If you think Zimmerman would’ve done the same to a white kid, you’re sorely mistaken.
Attended this concert. It was a surprise gift from my husband. So glad the had the huge TVs. We sat in the nose bleeds but the concert was so great that it was unforgettable. I remember this song the most. We drove from Miami and it was so worth it.
This is a wonderful song with some very profound lyrics and beautiful, subtle music. This is the first time I've heard it. I'm loving these videos and looking forward to watching a few more. Thanks.
The song is so great. But it's the sincerity of this performance that crept deep under my skin. Amazing arrangement & solo's. IMO, much better than the previously released live version of this song some ten years ago.
In my 71 years I've been to about 150 big time rock concerts. I've seen the Rolling Stones multiple times, including 1969, when they really were the Greatest Rock & Roll Band in the World, The Who, McCartney, REM, the Eagles, the Clash, Tom Petty, Dylan, Neil Young - pretty much everyone who is anyone - and Bruce. We can argue about the greatest living songwriter. Dylan, McCartney, Springsteen, Paul Simon, and a few others, but there is little disagreement about the greatest live performer. Industry insiders - critics, record company execs, promoters, other musicians,- and poll after poll of fans, conducted by Rolling Stone and other publications, consistently rank Bruce as the greatest live performer since the invention of amplification. He's 70 (in April, 2020). I don't know if he'll tour again, but he takes care of himself and played shows as long as four hours three years ago. I suggest that if he does, that you do whatever is necessary to experience one (or more) of his concerts (no two are alike). None of us knows for sure what our last thoughts will be when we're on our deathbeds but I'm quite certain of one thing I will *not* be thinking. "Damn, I saw too many Bruce Springsteen concerts," and I've been to 64.
You should buy his concert dvds. His shows are amazing. Each show highlights a different album so it is worth it to watch them all. Netflix has his Broadway show which is a must see.

They call him the Boss for a reason, once in a generation talent , our generation was the lucky one. Thanks Bruce we love you.
then ya look at what generation Z are listening to these days ...
A masterpiece from an American treasure.
Well said indeed.
As Stephan Colbert called him THE TROUBADOUR OF OUR LIFETIME!

I took my wife to his Auckland concert, he finished the show with this song, we both burst into tears
Age is just a number ;)
It makes me wonder why many conservatives and cops think Bruce would be against social justice
And why so many of them are against social justice idk 🤷♂️
✌️❤️🙏🍀🍻
When you are "ageist" you miss so much. Hope you have learned.
Bruce is one of the few American's who isn't afraid to really speak his mind.
If only I could speak mine half so eloquently...
Most of us can speak our minds, selectively. Bruce is one of the few *celebrities* who has the stature, and gravitas, to speak out in public. He has been our greatest songwriter/performer for almost five decades, but has become much more. He is a major part of America's conscience.
Check John Trudell R.I.P.
You should meet my husband, he's English but of Irish Heritage, he speaks his mind and then some, All the Governments of the World he will go toe to toe with and tell them exactly how it is, sorry thing is, they don't listen.
Kind of like Donald Trump

It's tragic how relevant this song still is almost 20 years after its release. Amazing piece of songwriting
more than ever again.
Amadou 's story absolutely broke my heart. I can't believe the officers were all found not guilty. Devastating.
Bruce is such a talented story-teller.

This song is so beautiful the words give me the chills, this is the terrible times we are living in...
We sang it for Amadou Diallo in 2000. We sang it so many times. Always thinking, "never again". But it happens again and again. This time for Orlando.
It was different in Orlando, it was not Police Brutality, it was citizen attack.
Well said...How many more times are we going to have to do this?!!!!
but ...still killing each other!

This is the 8th time in a row I have listened to this right now, haunting me today. Bruce haunts my heart and soul.
Sometimes, even if you're The Boss, all you can do is scream into the void.
I can’t help but think we came so far from 2000 with Justice Sotomayor on the SCOTUS and her practically copy pasting this song in one of her judgments; but it feels we’re still so far.

It was a wallet. He was pulling out his wallet to show his ID. Hence the "Is it a gun, is it a knife, is it a wallet, this is your life," lyric.
Or possibly what may be going through the mind of the officer.
I love this man’s music! What talent. The young people coming up have no idea how to do this! His concerts are great! Would love to shake this mans hand

Gets better every time I watch, truly amazing song and performance.
Mr. Springsteen thanks for posting this video, I play this song often for my son it reminds him to be watchful and careful.

I have been following Bruce since 1976 and have seen him and The ESB in concert so many times.
This song is so POWERFUL, it gives me chills and saddens my heart and soul.
Topping that off is when Jake stands close to where Big Man (RIP) stood and raised his hand to STOP THE KILLINGS of innocent Black men, women, and children.
Yes, there are great police officers, it's the "trigger happy" officers that make the good ones look bad. With that being said, there have just been too many lives taken and this must stop!!! More and longer training of the officers.
On another note, going to a Springsteen concert is like going on a rollercoaster ride. The feelings of sadness, pain, despair, hurt, loss, happiness, excitement, on and on. Bruce takes us with him on the "ride" we are all involved. I have met a lot of wonderful, kind, caring, giving people at Bruce's concerts. What we have in common is LOVE and RESPECT for each other and Bruce's music.
As Bruce would say: WE TAKE CARE OF OUR OWN
SPRINGSTEENFAN SINCE1976 thank you, i love that! TRAMPS LIKE US
+Mads Grams Very well put! I couldn't agree more.
What about the innocent white men and the innocent police officers who are shot to death?
We take care of our own as a song was meant slightly different.
@@MelinaV88 I know that...its a Bruce saying..Good grief..
This man is perfect in every way , never be bettered , ever

A sad reality all over the world and you, Bruce, sing with a lot of emotion.
Resonates in so many ways!
The key lyric (when it was written and, especially now) is:
IT AIN'T NO SECRET!
The ultimate version of one of the greatest songs of his entire career. Magical!!!
What a powerful song! So very sad that it's just as relevant as ever. You can actually see how emotional Bruce is singing it
I get chills.Bruce is the man
He shook my hand in Belfast show. My life changed forever. I honestly believe there is something spiritual about the guy! He must be a gift from God!!!!
Yup. They don’t make men like they used to.
You're blessed.
No matter how many times I listen to this song, I still get the chills up my spine, especially in light of the recent, tragic events. Springsteen has an amazing talent in being able to touch people and get the emotion of each song felt by the listener. Simply amazing.
9 year anniversary u wrote this comment!
Le final est sublime ! J’ai vu les larmes de Diallo dans les yeux du boss…

Greatest respect for you.
Watching this video made me realize once more: Music is alive, so is hope, so is life. 41 cheers! 41 flowers! To life, to hope, to music.

Bruce for President! Imagine if a man with such passion empathy and courage were to lead our nation
I am Italian, I would like it too, even simply to have people like Springsteen, who are not afraid of taking initiatives
R.I.P to those that lost their life because of their skin. I felt his anger in his voice. This song should be in every protest.
what a deep and poignant place this song comes from
thanks, Bruce
beautiful song,She opened my eyes and I was closed
I hope and pray that Bruce Springsteen writes another song relates to the memory of RIP George Floyd and other innocent lives that did not have die. First time I heard this song, true meaning of our American skin. Thanks Bruce, your a great music artist one of my favorites. God Bless you Bruce Springsteen.
Wonderful song by "the Boss". I love it ;-)
Neils is amazing, I love it when Boss man says go
brad hazen Nils
brad hazen Nils, but yes
brad hazen IT AINT NO SECRET
Fantástico como siempre, eres brillante Bruce 👏 👏 👏 👏
sabe bailar muito bem
Cet homme est juste extraordinaire !!!
He shook my hand in Melbourne March 2013 in concert , since that night i feel Blessed !!
what a powerful performance
your voice is almost as powerful as the messages you transmit. no ... your voice is the voice. I'm 43 years old and I dream of seeing you sing. See the integrity that you give off. But I'm so far away, you're inaccessible. Keep singing for those who deserve it. I will continue to worship the boss sorry for my english, Im from Quebec Abitibi... Love your songs
Masterpiece
The Boss Man will never die, I am offended that you would ever imply that. And yes, his name is spelled Nils, but that is the best guitar I have ever heard played. Boss Man had it turned up it was so good. Prolly spelled imply wrong.
One of my Favorite songs by the boss.. my moms favorite artist.
interesting lyrics.
God Bless America
Moving On
Living legend love him and I'm 22
why isn't this song getting the attention it deserves?

This is one of the best bruce springsteen songs ever. Hopefully ill see you in Chicago in september bruce
we CANNOT let this go on... I am with my black brothers and sisters, in tears today after the latest murders of innocents... this is NOT what humanity is about. It cannot be allowed to continue. I KNOW who's side I'm on...together we are ONE.
Black on black crime you mean? We all matter you human being
Robert Rinaldi you need to listen to what he’s talking about, or even read the story of Amadou Diallo, who the song is about. I’ve heard that statistic that white people are shot more by police, but you need to look at the reasons why and if they’re justified or not. Trayvon Martin was killed just for walking with a hoodie on. If you think Zimmerman would’ve done the same to a white kid, you’re sorely mistaken.
Attended this concert. It was a surprise gift from my husband. So glad the had the huge TVs. We sat in the nose bleeds but the concert was so great that it was unforgettable. I remember this song the most. We drove from Miami and it was so worth it.
This is a wonderful song with some very profound lyrics and beautiful, subtle music. This is the first time I've heard it. I'm loving these videos and looking forward to watching a few more. Thanks.
Awesome man saw him last night in Sydney!!!!!!
Fantastically awesome.
Another excellent live performance from a fantastic concert perfectly performed and done here by Bruce Springsteen....!!!!!!
The song is so great. But it's the sincerity of this performance that crept deep under my skin. Amazing arrangement & solo's. IMO, much better than the previously released live version of this song some ten years ago.
Never in my 50 years have I attended a concert. If I ever do it would be a Bruce Springsteen concert. Love him💜💜💜💜
In my 71 years I've been to about 150 big time rock concerts. I've seen the Rolling Stones multiple times, including 1969, when they really were the Greatest Rock & Roll Band in the World, The Who, McCartney, REM, the Eagles, the Clash, Tom Petty, Dylan, Neil Young - pretty much everyone who is anyone - and Bruce.
We can argue about the greatest living songwriter. Dylan, McCartney, Springsteen, Paul Simon, and a few others, but there is little disagreement about the greatest live performer. Industry insiders - critics, record company execs, promoters, other musicians,- and poll after poll of fans, conducted by Rolling Stone and other publications, consistently rank Bruce as the greatest live performer since the invention of amplification.
He's 70 (in April, 2020). I don't know if he'll tour again, but he takes care of himself and played shows as long as four hours three years ago. I suggest that if he does, that you do whatever is necessary to experience one (or more) of his concerts (no two are alike). None of us knows for sure what our last thoughts will be when we're on our deathbeds but I'm quite certain of one thing I will *not* be thinking. "Damn, I saw too many Bruce Springsteen concerts," and I've been to 64.
Tina Marie It’s the only one you’ll ever need to see. I hope we all get to again.
Amen
You should buy his concert dvds. His shows are amazing. Each show highlights a different album so it is worth it to watch them all. Netflix has his Broadway show which is a must see.
@@CPSJSMSUUMUGA putssss agora vou morrer de inveja... gostaria muiiiiiito de ir pelo menos um show antes do meu último suspiro 🤔😢🎸🎤💘💘💘💘💘 só isso que EU peço 🙏🙏🙏🙏
FANTASTICO Bruce......the best.
"You can get killed just for living" . What a message! Still relevant after all these years!
