Bruce won an academy award for the song for the movie and spoke out strongly , supporting people with AIDS back when it was it was a risk to do so.

They had a few reservation police that rode these enormous quarter horses and they came through the camping area a few times a day just to let people know if they were there if somebody needed anything. But they never interfered or bothering anyone. And there was no need for any police. Try that at all hard rock or heavy-metal concert! LOL you would have fights at those concerts with 10 people much less 110,000 people.

Clarence Clemons and Bruce Springsteen shared a bond stronger than blood.

If you like Bruce, you should pay attention to this year's Olympics. His daughter, who he had with his wife Patti Scialfa, who is also in his band, is competing in the equestrian events. She's a horsewoman. The family has a farm in New Jersey with horses where she grew up.

The sax player is the late great Clarence Clemons. The girl dancing with him is Courtney Cox (from Friends)…this was a huge hit for him.

This is the official music video, produced for the Born In The USA album, which shot him to superstar status. It was a produced video, so choreography and all that. He was very popular before this album, but this took him to astounding levels. In my opinion, all of Bruce Springsteen and the E-Street Band's albums before and including this one were amazing. I just think he lost a step after this, album wise; however, he always put on a spectacular live show. Yes, that was Courtney Cox. For a real look at young Bruce, watch the Rosalita live performance.

I love watching y'all, all these songs are my jam! These are completely in my wheelhouse. Lol I answer all your questions (I have known all but 1 answer so far lol) and my dogs are enjoying "momma" explaining stuff to them. Carry on and be excellent!

I'm somewhere in this audience--somewhere in the nosebleed seats. The video was filmed during the "Born In The USA" tour in 1984 at a stop in Saint Paul, MN.

Born to Run is actually a 70s song but the video was from the 80s. in case youre wondering.

Yes, that was Courtney Cox. Bruce's first two albums were both released in 1973. His first really successful album was the great Born to Run released in 1975. This song is from his magnificent Born in the U.S.A. album, released in 1984 and was the one where the man known as "The Boss" finally got the attention he deserved. My personal favorite is The Rising, released in 2002. His most recent album is Letter to You, released last year. That's right, he's been making albums for nearly half a century. Most of his albums were recorded with the E Street Band and collectively they are often called Bruce Springsteen & The E Street Band. The E Street Band has been around since before Springsteen's first album and many of its members have been with the band for multiple decades and they have worked with many other successful artists and released music of their own as well. Bruce's wife, Patty Scialfa, is a member of the band. Two of the original members, Danny Federici and Clarence "Big Man" Clemons have passed away. Clarence was the sax player on both songs to which you have reacted. His nephew, Jake Clemons, is now the saxophone player with the band. You could spend a couple of months just reacting to Springsteen songs; you can pick one at random and the odds are it will be great. But the one I love the most is "The Rising," told from the perspective of a firefighter trying to rescue people in the towers on 9/11. Another great song off his most recent album is "Ghosts." And this isn't even beginning to scratch the surface of what he has created.

Did you know the guy who played Silvio on the Sopranos is the guitar player for Springsteen? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steven_Van_Zandt The guy who wears the banda if you see him. Also, the drummer Max Weinberg was the orchestra leader for the tonight show for many years. Bruce I think pretty much had the same band members his entire career. He started in the early 70's and I believe his break out song was "Rosaltita."The Sax player died a few years ago of natural causes. it's also rumoured but I can't confirm Bon Jovi was a roadie for him in the 70's.

The reason he’s called The Boss is often mistaken for his talent like Elvis was crowned the King of Rock ‘n’ Roll and Michael Jackson christened the Prince of Pop. The real reason he was called The Boss is because the E-Street Band were all employees of his. This was not a “group” like Def Leppard or the Rolling Stones. Must be a New Jersey thing, because Bon Jovi is not a group either. All the musicians work for John Bon Jovi, and both Bruce and John are Jersey guys.

One of best songs of bruce, for me is "paradise" very incredible deep lirycs. Good sunday 😉😉😉

It’s a deep catalog. Thunder Road and Rosalita is a good place to go next!

His concerts are legend and he is one of America’s greatest storytellers. I saw him during the Born in the USA tour. 4 hours! It’s Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band. There’s a recent (this year) Spotify podcast with Springsteen and Barack Obama on their new joint venture.

me too ! five encores !

Have a lot of Bruce's music. All great and this is one of my favorites

Born to Run was Bruce's first hit, but the video is of him singing the song when he was older. Dancing... came later, on his mega-hit album Born in the USA. Fun song! And yes, that was Courtney Cox, in the video that made her famous.

Loved this song that featured Courtney Cox when it came out in 1984. Bruce's music career actually goes back to early 70s

Always my favorite Bruce song!!

Clarence!!! RIP. 🎷

I said it before and I'll say it again: Rosalita. TRUST ME.

100% Agree

Sax player is LEGENDARY Clarence Clemons.

☆LONG LIVE THE 80'S☆

The sax player was Clarence Clemens, who had a very close friendship with Springsteen right up until his tragic passing. Since then Clarence's son has played sax with Bruce on some occasions.

Bruce Springstein's "Streets of Philadelphia" is a must.

You guys need to check out “the rising” by Bruce!! He wrote it after 9/11 and sang it at a fundraising concert for 9/11.

Now you gotta watch Blinded By The Light movie, just released. It features Bruce's music set to an incredible story.

Clarence Anicholas Clemons Jr. (January 11, 1942 - June 18, 2011), also known as The Big Man, was an American musician and actor. From 1972 until his death in 2011, he was the saxophonist for Bruce Springsteen and The E Street Band.

1984 is the time period of this video. Man, we miss Clarence "Big Man" Clements, one of the best sax players ever.

"You can't start a fire worried 'bout your little world falling apart" .....T-Shirt worthy for sure.

That's a life lesson for sure. The Indigo Girls have a similar viewpoint in "Watershed": 'standing at the fork in the road, you can agonize until your agony is your heaviest load".

You cannot go wrong with "The Boss" Bruce Springsteen playing anything. He wrote a song called "Fire" that The Pointer Sisters did and made famous. That is Ms. Cox, the sax player Clarence has unfortunately passed away

This is one of his best love love the lyrics

This song came out years after "Born to Run." The "Born to Run" video you reacted to was from a much later concert. By the way, I've been to dozens of concerts and Bruce is still the best live act.

Who knew that Bruce could do “The Carlton”. Or was Carlton doing “The Bruce “?

Alfonso Ribeiro stole the dance from this video. There's an interview out there where he says this. So, Carlton is doing "The Bruce".

It's not unusual..

The saxofon player was Clarence Clemens "the big man", he was from the San Francisco Bay Area, and in the late eighties he played at a local club on a Sunday afternoon "Sweetwater", sadly he died some years back.

I love your channel because you two represent the virtue of humility, as you gave recognition to the greats ,I salute you ,sir and maam

This brings back my youth so muuuuch....it was just so fun...the music we had made it that way😁😁😁😁...next try "I'm on fire " by Bruce Springsteen R.I.P Clarence

This was Bruce trying to reinvent himself a bit, the time period where he married model/actress Julianne Phillips, worked out, the dancing, and wrote this very pop song which he knew would be a hit, the album was #1. This was after the very dark self-recorded album Nebraska he did without the band where he played all the instruments (which still hit #3).

Most of the songs on Born in the USA were "electric" versions of songs demoed for Nebraska. He recorded over 20 songs for the demo, then they recorded electric versions of all of them. Some were deemed to work better in the demo arrangement and were kept and released as Nebraska. The ones that worked with the full band were released as Born in the USA. Although some of the songs work equally as well in their original demo versions, such as Born in the USA, and he plays that song both ways in different concerts.

I saw him perform it in Vancouver in 2012. I was thrilled!

Was lucky enough to see BRUUUUCE twice in the 80s. Always does over 3 hours and yep he always pulls a girl up for that part of song.

I saw that tour in NY. 1984. At the time I was not a Bruce fan. I was into hard rock and jazz at the time. But liked this song. A friend got tickets, I asked "Why not?" One of the greatest concerts I have ever seen...and I have seen EVERYBODY....lol. He played for FOUR freaking hours!! It felt like ONE. There was an intermission after TWO! That is Bruce...I got that t shirt because of this video AT the show...he did like FIVE shows in a row at The Garden. Golden age in music.

He's still amazing live. When I saw him at the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival in 2014, he saw someone in the audience holding up a "Dance with old people" sign during this song. He reached down from his platform, took the sign, showed it to the audience, tossed it behind him, and then pulled up the older lady that was holding it and danced with her like he did with Courtney Cox in this video. That's far from the only amazing thing he did during that concert and when it was done, he was COVERED in sweat, breathing hard, and had put on one of the most amazing shows I have ever seen. He's in my top five performers I've ever seen live and I ABSOLUTELY recommend going to see him as soon as you get the chance.
