I would have given my left arm to be there! It only makes sense that the man who wrote it performs it the best. God bless you 'Bruce Springsteen'! Niels and that awesome solo! Long live 'The E Street Band'!!!!!!!!!!!!
I love the way he throws his head x2935 times during this performance. That makes me throw my head. Or at least nod. I love the Boss and this song is brilliant!
I was so happy when I saw him on the current tour and he played this song. It's always been one of my favorite Bruce songs. The guitar solo is just incredible
I really wish I were present when this man was on fire. You can't be indifferent and still to someone who does something meaningful with such great PASSION.
Really I agree with all these people....40 dislikes?! I adore this song by Patti and Bruce. This one is more gritty and working man which is what Bruce was the pure image of. Patti's was more lustful and sexually liberal which is equally amazing. Plus this is live and super well shot, just like being in Paris with the band.
bruce can play the gitar, the piano and he is a great singer! this song is so wonderful! I was at his concert in paris one week ago and he played this song... its was so great!! he is a living legend and I hope he will rock a long long time!!
proud to have contributed 100+* views. this rendition is just...goosebumps! by the way, anyone notice how ripped bruce is? damn, he is looking good and shredding hard! #madprops #lovingit #thisisawesome
Bruce wrote the song and music. She needed a single and Jimmy Iovine talked Bruce into letting her have it for her album. She changed a few lyrics. The part about the telephone is her lyrics. It would've fit nicely on Darkness On The Edge Of Town, but that shows you the genius of the Boss. If he doesn't want to be recognized for a certain song, he'll leave it off. For every song he put out, he probably set 5 aside.
I chose this song as my wedding song. We chose the 10,000 maniacs version due to the piano. We took one Rumba lession at a dance studio and we pulled off a great dance. I highly recommend it if you like Bruce and can dance a little bit.
gooooodnessss.... i thought there was no way i would like this better than patti even tho this is his song but watching this....i just gotta say its reeeallly sexy
Don't worry what others like or don't! Stop comparing yourself to others! Learn to love your experience for what it is and stop limiting your enjoyment whether others like it or not. Give freedom to others to hate or love, and you will have more freedom from hate to love.. . that simple
it's a great performance, you know it when you feel it. If you don't then you don't, there's so much out there, it's understandable. How could every single person have their particular expectations met that they happen to be carrying at any particular time? I think people who get hung up on the amount of dislikes have insecurities to look into. Basing enjoyment of something of anyting on whether others also like it or not displays a neediness and a hole in your ability to love.

Who thinks such as me that this SONG is one of the most amazing songs ever? and this live is the best.. ???
Masterpiece! At any rate...and caught in that golden time, of '85!
His version from 1980 that is on Spotify is also worth a listen. Incredible take on this song.
Best live performance ever
It's so powerful when Bruce's performing it...gives me shivers every time!
This performance gives me all the feels.
I was 20 and I was there with 70,000 people ... Happy!
My bad it was written, Parc de la Courneuve ...
That piano at the start sends chills up my back. Amazing.
Happy Birthday to one of the greatest (and hottest) rocker of the entire world! God bless you, Bruce. A real MAN.
I would have given my left arm to be there! It only makes sense that the man who wrote it performs it the best. God bless you 'Bruce Springsteen'! Niels and that awesome solo! Long live 'The E Street Band'!!!!!!!!!!!!
One of the most beatufil songs abot lust!!
I love the way he throws his head x2935 times during this performance. That makes me throw my head. Or at least nod. I love the Boss and this song is brilliant!
drugs do that
Sorry, Bruce wrote it, and OWNS it. Amazing.
OMG Bruce Springsteen! I am so in love with this guy!
IMO, this version sounds better than the one on Live 1975-85. Love the dueling guitars in the last few minutes.
I was there in 85 and i'll be there end of June when he'll be with us again.
The faith remains the same, God bless you Boss
I was so happy when I saw him on the current tour and he played this song. It's always been one of my favorite Bruce songs. The guitar solo is just incredible
i am in love with this video! super hot guy with his guitar and seducive voice!!!!!! wub
I really wish I were present when this man was on fire. You can't be indifferent and still to someone who does something meaningful with such great PASSION.
Never knew that he wrote this song until I saw him do it in concert. Boston Garden, December 1980, The River tour. An unreal time.
I just love this! Such passion!
Absolutely the best song in the history of rock.
never expected how many emotions could been put into one song- BOSS
Bruce is an amazing artist..a genius
But for me is also the sexiest man ever lived
Amazing jamming. Takes it to a whole different level.
Really I agree with all these people....40 dislikes?! I adore this song by Patti and Bruce. This one is more gritty and working man which is what Bruce was the pure image of. Patti's was more lustful and sexually liberal which is equally amazing. Plus this is live and super well shot, just like being in Paris with the band.
Sheer genius. Springsteen stands alongside Dylan, The Stones, The Beatles, The Who, Elvis and all the other all time greats.
I love both Patti's and Bruce's versions. They each interpret it in their own way. The lyric changes fit for each them
this is so great
The best performance ever! Bruce Springsteen is teh maestro! All right! 5*
wonderful song
bruce can play the gitar, the piano and he is a great singer! this song is so wonderful! I was at his concert in paris one week ago and he played this song... its was so great!! he is a living legend and I hope he will rock a long long time!!
Bruce Springsteen found and fulfilled his high calling - lucky him. How great to live life out to your utmost.
I love the way he plays the guitar ^^
Damn, i love this song.

HE IS THE GODDAMN MAN!!!!
Springsteen and Lofgren playing guitar in perfection - 4:19 and 4:36 brings tears to my eyes. Fucking brillant, one of the best songs ever.
best version I've ever heard of this song, by far- truly amazed there are 40 dislikes
RIP BIG MAN THANKS FOR ALL YOU GAVE US SLEEP EASY MY BROTHER
Bellissima.Maledetta nostalgia
Woooo Hoooo! The Boss did this song so good!!! Thanks for posting.
OMG For The Love Of Lord. His Voice. ❤❤❤❤ I ❤ You Bruce Springsteen. ❤

i love the solo from 3:01 to 3:21 the bends are amazing
This is an awesome song that I first heard sang by Pattie Smith
YES!!!! He also played it at Ullevi in Gothenburg on the 4th of July 2008. Absolutely amazing...
Bruce´s music belongs to the power of heart, rock´n roll & charisma!*****
Awesome performance, his guitar playing had such feel back then . Thanks for posting.

i thought there was no way i would like this better than patti even tho this is his song but watching this....i just gotta say its reeeallly sexy
the boss is the gr8est, patti smith should be honored to have a man like the boss to write a song like this to her.
GO BRUCE!
this is great
True! The is absolutely spine-tingling!
wow! Paris 85... maybe the best version of this song. and this is a Bruce's song, it was a present for Patti...
I always thought it was awesome that Bruce wrote this song.
Boss, you're the King
You rule on everything
Don't worry what others like or don't! Stop comparing yourself to others! Learn to love your experience for what it is and stop limiting your enjoyment whether others like it or not. Give freedom to others to hate or love, and you will have more freedom from hate to love.. . that simple
this is the best version of the song I've heard (I've heard all the remixes befor this so, don't bite me^^)
He got the muscles and all!

Simply The Boss
Nils' guitar is still burning to this day!!!
not the best audio quality ive heard for this song but it is the only version which genuinely gave me chills when listening to it.
Best live performance ever..
My favorate song from the Boss, second; "Blinded by the light"

agreed. his talent is evident in "prove it all night" from '78 as well.
