I was 16, and had just dropped my first girlfriend off at home. To put it bluntly, I wanted her in a bad way. While driving home that summer night with the windows down, this song came on the radio. It was the first time a song read my soul. Now, I'm almost 50, and that girlfriend is my wife. This song takes me back to that night, with that same feeling every time I hear it.
Hi would love to know what you think of my 17 year old grandsons cover of this ua-cam.com/video/zenNOP-dWJg/v-deo.html
👌🏻
Yeah, right.
Sounds like private pleasure moment
@@johnmorrison1525 Your perception comes from the lens of your own experiences. ;) And, I just received my licence a couple of months earlier. HANDS AT 10 AND 2 O'CLOCK!
This was the favorite song of my wife. She died last month.
LOVE YOU FOREVER Mandy.
Our fire will lives on.
Jin I’m so sorry. 😓
Forever remember her whenever you hear this song.
Its one off my fav as well .
My condolences. It is a very good song, and your wife had a great taste in music.
peace be with you
One thing I appreciated about Bruce's music was it was all about the working man and real problems, Not just the stereotypical love song
Wow, you said it. He is THE master of this. Normal people. I agree. His works are epic. Noone compares.
@@almohvn33 Love his music, but he is a prick.
Yea bc he was a working man he worked real hard didn't he
He’s such a fraud. Tax cheat and hangs with the elites who could give shits about the “working man” unless they’re buying his $2000 tickets.
Oh yeah ??? You always have horie rich women chasing after you ??? Like an common guy ..
My late fiance would sing this to me almost every day he passed on Aug 18th 2020. My sister and I went to the graveside last fall and I was telling him how much I missed him singing that song to me. Well we get to the gas station she and my 5 year old nephew go in the store and I turn the xm radio 6 channel 20 and it's Bruce Springsteen and the E street band station and this song came on and played from start to finish❤ I know you are there always my Bill xoxo
@jomcbrayer1297….beautiful memory of your man
Yes he will be always there❤
Wow! Amazing grace!! Maybe your guardian angel!! Bye!!
❤❤❤❤
great story. he will always be there with you, even though he's passed on.
My favorite Bruce Springsteen song, by far, it seems like this song lasts only 30 seconds every time I hear it. It never gets old. Ever.
I wish he'd remake this song an make it longer
I totally agreed with you. I’m 44 and every time I hear it it takes me back to my childhood. Loved the song then and still do.
these comments sound like women talking about me...
only last 30 seconds, wish it was longer... :/
2 min 30s...
@@carminegraniello4914 who you been talking to?
Who else listens to this song about 15 times in a row because it's too short?
Me, Leah. Me. This song is great (in fact, his only song that I like); but it's about 4 minutes too short. =(
Yep
Me
Here ya go Leah; the ol' "What If...." speech from Out of Sight. Only fell victim to this once or twice, myself!

Yeah someone should hit it with Fruityloops and remix it into an 8 minute version. Not really country but it does have a cowboyish beat to it with that little guitar riff.
It’s 2024 guys
We’re still here
I had never heard this song in my life until I heard it in “the hunter”
Thats right...and i still touched qhen i hear this song.😀
@@relicaficionado6835. I was born in 93. I heard it on the radio when I was 14😂
@@ericortega1745 I was born in 03 and I don’t think I’ve ever heard this on the radio unfortunately
@@relicaficionado6835. So you heard your mom or dad sing along to it while on vacation?😂
Bruce has a way of capturing a moment.
A timeless masterpiece. It’s 2023. And here I am 6 am feeling this like it’s still brand new.
Literally the same for me right now. 6:45 am here
Yep 659 am
So does Bob Seger, night moves...talking bout banging his high school Sweatheart. Main Street, song about him wanting a stripper, both beautiful songs Springsteen is awesome too
I'm gonna sell it all...250 million...done...Signed Bruce..his daughters equestrian shit is expensive
🎉
There are certain 80’s songs that give me an overwhelmingly painful and bittersweet sense of nostalgia. This is definitely one of them.
Same buddy like butterfly's
Same. Lol I couldn't stand this song when it was on the radio years ago, but I jam it now!!!! Songs like this take me back to a simpler time. 😊
I totally understand... Good and some BAD... But that was a long time ago... let memories stay memories...
I feel the same but it’s weird for me because I was born in 95. Just confirms to me that I was born in the wrong era
Wow, you definitely described how much I love this song! Not so much the video, but I understand. Take Care.
Suprised Bruce never tried his hand at acting ..he has incredible charisma
Stillverycool!
i watched this and was just thinking how genuine he was talking to the woman, not just dry delivery, but speaking under his breath saying goodbye, knowing its just pointless anyway, kinda stumbling through a word here and there, like real, a real reaction.
Bruce has been a lifelong sufferer from depression. He spends long recovery periods between albums. He retreats from the world for his own sanity.
Of course he does, that's why they call him The Boss!!
His guitarist did.
You can feel the intense conscious enduring of gut-wrenching pain in his voice/lyrics/song. It hurts like nothing else. If you have never felt the agony of unreciprocated love *or* loving someone secretly....then you are in luck, my friend.
*THAT'S WHY IT'S CALLED A CRUSH!* 😁😁😁😁😁😍😍😍😍😍😓😓😓😓😓😫😫😫😫😫😭😭😭😭😭💖💖💖💖💖💔💔💔💔💔
@@StephenHernandez-or1yh *No, the love was/is there. There were 3 of us....I opted out for a good reason. But yeah, it's possible to love more than one person....and I refused to be involved as person numero 3, Amigo. :) You just don't understand, and that's fine.*
@@StephenHernandez-or1yh no man its called luv
Безответная любовь тоже обогащает. Я испытываю такую и она делает меня лучше, она расцветила мою жизнь и принесла реальную пользу моей семье, - у меня больше сил и здоровья, а мой муж получает отраженный свет этой любви, я сублимирую.
Ich war mal schwer verliebt in Bruce da war ich noch 30 Jahre. Kinder wie die Zeit vergeht. Ich liebe seine Mucke immer noch
This song is about wanting something you can't have. The song is short, and you want more of it, but can't have it, which is why you love it. The song is not too short, it's just right. If it was any longer, it would kill your desire. Sometimes, wanting something is better than having it. If we had it, we'd just fk it up anyway. You know you would. There are things in this world that are better off without us.
i copied and pasted this comment from another im on fire vid. its so true
Amazing
the world needs more critical thinkers in it. Your on point with this one ! nice job
On another I'm on Fire video, I saw a guy say this is a "feel good tune." WTF?!?! One of my all time favorites, but I can't listen without a glass of whiskey and a cigarette.
Terrible attitude
Love your explanation...like a situation I'm in now. Oh well keep on wanting...very sexy song!!!
This song is perfect. It's short length leaves you wishing the song was longer, for something you can't have. Just like the lyrics express.
Just listen to it twice. BWAHAHAHA!
Truth MAN
I love that; "for something you cant have".
I love this song and yeah always thought it was too short, and yes you are right it leaves you wanting more just like the topic 💯
@@kelle0285 "And can he do to you the things that I do? Oh no" yeah that's a little weird -oh hell no
I don't think any other song gives me that 80s feeling. It was a time full of hope, freedom. Tribute to Mr. Bruce Springsteen ❤
I remember when this video premiered on MTV, I was sick and stayed home from school that day. The video played at the top of every hour, I watched it all day long. sweet nostalgia.
What yr was this om mtv?
@@brownwoman64 1985
I can't believe how calm Bruce sounds considering he's on fire.
I think its just a metaphore.
😆😆
Lol
Lol.
There's a method to his madness
One of the sexiest songs of all time.
Eu amo muito essa música da minha época ver e ouvir ela em português por favor português
@@naidesereia2273 Oi Naide, eu detesto ser a pessoa que vai te dar essa informação, porque tenho certeza que você vai se decepcionar, mas acho que depois de vc ter perguntado, não da pra fugir da verdade hahaha, vamos lá;
Fain, nossa colega gringa ali em cima, disse que essa musica é machista. Mas não só... a belezinha da musica também faz uma alusão a pedofilia, pelo menos é o que se entende quando ele diz "Hey little girl is you dady home? Did he go and leave you all alone? I got a bad desire, I'm on fire" ele literalmente diz "Ei pequena menina, seu papai (no sentigo de sugar dady, que é cara mais velho, rico que fica com mulheres mais novas) esta em casa? Ele foi embora e a deixou sozinha? Eu tenho um desejo mau/ruim/, estou em chamas/excitado" querendo dizer que esta sexualmente atraido por essa pequena menina!
Acho que da pra sacar a problemática da letra da música...
Um beijo Naide!!
Yes! In German!
Bruce Springsten!
Alles richtig gemacht?
Sind alles Menschen!
Nachdenken! Lernen!
Great music.
So rape is sexy?
@@imtheboss1826 where in the lyrics does it say he's raping someone?
Wanting someone so badly it hurts all the while knowing you can't have them. They don't know you exist! Damn!
Yeah it's horrible, worse even still though is wanting someone so badly and almost getting them and messing it up for yourself. Almost a year now and I'm still having dreams about her not wanting to know me.
Yep,,,,,Sucks Don't It.
But in the case of this video she knew he existed AND she wanted him too but she knew it could never be.
@@BrickCityBellawhatever may be the possibility in the outcome, the attempt for both is sweet.
Bruce Springsteen is a very good actor. That opening scene is intense. He can't look her straight in the eyes, his breathing speeds up, he seems insecure. Just really great acting that I never noticed before.
I was thinking the same thing... surprised he never pursued a more serious acting career
she should live 50 miles away so the song can be longer
ha haaaaaa!!!! so true dude
penkop2012 you made my day
That’s funny. Good one. 👍🏻
Sooo many thousands of times over did you just tell the truth
Thank you for saying that
wish this song was longer
same i'm crying
Doesn't it happen with all your favorite songs? Wish they were longer!
Nah it’s perfect. Leaves you with a sense of longing just like the lyrics suggest.
Lexi So true.
Wish it never ended
The only bad thing about tho song is it is so short...
This song & Bruces voice does things to me 😫
I' m 51 now, with 16 and 14 year old children and in a 22 year relationship - but within one second of this song (my favourite Bruce song) I can be instantly transported back to 1987, being 16 and going through the bitter-sweet pain of my first love. Timeless song !
It takes me back to 1985 but point taken. 😁 I am also 51.
Yeah I'm 50, vibes all over every time I hear this. We can never go back but the sweet, sweet memories will haunt forever.
@@SPBurt1 I wish I was around at that time to hear this on the radio for the first time
Those first love break ups hurt the worst. Most of us can never love like that again
Music is introduced to the masses much differently now. Crazy how time changes shit
I met the love of my life at 19 listening to this song and I still remember the smouldering passion...we have been married now 35yrs ...the passion is still there ..the body a little weathered lol
Good to know that love can like that can, and sometimes does, last.
Congrats to you both!🙂
😂
@@kadiabareld the body a bit weathered? It's not about the body .It's about what's in a persons ♥️glad to think it's funny my darling.
@@mandysampieri5720 but it was funny or no?
Such a great song. Perfect to play while driving alone with only your thoughts....
Like it was yesterday…, I had just left Army boot camp heading for duty in Germany when this album came out. Never more proud to be an American than hearing this song playing outside Frankfurt airport in summer 1984. I’m still on fire!
What did you do in Germany other than booze and beautiful German chicks? It's a criminal empire the US. You should be ashamed.
I was about 3 weeks away from finishing the 9th grade when this was released. My mom and stepdad were WAY bigger Springsteen fans than myself. I did however like several off Born in the 🇺🇸.
And he still wants me
I think she knows
Oh
Amazing how a song with so few words and a simple beat can hit so deep.
...and after all these years too.
When every word counts, every beat counts, and every note counts, that's what you get.
I'd be honored if some Springsteen fans would take a quick listen to my acoustic piano & vocal YT performance DANCING IN THE DARK in tribute to Bruce's biggest world-wide hit. Live acoustic with no autotune. Peace and stay safe in the '020s.
Best "longing" song ever created...hands down.

very good! it's a good one. (there must be a reason you remember the song :)
This song is untouchable- like the moon and the sun- there, forever and beautiful.
every time I listen to this song, I feel that deep feeling I can't describe...
100 % agree.

So true. Sometimes I suppose we don't have to nor shouldn't need to articulate how something makes us feel. It's for us and us only.
+Wolf Ado I haven't a clue what you're talking about mate. I was responding to the initial comment made.
When I was 6 years old my dad passed away. He loved Bruce Springsteen and every time I play Bruce songs I get goose skin it's like my dad hugs me and is sad that he couldn't be a part of my life. But still he is my guardian angel
I'm so sorry, rest in peace💝🙏🏻
Thats awesome man. Head up

BEST short kut EVER by a freakin' mile ;-)
I remember that in 84 I didn't have money even to buy this record... hard times. In 2014, I met Bruce in South Africa and he was very kind - I cried at the hotel later. Thanks for everything, Bruce. Greetings from São Paulo, Brazil.
Pussy. Real men don't cry, they write perfect songs like Bruce does.
Robert Klebe agreed
Bless you
The song came out in 1985 not 1984
@@robertklebe9236 I don't know if this was supposed to be a joke, but Bruce definitely has a different view of masculinity than you have. It is perfectly okay to cry.
this has to be my favorite Springsteen song, very moving and the music video captures the ethos of the time perfectly.
It’s lovely ❤
..can we talk about Bruce's ACTING, here!? ...the small inflections, looks, & instinct... (0:54) (2:45) ....he was SERIOUSLY on a roll during the "Born In The USA" era...this tune peaked at #6 Pop, April 1985......
that 2 minute song that should have been 5
Or ten...I love it so much
Ikr
I think that I read somewhere that Bruce recorded this last minute because he still had space on the album or something like that. Imagine if this wasn't on Born in the USA and never released
pgrothschild your right this song is underrated love it
Much like Tom petty and the heartbreaker's Luna.
A man who worked with me, played this song one night when we were alone. I was in a relationship at the time. When he put it in the recorder and turned it up, I glanced over and we locked eyes. Six months later I married him. 31 years now. And he's still on fire.
Kim Beall God this made me so happy to read.. You were meant to be together
Cheatn ass
@@waynemccrary lol!!
It wasnt the song if you were already alone with him. True love at any price I guess
you hit the jackpot Kim, you're lucky!!!!
One of the coolest Springsteen songs ever ✌🏾🍺
Funny you should say that cause it's actually a Johnny Cash song 🙂
It's so funny you should say that because I always think of Johnny Cash when I hear it! Trippy
Thank you folks 4 updating I didn't know until now it's original a Johnny Cash song
@@smileyman7376 Bruce wrote the song first. Johnny Cash did a cover of it afterwards.
I remember back to when those PMRC people were criticizing these lyrics. They were saying it was promoting stalking and violence, which was total BS. To me, the music is about loneliness and the walls we erect between us that perpetuates it. Also, the video could be about happiness. She lives a privileged life with lots of wealth, but are you happy? The song says it all. He was expressing how he felt, not suggesting any specific action. Absolute masterpiece of a song.
To whoever reads this:
I don’t know who you are or what you do, but hope you have an amazing night/day and it’s incredibly cool that you like this song.
Thanks....back at ya
Same to you Isabelle. Enjoy your weekend
grazie, you too
I'm not having a amazing time lost my job and my wife
Blessings honey x
Who’s listening to this gem in 2021 nothing like real music❤️🙏
Me ... all the time .. whys the song so short 💙🤘 ... born in 1984 btw . This is the best song ever!!
Me! Otherwise i cant survive!
Absolutely
@@brentkiley519 You lucky bastard! 36 is a great age!! I'm 45.
yep quality gear right there!
I love how the music video is about how class distinctions between two people can rob them of romance. Totally changes how I view the song when I listen to it.
It was when she said “We live way out in the hills”
She dug him. But he didn’t wanna meet the husband.
The lyrics on their own sound very predatory, but the music video definitely gives more context. Not that cheating is a good thing, but I’m glad to see the little girl is actually a full grown woman instead of a child.
In the video anyways but those lyrics of course say something else!🤬🤬🤬
This song is still the most passionate song ever. Nothing compares. And the ending of the video is a revelation. That he is so full of longing he is happy to go and feel the night air on a long walk home. Also a steamy symbol of a common man yearning for something better and beautiful... a work of art this.
Underrated comment and your absolutely right. 😊👍
In my opinion Bruce Springsteen has a unique, & rare singing voice which can capture the simple mundane moments of human life & turn them into nostalgic human memories, it is a gift from God!
I agree. Listen to Incident On 57th street live Barcelona. He kills it.
Still is my friend one of the few that hasn't passed
Streets of Philadelphia is from God too, existencial song ! See behind the music and you find someone !
Makes everything much more authentic
That gruffness and raspiness was common in the 70s and 80s. Singers had to sing live in small venues for many years before they could make it big. and their voices got seasoned. Not the case anymore.
Miss you dad. Thanks for showing me the boss.
Can’t wait to see him on Sunday ❤
This video had great production values for the era in which it was produced. It doesn't really look dated 30-plus years later. I wish music videos were still like this...
I was just thinking the same thing
Yes and no, in my opinion. ; ] The crappy warble when the song begins is just as if you're listening to this on a tape deck in a car back in the '80s. However, in all fairness, I'm sure that wasn't in the original release. VEVO left awful production blunders in other videos, too. Cinderella's "Don't Know What You Got (Till It's Gone)" comes to mind, with a squelch at its 3:57 mark -- right in the middle of the song's arguably best part, which is, again arguably, one of the nicest guitar solos of the '80s.
The foley work here is shoddy, but I don't mean to nitpick. The white-clad wonder woman's voice has a different reverb characteristic because it wasn't recorded on the spot in the scene. The keys falling into Bruce's hand don't sound 'correct' either. Those two examples of substandard editing could surely have been remedied back then, but there are also many sound effects in more modern productions which I opine could have been done better.
What I see as timelessly great is the overall genuine artfulness of the production, which I believe is another way of saying what you've said. The decision to build tension with the riveting moment where viewers realize they aren't going to see the woman's face is a hallmark of artistry. Great video, as it captures the essence of the song.
There were lackluster videos back in the '80s, just as there are today. "I'm On Fire" stands apart because it has substance and character, hinting at a dark subject with an element of decorum, or at least basic decency, which 'art' and life seem to glaringly lack today.
There`s also the bouncy picture at the beginning. Looks like Telecine Wobble. Watched the same video somewhere else and it`s not happening there. So VEVO screwed something up during the transfer from the film reels. Or somebody else did and VEVO just uploaded it for promotional purposes.

love it
She was 19 and out of my league, and she had a boyfriend. I knew her for 3 weeks thanks to our mutual friends. We never talked to much but we would always give each other silly looks...
There was a students' party of a kind...
I was 22 and pretty shy but managed to have a nice conversation with her that night. I didn't expect anything to happen... Later that night she asked me to escort her to her dorm not far away. We were in her room, and this was one of the songs she had on her mp3 CD.
We did not kiss or anything. She called me tomorrow to tell me she broke up with her boyfriend....
I was surprised and my ego was high as the sky, I did not expect that.
We were crazy for each other for five months and then she broke up when she had to return to her hometown.
19 years later, a year ago, I see her with her daughter (probably 6), I was with my son (9) and she gave me that same silly smile and we said not a word to each other.
Bruce wasn't going to let her ruin three lives, no matter how much he wanted her. Be like Bruce and ignore your heart when you feel something for someone who you know is unobtainable for a good reason.
I like his howling at the end of the song. Gives me chills ever time I hear it.
My dude didn't make this song long enough. it's such a shame.
Im soooooo sorry u dont understand this song for the genius masterpiece that's as is
I think this is my fav Bruce song. It is brilliant.
Bruce was a 35 year old man asking if a little girls dad was home because he has a bad desire.
This is one of those songs that i feel sad and disappointed when it ends. Wish this song was longer, leaves me wanting

So sorry.
Sounds like a legend
Bruce Springsteen is truly poetic.
It’s amazing how he turned an old freight train riden down the tracks late at night blowing that horn in the distance into a song. It embodies all of that late night summer quiet back road essence and the passion of thinking of a woman.
One of my favorite songs. It's hard to believe I've been listening to this for 39 years.
Căruciorul fără adăpost nu al meu sau despre care știe cineva, iar conducerea îl va vedea și îl va transporta la timp mai devreme, cu atât mai bine
I respect Springsteen's lack of vanity. Most musicians try so hard to look so damn sexy, cool or god-like in all their videos. He's always a mechanic covered in grease or a lonely man in a pub. It makes him feel so human.
Because he's the BOSS.
a lot of those guys were scripted and did it for the fame in the 80´s but bruce does it for the music and a lot of them had big egos to bruce doesnt have that nothing wrong with a ego though ! just dont be a dick !
Nailed it perfectly. That's who he is, just another guy. Man in the street, one of the boys.
Tbh it makes him look sexier. Natural, manly, strong.
Worker class hero
Back in the 80's watching this video as a kid, I always wondered how Bruce Springsteen was going to get back home at the end of this video.
I know, me too. According to her, they live way up in the hills so Bruce is a long way from home. Either he will be doing a lot of walking and bus rides (if the buses are still running) or finding a pay phone and calling up a cab, but paying a grip in the process.
I still wonder. Does he take a bus? Call a taxi? How does he get home???
Vanessa Enlow
The stupid dumbass probably walked all the way home! Even if he didn't he's such an idiot for taking it to her house when she said not to! And does that help get him that women? NO! She just forgets about him! What a dumbass! She would have remembered him better if she had come back for it! No wonder so many men are stupid AFC's today. They are probably Springsteen fans!
lol once he gets to a highway he hitch hikes! But since he has so much desire the walking doesn't matter anyway :)
He called his private helicopter cause he's Bruce Springsteen...
A Pure Genius Masterpiece!!!!!! Thanks Boss!!!!!!!!
Born in the USA was released almost 40 years ago and this song still gives me goosebumps! My favorite song of the album. Love it!
I love it too❤
Hey Bruce, everytime you get to the freight train lyrics, I'm haunted by the memory of my brother singing it in the 80's. I can almost hear him singing it. I miss him.
Sorry for your loss
Heck yeah that's the best part of this best song
RIP to your brother

Back when music videos actually made sense.
+DoomPowerMetal to you.
+Lee N So this was too complicated for you?
+Kris Wood DoomPowerMetal's comment implied they wished more music videos were like this one, which means this video made sense to them and wasn't "too complicated" at all.
ryleeroo thats what i said. Heh.
It's not that it's complicated, it's that some vids get way too abstract or weird that the song suddenly feels cheapened or something. Sometimes the song and the video don't even look like they belong together. This classic song is an example of a video that perfectly fits the music and just makes it more enticing to watch again.
1st heard this song 10 years ago.
I had it on my Playlist. Then me and the wife went thru a separation. I was drinking in my vehicle. My mom came to talk to me about my drinking and where I was headed in my life.
I told I can't explain in words, so i played this song. My mom started crying. Then I learned my dad played this song for my mom when they dated.
My dad passed 3 years prior.
;_;
2024 and I’m still here ❤
Heard this song for the first time ever yesterday, and have become absolutely obsessed with it. Truly can't take it off of repeat! It's so subtle, but instantly draws you in and makes you want more by the time it's over. A masterpiece.
Welcome to the "I love this song" club. ❤ I have loved this for a long time, enjoy
It's so haunting & beautiful
I heard it for the first time yesterday, in Orange is the new black tv series, and I was hooked....I have been playing it since yesterday.
Yup Ik that feeling. it's now my most played song on Spotify
welcome to the club!
Thirty years ago, I remember a coworker at McDonald's dancing to this. Watching her dance to this was something I never forgot. She went on to Nursing School and my life went in another direction. Yesterday, I had hip replacement surgery. When they brought me to my room after recovery, the nurse was settling me in and her name tag dangled in front of me, and I said to myself, "Now there's a name I haven't heard from in a long time... "
Did she remember you? Did you mention that moment at McDonald's? I would have. :)
Wow this story is just something hahaha
Where's the rest of the story?!
Paging Mr. Harvey Paging A MR. Paul Harvey...
A weird version of fan fiction!
Das schönste ist,dass kann man sich zum ALLES begeistern ❣️
Danke B.S.❤🎉❤❤❤❤
My fathers Favorite Bruce Springsteen song ❤.
so, i grew up in the 80's, my childhood was 79-97. My music was was mainly Cure/Joy Division. I was thinking about this song today, and how i wouldnt dare tell my friends i like springstein. i figure 25-30 years later i can like it, playing through my head everyonce and a while for that long. I sit down with an acoustic guitar today, to finally play this, with in two tries i had it down, beautiful muted rhythm and vocals. right away, its a natural, cool song. wife loved it. if you play an instrument, play this for youre girl tonight, you have no idea how it pays off. if i did this decades ago, would have lost virginity that much sooner. cheers.
Same for me. Bauhaus, Cure, Joy Divison, Gang of Four, DNA, etc.. But I love this song. It's very romantic.
And I love him too. As a man and as a musician. Respect for Bruce Springsteen. One of the best .. Ever
+Brendan Garman AMEN BROTHER!!!!!!!
Ha ha , tell them Man , nothing to afraid of , music makes the world go round !!!
That's a long ass childhood lol. If you were born in 1979, then it's 82-91 or so... about age 3-12. Teenagers are kids but when I hear the word childhood, I think of believing in Santa and the Easter Bunny and stuff.
And it does seem like all genres of music from back then flow together more these days, it can ALL get lumped into just being called "80s music" now. I mean everyone who grew up then is in their 40s, so of course it's not gonna be as cliquey and genre specific as when the fans were 14. Plus people's tastes also can mature with age. There's 80s metalheads who now admit they like Madonna and stuff.
Never cared for Springsteen as a child, but as a man, this song beautiful.
Amen
@@TheRuddster95 He's an acquired taste for sure.
Agreed
Yikes 😬 yu listening to the lyrics bro?
I'm the same way. I never really cared for him when I was young, but now I really appreciate a lot of his work, especially this song
This song brings back memories till this day I still love her even after we broke up
Thanks dad. For being on fire
The whole feeling of the video and the song is exactly how I feel in the situation. Being so close yet so distant, the longing, the sleepless nights because they're the only thing on your mind
Yes, exactly
This track is a work of art, just like a Picasso painting or a fine sculpture. Amazing work.
Nail on head!
I just discovered it. It's the perfect song.
I was in 12th grade, and my parents were out of town. My first real serious boyfriend came over. we were watching MTV and this came on…we started making out. This song brings me right back to that time. Time goes way too fast.
I’m 15 and a HUGE Bruce fan, but these comments damn I cried reading them this is just pure bitter sweat love
I'm 16 and i feel what you mean
I'm 55 years old and I just discovered a love for Mr. Springsteen's music 🎶❤
Welcome to the club!! He’s awesome! Been listening to him for years!
❤️❤️❤️💋
Don't be surprised ok, it's true I don't usually do this. But the pandemic has really tore everything apart leaving lots of people depressed and sad. That's why am pasting my personal email address here via: brucespringsteen00125@gmail.com to enable you share your opinions about my songs or send personal message you wish to share with me. I can't still appreciate everyone of you enough for the unconditional love and massive supports ❤️ it's because of you am here today. I hope you won't stop listening and supporting my songs.
Thanks once more and remember to stay safe ❤️
I listen to this on loop when I'm resting my head on the shoulders of sheer loneliness and slumping under a myriad of memories. Bruce has a way with time. He never gets old with his art of living through the old.
This song could be about the woman or the car. Either way, this is the shortest song ever to tell a long story. So much is packed into this and emotions it stirs makes you want someone to feel this way about.
This song never gets old. It’s so haunting! Love it!
The howling sound he makes at the end perfectly captures lying awake in bed at 2.30 am on a sweltering summer’s night, not being able to sleep because you can’t stop thinking about that person you want to be with so badly, but you know deep down that you can never have them.
Now I can`t sleep even more, ..... 😞 😞 😞 😞 .....
well said good sir
Pathetic simp song. The rich womans skin crawls at the thought of 1980's bruce.
Very well said. I’m there now
Wow, you expressed so perfectly how feel the ones that lost the love they dreamed about, who will never come back...
My dad passed away last November and he loved this song so everytime I listen to it, it makes me think of him
God bless my friend and al the best wishes from the Netherlands to you.
🤗🌷🌻🌸
So sorry for your loss JJ. Beautiful song to remember him by x
Prayers And Blessings. Amen
Me too! Lost my dad 2 yrs ago, this song and Bobby Jean bring the best memories back for me. Perfect song!
Ahhhh the good old days of music videos 😢😢😢😢
Can’t believe I’m about to write this but…Thank you Orange is the new black . I would’ve missed this classic ..
This is Bruce Springsteen! This video should have 1 billion views ❤
LYRICS
Hey little girl, is your daddy home?
Did he go and leave you all alone? Mhmm
I got a bad desire
Oh, oh, oh, I'm on fire
Tell me now, baby, is he good to you?
And can he do to you the things that I do? Oh no
I can take you higher
Oh, oh, oh, I'm on fire
Sometimes it's like someone took a knife, baby
Edgy and dull and cut a six inch valley
Through the middle of my skull
At night I wake up with the sheets soaking wet
And a freight train running through the middle of my head
Only you can cool my desire
Oh, oh, oh, I'm on fire
Oh, oh, oh, I'm on fire
Oh, oh, oh, I'm on fire
Such very bad thoughts he is singing and saying there 🤬I hope that mother and father were at home 😰
She had a husband, they are both pretty old
serching for this🎉
