I was born in Youngstown. I went to war and didn’t come back. There was nothing left for us back home. Thanks for remembering us, Boss.
Yes! Ty Boss 🤩💪🏻💥
I'm a drummer. I can play campfire guitar but I have to say this. Nils Lofgren's solo on this has hit me in a way that I never thought guitar play could hit me. He is so incredibly underrated.
Bruce said this about Nils once "The most overqualified second guirtarist in rock'n roll" .
I strongly recommend you get his album "Acoustic Live" , it is a true gem, especially if you have a good stereo.
@@Dreez76 I own it, and I've listened to it a bunch throughout the years :-) it's beautiful.
I May sound absurd , but this is the best solo in the history of rock , because solo Is not about how much Speed you can reach, but about how every single note sounds! And even if you don' t know nothing about Guitar this solo Will get you!
@@alessandropino8479 not absurd. I support this 100%
@@sandrasvri9286 thank you you , understood my english!
Nils Lofgren is the E Street Band's secret weapon, the man is a phenomenal musician!! Nils, absolutely slays on this solo!! He is one of the most underrated guitarists period!
I live in NE Ohio and I can tell you first hand this is true - as sad as it is. I grew up watching steel mills shut down left and right and I had no idea of the impact it had. Jobs and pensions that were once promised were gone. My father was a casualty of that. This song hits home - literally.
Yep, dad was 6 months from retirement
"Those big boys did what Hitler couldn't do"...wow, what a line.
That line hits me hard as well...
And now the big boys are doing what Hitler did.
I believe that's a direct quote from an ex Youngstown steel worker. I love the verse,
From the Monongahela valley
To the Mesabi iron range
To the coal mines of Appalachia
The story's always the same
Seven hundred tons of metal a day
Now sir, you tell me the world's changed
Once I made you rich enough
Rich enough to forget my name
That's a powerful indictment
Whats that fight the Russians? Thats what Hitler did...lost 95% of German troops died in the Soviet Union.
@@owenbrown8173 An indictment, yeah. But the way it turned out, it was the workers who were found "guilty," not the owners, and the workers who had to "do time."
I was born and raised in Youngstown. This song plays in my mind every day. The lyrics are so true, and are felt by all who have ever lived here. We have so much pride here. But pride is often the thing you hang on to when everything else is gone.
There is an enormous amount of pride of people who come from Youngstown. I was born and raised there too. With all the pride we have, there is still painful memories. But, we still can hold on to the greatness of our beloved Youngstown. YOUNGSTOWN, YOU'RE ALL HEART!
In 1910 my grandpa went from the "badlands" of Calabria to Younstown! He never spoke about how hard was working over there! He came back to Italiy 20 years later! I tuoi feel like I.m a part of Younstown!
Will Youngstown vote for Trump or Biden?
You Beautifully put to words what working class people regardless of their nationality,language or religion feels everyday all over the world.
🕯🌘
@@KleWdSide if you think either of them would change much that would materially help Youngstown I got a bridge to sell ya
This is the most gorgeous, heart melting, intense and overwhelming performance of this song.
true, all at once.
Thank you Gio. That screaming, wailing guitar solo from Nils brings tears to my eyes.
Una de las canciones más profundas en el disco, y mejor llevadas al directo. Es imposible no emocionarse
One of my favorite performances by Springsteen and the E Street band. So awesome to see Danny and Clarence and that f’in amazing guitar solo by Nils. Love this so much
Gio Trevi This 3+hr concert is FULL of MOST GORGEOUS, HEART MELTING, INTENSE & OVERWHELMING RENDITIONS (PERFORMANCES) of ALL SONGS INCLUDED!!! Again I'm going to strongly suggest to all, that whatever decent form of recording you can get of this Live In New York concert, get it before it's gone!!! I DOUBT there WILL EVER BE AN EQUAL!!!
When Nils finished that solo, his guitar ascended to heaven.
When I die I don't want no part of heaven, I would not do heaven's work well
I pray the devil comes and takes me to stand in the fiery furnaces of hell
Pairs nowhere close to a real guitarist like Clapton
@@pgaquigz1125 horses for courses. Not a fan of Clapton, myself, so for me Nils is better.
@@owenbrown8173 lmfaooooooo you clearly are tone deaf if you think nils is better than Clapton. You lose all credibility in everything you say in life
@@pgaquigz1125 ok. I think you may be missing the point about subjectivity in musical taste. Perhaps you are just a good soul trying to help boost Clapton's public profile after his recent public relations nightmares concerning his COVID views and his collaboration with Van Morrison.
Nils absolutely tearing this up, I think toms a technically very talented guitarist but you can feel Nils means it, absolute masterclass 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Most underrated Springsteen song. Had it been released in this format, as opposed to acoustic, initially then it would probably get more love. But it's still up there for me.
Such a good song!
I was there that night! Those 10 concerts were fabulous!!!! The 1999-2000 Tour was the first time I saw Bruce Springsteen in concert and I became an obsessed fan. 100+ concerts years later I’m so glad I saw Bruce!!!
Unfortunately I wasn't there but much like you I only began to appreciate Bruce's soul driven talent while seeing the compilation of several nights in New York, concert video! Many of the songs chosen to be included on the video were unfamiliar to me, as I wasn't much of a fan, UNTIL!!! The intense spirituality of every song included and the combined extraordinary talents that make up The E Street Band, totally blew me away! Also the excellent audio quality of the live performances put the icing on the cake for me! Hence my posted comment 3 yrs ago!
What a guitar player Nils Lofgren is ... This is one of the best guitar solos in the history of RnR!
It's not a really great solo. He over-bends in a couple of places, his tone is way too 'processed', and he relies far too much on artifice. It has a certain 'build' to it - but can you imagine what Jimi Hendrix or Derek Trucks would have done to this song?
@@petegilgan4058 Man, Nils certainly has his super uniqe style of playing and that's enough said ;)
@@petegilgan4058 Who is Derek Trucks?
PETE GILGAN hey man..fuck you and your fucking overbends. Get outta here....Bruceeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee forever
I find myself coming back to watch/listen to this solo at least every few weeks for 10 years now. I just can’t get over how good it is (and fun to watch)
There is Max's drumming, there is Nils' guitar solo, but Springsteen's vocal performance of those beautiful, angry lyrics is a wonder to behold.
Nils Lofgren has always had a headliner's presence and charisma (and talent), even when playing the role of sideman. I'm glad he remained part of the E Street Band when Springsteen got the old gang, including Van Zandt, back together. Clearly, there was room for all of them.
In my opinion this performance represents all Bruce's essence in 5 minutes, I can barely contain my tears.
I am right there. Don't try to contain the tears; let them come.
Yes sir. I had 2 uncle's who worked in those filthy coke plants who died early due to working in those plants .
This has always been my answer to “What is the best love solo ever?”
I understand why Neill Young' couldn't keep this master right beside him since he discovered Nils in 1969 this solo is why and this is coming from Neil young s biggest fan
This is my favorite Springsteen song by far. Not just this song. This rendition. (The original is good, more folksy.) The atmosphere Springsteen creates is like instant time travel. Transcendent. And Nils Lofgren's solo is other-worldly.
It brings tears to my eyes almost every time. The anger, the rage, at the betrayal; the realization that you were lied to, to support a ruling class who did not care if you lived or died.
@@johnthorne4093 The more things change....
@@paulharries9558❤
The way Nils hits those strings with his fingers climbing the fretboard, plucking, with the thumb pick. If I can ever play like that I'll die very happy. F'in mind blowing 🤯
Keep working on it dude. I haven't used a pick in years. This is mind blowing 🤯
....I just use my thumb. Better control for me. I feel too far away with the thumb pick..just me.
He made that guitar cry!
Nils takes the roof off, as he does. Loves that late up shot of him. Made me think of the cover of Cry Tough, what an epic album that is. If you don't have a copy of Cry Tough you are missing out
Maybe 2 of the best guitar solos that I've ever seen. Nils Lofgen on Youngstown and Tom Morello on the Ghost of Tom Joad. I saw them both in a Springsteen concert. Other worldly!
Sono d'accordo con te bob Jacobs!😅😍😘❤️
YES!! That collaboration with Tom Morello was amazing! It just felt like they blew the roof off the place with that. I hope it was as awesome as it looked!
Good solos. Slash November rain. Intro to sorrow from pink Floyd. Dave gilmores solo on comfortably numb. Stevie Ray vaughn on any song. The mighty Clarence on jungle land yes I know different instrument but wow what a solo. There are many others to list. This solo by nils is mind blowing.. This concert is my favourite work of of. I used to listen to this everyday after work just to crawl along the floor playing air guitar.
@@neilsime3258 una versione memorabile! La potenza della voce di Bruce! 😱😍😍😘🎸💘❤️💔💔💔💯💯💯
@@anelladambrosio2513 Te pierdes mi punto. La voz de Bruce no está en duda. Solo estaba señalando. Hay solos en el mundo de la música que sacan esto del agua. Bruce es una leyenda un icono. Mi héroe. Sus palabras me ofrecen orientación en la vida.
Wow insane solo from nils
I am a bit obsessed with this song and I'm not even American
U don't have to be!!! Thanks for your comment!
Our music is all we've had left for some time now! ❤
The best guitar solos ever!
That guitar solo. Nils wails.
That intent stare from Max as he helps build up to that climax, god what a band this is!
No kidding! He's so into the moment of this amazing thing that is unfolding on stage in real time. Just incredible.
Yes. Bruce is faced backward from the stage, so he can direct his drummer and his lead guitarist. He feels the moment, then decides the time is right, then counts 4 and starts them up again. Amazing. Why do I bother listening to music instead of watching Netflix? That's why.
Just think of all the prime years we missed out during the 'hiatus'
The boss sings loud and proud for he knows the stories he speaks of under the sun😎
I've watched this hundreds of times by now. Nils Lofgren born Chicago, Illinois
There is a power and an anger in this performance that's just extraordinary.
It is almost as if Nils has been struck by lighting. Love that solo.
No words anymore... I’ve watched this for years and still blows me away
His voice stinks and Neil’s sucks compared to that of a Clapton
@@pgaquigz1125 Behave yourself! I'm a huge Clapton fan and have seen him play many times. I've also seen Bruce play on pretty much every European tour and enjoyed Nils playing in a small venue in North Wales a few times. Why compare? just enjoy!
@@hyder1962 nils is just so dramatic when he plays. I’m more of a blues guy that’s why I prefer Clapton. However, Bruce’s voice is much more powerful than claptons. And again however, I don’t like Bruce gets overly gritty, he was his best in the 80’s when he sung really pure. Hope to see both of them again soon once this overblown pandemic is finished. That’s if governments allow it to. Did you know many states in the US count non related deaths as covid if they simply tested positive? For example car crash or suicide. It’s sad. But on a side note, I am enjoying their music!
@@pgaquigz1125 Jesus Christ, what a tool you are. Dumb as a post.
@@johnthorne4093 oh lord, now don’t you just sound like the intelligent type… a moron UA-camr talking smack. Come say that to my face, keyboard warrior
The last verse always hits me hard.
This song hits home hard, I’m a 3rd generation mill worker, still bless to have a job. So many effected in the last 70’s schools closed population has been cut in half, once a thriving booming town, no longer thrives but more like surviving at best. Neil hit home to many with this song. God bless you all. Stay strong Youngstown!
Thank you for that. I pray to God that Youngstown and all her strong daughters and sons survive and thrive.
There is an enormous amount of pride of people who come from Youngstown. I was born and raised there. With all the pride we have, there is still painful memories. But, we still can hold on to the greatness of our beloved Youngstown. YOUNGSTOWN, YOU'RE ALL HEART!
Youngstown was definitely abandoned and left to die, they're building up downtown and YSU, but not much else.
I was born her in Youngstown...I will die here ❤
There are many Youngstowns in this world, reminds me of my hometown, abandoned and forgotten, thanks for this song Bruce!
One of the best guitar solos ever!
Hahahahahahaha you are delusional. He sucks compared to that of a Clapton
@@pgaquigz1125 yes Eric Clapton is great - just obvious.
A devastating attack on the callousness of the rich and powerful. Their sons died in Vietnam and Korea and now they've had their lives ripped apart because it suits people with more power than they have. What did their sons die for? What Springsteen is really good at is empathy, seeing things from the point of view of others.
Robert, I love your comment. Thank you. The narrator of this song realizes he was never "part of the team", as he thought, he was a pawn, to be sacrificed at the right time, and forgotten about.
This band, this man, this song--there is no equal on this planet!
Great comment; totally there with you. I am so grateful for Springsteen's time on this earth.
@@johnthorne4093 sono d'accordo con te John! Nessuno supera Bruce sul palco! 😍😍😘💋❤️
The underrated magic is Max's drums driving the message home in the last minute. It gets overlooked on that amazing rif, but he owns the finale
I'm born and raised and still live in Youngstown,OH. The one verse could be my dad. Come back from WWII. And he worked at US Steel Ohio Works. Yellow Creek is a beautiful park in neighboring Struthers. The creek dumps into the Mahining River where all the steel mills once were
This song speaks to a dark time for our area, but for those out there who have not been home for awhile, just know the air is clear and downtown is booming. There is so much life downtown now, compared to when the mills first closed. We have many, many businesses, hotels, the Amphitheatre, etc. Its wonderful.
I was baptized at St. Peter and Paul Orthodox in Youngstown and my grandparents were parishioners for 20 years. Bruce is speaking to me and my people
600 likes, what's wrong with people, us hardcore fans know this is probably the best live recording of this song. Unless you see it live, this is the best ever. Love you Bruce, thanks for everything come back to NZ brother, let's make it 4 live shows :)
Because Neil’s sucks compared to a Clapton
Unbelievable lyrics.
Such an awesome song. Bruce and the mighty E Street Band killed it once again.
Nils nailed it again THANK YOU most underrated guitar player ever
He sucks compared to that of a Clapton
@@pgaquigz1125 You again? Go away, deplorable. "that of a Clapton": Is English your first language? BTW, what language(s) do they speak in Arkansas? Mississippi? Oh, who the fuck cares?
"Some songs are like a tattoo for your Mind: you listen to them and they remained glued above you".
I really think that Bruce, with this song, did it.
Who else?
Sing loud and proud about Youngstown😎
We'll never see another like Bruce!
No chance for that!
Damn moment of music history. One of these big anthems
Yea for hicks from Ohio
I know this version is known for Nils’ guitar, but the vocal performance is immense too.
He sucks compared to that of a Clapton
@@pgaquigz1125 "that of a Clapton"? Jesus fucking Christ; totally wrong, and totally stupid. Give up. Don't comment on anything anymore. Go listen to country music on your car radio.
"This song is about ahhh... losing everything ya had if you played by all the rules" - Bruce Springsteen, Nov 1995 on the Letterman Show. A great version too.
Best version of his best song
This is just incredible
Of course Bruce is awesome as always, but the whole band as well... the accordion and mandolin
And Nils Nils Nils that was insane!!!!
Nils....what can you say? Killer.
Goose bumps every time...think of his pedigree. Everyone had realized he's a genius.
I was born and live in YOUNGSTOWN!
My dad was also born in youngstown, greethinks from germany ✌️
Born in Youngstown live in hubbard
Me too.
Born and raised in Youngstown, Ohio Lived through the glory days of Youngstown Sheet & Tube, Republic Steel and booming economy. Also saw the mills closed and the town slowly feel the impact of these closures. Song rings so true!
"Once I made you rich enough.
Rich enough to forget my name...."
So ironic
Alas yeah
I hope you truly meant 'Ironic" and not "Iconic", if so, then fuck yea, lots of irony from Springsteen
Those are heartbreaking words to hear. They are the finality of the con that's been played on you. God grant that Trump's fools come to that realization someday.
When he performs with The E-Street Band is what I love...natural, powerful and warm at the same time...simply The Boss ❤️
✨💜
Saw my 1st concert of his 2 years after this, my old man had just passed a month before (was a big fan) and was supposed to be with us. It was a sundrenched evening, we were close to the stage and Bruce and band provided the ultimate cathartic experience to my grief - it was simply the best concert of my life (Manchester 2003).
Becky, it seems like you got some peace out of this experience; I'm glad for you. God bless.
Once I made you rich enough. Rich enough to forget my name.
The pain of the American heartland
Bruce, mein Freund seit 1979, ist musikalisch und menschlich unerreicht. Das gleiche gilt für die fantastische E-Street Band. ❤🇨🇭
What a solo Nils! Love how it builds to a crescendo with Max's drums and then Bruce counts in the ending.
He sucks compared to that of a Clapton
@@pgaquigz1125 You are a total and complete imbecile. BTW, in case you need help,
"imbecile" is bad. Ask your mom for help with pronouncing it. Then you can use it on your friends. It'll be fun.
@@johnthorne4093 imbecile is not an uncommon word you dunce. And why would you bring my mom into it. Shows your moral standards are lackluster at best.
That scream at 4:00 is all of Bruce’s summation of himself.
Raspy nonsense you mean
@@pgaquigz1125
Why is it nonsense?
@@paeng46 the normal person could not understand 10% of what he’s saying in this song
@@pgaquigz1125
Got it. Springsteen always sings incoherently.
One of the greatest performances of any band. Ever. Captured for generations
Holy shit!!!
As well as the Lofgren virtuoso solo, Max plays those skins so well, you forget just how good he is
He sucks compared to that of a Clapton
The genius that is Bruce
Captures the mood
He manages to take an obscure acoustic folk song about the Rust Belt drying up and turn it into a rock ‘n’ roll piece of art where you hang on every word, and witness a pure spectacle of musicianship.
The words to the song are haunting, the message is relevant and the performance is like nothing anybody else is capable of
"Those smokestacks reachin' like the arms of God
Into a beautiful sky of soot and gray!"
Anyone who grew up in Youngstown along with me in the 60s can relate . . .
Isn't it "soot and clay"? But... that is one of my favorite lyrics of all time: wry, sarcastic, but still somehow sincere.
Such an overlooked great guitar solo
This song is a part of my childhood, my life, my heart and soul, and my music. God bless American folk heroes like Bruce and the E Street Band, telling the truth like it is with the passion the truth deserves.
Amazing performance 🎉
Nils! F*cking fantastic!
BOSS!
God we miss you Phantom and Big Man. There's no band on this planet fit to tie the bootlaces of the E Street Band
Nils makes this one of my favorite live songs ever he’s incredible
Top 5 Springsteen song for me - chills everytime
After so many years I still gets blown away by this live performance by the E Street band, and that Lofgren is in my opinion the best ever recorded live....such a unique style and out of this world control he has over his guitar. This man is a real musician in my opinion and can sit in with just about everyone.......listen to Unplugged Neil Young as well, this man is a legend.
I Was There... Simply Great Concert 🎵🎼🎶🎤🎸😎
I'm French. I live in a valley that is called " The valley of Angels " 'Coz all the of the towns there are named with "ange" at the end, which means Angel. The same story goes here. From 150000 jobs to nought over 10 miles in 50 years. 2000 jobs/ mile / year destroyed. I'm also part Scottish, west coast, where the coal & iron indutry packed it up. My Father's a German teacher, so I saw what happened to the Ruhr Valley, stronghold of heavy industry. I listen to this song and I cry EVERYTIME. Got family in Ohio and a Pastor friend in Struthers just next to Youngstown. Only darned shed I saw was from a FRENCH company. Miles of rubble. WHERE THE F**K DID WE GO WRONG ? Some things are VITAL, you just don't let them go. How do you fight without steel ?
Nicolas, not sure I grasp all of your post, but I think I could summarize (for French, Scottish, and German workers, in an American context)..." we gave our sons to Korea and Viet Nam; now we're wondering what they were dying for." Any war, any time, is advertised as "to preserve our way of life...". Springsteen, I think, is asking, "what about when we preserve YOUR way of life, then you destroy OUR way of life?"
The power and the magisty night after night after night. The legendary Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band...
Such a wonderful piece of music! 💖
They absolutely rocked this live!!!!!! Wow that’s awesome!
Killer solo too
Greatest band in the universe at this point, and Nils...
He sucks compared to that of a Clapton
In questa versione Bruce e impressionante!!e Nils!!spettacolare!!😇😇tutta la band ha il mio applauso!!😅😅😍😍😍😍😘😘😘🎸🎷🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶💯💯💯💯
It just occurred to me that this is heavy metal. Springsteen wrote a heavy metal song.
🤘😎🤘
Folks you better try to save this, the BEST LIVE or WHATEVER recording of Bruce!!! BEST compilation of songs PLUS KICKASS AUDIO!!! Hard to find concert!!!
has there ever been a more underrated guitar hero as Nils??
Impresionante interpretación, Nils y Max magistrales. Aunque sólo fuera por este tema, mereció la pena pagar por una entrada. El paso de los años no ha dejado de hacer que me emocione verlo una y otra vez
I loved you always Bruce
Gennie xo ❤️
You are not a lone 🙂
Here in northeast Ohio, back in eighteen-o-three
James and Danny Heaton found the ore that was lining Yellow Creek
They built a blast furnace here along the shore
And they made the cannon balls that helped the Union win the war
Here in Youngstown, here in Youngstown
My sweet Jenny I'm sinking down
Here darling in Youngstown
Well my daddy worked the furnaces, kept 'em hotter than hell
I come home from 'Nam worked my way to scarfer, a job that'd suit the devil as well
Well taconite coke and limestone fed my children and made my pay
Them smokestacks reaching like the arms of God into a beautiful sky of soot and clay
Here in Youngstown, here in Youngstown
Sweet Jenny I'm sinking down
Here darling in Youngstown
Well my daddy come on the Ohio works when he come home from World War Two
Now the yard's just scrap and rubble, he said "Them big boys did what Hitler couldn't do."
Yeah these mills they built the tanks and bombs that won this country's wars
We sent our sons to Korea and Vietnam, now we're wondering what they were dying for
Here in Youngstown, here in Youngstown
My sweet Jenny I'm sinking down
Here darling in Youngstown
From the Monongahela valley to the Mesabi iron range
To the coal mines of Appalachia, the story's always the same
Seven hundred tons of metal a day, now sir you tell me the world's changed
Once I made you rich enough, rich enough to forget my name
And Youngstown, and Youngstown
My sweet Jenny I'm sinking down
Here darling in Youngstown
When I die I don't want no part of heaven, I would not do heaven's work well
I pray the devil comes and takes me to stand in the fiery furnaces of hell
Thank you
All of a sudden I can't get enough of Youngstown 🤩
Nils’ solo is unforgettable on this version.
Doesn't get much better than angry bruce
Happy birthday, BOSS..
Man...Nils' lead is something else
Danny in the heaven smile..
Absolutely an amazing version of this song..
It's full of good things
Bruce does his very best, when he's angry as hell, like he seems to be here. I love it.
