Bruce Springsteen- Dancing in the Dark (cover by Lauren O'Connell)

[@albatros777]

I come back to this performance every so often. Something very moving about your arrangement and performance.

[@ThePeaceableKingdom]

A great cover makes you hear a song for the second time, all over again. This cover made me hear it for the first time.

[@Golden69Touch]

Two parts: 1) This is excellent! 2) I have to admit, when I received your newsletter that spoke of tour dates, including Canada and I got super excited... up until the point when I realized it was only a West Coast Tour... Come to Toronto, tomorrow preferably. Or during your next round of touring, if you can't come tomorrow.

[@Beartracks777]

Very beautiful..the way you perfected that song ..every tune you do. A beautiful you.

[@luisbarrera1099]

Lauren love embrace the talent God has given you. Im happy for you little sister. I love how you put together your music. Plz continue

[@PauloCTorres]

I don't know why but your songs/covers always seem to reflect my mood. It's awesome. Thank you, Lauren, for your music.

[@Petaurista13]

5:15 Please. I'm from Poland and it's 2019. Still listened to it. Second time today... Also I don't have money to go for concert anyway. I still listen to this every time. Actually I love this part. Also: I've edited this comment like 6 times because of orthography. English isn't my mother language...

[@hxhdfjifzirstc894]

Lauren certainly has a unique way of covering songs in a way that comes through as very personal to her. I love it.

[@StupedKid]

I'm keeping this window open and refreshed in case I lose power due to Sandy, give me something to dance to in the dark :)

[@brunerousse]

It seems like forever since the Gretsch and the banjo have been in the same video. It makes me feel all nostalgic. I think I'll go watch all of your videos from two years ago now.

[@zonalklism]

Almost every cover you've done has been better, at least in my opinion, than the original/widely known version.

[@beigesthetic]

zonalklism true mate

[@w.j.warden5427]

Agree except Roland! That song needs husk and rasp. The rest are great tho!

[@paavobergmann4920]

@@w.j.warden5427 I actually liked the sad, haunting vibe on the Roland cover

[@marcusgault9909]

@@w.j.warden5427 I disagree, I absolutely love her rendition of "Roland", the song that got me hooked on Lauren's music.

[@todroach3738]

An outstanding cover. it does not diminish the original, it just adds a new perspective and appreciation, that is the art of a good cover.

[@Johntheslothking]

If I was a famous musician, I think I'd spend at least a couple nights a month getting drunk listening to covers of my own songs, amazed at the influence I had on other people. Bruce should be proud of this one.

[@dennydoug]

Lauren you are awsome keep up the good work

You can come and visit Chile next year! Our country is like a SNAKE (streched)... but I guess there's not a big fanbase down here, but you'll get nice sights and you can ramble all you want and I'll invite you a beer or two. Oh! and honestly I didn't have high hopes for your version on this song, not that you suck, but it's just that is such a great song so I wasn't expecting much, but YOU ROCKED IT BIG TIME! You miss are a PRO.

[@metaldeath0]

So beautiful and talented. Hope you make it big someday.

[@Commodore5555]

I love you Lauren!!!

[@timdangerous]

She has made it! She's like the biggest star ever dude!

[@johnhernandez9863]

Wow! Love your version. What a talent!

[@Huysmansk]

"middle-aged male music geeks"? If that is what it takes to be really touched by what you do with music in general ... COUNT ME IN! :) Seriously, excellent again ... I'll make sure to get that new Covers album. Btw, love your "Quitters" as well! Is there somewhere a live version of "Every Space" around? I'm from Belgium, and can - unfortunately - not visit one of your concerts coming up ... Take care

[@morelshroomgirl]

You have always always simply amazed me with your talent and voice. I wont be able to make any of your tours....I live in Kansas. I wish you the best of luck and look forward to more videos from you. Good luck.

[@DNSviewer]

Great cover and great album. I'm looking forward to attending the tour to see how she plays all those instruments at once.

[@Jeffdango]

Seeing that you had something new up really made my day. I'm going to take it as a personal favor, so thanks!

[@methenytrio]

Coming all the way from Minnesota to see you in Sand Diego! Well, visiting my Dad also has something to do with it. I love your music. You are very musical. :p

[@azzy123]

Enchanting as always, I hope one day you'll play in europe, I don't care if it's in ten years, it has to happen.

[@kimmolingonheimo]

29.10.2012 was one of my birthday, it was a year my father died, Im 54 years old now, Thank You Lauren O´Connell( or husband..for your luvly input on this planet earth, be shure to have the best guitar oversrive in the world: MI AUDIO Cross , luv K : ) ( Im a guitarist and a songwright)

[@theMacAlastair]

Yes, I do. I live in NH, currently, but I try to make it up there as often as possible. Have you been there before? It's big enough that there's always something to do and small enough that it's hard to walk through town without seeing a familiar face. I love it. I've heard it called a mini San Francisco on the east coast, but I couldn't say. I've never been there.

[@cbagnall]

well i live on the west coast....but it is Perth Australia and i do care that im being stupid...lol...............great song i love everything you do

[@cayocasiolonginos]

next song in youtube mix: rodhesians never die

[@kenjisakaie6028]

Good song, but the best part is the irony.

[@WojciechP915]

MajorSamm crew checking in

[@MindlessZombie2006]

Bless you for covering my high school music ... and doing it so well :) Very much look forward to you discovering that North America has 2 coasts, and making it to the other one. Florida is warm and inviting!

[@wb5584]

Your covers, as well as your original material, are so amazingly crafted. I know it sounds corny, but you breathe new life in to the old and give wonderful new life with your own material. As a neverwas songster of old, I am so grateful for your sounds. I wish you many, many years of music making.

[@cloudmerchant]

Beautifully done.

[@phynx2006]

Congratulations you were number 1 of Fuse's top 5 music videos, great job :))

[@Catcher2412]

imho : an intimate but still extremly powerful reinterpretation of great song. Lauren your talent is something special.

[@axelc.5914]

still one of my all time favorites, i really love your way to cover songs, greets from good old germany

[@josorio63]

Felicidades desde España Lauren, siempre es un placer ver y escuchar tus trabajos.

[@mastrDC]

If your music career doesnt work out, you can always try as a comedian. The ourtro in this video (and others) is pure gold! I love both your music and you explaining whats going, in a semi chaotic matter.

[@moniquewalker7943]

I like it! I am thinking I will see your show in Seattle. Good luck with your work.

[@SeekToBeSought041140]

Lauren really has got some talent; that's for sure. But she totally blew this song outta the water. Completely nailed the cover Mad props, Lauren.

[@wozzle76]

Dancing In The Dark,Im absolutely in LooooVe with your Version....Well Done! And Ya BeautiFul... (Love Australia)xx

[@BrendanAshton]

Obviously an admiration of Springsteen, I love the way you put your own slant on classic songs, I wish I could master one instrument the way you have several, but I lack the patience, and I'm too lazy to practice. Good luck with the new album, I will get it soon, have a good tour all the best. from me.

[@oldanduncouth]

i rewatched this video right after the first time i saw it... "in front of the piano" cracked me up, had to see it twice...

[@lowkey1969]

I keep coming back to listen to this, year after year. It's better than the original sung by Bruce.

[@marcusgault9909]

Wow!, just wow!

[@mrshyamthapa]

This is the best version I have ever heard

[@aliasdyln33]

For me, I so love talent. And I see it so all throughout this video. Please just give us more and more.

[@matthewmalkin]

woo new cover. Loving it already. Amazing

[@nathanforce7174]

hey, so this specific version of this song has been playing in my head all day. thank you. = )

[@bigninja27]

I hope you can find a way to come out to Las Vegas for a show next year, that would be awesome.

[@GusGoneSolo]

Wow.. You just on getting better and better! Awesome Cover btw, love your vocals.

[@fyodor5955]

You are wonderful.

[@dawndoucette6530]

Great! you are so very talented Lauren!

[@kortneyduffy3328]

One of my favorite songs and one of my favorite artists harmonized into a sweet Halloween treat for my ears

[@PalmerstonAve]

Love how you put your personal mark on a Springsteen classic. I think I can speak for all the Springsteen fans out there (yes I have that authority): Well done! I am downloading more of your tracks and hope your touring eventually brings you to Toronto.

[@deebuzzin3603]

I prefer your version than the original. Just hits me deep in the soul at this point in my life

[@fransvenrooy4760]

Beautiful!!! Great performance and superb voice.

[@paulelliott3220]

Truly excellent version Such an amazing version and you stamp your own authority on it and make it very memorable What a wonderful artist Wow

[@Roadsaftyslowdown]

Fantastic, Lauren please tour Australia.

[@hysteria232]

So much respect for making this vid. Can't even comment on how awesome this is. Congrats!

[@xxsilveyxx]

Great song, great cover. I love this. :) It's so nice to hear new stuff from you.

[@brentchustz]

man, how i just love your sense of humor!!! you make me laugh and that is hard to do!!!

[@KareemHenein]

Beautiful I just luv you! Keep it up

[@mbdtsmo]

When are you coming to Europe ?

[@Cromaxor]

Geez that was a fresh air in my ears

[@supertrooper84]

Wow. I never really liked this song before, but I do now. You seem to have a talent for changing songs I don't like into songs I do like. This is a good talent. When you start travelling next year, please come through Memphis. Or Nashville. Or Jonesboro. Pretty much anywhere remotely close enough to drive to would be good.

[@DopamineOverload]

You're wonderful, Lauren. Nice to see another video from you. It's been a while.

[@meganmondegreen]

hahaha i love the comedic timing with which you splice your talking self together wonderful mixing, it seems like all the tracks are at just the right volumes, which i think must be difficult. also love the bike. also just love that you are still making music and videos (: i put on your album when i am working. it's really been a thread through my life the past couple years! thought you'd like to know.

[@joshpaul7]

it would be great if you could make your way to Milwaukee! Would love to see your show...

[@urzokmx]

YAY!!!!... I'm buying this album on iTunes while I'm watching the end of the video... gratings from La Ciudad de Mexico ;)

[@RideM8]

I'm watching Springsteen Live on Broadway right now (Netflix), just made me replay your BETTER version !

[@bensdadfrank]

No doubt that you are serious. Good job. Nice job on Zevon . You are a hell of a musician.

[@Sj1bby]

I just love everthing here: -the music -the sound that you gave it -the video -the talking after the video -the comments, half of them are of you responding to everyone Keep uploading the good stuff, I hope a lot of good will come to you!

[@Ch1spy4]

I got here via autoplay from listening to your version of "Roland the Thompson Gunner" Great song!

[@lillithfan82]

You won me over in less than a half hour!!

[@Jaaaadore]

Hello Lauren. Beautiful, i missed your music

[@madhumangaldas333]

You just kicked that songs ass ! so sweet. thanks 4 givin' me hope 🙂

[@Eduardo-fc4nm]

Ufffff, Bruce tiene que estar orgulloso de escuchar su canción adaptada por ti. Es increíble 👍

[@DendroicaVirens]

I don't think I could listen to this too many times. Your arrangement has all the emotional intensity and rock 'n roll élan of the original...somehow. I like your melodic bass playing, too. Maybe, you should try Wild Night.

[@mdavis261978]

Lauren this is a great cover! One of the best I have ever heard and love your voice!!

[@Gnulash]

New favourite cover of that classic! Well done :)

[@dutch104]

I've thoroughly enjoyed the music that you make. I think I first saw you with Julia Nunes covering an REM song. You are very talented and I do appreciate the goodness that your music brings to my life.

[@CMLittleboot]

Great cover and what a crazy cool Album cover! Good luck in all you do Lauren!

[@drumtrackfactory4443]

More stage it soon?? btw I love this song, and I think you did it justice. The cover is fantastical, and I was actually dancing and singing along while cleaning my room..... Should I admit to the dancing part?..... ah ya why not.

[@Riffcoms]

[@jamesschmidt5813]

Love this version!

[@eagle2125]

[@brandonwolfe371]

Not sure if you've gotten noticed yet but hope so. Best of luck to you. You cover some of the masters of music in an exemplary manner.
