Bruce Springsteen - Glory Days (REACTION) First Time Hearing It

[@kathieovercash8414]

Great song. I loved the glory days. The 70's and 80's was such a great time to grow up. Best music ever created. I'd live those decades over 1,000 times if I could.

[@mikeadair3341]

Love Bruce Springsteen and the E street band. They always seem to be having a good time. He did a song about my hometown of Youngstown Ohio called Youngstown. It's about the collapse of the steel mill industry. The song hits me hard because I was just about to graduate high school and would be heading towards the mills for work, but when it came time there were no jobs.

Bruce Springsteen was one of my childhood crushes. At almost 47 years old, he still is 😁😁😁

[@scottNNJ]

“The River” and “Rosalita (Come out Tonight)” are my two favorites by Bruce. Completely opposite ends of the spectrum, one is slow and sad, the other is energetic and upbeat. Both masterpieces.

[@SaeedReacts.]

Thanks for the recommendations. Have not heard those yet.

[@akdec0092]

@@SaeedReacts. Definitely check out live versions of them! The River performed in Tempe 1980 is great, and Rosalita performed in Phoenix in 1978 is awesome as well!

[@cfraase]

@@akdec0092 Good choices.

"The glory days are ahead of us." Well said. Look fondly on the past and optimistically to the future.

[@kathieovercash8414]

I didn't realize how great school was until I dropped out when I was 16. I had no idea I'd never see most of those people again. It's just something you don't realize. We moved. After being out of school and working a job that would get me know where I went back to high school at 18 and graduated when I was 20. It meant so much more the last two years. I enjoyed every minute of it.

[@hannejeppesen1809]

One of my favorite Bruce songs.

[@bethphillips9693]

Bruce is the man - I have seen him in concert about 5 times and it's always epic. I have so many music CD's of his. I love him.

[@1955billc]

Great analysis, Saeed. I was a big Bruce fan back when this was current, haven't listened to him for awhile. Thanks for bringing it all back home! Great song!

[@qadgopthemercotan]

My glory days were/are spent going to Springsteen concerts. First one in 1977, most recent one was this year. With about 2 dozen concerts in between

[@SaeedReacts.]

Awesome!

[@michaelatkinson8291]

I think we'd all like to go back to the glory days of the 70's & 80's of rock music, when our favourite bands were still young, hungry & at their peak. Old father time can do one 😆

[@SaeedReacts.]

Sounds like great times!

[@missblondie2393]

I grew up in Freehold New Jersey (Bruce's hometown) that being said till this day he'll pop in unannounced and randomly jam with local bands playing at the bars throughout The Jersey Shore Still lives in New Jersey Works out in my friend's regular gym Not everyone agrees with his politics ( Bruce just sshhh) he's one of the few that didn't let Fame and Fortune change him His concerts are over 3 hours of pure energy

[@christineschmidt8501]

Make memories. They're all you're left with one day.

[@Ciclopea2]

This song definitely hits differently while your glory days are happenning and you think awww Vs. when they're mostly behind you and you think ooohh lol

[@jessicacoleman4673]

Bruce is definitely The Boss! Please check out Hungry Heart, Brilliant Disguise, Dancing In The Dark and Cover Me!

[@mitchellbeston1033]

I too, can't help thinking of The Sopranos whenever i see Steve Van Zandt. "There's no geographical solution to an emotional problem" - Tony Soprano

[@cindyphifer970]

Love Bruce. Human Touch and Pink Cadillac are 2 of my favorites by him and his band

[@johnmcdermid6896]

My favouirte Bruce song changes on a daily basis, the river, Philadelphia, I'm on fire, and that's before you start on the rocking stuff...keep up the good work my friend...

[@bazkeen]

A great song from Bruce 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 Probably my favorite is The River. I think you will really like that one

[@SaeedReacts.]

Will add it to the list. Thanks!

[@stevesullivan8705]

Sherry Darling live from the legendary no nukes concert will knock you out of your chair.

[@janeramirez8767]

In case you missed a previous comment: Professional baseball is HUGE in Japan. Also in several Latin American countries, including Venezuela, Panama, Puerto Rico, the Dominican Republic, Cuba, and many others.

[@davidvsr]

instantly takes you back, doesn't it!

[@davidvsr]

Baseball is huge here in the U.S....considered America's Pastime

[@wlg1223]

For pro ball also big in Japan.

[@markmurphy558]

THE RIVER and FIRE are two of his most atmospheric songs. There is a live version of THE RIVER (LA Coliseum)😅 where he has a long monologue before the song about his relationship with his father that will reduce you to tears.

[@JeanlucPerez-u3g]

Jungleland live Madison Square Garden 2000

[@timithius]

Great song! Personally, I prefer the "Born to Run" era, but Springsteen is an icon, with a stellar catalog. I just looked it up. "Born to Run" came out in 1975. 50 years ago! OMG I'm old. 🙂

[@jamesbondbond8388]

jajjajaj Yo soy de España y viejo también , recuerdo con cariño estas canciones de Bruce !!!!!!!!!!

[@SaeedReacts.]

Definitely will check out more songs by him!

[@dankofanz]

@@SaeedReacts. Then may I recommend 'State Trooper' from Bruce's Nebraska album. As a writer I think you'll like the lyrics. What has the narrator done? What does he plan if the state trooper stops him?

[@dmj4966]

I a gree on The River ... great song

[@bob2shred894]

Speaking of glory days, I used to have a mixed tape that had this song on it followed by Billy Joel's- keeping the faith. My friends and I would make tapes by adding a song and passing to the next person to add another. The catch was they had to somehow connect to the last song. I didnt add either song but who ever did thought long and hard and added keeping the faith because of a line in it that goes" Cause the good ole days weren't always good And tomorrow ain't as bad as it seems" Havent heard either of these song's in a long time.

[@hannejeppesen1809]

The women in the white pants and red hair, is Bruce Springsteen's wife, although i don't think she was at that time. He was married once before to a model/actress Julienne Phillips I think was her name. However, he Patty had more in common, music, music.

[@threekidzmom04]

Great song! I had some fantastic glory days! This takes me back to them.

[@SaeedReacts.]

Really great! This song definitely is filled with a lot of nostalgia!

[@MikeWalsh-f1g]

Saeed I recommend for you Bruce's Darkness on The Edge of Town, the 1978 title track of maybe his most underrated album. Dark, foreboding, reflective and passionate with some deep lyrics that you should thoroughly enjoy 👍

[@Randsurfer]

Get busy living, or get busy dying.

[@KKDZ-sn3gi]

Love this!❤

[@MattJocks]

Remember him doing this song on the last episode of David Letterman's first late-night show before he switched networks. It was a big deal because Bruce didn't really do a lot of TV and Dave was a total fan. Bruce jumped up on Paul Shaffer's piano for the big finish. It was great.

[@Roy-mw5js]

Commercial side of Springsteen 😊

[@YeungSze]

To get some upbeat songs about factory guys longing for partying after the shift, check Bruce's "Out in the Street".

[@daleenengelbrecht4861]

Saeed. You should write a song : Music in the machines😂 Love this song. Thank you. Greetings from South Africa

[@daleenengelbrecht4861]

Just have to mention; over here we LOVE rugby. Seems like minutes ago I was jumping, cheering, yelling, telling the referee what to do and that was Saturday. A BIG one this Saturday. Now you know what I do Saturday nights😂

[@fan123casual8]

Great reaction. I like this one because it’s fun. It’s got meaning, but it’s not too heavy. For a Brice suggestion, I always recommend Rosalita (Come out Tonight) Live in Phoenix 1978. The album version is great, too. But Bruce was/is known for putting on a great live show, so the live one gives us an idea of what it was like.

[@sad99q]

Good one, Saeed. Thanks! And aside from the U.S., baseball is big in Japan and the Latin American countries.

[@canadian1677]

Great Choice AGAIN

[@SaeedReacts.]

Great song! Thanks for watching.

[@scottdebruyn7038]

Electric Guitar, A Fender Stratocaster to be exact. That's where it's at... especially if it's finger-picked. Here is someone playing lead in the style of Mark Knopfler, mixed with the original track from Dire Straits on 'Down to the Waterline'. This guy isn't Knopfler, but he's damn good and you get to watch how it's done! I've suggested 'Wild West End' to you, Saeed (studio version, if you ever do), but it's going to take a tune that others will chime in on and say "Oh Yeah!! That's a great one by Dire Straits!" to get a response from you. So, fellow Saeed fans, watch this Dylan Guitar solo and then chime in on how great this song by Dire Straits with Saeed, and perhaps he'll bite on it, then maybe my 'Wild West End' request! Which, if you like 'Down to the Waterline', you'll probably like 'Wild Wet End'. 😏😼 kzbin.info/www/bejne/i16cnqqXnaaVfNEsi=gkkutAQOZNhE6sli

[@robmacdonald6932]

Great song. Would love to see a reaction to Badlands

[@SaeedReacts.]

Will add it to my list. Thanks for watching and the recommendation.

[@robmacdonald6932]

@SaeedReacts. Thanks. I tried sending a donation and a request for a song by Linda Eder yesterday. I hope it went through but I'm not sure if it did.

Bad News Bears with Walter Matthau 1976

[@barbaracollins385]

A feel good anthem for us boomers. We remember our Glory Days with smiles on our faces. The best days of our lives.

[@Randsurfer]

But the theme of this song is that living in the past is kind of pathetic.

[@hackermusic3355]

I never saw this video before but I loved the song because I was a baseball player in college. I'm about half glad I never saw the video because the throwing mechanics might have ruined the song for me. (jk) My favorite Springsteen song is Youngstown. It's a blue collar anthem of sorts.
