BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN - ONE STEP UP (BEST VERSION EVER, ACOUSTIC, GREAT SOUND! 1988 TOL-tour LYRICS)

[@geofffletcher]

Bruce has provided the background music to my life for the past 40 years.

[@Linda-pw8gx]

My god, me too

[@deniserowley8549]

Same here.

[@SKPONATH]

My God same here ..

"When I look at myself I don't see the man I wanted to be". "Somewhere along the line I slipped off track". Gets me every time.

Damn… These lyrics

[@christmasglobal4276]

1988 The year I married. This is the first song that I danced to with my husband to be. Right then and there I determined that there would be no slammed doors or dirty little wars. Thanks Bruce.

[@rey3472]

Good on you. 1988 was the year my parents divorced after years of slammed doors, dirty little wars, and worse.

[@jwaynes71]

kinda strange to play a marriage struggle song on your wedding day.

[@Ms3ladyo]

@@jwaynes71 It was the first song that they danced to (‘first song that I danced to with my husband to be’), not that it was played at their wedding

[@jwaynes71]

@@Ms3ladyo thanks I misread it. I see from the song she learned not to do the don't in order to have a good marriage later.

[@4winds773]

I have had days were the only thing that got me through was a Springsteen song.Thank you Bruce

HVAC broken, truck broken, relationship broken, bird broken, bells broken, and still men, as thick skulled as we are continually dreaming of holding our lover all night in spite of all the things we’ve neglected to keep maintained. This song is deep and rather profound in regards to the human condition or at the very least the masculine condition 😢

[@mathmusic1490]

So true. Bruce was 'ruminating' a lot when he wrote this................

[@kimberlygreenwald6637]

Being held all night long might be just what I need to feel safe again and loved. I forgot that feeling.

This is indeed a fantastic live performance. He rarely performs this song live any more, and when he does you can tell he hasn’t practiced the song in forever. This post is a true gem.

[@ladytron5000]

Hi I don’t know what acoustic is.

[@mrmojorisin8752]

@@ladytron5000 Just means he played it with heavy emphasis on vocals and acoustic guitar; not a full band electrified version of the song. But Yeh, is this truly acoustic? There is electric guitar etc.

[@tonyreilley2842]

When 'born to run' became 'born to cry'. Bruce was always one step ahead of my life.

[@ramsahadeo9487]

Today I am unwell a 69yo man who might have slipped off the track to some. I just tried my best all along. Not perfect.

[@Roswitha04]

No one is perfect..we all make errors and we all have regrets...

All the best Dude.

[@jimwelsh997]

We have all been blessed to have Bruce Springsteen to give us music like this. THANK YOU BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN THANKS BOSS

[@valquiriapaulinobueno627]

VERDADE... nascer na mesma década é um privilégio...🤔grande Boss ❤️❤️❤️

[@mathmusic1490]

What else to say? He's helped me survive!!!!!!! Thanks Jim.

[@annereidy7981]

The man is the poet of our age.

[@mkrj2576]

This is my favorite song. It’s been part of my life since I was a child.

[@reinvest83]

One of his best songs!

[@ipal1407]

This is one of the best versions of this song I have ever heard. When one speaks out of the depths of his soul. This is a very hard place for a man to go. We have all been there at 1 time or another.

[@cw9817]

While written about a deteriorating relationship, much of this song is applicable to any tough situation in life. The Boss is our great American troubadour.

[@jimwelsh997]

This is one of those songs that is so damn true

[@mikeberg5003]

I had been out of an extremely toxic marriage about 3 years before this song came out and hearing it for the first time in 1987 it was like he was writing about my life. Same for the song "Trapped".

[@michaelkeith2207]

An outrageously touching piece of music.

[@furatal-samaraie3884]

This tune has been playing in my head for the past 12 hours.

[@AntBeeCatDog-gd1vy]

This is one sweet song that will never grow old. He shows his heart here

[@PamDukovac-ie3dk]

He sure does

[@johngrohs8031]

I think this is one of the greatest ballads Springsteen had ever sung, written and you can hear that in his voice, he's passionate about his songs, and that's why, there's no one that can sing like Bruce Springsteen and I say this with all respect to all the singers that are singing right now and to the singers of the 80s, 90s, 2000s, 2010s and today, He's such a magnificent singer, songwriter, he's a legend and he'll always be a legend, his songs will always be timeless including this song right here, this is a timeless passionate live version, almost an Early 1990s Version of this right here. The Guitar Sound in these versions like the album version is almost like U2 vibes!. You can name I'm on Fire, Thunder Road, Atlantic City, Nebraska and others the greatest Springsteen Ballads, but I don't think there will never be a great ballad like this song, it can't be beat. Springsteen is amazing at what he does! And that is why he's one of the best singers out there and he will always be!

[@jamesaslevin]

Agree❤

[@mathmusic1490]

WHAT A GREAT LIVE SOUND THEY GOT.....including Bruce's vocals. WOW.

[@Carpediemdeluxe]

Springsteen is in a truly diffrent league of his own, completely unmatched in terms of muscianship and connecting to people through said music and lyrics.

[@RiverOfHate88]

I'm sitting here in this bar tonight , and all im thinking is this song is going on repeat for hours 😁

[@francisogle8320]

[@allenheywood2430]

Just a brilliant song brilliantly performed.

[@springsteen-gaslightfan213]

This was an epic tour, I`ll never forget when I was at the concert in Sweden in 88, an incredible night!

[@rossellaquebella308]

L" ascolto ogni giorno dall' alba al tramonto nn mi stanco mai è semplicemente Stupenda una vera opera d"Arte grazie infinite Mrs Bruce.

It's the same thing night on night Who's wrong baby who's right Another fight and I slam the door on Another battle in our dirty little war When I look at myself I don't see The man I wanted to be Somewhere along the line I slipped off track…. My goodness such beautiful but sad lyrics ❤

[@MichaelG-oc1oc]

Ones either in love...or butt hurt over the one..heartbreak isn't the result of any mistake...it's fruit of death...move on...one who loves isn't far..and the one breaking your heart is already broken.....love is living..let it be..

[@mikeltolman7622]

Why is this song not on his Greatest hits CD? Wtf?

[@mrmojorisin8752]

I agree. I rank it among his top few songs, which is high praise indeed. I can’t think of a better ballad, and he has many great ones, such as Moonlight Motel, One Minute You’re Here, and Lift Me Up.

[@davidbalzano7025]

True. Fairly big hit when released and the video was on MTV and VH1 nonstop when released but it's not on any hit collections. It would be a welcome addition.

[@mikeltolman7622]

The greatest hits album Needs to be re done! The powers that be should be Fired until this song is on it! BASTARDS!

[@8ackbiter434]

Greatest songs that were never hits and didn't make the Greatest hits album and in many cases didn't make any album (10 cd collection)
