I came out of a Dublin pub one cold December night; Glen was walking right in front of me. Just outside the pub two young teenage boys were busking. Glen stopped to listen, me too. After a song or two Glen asked the kids if he could play a song with them. The young boys were blown away with him. And he stayed way too long from his girlfriend’s point of view. Glen the main man in Dublin. Loved very much.

[@Divadellecurve]

then that's not the right girlfriend sorry haha

[@robertturner540]

awesome storey,thanks

[@markdel497]

Glen is a poet and a just a great guy. His talent and humility are both at the same high level. He does not forget his friends and is the man you want to call your mate. One of a Kind.

[@markdel497]

As a side note... I saw Bruce preform Drive All Night in the early 80's in Jersey with Clarence and Glen's duo with Bruce is just as good if not better and I've been following Bruce since '75.

[@boboinkl]

I lived in Dublin in the late 80's. Glen was a regular busker and performer at the Dave Murphy sessions upstairs at McDaids. Guy was always top gentleman and kind.

[@anatchuv]

Has there ever been a better special guest appearance at a Springsteen concert than this? If so, I'd love to see it.

[@kimark7375]

Bruce just smiling when Glen sings.... That’s why he’s the boss, he knows talent when he hears it too. Rock on Gentlemen 🌹

[@kindnessfirst9670]

As a college student turning 20 years old back in December of 1980 I lost my virginity to the first girl I ever loved the night before seeing Bruce live for the first time. It may be wishful thinking (or the fact that I have been a huge Bruce fan since Spring of 1979) but I could swear this song was playing on her stereo at the time. 42 years later I have two grown daughters, a wonderful wife of 3 decades and I am still friends with that girl from 1980 (who I have known since 1977).

[@RD-ds2cc]

Love this song so much. Originally by Bruce of course, but Glen just adds his special touch to make it that much better. It’s like it was written for him to cover. ❤️ Love this duet with them both.

[@ebeers23]

Lost one of the most dear people in the world to me this morning, and I feel like Bruce (and Glen) are singing directly to me. Tears streaming down my face I know things are going to be alright.

[@markknopflerisnot]

Two greats right there.....Glen looks so pleased to be up on stage with the Boss.....his version of this song with Eddie Vedder is brilliant

[@GreenStreams]

I absolutely love Glen's version with Eddie Vedder & Jake Clemons.

[@brenny2506]

And I was there that night!!

[@anncartner3393]

Glen is my new hero.

[@mjw12345]

Glen is a great character - he's so appreciative of other artists. Him and Marketa were magic.

[@sdrtcacgnrjrc]

Gave me a new appreciation of Springsteen and Glen Hansard (i.e. moved me to tears for some reason)

[@Yesica1993]

I hope this audience understands and appreciates how fortunate they were to see this!

[@ryanaindreas]

o i was, its was spellbinding

[@noreengentleman4077]

trust me, we did we did!! it was such a brilliant concert.

[@BrightBlueRose72]

I was there! Loved every single second of it!

[@musicfreak611]

every audience that sees bruce live needs to understand that

[@legin3753]

Glen is an epic singer

[@corrazin]

If there’s two artists more passionate about what they do I’m yet to see them. Love them both.

[@jennyskaggs6736]

I love how Glen sounds so Irish. Some artists lose the accent when they sing but Glen sounds fantastic. Always.

[@arfer]

Glen's non-stop grin is the best thing about this video.......he's loving it!

[@philipbrady1039]

Imagine the euphoric rush glen experienced once he sang his first words ,the appreciation of the crowd , the approval , being a humble man that he is I bet bet he could of cried with joy , wonderful performance by both men

[@bobbieenke350]

excellent, glen so under rated

[@kathleenneafsey2075]

The musicianship of everyone on that stage is impeccable. What a beautiful collaboration of these two voices ❤

[@jenniferh8961]

Soooo gorgeous!! I don’t know how I missed this song of his, just so grateful I found it now 🥲 ♥️

[@victorvelazquez7416]

Same!

[@philliptaylor991]

That was special. And the sax gets me every time!

[@popculturista]

I've always thought this was the most romantic song -- not just of Bruce's, but most romantic song I've ever heard.

[@dotfern3010]

I Love the saxophone in this song... Wow.. ! ❤

[@anthonysalvati5868]

at 6:21 Bruce brings the band down from that incredible "heart and soul" high of Glen and Bruce sharing vocals, with just a slow wave of the arm...so perfect, maybe one of the best Bruce duets of all time, and there are a lot to choose from.

[@lsd2772]

I love Bruce's introspection here. He gives props to Glenn..almost paternally...like "yeah...this kid has it" even though Glenn is far from a kid. This video is full of win on so many levels.

[@TheJamiealex]

[@seanpatrickkeane3781]

Magical. This had me smiling the whole time. Bruce got that look of someone so happy when someone else can sing your own song with the same conviction 😎

[@RicardoE.Aguirre]

Bruce and Glen poured their hearts into this song!...Amazing!

[@paciphish]

These two boys are on the same page. Just listen to the music and the mutual respect they have for one another comes shining through . I am so fortunate to hear these two perform together. Thank you for sharing this video. Very special.

[@charlesdoherty9879]

Glenn Pratt , your comments are 100% bang on the money

[@rockmeamodeo]

This has always been my favorite song of Bruce’s. It just burns in the soul. Now this is my favorite live duo. Just a massive song and performance ❤

[@lollerkids]

life needs more epic sax solos

[@StudioSamSmith]

Danny Kelly haha so true . Never realised til you pointed it out

[@scottb721]

Be the sax solo

[@glennathea]

Always more sax, always🔥

[@lindareyes353]

Teary eyed. Miss the big man.

[@jeffstevens4262]

If there was ever a greater love song written, I haven't heard it yet. God bless you Bruce. Greatest ever and we love you.

[@1SapphireBlue]

I literally just got chills and a tear in my eye hearing Jake play the sax. Never heard this song before but I just love it! I don’t think any other version could be as passionate as this one.

[@arundhawan8574]

@Amma's World, enjoy. kzbin.info/www/bejne/bKbZY3qLntF-na8

[@TheMisterMonkeyman]

I've never been much of a Springsteen fan. But as I get older, and see him with other artists I really like, I start to get his appeal. It was a brilliant move to have Glen play with him at an Irish gig. Peace.

[@govtmulestevo]

love glen, had bruce on covers of newsweek and time. our textbooks for current events. Nixon was on a bunch. But bruce sounds better here than then. have to check out latest. After I listen to this a couple more times class of 76

[@TheJamiealex]

TheMisterMonkeyman go to a concert close especially with his horns. Back in the day it was just Clarence, Steve, The Prof., Gary, Danny, and Max.

Absolutely amazing! Life is short, enjoy it!

[@pelotasdad]

the only problem with songs like this is that they have to end.... this was magical, especially with the view of the stadium filled to the brim. everyone is on the same wavelength, regardless of where they are sitting, when springsteen and his band are playing...... he takes us somewhere wonderful as if it is his sole purpose in life. saint bruce, the melody maker.....

Fricking awesome, the joy of Glen and Bruce is just infectious.

[@maryvallettakeith6146]

WOW...just wow! The Boss on high harmony killing it! And such joy between them all. These brilliant musicians truly are blood brothers. Nothing makes me feel quite as emotional as a Springsteen song. This is music and this is love.

[@julysaiz1]

It's so amazing, getting feelings that I can't explain, absolutely wonderful!

[@gertrudnussbaumer2233]

just beautiful, two such great, soulful voices together, with this heartbreaking song, could not be better, thanks for it!!!

[@dawnbryant8778]

Omg! Has there ever been a more powerful soulful song ever, Ever!!!!

[@adyyoungmusic]

Bruce's face shouts 'damn, he's doing this better than me!'

[@laurarominger2073]

When I fell in love with this song did not know it was a Springsteen song. The guy I had just started dating bought me Glenn’s EP with song on it because he knew I loved Glen. I fell in love with the song. My new guy liked it but had to make fun of it. The shoe buying part and not having many lyrics. Haha. We will have been married now for 5 years this June 21st. Our love of music helped bring us together.

[@yongadog]

This is quickly becoming my favorite Bruce tune.

[@kevindaly3902]

What an honour to perform with the big man.

[@lovelight1]

Perfect voices together, meant to be xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

[@williamknell864]

Fantastic! Jake's tone in his first solo is wonderfully familiar. The look on Bruce's face, it's like he's feeling a pleasant visitation. Oh yeah, the singing isn't half bad either! {]B^{D}

What a gracious moment from Bruce...to give up the stage to the next generation...and then to share it with them. Beautiful.

[@NancyGful]

I wonder if Bruce ever watches his videos and thinks - This is a really great song! Bruce is so generous with his duets.

[@MariaCarvalho-td2ty]

When i was on school a friend mine uses to listen Bruce Springsteen and recorded me a cassete and i listen and sing this song to many times. To many time ago and now too.
