If Bruce and the band walked on stage, played this for 3.5 hours and walked off I wouldn't complain.

[@jerrisilver2]

Here I sit drowning in the fear of the Covid 19 pandemic. Outside and on my TV screen images of protest, of violence, of peace, of hope, of a brave new generation play over and over. I lost my 33 year old son, David Silver, in 2007 and have been raising his then 3 year old orphan son ever since. I am 71 now and David's son, Aaron is almost 16. It's been years since I allowed myself to listen to these heart-wrenching songs Bruce tore from his soul. I am old enough now to actually KNOW I am mortal and my time will be coming. As much as I long to see David on the other side, I long even more to have every single second I may be granted by God to love and comfort my son's son, Aaron. Even though it is not in my power to decide when I will have to go, I can't keep the tears from filling my eyes whenever I look at Aaron, knowing I can't be here for him forever like he thinks I will be. There is only one Bruce and the emotion I know he tears from the depths of my soul actually scares me. That is why I stopped listening to these incomparable pieces of musical genius several years ago. I can't believe some of the comments on this thread are from a mere week ago. We all will pass on, like poor George Floyd, but even when Bruce's time comes, NOBODY and NOTHING will ever erase the sweet power of his genius.

[@stanleyjohnstone2867]

Ronald you have done a great thing with your life. David would be so proud of everything you have done. The true definition of a man is how you raise a son and you have raised two. Gods speed x

Never owned a 69 chevy, nor a camaro, but this is still the best song by Springsteen. The cars are kind of metaphors that help me connect to other things that are important to me. To me it tells "you will die one day, so do your best to live every day in your life"

I am a 63yo female who grew up with Bruce. This song tears at me. I'm at a crossroad in my life and trying to find reasons to keep on keeping on. I feel lost and broken inside. The part where he speaks of some guys just give up living, and die a little by little, or something like that, it's not verbatim but tell me what does it mean at our age to keep racing in the streets? I'm looking for answers because I need a reason.

Wow, here I am 2 months later and am in awe of the replies I received. Thank u for your words and sweet sentiment. I am feeling better, I work as a Registered Nurse and for a long time, I couldn't go into work. I would freeze and turn around in the parking lot. I think I was burnt out having worked frontlines during COVID. I am seeing Bruce 3/16/23 in Philly with my BF from high school. A day before my birthday. I can honestly say I'm happy at times, a feeling that was so removed from me for so long. Thank u...if you are ever in SC hit me up. I'll buy you a drink and we can listen to Bruce. Xxxxooo

[@jessevanderwal2816]

Hi bridget, So nice to read you’ve gotten better. Its hard working on the frontlines in times like these. Hopefully you’ve found strength to keep racing in the street in your own way. ;) Have an amazing time in march. Let us know how it was :). Ill wait for him in Italy and the netherlands !

[@herbertrichard614]

Stands with "Thunder Road" and "Darkness On the Edge of Town" as Springsteen's best songs. As beloved as he is Bruce will always have detractors because he has never shied away from writing about despair in a society that tends to deny it.

[@raywelk9429]

1973 This song takes me back to a Saturday night in a small town in the Midwest. My hometown. Hot and humid, after dark on the north side of town between the railroad tracks and the cemetery a mile north of town. John Haley with his 302 69 Camaro and Ronald Bakko and his 66 Chevelle SS396. They raced several times, the sound of those 2 cars in the distance... I listen to Bruce do this song and I'm right there again. Even met "the girl" that evening, Roxanne with her beautiful long red hair. True to the song, I drove that girl away. I was 17 then, 63 now, life has been good, Bruce's music just gets better with age!

[@wendelldolittle5063]

From freehold to asbury to seaside we grew up racing in the streets. It was the 70’s in Jersey. Now almost 70 we’re still racing in the streets, on i-4 and 75 in Florida. What a life!!!

I can't help but feel grateful for the timeless masterpiece that is Bruce Springsteen's "Racing in the Streets." This song, with its haunting melody and poignant lyrics, has touched the hearts of generations of music lovers. The way Springsteen captures the longing for a life beyond the mundane, the desire for escape and the hope for something better is truly remarkable. His ability to weave together themes of love, loss, and the human spirit is a testament to his artistic brilliance. I am grateful for the countless hours of joy that "Racing in the Streets" has brought me and for the way it has touched the lives of so many. This Thanksgiving, Thank you, Bruce Springsteen and his enduring legacy of music that continues to inspire and uplift us all. The jamming part with piano and rock music is awesome.

This performance simply blows my mind. The song is obviously legendary and one of the most powerful of Springsteen gems. The performance is so intense, it bends gravity. The band starts off cool - almost restrained - and then, the pressure builds up towards the end like a boiler on the brink of explosion. Springsteens voice is gritty like a bag of rusty nails. Your eardrums are scratched and your heart pierced. The band roars underneath the surface like a wild animal dying to be let loose. One of my all time favourite performances.

[@CPSJSMSUUMUGA]

I agree. Except... the problem I have is I feel exactly the same way - that I've just heard his greatest song, and the greatest at least since the invention of amplification - after about 20 of Bruce's. Incident on 57th Street, For You (Hammersmith Odeon), Backstreets (1977-78 with the Sad Eyes, Drive All Night, You Lied interlude), The Price You Pay, Wreck on the Highway, Jungleland, She's the One (with the 1978 Buddy Holly, Not Fade Away intro), Girls in their Summer Clothes, American Skin (41 shots), Land of Hope & Dreams - throw a dart. Speaking of throwing a dart, the mystery to me is how someone ends up Bruce Springsteen, and everyone else? Not.

There are many great versions of this incredible song. IMO, of those I've heard, live, and on boots, this is my favorite. Roy's brilliant piano is present, but it doesn't dominate the rest of the band. We can hear every instrument, but especially Bruce's gorgeous playing. Racing in the Street is a classic example of the Whole being more - much, much, more - than the Sum of the parts. The song is so stunningly beautiful I can't help but feel lucky to be alive in a world that contains such magnificent art - and thankful that, for whatever unknown reason, to be able to appreciate the genius of Bruce Springsteen.

one of the greatest song i'v heard. This version is simply amazing. the notes from his telecaster are lethal. all musicians are at their best

[@paoloing7520]

God bless you Bruce! You and the E Street Band... Great like no one else!!!

[@bradpfeiffer6776]

Bruce has a big catalogue and this is #1 for me. So much love for the music and lyrics. Complete theatre.

[@josepg.2479]

it doesn't matter where o when Bruce plays, he's an absolutely genius. One of the best, if not the best, single songwritter of our time.

[@davejones6812]

The first time I ever heard this song I wept. I couldn't believe how much a piece of music could go straight to my soul. Still love it 30+ years later.

Als er ooit een betere song geschreven word als deze ..valt die nog steeds in het niets bij deze ..best ever

Tonight my baby and me, we're gonna ride to the sea, and wash these sins off our hands.

As I am reading Bruce's amazing book, the chills do not stop. What a treasure this man is for all of us. There will never be another Bruce.

[@lesleyvanzyl4333]

Never. Ever

[@johndicker8303]

There's everyone then there's the Boss!!!!

[@GrikWorldNomad]

And he always has been a treasure.

[@CPSJSMSUUMUGA]

Sadly, you're probably right. It'll be a hundred years, if ever.

[@jimmybraum942]

God speaks through Bruce. Bruce is enough of a good man to listen, and write it using his God given talent.

[@zoejones3762]

Every time I hear this song it has been tweaked a bit. This version is my favourite especially the extended instrumental at the end. It’s genius, haunting and perfect in every way. If I had to pick only one song to listen to for the rest of my life it would be this one 💕

[@craigkearns6425]

I first listened to this song as a very young man obsessed by all things hot rod, I remember being disappointed by it but in fact I just didn’t understand it. I listen to it now as a man in my fifties (still a hot rodder) and am so deeply taken by what is a musical masterpiece by one of the greatest artists of this and the last century.

[@mresch8]

This is one of many songs, of this man's, which I can't leave until the last note is played...

[@harveymushman2219]

I love it when a song transcends music and takes on it's own life and yours and mine and rolls on and on....

[@paulchisholm3305]

We have be blessed with so many classics from Bruce it could actually dilute his genius! However such is the brilliance of the man, his abity of storytelling filled with lyrical diamonds nobody can or should underestimate his legacy. This man's music along with the fantastic E Strret Band has accompanied me through some of life's highs and lows. A perfect friend for the journey through life. Racing in the Street reminds me of endless summer nights as a teenager. One of the classics. It is a sad but certain fact of life that we all pass on and I will miss and mourn Bruce like a family member should that sad day come before my time! Thank you Bruce, thank you for being there and guiding us through our personal journeys in this life. ❤

[@teenastetic3681]

For anyone who isn't a Springsteen fan I would encourage to listen again...any parent taking their kid to a concert thank you for keeping great music alive god bless

[@mikewilliams3384]

Fantastic musicians all of them. Drummer, Pianist, Saxophone and Guitarists. Led by the totally brilliant Bruce Springsteen. Top man. Seriously brilliant.

[@MikeSmith-pk4rz]

Can't get enough of this song!!

[@davegibbs6592]

Love this and Bruce, had a '70 Boss 302 w/Hurst 4 speed and unlimited potential when this song came out. Made a few wrong turns but thankful to still be here.

[@russharper5660]

There's only one boss songs like this keeps you alive but only Bruce fans will understand that .he's the only artist that puts tears in my eyes.

[@heryrajaobelina2744]

Racing in the street, thunder road, darkness on the edge of town, the river..... genius you are Bruce

[@jimmybraum942]

Bruce's music is what makes the world worth living in. He cuts through all the waste, and gives us what we need. Each person hears his music in their own way, abd what they hear is life changing. There's three things that change a person for the better, falling in true never ending love, finding God of your beliefs, and hearing the music of Bruce Springsteen. Im glad to live in an era with Bruce Springsteen alive. It is truly a bright light in an otherwise dim world.

[@kennethshort2016]

This is probably my favorite BS song. I think it ages so we'll too. I love the Hyde Park version for the way his voice cracks and breaks a bit..it sends chills up my spine but makes want to cry at the same time.
