[@MarcLeventhal]

I am one of Springsteen‘s biggest fans. Own every song and I’ve seen him in concert 10 times. But this has never been one of my favorites… Until now.

[@playnitloud4252]

Rob is Brilliant!! could watch an listen to him 24/7 :)))

[@mikejames509]

So talented, Rob! Thanks for making this song sound better than what we're used to hearing. One funny thing - I used to mix up the secret meaning of the the song Dancing With Myself with this song. He he he. To each his own.

[@bigbullsfan1]

One of the greatest if not the greatest singer songwriter of my generation. At least top 5.

[@Blood-Fartz]

That's not saying much.

[@justmissjamey]

[@evacameron8670]

memory of Drivers education this was playing at the time

[@ibtehajuddin4044]

I get up in the evening and I ain't got nothing to say I come home in the morning I go to bed feeling the same way I ain't nothing but tired Man I'm just tired and bored with myself Hey there baby, I could use just a little help You can't start a fire You can't start a fire without a spark This gun's for hire even if we're just dancing in the dark Message keeps getting clearer radio's on and I'm moving 'round the place I check my look in the mirror I wanna change my clothes, my hair, my face Man I ain't getting nowhere I'm just living in a dump like this There's something happening somewhere baby I just know that there is You can't start a fire you can't start a fire without a spark This gun's for hire even if we're just dancing in the dark You sit around getting older there's a joke here somewhere and it's on me I'll shake this world off my shoulders come on baby this laugh's on me Stay on the streets of this town and they'll be carving you up alright They say you gotta stay hungry hey baby I'm just about starving tonight I'm dying for some action I'm sick of sitting 'round here trying to write this book I need a love reaction come on now baby gimme just one look You can't start a fire sitting 'round crying over a broken heart This gun's for hire Even if we're just dancing in the dark You can't start a fire worrying about your little world falling apart This gun's for hire Even if we're just dancing in the dark Even if we're just dancing in the dark Even if we're just dancing in the dark Even if we're just dancing in the dark Hey baby

[@crazybeautiful2me]

[@ImaMonaKnight]

love it xx

[@carlottap63]

yeah we scored front row! It was awesome!

[@RKTno1fan]

I wouldn't care if he got all the words wrong! I could listen to Rob sing anything. He does covers better than anyone, regardless of if the lyrics are spot on.

[@amyanda]

RKTno1fan He may have changed them on purpose too. The whole point of love music is that it's LIVE, not static. People don't get that... :)

[@silvermurphy658]

I love listening too him,he is all that & more,I like Bruce But think about it you can understand Rob,a lot better. ❤️ 😂

[@whitandnate]

Many times they change a few words. Some songs are fine that way. This one is great either way.

[@christinegreen4174]

Yes ❤️ it! ✅✅✅

[@bradleyedwards786]

Funae how u find thing's out about people.. People never change and they never stay the same,, and just my luck I'm stuck in the middle because I don't know what this means.. great version..

[@carolinaserra6963]

😍😍😍😍

[@christys8445]

[@margieferguson7861]

Helll yeah play that guitar sweetheart 😍🥰💓😘💗💋❤️

[@BurnNotice2023]

This sounds totally different than Matchbox 20 Live, they sound almost studio Live

[@robertsellman6315]

dabraham227 :

[@silvermurphy658]

Wow at least you can understand him singing the words,no offense to Bruce but Rob is all that & more. ❤️

[@anelladambrosio2513]

FE. NO. ME. NA. LE.... 🥰😍😘🎶🎸🎶💘❤️💋💯💯💯💯💯

[@AnotherBadyoga]

I like this cover, I love the Boss and really like Thomas too. MOst of the covers are too darn slow

[@lisautley9267]

If you need to know i feel better ever day

[@FreyaRidley]

Rob, could you just sing the phonebook and play your guitar? Please?

[@LoyaFrostwind]

Or the piano. He's wickedly good at that too.

[@carlottap63]

Thank the barrier! I just rested the camera on it.

[@Zackarysmackary]

Damn.

[@k247a]

I like Bruce, Rob is the best.....

[@tracysharp4406]

He kills it I love him so much

[@pilotandy72]

brother is using a pick!!! One of the few times!!!

[@TNT4LYFE72]

[@GBake93]

Morning and Evening should be flipped in the beginning, otherwise great performance!

[@donniemoder1466]

The Born In The U.S.A. version is still the best.

[@meganheller404]

Check him out!

[@sinjon]

Shame he got the lyrics wrong because this is a pretty good cover

[@hevel1670]

Rob can song the alphabet and i wud buy it

[@SusanDavis-mt3qe]

Is there anything Rob can’t sing? Just found this, hate to say it-I think it’s better than Bruce’s version! “Can’t start a fire 🔥 without a spark-Rob certainly can!!🔥

[@margaretwontner4245]

This is awesome but lacks whatever it is that Bruce has... as wonderful as Rob is

[@heyhandersen5802]

i luv u2 but you need a soul percussionist to play the bosses' masterpieces.

[@marian3516]

hey handersen , this is just Rob Thomas. No relationship to U2, more like Matchbox twenty.

[@carlottap63]

come on Alec that's awfully nit picky don't you think? Usually when he does covers he only rehearses them that day. So for practicing it one day i think it's a great version of the song. Besides I've seen artists screw up their own songs that they've been singing for years.

[@carloscenteno1766]

Britney spears should sing with him

[@KenGombold1104]

I get up in the evening, and I ain't got nothing to say, you started off incorrect, nice try dude.....

[@lisautley9267]

No its not

[@lisautley9267]

To late its been to long i will not make the same m****

[@macody89]

He singswrong lyrics in the first line...

[@whitandnate]

Mathias Macody Lund Many change a fee things - it isn't their song... copyright..

[@clockman45]

he does it better than bruce springsteen

[@peggyelliott3541]

Better than Bruce ❤
