Jackson Browne - Some Bridges (Live From Home)

Jackson Browne performs “Some Bridges” for the 2020 Steel Bridge Songfest.
SBSF is an annual music festival that brings together songwriters from around the country and the world. SBSF was founded in 2005 to benefit the preservation of Sturgeon Bay, Wisconsin's iconic Michigan Street Bridge. The weeklong event centers around a focused writing and recording collaboration called Construction Zone, culminating in a series of concerts celebrating those new songs, the artists that created them, and the community where they were written.
Recorded, Filmed and Mixed by Kevin Smith
Greg Leisz - Pedal Steel Guitar
Bob Glaub - Bass
Mauricio Lewak - Drums

LYRICS:
Every day I walk out in this torn up world
And I fight to survive
I'm laughing when I make it to the Saturday
And I'm alive
Carrying your smile with me
Carrying your smile with me
Everywhere I look I see this world slipping down
That low road, day by day
And I just go on working for the things I need
And making my own way
Carrying your smile with me
Carrying your smile with me
Take a walk on the troubled side of this old town
Take a walk on the broken streets and the buildings falling down
Look at all these kids with nothing but trouble in their eyes
Trouble in their future, trouble in their lives
Some bridges are falling down
Some bridges are still around
Take a walk on the shaded uptown avenue
Some people are doing well no matter how they do
And I know there's more to life than what you own
But I see so many good things, things I've never known
Some bridges are falling down
Some bridges are still around
Every night I listen to the sound of the street
Lying in my bed
I love to see the dreams that are dancing there
In the light above your head
And sometimes I get so weary
And when hope is caving in
You fill me with your love and your laughter, Baby
Until I get back up again
Carrying your smile with me
Take a walk on the streets of this divided town
Carrying your smile with me
Take a walk on the smoking edge of the battleground
Carrying your smile with me
Take a look at the situation
The poverty and the desperation
Take the time for the realization
Everyday I'm
Take a walk in the daylight
Carrying your smile with me
Some bridges are falling down
Carrying your smile with me
Some bridges are still around

This song seems to sound even better and make more sense today than ever.

[@deborahgreear5579]

Jackson Browne challenges us to consider the therapeutic possibilities of language. Heart to heart and soul to soul. Through a natural world as yet uncorrupted by the toxicities of enmity and cynicism.

[@DanielLopes-jt8yl]

And that ladies and gentlemen is how it’s done. Man just the 4 of them!

[@debbie4503]

Who else would like to browse through his books while he's sitting there singing? ❤

[@MelBee128]

He made another video where he is sitting closer to the books and I actually paused it and zoomed in to see titles. He has very eclectic taste in books!

[@MyWorld-sy9el]

Now that's Jackson Browne !!!

[@elghoutibrahimi7593]

thank You very much god bless You long life to You i love You from the years of 70... You have always been my favourite singer and my best teatcher

[@kenni123064]

This is the Jackson Browne we all know! You sound “AMAZING “ Jackson and damn, this little band including yourself sound so incredibly fantastic! This is how it is done! Current musicianship “Generation Z” take note on how to write a real song and sing with feeling! His vocal tone, none of you will never have, but hey you can’t have everything.

[@brealistic3542]

His voice hasn't changed a bit. It is still wonderful.

[@patrickbeck3285]

I loved the original version with JB and the master maestro David Lindley. This version is excellent as well. Some bridges are falling down. How appropriate indeed.

[@marybutler-kobziar6020]

Met Jackson in Garrison NY at a fundraiser for John Hall in a barn. There were cows downstairs. Good times. Spoke to him and Pete Seeger 🙏🏽❤️

[@ikkenhisatsu7170]

Still great. One of the best ever. A true poet and a memorable, great, soulful voice liken other.

[@denniscalafatilotto]

Way back in 1981 i was living and working at the Century Plaza Hotel ..one night i stuck my finger out and started hitchhiking to Hollywood..a man in White BMW pulled over and picked me up..and drove me to Hollywood ..it was Jackson Browne the singer ..we chatted i told him i was from Melbourne Australia he said his Girl Friend was from Australia ..i never forget that night Jackson ..

[@gogoymuana-mz5zu]

That is so cool !

[@TheLittletrees]

We have the ability to pick ourselves up as we came from a generation to be survivors in many ways. TY ✌️

[@frankabney5850]

He is such a loving, expressive man with so much talent and ability... I love his sound, his music and the memories I have of and with him

[@JuniorFarquar]

Do your research. Our heros are less than.

[@lisak5157]

@@JuniorFarquar as are all humans - especially artists. It’s on us to understand where creativity comes from and keep perspective. Don’t perpetuate false rumors.

[@JuniorFarquar]

@@lisak5157 artists are more human? You're nutz. Ask Darryl Hannah

[@lisak5157]

@@JuniorFarquar um… I was responding to your comment “our heroes are less than”. And my response was “all humans have flaws” - and artists are no exception. Sorry if that wasn’t clear. You should do YOUR research. But it’s nice you think you’re so “in the know”. Old news that’s unfounded. Be well.

[@KATHIESHOES]

This somehow missed my radar, so it’s like a brand new song for me! Jackson Browne could set the phone book to music, and the world would stop to listen! Best of luck on the tour!!!

[@peteb5996]

The soundtrack to my life for nearly half a century and sounding better than ever. Jackson’s music will never stop.

[@starman2420]

Finally, a rocker that lets that lap steel guy let loose with some decent chops, and melodic fills. That piano was sounding pretty good, too!

[@madroseaustx7386]

I ❤️ this song! Thank you, Jackson!

[@marciarichardson2314]

Love this song. I haven't heard it live in a while. Hopefully we will be rebuilding bridges broken over the last 5 years and building new bridges, both literally and figuratively, between all kinds of people, as well as highways and byways.

[@gioiaferrante]

He's still handsome and great. I was a 3 year old girl when my hippie babysitter brought him over and played one of his earlier albums. You're still amazing and I was lucky enough to meet him and his family at inductions. Great moments in life. Amazing tune

[@KAPhelps]

Lifelong fan! Love you so much Jackson!!!

[@LilyRose8959]

I love this song. Thanks for sharing Jackson.

[@hargoniyamaki5168]

Timeless voice. He is an inspiration on every level, a kind and peaceful man.

[@ralphdavis9670]

What a great country.

[@seanmcgarvey2924]

Another wonderful song has crossed the Atlantic bridge to a beautiful sunny day here in Ireland. Hope you get to play here soon.Thanks for posting all those wonderful songs.

[@miktoh]

I tried this, not to look at the screen but just close my eyes and hear the song! And JB sounded exactly almost the same as 30 or 40years ago, that unmistakable voice with great lyrics that flows through your blood n makes a nice clear dream!

[@1962LIBBY]

The man is a poet.

Hi Jackson. I'm a local Southern California girl. Just picked up your tune while sitting on the couch eating breakfast contemplating my day. It's always great to hear you play. Love you to the moon and back.

[@Gpcavana819]

Amazing how his voice never ages.

[@kevinbishop6582]

He has great phrasing but his voice has changed with time. He sings a lot of his songs in a lower key now than he did in his Younger days. Check out some KZbin videos and you will understand what I mean.

[@wendywenger8120]

🤎✌🏼awesome. Thank you so much for sharing with us. I could watch you play that piano and sing all day long! ✌🏼🤎
