Sunday Morning 2016 Bruce SpringsteenTalks Autobiography Book 'Born To Run'

[@GuusjeReijnen-Linssen]

Awesome friends

[@michellehalpin7995]

I believe Bruce's depression came forward after Clarences passing. That was the final blow, so sad. All the pain he carried for so long, losing Clarence his best friend, a part of him left. Rip "Big Man"🙏

What a beautiful man with a beautiful spirit

[@williamtaylor2412]

LOVE THIS WHAT A GREAT MAN THIS IS JUST WONDERFUL TO LEARN ABOUT HIS LIFE

[@mikemchugh3073]

Never took him all that seriously, I liked his radio hits but that was about it. And then I went and saw him live....the energy, the minor based chord structures to his songs, all went straight to an emotional place I didn't realize he might bring out in me. I wouldn't say I'm an over the top Bruce fan now, but I will say that I have immense respect for him and his journey. How he's managed to call his own shots in the crazy business of music I'll never know, but he's done just that. For that and his ability to touch an individual emotionally if you'll allow; has changed my perspective on him forever more. Run on brother, run on.

[@WordWoman111]

I felt the same way. Then I read his autobiography. I now have such respect for his creativity, how he handles his business and his life.

[@mramirez3226]

I love this legend so much!!! Rest Easy Clarence Clemons, you were Magical.

[@sharonaldridge3332]

It is difficult to comment on this video. I'll try. When someone who's a giant openings up in such an honest and vulnerable way, I want to totally listen with all my 'heart', show deep respect and accept the story as it's told. There are artists of different genres who have suffered from depression and some have succumbed to it. I acknowledge the journey of all. Faith, courage and strength determine much of how we might cope with personal adversities.

[@dandonovan9683]

Bruce is the man.....lovely man, husband,father, son,entertainer,songwriter, friend to all though his music

[@staceyhorton228]

Love this video!! Shows so much of the personal side of Bruce!! Love his music!!!

[@johnjoannou7496]

What a musician. ..but mostly what a human.I love you Bruce

[@westwass]

I love Bruce so much! I just so enjoyed his book, I could relate so much to his childhood and his battles. I grew up in a suburban (Canadian) Ford neighbourhood with a mother who "loved me but couldn't stand me" and we, too, mended those fences later in life. I so got it. And it's funny, I guess, in some way, this is why I was drawn to his music when I was around 17. And my husband, when we met, the first thing we learned was that we were both Springsteen fans. What are the chances of that? There isn't an artist I love more.

[@derrickmurphy9988]

True hero legend gent what a man.gives it all for his fans.

[@scottcoraci4327]

Gives you EVERY penny worth

[@georgiethumbs2438]

I read his book, one of the best I ever read. The stories in it cracked me up. Like the time he was in California looking to make it in the music biz, he must have been around 21, and he tried to start a band and met this drummer at a music store and the drummer says "Come over my place and we will jam out"..So Bruce goes over the guys house and he finds the "band" in a garage and it's all kids like 12 years old playing guitars that looked like something they got for Christmas LOL! And he said he didn't care, for 4 hours he did his whole act and rocked the neighborhood. What an awesome story and shows how cool the guy is. Anyone else would have walked away. One thing stupid he did though, is he said the whole time he was playing in bar bands - something like 10 years - he never paid taxes. That was DUMB admitting that because the IRS could charge him with tax evasion

[@SUNMAYDEN518]

I'm sure if they came after him he could pay the irs anything he owed

[@jasoncoleridge5872]

Springsteen was wild on-stage and conservative offstage, while Clem was conservative onstage and wild off-stage.. that's showbiz folks.

[@peppik]

I love the man.

[@nadiaconseillant8616]

I never read the book or saw the interviews

[@bobbiemanniello5096]

I know "Glory Days" is about my parents!! but switching the name Bobbie(my mother's first time) to the Boy name in the song!!!! Well, That's what I like to believe!!!! anyways!!

[@SUNMAYDEN518]

hard to understand how someone so rich, healthy and loved by all could be depressed

[@splinband]

"The morning we left I sat on a bench overlooking the Pacific with a very straight middle-aged enterpreneur from Texas. He was lost in freak land and a seeker at the facility. I asked him why he was there. He said simply, "I've made a lot of money and I'm not happy." It'd be years before I'd have to wrestle with that one, but there was something about him that touched me." (Springsteen: "Born To Run", 131) Even Bruce himself probably couldn't understand that before, but I assume those are the things that just hit you one day.

[@Deliquescentinsight]

The topic is incredibly hackneyed, because it is so common-the world is filled with people either seeking money, or those who have it and wonder why they do not feel all the fulfillment and sense of completeness they were promised. We are told that is where the magic place is, the land of riches and being able to buy anything you can dream about. Surprise, unless you have developed your soul, unless you have capacity to feel and appreciate life it will all be empty, hollow and just another indulgence. People will want to be your friend so they can hopefully get rich from you themselves-they do not care about you at all. The empty promise, the gold plated dream turns out to be a hoax, unless you have something very basic, the capacity to love and be completed by other people. This is why our suicide rate is bigger than the global road toll. People spend all of their time seeking money, success only to find they forgot to live.

[@habyss]

People have a thermostat for a level of happiness. Even those who achieve wealth, fame and success return to it.

[@silkegehtyoutubegarnichtsa892]

Well, it took me to read all the way to page 11, to get the idea. ... Seriously, at that point it was obvious, especially considering the circumstances of the time, there wouldn't be a happy ending to that, best cae, just optimized adapting.

[@deborahbrooks5667]

Perhaps learn a little bit about biologically based depression. Crucial neurotransmitters are misfiring. When it is biologically based, it can be triggered by a traumatic or painful event...like Clarence dying. However, he has written about when he was 30 driving all the way from NJ to the west coast and turning back to keep from killing himself. He first sought help then and is very open about going to a therapist. I admire him for being so open about it as it may lead someone who has been suffering, particularly men who are more reluctant, to get help. The depression It comes regardless of circumstances and can be the most frustrating and horrible to deal with because you DON'T KNOW WHY it's happening..things are GREAT! and yet, you feel like you've been hit by a psychic freight train of roaring despair. Long history of it in his family and his father was eventually diagnosed with schizophrenia .

[@ReturnOfTheJ.D.]

Some of the shows are very good value for the money. This is not an artist who underdelivers at all. However, we all have our not so good (wouldn't say bad) nights once in a while. Let's just say, the Boss doesn't have many of them at all , and you're likely to find his shows the best value for money you can find. I'd say he's a bit off once in 200 shows - good enough odds for me. My advice: take that bet. A bolt of lightning can also hit the show - I remember when he changed tack totally and played The Wild, The Innocent and the E-Street Shuffle in its entirety one night, with the full band. I never knew that album properly until I saw and heard that brilliant performance, which was note perfect start to finish.

[@rossanafioravanti8526]

Skialfa? That Italian surname should be pronounced as in Shalfa. Sh sound. Please.

[@janjones4536]

ohhhhhhhhh im so depessed im a billionare boohoohoo

[@tomburke8173]

he doesn't have a voice left for a long tome now.

[@tomburke8173]

take the money away and see how depressed you are.

[@jonluzzi3015]

Watch over your shoulder boy

[@tomburke8173]

max weinberg has to be the worst drummer ever.

[@davidbarbour5153]

Because he fits the band and compliments the other members?...Dont talk shit.......

[@MusicMasterTasmania]

Absolutely not, and I will tell you why. As a multiple attendee of Springsteen shows, I can tell you Max is the glue that holds the band together. He ALWAYS watches Bruce, ready to punctuate any strike of the hand or any movement he makes with a drum hit. The whole band has to be ready for Bruce to call out a song that is not on the setlist, because Bruce will change his mind or take a request from the crowd. But most importantly, the E Street Band rarely. stops. playing. They literally go from one song to the next without a pause. Bruce counts off the next song, and Max and the rest of the band are right there with him. That is something I have rarely seen any other band do, and that is why they are up there with the greatest backing bands of all time. Max is a fantastic drummer.

[@villainouse]

MusicMasterTasmania agree 100%

[@habyss]

Does he also complement them?

[@sharonaldridge3332]

habyss ..what do you think? Springsteen speaks of a brotherhood.. and that involves showing appreciation.
