[@MrsPenPal]

Hi all this energy 🔥🔥🔥. Wanna hear from you! Like & Subscribe ✨. Let’s connect: linktr.ee/mrspenpal

Clarence Clemons ... Bruce loved him. You can see that in the way they react together. Together from the start. All his band members were valuable to the E Street Band.The Big Man had heart and soul .. He had a choice between Pro Football and Bruce ... Only things he kicked was the jams ... Miss you Big Man ...

[@deborahbrooks5667]

It wasn't a choice with the NFL---C was going to play with the Browns but was in a car accident that blew out his knee and he couldn't play

[@joanboronat7403]

Im 22 in i cry when i listen to this album in general. I feel sad that nobody i know even listen to The Boss (only my dads). So much energy and passion and hope. If someday I become someone it’s thanks to listening to his lyrics. Just leaving this here. Have a greta day lol

[@CAnderson-nq7zk]

Lots and lots of people adore Springsteen have done for half a century, never gets old, go for a deep dive all his albums , incredible stuff, enjoy

[@kevinbundy7422]

My suggestion for your second reaction would be "Jungleland" live in New York City. It showcases the whole band, and the saxophone solo is EPIC.

[@MrsPenPal]

Hi Kevin

Hope your day is going well

[@deborahbrooks5667]

Oh man....YES. 9 minutes of perfection with the 3 minute saxophone solo from C.

[@ianrawlings102]

Great reaction, watching the emotions running across your face added to an already brilliant performance.

[@rosamontenegro4875]

It's always about Bruce and the band energy! But Bruce's songbook is so deep, rock songs, folk songs, country songs, love songs, angry songs, inspirational songs...the list goes on...he's been the poet of my life since I was 14 yrs old, I'm 61 now! My favorite forever is Thunder Road...the poetry!

[@landywilson]

I have really been enjoying the Motown album he put out a couple of years ago. If you haven't heard it it's called "only the strong survive".

[@AKR8810]

You described Bruce Springsteen perfectly with the words passion and energetic. He was one of my favorite performers in the 1980’s, and I would say he was to the 1980’s what Led Zeppelin was to the 1970’s. He has many great songs, and my 2 favorite are The River and Born in the USA. I used to get tears in my eyes listening to The River because it was so sad and such a real 8:13 8:13 8:13universal story. His bandmates performed with him for many years, and if I remember correctly he married his back up singer. He gave a speech about U2 when they were inducted into the Rock Hall of Fame and. Bono said he has the gift of the gab. I think it was a great idea reacting to some of the musicians you enjoyed on Band Aid. I enjoyed your reaction and I’m glad you’re back.

[@MrsPenPal]

That’s interesting

[@Indy1831]

Springsteen & the E Street Band are the greatest American Rock & Roll band ever!

[@user-oe9hj9yl7m]

The best live performer ever

[@brumleytwitch6265]

Bruce is in his 70s now and still plays over 3 hour concerts.

[@MrsPenPal]

That’s Impressive!

[@draguladirt]

My personal opinion is that this band has the most fun ever while playing (The E street band) - his longest concert was over 4 hours but a normal concert probably averaged around 3 hours at least, Plus he had many side projects - truly one of the greatest performers ever.

[@mikecaetano]

"Born to Run" is the title track to Springsteen's third studio album released in 1975. It was his breakthrough hit and the album rocketed up the charts so quickly that Time and Newsweek magazines put him on the cover in the same week. Springsteen got so excited by the national media attention that week that after the concert he played in Memphis, he went and climbed the wall to Graceland, Elvis Presley's mansion to celebrate with Elvis. But Elvis wasn't home. Springsteen's concerts are legendary for their energy and enthusiasm and length. He's been known to play four hour shows every so often, more so when he was younger. Sadly, Clarence Clemons, the big man on sax, passed away ten years ago. Springsteen's catalog is large and deep, running 21 studio albums, including such classic songs as "Blinded by the Light", "Tenth Avenue Freeze-Out", "Prove It All Night", "Badlands", "The Promised Land", "Rosalita (Come Out Tonight)", "Hungry Heart", "The River", "Cadillac Ranch", "Atlantic City", "Dancing in the Dark", "Born in the U.S.A.", "I'm on Fire", "Glory Days", "I'm Goin' Down", "Streets of Philadelphia", "The Rising", "Waitin' on a Sunny Day", and dozens more. I'm partial to his work from the seventies, but I would suggest checking out "The Rising" or "My City in Ruins", two songs he wrote about the attacks on New York City on 9/11.

[@Penn57]

Love your response to my very favorite singer. I’ve been a fan since the late 70s and have see him many times. Back in the day he would play over 4 hours. My very favorite Bruce song in Jungleland (best saxophone solo ever) RIP Clarence Clemons.

[@mjeffn2]

Clarence!!!!!!!🎷❤🥲 Pure joy.

[@davidbordonaro1631]

since the early 70s there isn't a better live show than Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band !

[@romysan1]

Bruce is a musical monster.... great songs, great live shows. THE BEST !

[@williammuntzer7374]

Great reaction. I encourage to listen to the songs Thunder Road and Jungleland. They are both awesome songs.

[@sbalsamo410]

I’ve seen Bruce over 30 times and his concerts sustain me - even if I’m not a rabid fan. His music, his spirit, all of it, wonderful. The redhead is his wife.

[@FightingLionsFans]

Tenth Avenue Freeze Out live from New York is a must - it’s long but well worth it.

[@direlyon]

HAPPY YOU LOVE THE BOSS....please listen to I'am on fire......or Human touch...and above all The river....hugs from France

[@terryheyne600]

Born in the USA! Great song.

[@MrsPenPal]

Thanks

[@SteveA308]

You got it.

[@stevedahlberg8680]

Yep, the Boss. Part of the music of my high school years and if you actually check out his first album with Bruce Springsteen and the E Street boys, and read the lyrics, you will hear some pretty cool modern urban poetry for the time and for that situation. Just to give you an idea about his personality, of course he got really huge, they don't call him The Boss for no reason, but of course he reached a point as time went by where he was so revered that most artists that reached that kind of level end up going on these tours and the tickets are hundreds of dollars and it really has nothing to do with how they got started and why the original fandom got going. It's just the price of everyday life. He did a tour that was selling out way in advance and he did his best to keep the ticket sales down and because he was a dominant artist he could fight the label on it to some degree, and he got them cheaper than a lot of others but they were still expensive and in frustration what he did was so cool .... He would personally buy out several rows at the front of the whole front section up close to the stage, which the surrounding seats were going for hundreds of dollars which today would even be more I'm sure. And then what would happen as the show really got going and everybody was into it what was that he coordinated with security to grab a bunch of people from the cheapest seats in the house, the so-called nosebleed section, up near the top and far away and invite them down to occupy those front seats to enjoy the rest of the show. Gives you an idea about what kind of person he was.

[@jerrypost9651]

Great reaction, dear Blessing! ❤ I somehow never took the deep dive into Bruce Springsteen. I don't know why. He was certainly an epic talent. So I had fun, watching along with you and seeing him in all these different concert settings. Peace, my sweet! ✌️

[@steviesellers]

Clarence Clemons RIP big man

[@stephenkennedy6610]

bruce's concerts see him on stage for 4 hrs

[@SnoBear626]

I swear, every member of the E Street Band has an amazing story. Music, TV, Movies. If you start reading their bios it will open up more and more rabbit holes.

[@MrsPenPal]

Thanks I can imagine they bring so much energy and chemistry

[@doubleexoticokay]

you are so animated at the right times, meaning you really get it. i expect to hear more from you. thank you.

[@Thejazzfan66]

I played the cassette of the Born to Run album in high school. This was 1982. My friends didn’t like it. Two years later, everything changed…lol

[@nathansellers8454]

Bruce has a lot of great songs you should explore. Love your reaction Mrs Pen Pal. You say we love to read your comments but I haven’t heard you talk about your team if you have helpers

[@MrsPenPal]

I read all the comments myself and this channel is self run no helpers at this point. The “we” reading comments is in reference to us a PenPal Family with you included Nathan, love to write and read comments and connect like we have all these years 😅

If you want to see his ultimate Rock and Roll performance watch "Quarter To Three" from the No Nukes Concert.

[@edbluez99]

Saw him looooong time ago here in StLouis at the Keil Opera House (only 3500 seats) on back to back nights. Had enter a lottery to get tickets. Second night I was sitting in second row right in front of Clarence Clemons. Amazing shows.

[@pamagnolia]

His nickname is The Boss. That’s his E Street band😊

[@asdfqwer1234zxcv]

nice to see the band on stage, the studio version has a glockenspiel all the way from beginning to end, can't hear it on this live version

[@user-bh5jv8hi3b]

And now you know why he is called "The Boss" 🙂

[@paulvalerius3674]

Saw him many times. Great concerts. Like 3 1-2 hour long. And he’s very socially conscious in his songs. Try Born in the USA. And Rosalita. Started out in a small club on the Jersey Shore.

[@AnnaRoseMahoney]

Jungleland and Backstreets

[@SteveA308]

Jungleland studio performance is awesome.

Bruce tends to have no support acts because he plays 3 hour sets (with a small break). I have tickets to see him in July and now he is in his mid 70's I am just as eager to see him

[@MrsPenPal]

Wow that’s awesome

[@csmoultry]

I don't know if you've heard eddie van halen eruption Guitar Solo, but if you haven't, please react to it. He played the guitar in Michael Jackson's song, beat it. It's one of the greatest guitar solos ever. I hope you like it.

[@stanshames6024]

Considered by many to be the best live band: Bruce and The E Street Band. Check out Tenth Avenue Freezeout Live in NYC

I can hardly see the video. If you just pause once during a video, it won't be blocked. Making it almost invisible is a waste of time. You should always credit the E Street Band in the title. He formed the band, these guys all grew up together in Jersey, those guys are all brothers.

[@MrsPenPal]

Unfortunately that’s the only way they let it post, they blocked it from showing on here without making it this way
