The opening song of one of the greatest gigs I've ever seen - the opening night of the UK leg of the River tour in '81.

Whether he writes it or sings it, this man can turn any song into a clarion call, even when asking his audience to follow their own dreams..... My dream, Boss, is to one day get to a state where I have the ability to acquire the rights to your songs to put in my movies... how about that for a dream Boss??? Thanks for the song!!!

@Bleachfan604 The song Nils did at the show was "Man at the Top" (released by Bruce on Tracks). The Wise-Weisman song does share a paraphrased verse and chorus with Bruce's song. But if Bruce released it, it would certainly be credited to Springsteen (Lyrics and music) and Fred Wise (lyrics).

I'm surprised he never released this song. I think it's lovely.

Yes. This sounds nothing like the original and the lyrics are only vaguely close. However, Bruce sometimes introduced this as one of his favorite Elvis songs.

OH! That is beautiful. I love Elvis, but this isn't a song I have ever heard before, so I don't have a previous version in my head. But wow, what a great song and great performance. Lovely, thanks for posting it.

All you commenters that are talking about Elvis are NOT listening to this video...this is NOT the song Elvis sang in the movie "Follow That Dream." What a beautiful song, nonetheless, Bruce...Bravo !!

Beautiful. So different from The King's version. He sang it like he was in a hurry to get out of the recording studio coz the were several women waiting for him in the next room. (there probably were!! lol)

The 2 versions (Elvis' and Bruce's) are sung in different contexts, but both interpretations are fantastic !
@cougar242 жыл бұрын
You are correct. Bruce originally covered the Elvis song. Then during the Born In the USA sessions he wrote his own song with this title and and a similar chorus. He did a similar thing with the more recent song Dream Baby Dream.

too bad "The King" never wrote anything. Bruce is one of the greatest writers that ever lived.

I was at this concert in octyober 1986..Nils was there also and did a set. It was a song written by Bruce; however I can't remember the name...anyone out there have any thoughts? BTW Danny F is playing the accordian and Nils is on guitar on this song Follow Your dream (written by Bruce)
@quantumrr14 жыл бұрын
@Bleachfan604 Follow That Dream is not a Bruce song. It was originally performed by Elvis P in 1962 and was written for him by Fred Wise and Ben Weisman. Bruce changed the arrangement and a couple of lyrics but it's not his song.

who is he covering...cause the lyrics are different from the elvis' follow that dream--aside from the chorus, of course.

this song is not even close to elvis version except in title only. elvis was great but he had his own nich, while bruce has his. no judgement as to which singer was best.

Elvis Presley is dead, Presley did not write this, the chorus is somewhat the same as the Wise-Weisman song , but the verses is all Bruce. Bruce should change the chorus musically a little bit, change the title, then it would be another Springsteen classic!!
