Look up humble in the dictionary and you will see Bruce Springsteen. What a beautiful man with a beautiful soul.

It's wonderful how he saves Clarence for the last, even after his wife whom he loves with all his heart. It speaks miles of their friendship

A national treasure. Im a huge fan of his to begin with, but I´ve come to admire him as a musician, songwriter, and person more and more over the years.

Do you think Taylor Swift measures up to him?

@aliciad8553 3 жыл бұрын

16:42 When you see Bruce and Clarence holding hands. Those aren't band mates, they're brothers. I was heartbroken when Clarence died, not just for the all the years I pretended to play his solos by also for his family - and that includes Bruce.

The "First Gentleman" of Rock and Roll. Mr Bruce Springsteen has paid all of his dues to be on top and when he arrives he pays his respects and honors all of those who played a part in his success. When Bruce brings the E Street Band onto the stage at the end of this clip, I was thinking that we will never see the likes of such a monolith of Rock and Roll as were standing there that night and receiving their due.

Towering musician and poet. Soul filled songs that helped me get through tough times. Bruce was my therapy and filled my heart with happiness. American master who made the world sing.

My son asked me what my favorite rock and roll group was. He knows I love Springsteen, but if I’m honest with myself, the e street band isn’t the greatest…..BUT…. Listening to their music puts me in a mood that no other music does. It can help me express and deal with all of my fluctuating emotions. I told him the e street band may not be the best band of all time, but their music touches me and so many others in a place that few, if any other artists does. Thanks Bruce.

So grateful to have seen the boss live. Such a genuin and great performer. He really brings a balance of sad songs and bright. One of the reasons to why he is the pinnacle of Rock N' Roll artists. He embodies everything that Rock is supposed to be about. Love you Bruce!❤

@TenthAvenue94 7 ай бұрын

Precisely that. He sang about the joy and the sadness, the love and the heartbreak, the wins and the losses, the dramatic and the frivolous, the innocent hopes of youth and the hard reality of life. He embodied rock 'n roll like no other. Saw him once and can't wait to be back next year in San Siro.

Such a shame that the E Street Band didn't get inducted at the same time as Bruce. And when their time came, Clarence and Danny were gone.

@rockturtleneck 3 жыл бұрын

The rock critic Bill Wyman pointed out that Bruce was inducted just by himself, whereas, say, Tom Petty, was inducted with the Heartbreakers. They are equally enmeshed with their bands. Bruce and his manager Jon Landau are big players in the R&R Hall of Fame, so I'm sure it was purely intentional.

@darrenfried3071 2 жыл бұрын

Bruce has spoken of this; it's not a secret. I believe he was very proud to have been inducted by himself, but then later reconsidered and felt like he should have insisted that the band go in too. I could be wrong.

@ChrisDutch Жыл бұрын

All of Bruce’s studio albums were listed under his name. The E Street Band,for better or worse ,is listed as his touring unit so they show up on the live albums that have been released.
