Not that I have any particular affection for this song, or U2, or Bono, or the original artist's performance here, however..

- Look how much fun Patti Smith is having, especially as they get loosened up a bit.
- Bruce Springsteen is fucking awesome at everything.
- The rest of U2 does a pretty damn good job of staying out of the way.
- Seriously. Look at Patti Smith. She's 65, btw.


Just caught this on Palladia, and my first thought was "That's a bunch of solid musicians really enjoying themselves, and it shows."

I deem this true.

I was brought up on Bruce Springsteen by my dad, and it's always given me an appreciation for someone who just will not give up until he's collapsing.

The Madison Square Garden show they released on DVD about 10 years ago is one of my favourite live DVDs ever made. It makes me look at the shoegazer-type musicians on stage with awe at how they could not move around and enjoy themselves a bit, put less into being perfect and more into enjoying the experience.

Wow, synchronized dancing is awesome.
I actually liked this video. Don't care for either rendition of the song though.
