Скачать или смотреть Bruce Sprinsgteen/Patti Smith - Because the Night [Acoustic Cover]

Because the Night by Bruce Springsteen from his album of outtakes "The Promise"

A song he of course gave to Patti Smith (confession, I think her version is better) but its a great song regardless. Would it have fit on Darkness on the Edge of Town? Possibly.

The first time I saw this song live was at Hyde Park in I think 2012. Nils Lofgren completely blew me away. I couldnt believe what I was witnessing, my jaw dropping.

The Patti Smith version however is my favourite and I think its because I prefer her lyrics (or rather her additions). There is also a great feeling and emotion present in both versions but with Patti Smith, as she always says when she talks about her role in the song, it was very raw and present to her experience at the time of writing and I love that. I love the guitar solo on her version too, its simply sublime. The middle 8 that follows is pure musical perfection and this is one of my favourite songs of all time. I just love it

Thank you for listening
