I hear this song EVERYDAY . More than 10 times a day. This song remember my mom who passed away a long time ago. She loved Bruce Springsteen so much and i miss her everyday in my life.
My mum passed away recently and she was a big fan of Bruce, as am I and my daughter, her only grand daughter; three generations of Bruce fans here in dear old Blighty. Mum wants "If I Should Fall Behind" by the Boss played at her funeral in a fortnight's time and despite other people's wishes for a bunch of religious stuff she didn't believe in, it will be.
Anyone who loves another like this and someone who enjoys the Bruce. I'm a man who loves a woman, and it's all true. I've been there and done that. This song speaks of and to the heartbeat of love. Love is a gift. And I, for one so enjoy her secret garden. Cultivate and grow the garden and enjoy the harvest.
I used to play this song all the time when I broke up with the mother of my children, and 17 year love of my life. I cried so much..but this track is cathartic. RIP. Clarence Clemons. 🎼❤️🙏🎼
This is a song that you have to allow time to stop and listen and appreciate every word, note and instrument, it's a masterpiece. Thanks Bruce, for everything.
It sure does. The one Sax player of Phil Collins band is also great. Oh & Alto (RIP) from Bob Seger's was GREAT. HE HAD About 12 of them. To My Surprise the lights went out and there was Alto right next to Me (on the steps) blasting the first notes. Amazing.
I grew up listening to this beautiful song and awesome artist. Bruce is not just a great artist, but one hell of a guy. His songs really hit home and he always nails it every time. Rock on Bruce.
This masterpiece triggers a deep emotional response for the ones that have experienced and understand the true meaning of the beautiful, touching lyrics! Thank you Boss!
Definitely triggers a deep emotional response but it's not a happy song. It's about an emotionally unavailable woman. He asked himself. "You've gone a million miles, how far did you get? That place where you can't remember and you can't forget" He's gotten nowhere with her emotionally 😢
The Depth of this Song… I Hear Every Word and Feel Every Emotion that He Sings… I could never put this together … He does it so well… That’s why I love him so ❤️
Happened to have Jerry Maguire on TV tonight and this song came on...brought me back to hearing this amazing song back when I was a teenager and loving it so much. Had it on repeat on my dinky mp3 player, and finding it again tonight has given me goosebumps all over again. Thank you Boss for such a wonderful masterpiece!!
This song is very much underrated. Definitely should be played more on the radio. I have had this on repeat since yesterday afternoon both this version and the album version on my music app
As I look at my wife sleeping I only love her more as I listen to this and realize she’s allowed me into her secret garden ...... I’m a lucky soul and thank you BS for writing this
the secret garden is at prospect cemetery,, once u see it, u will be floored,, it has two horizons, two rainbows, a sight to behold, used to call it the festival of lights, there, they put all the elemets together,, wind, sun, rain, earth, the moon, even lined it up with true north, Polaris>3 Toronto Ontario Canada, wow now that's planning,
These songs of 90s are so beautiful ,I hear them in 2017 and i feel sad that we dont have such songs anymore.We have lost the art of portraying love through songs and movies!
I never hear good r&b love songs anymore. All I hear is rap. Which all sounds the same. There are no Boyz 2 men, or blackstreet, all4one anymore. It's sad.
This live is a masterpiece, never founded a better version of that song. That sax at the end is played so well, and the other voices than Bruce, done so well
OMG!! THAT WAS FREAKING AMAZING!! Whenever someone asks me to open up to them more, I play them this song. One of my very favorites from my lifes soundtrack!
"Secret Garden" She'll let you in her house If you come knockin' late at night She'll let you in her mouth If the words you say are right If you pay the price She'll let you deep inside But there's a secret garden she hides She'll let you in her car To go drivin' 'round She'll let you into the parts of herself That'll bring you down She'll let you in her heart If you got a hammer and a vice But into her secret garden, don't think twice You've gone a million miles How far'd you get To that place where you can't remember And you can't forget She'll lead you down a path There'll be tenderness in the air She'll let you come just far enough So you know she's really there Then she'll look at you and smile And her eyes will say She's got a secret garden Where everything you want Where everything you need Will always stay A million miles away
What a song.. so many years of hearing.. but it simply leaves you mesmerised... hearing to this song makes you feel that God has let out some of his secrets...
Não é questão de me prostar ao EUA... mas, de reconhecer o que é realmente arte e talento. Músicas como esta, acalentam almas de pessoas pelo mundo, onde quer que estejam. Na minha juventude, não tive a garota de meus sonhos por questões de pele e de classe. Mas lá estava tio BRUCE, cantando ao meu redor.
What a simple and beautiful song. Us guys can recognize that there is always something deep and hidden in the women we love, and I am sure it is that way for women with their men as well. Springsteen has written so many classic songs and some like this are simply masterpieces.
She'll let you in her house If you come knockin' late at night She'll let you in her mouth If the words you say are right If you pay the price She'll let you deep inside But there's a secret garden she hides She'll let you in her car To go drivin' round She'll let you into the parts of herself That'll bring you down She'll let you in her heart If you got a hammer and a vise But into her secret garden, don't think twice You've gone a million miles How far'd you get To that place where You can't remember And you can't forget She'll lead you down a path There'll be tenderness in the air She'll let you come just far enough So you know she's really there She'll look at you and smile And her eyes will say She's got a secret garden Where everything you want Where everything you need Will always stay A million miles away ❤❤❤❤❤❤ I love this song
This is a beautifully written masterpiece. A song written about the very secret gift we can give to someone else.... which is offering your heart and soul with no restriction. It is an act of allowing your heart to rejoin with its counterpart...
@@drliz6783 I understand your interpretation clearly and there is no disagreement. It is all in the lens you choose to view through... TY for sharing..
While you're interpretation is sweet, romantic and thoughtful. Bruce said it's about someone entirely emotionally unavailable,, not a happy song.I believe he said it was about his first wife before Patty. He wrote the song well before it was released in 94. Her "secret garden" is everything he wants and needs in that relationship, yet it will "always stay a million miles away". They divorced. He found Patti who gave him her all and was always emotionally available to him and they sang together. His type of partner. Another thing is to think on the line "you've gone a million miles, how far did you get, that place where you can't remember and you can't forget"... "you" being himself. He's saying that he's going in circles with her, not getting anywhere.
One of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard! It's a shame relationships today are by far different than the good ole Bruce Springsteen days! I hope those days will return. My best days were in the 80's.
Otra preciosa melodía del grande del Boss un genio de la música de este siglo un tipo lleno de valores patriota y super solidario y apesar de su edad hay está dando conciertos de 3 horas para el deleite de la gente de muchas generaciones tengo pocos ídolos pero el Boss es uno de ellos grande grande 🇪🇦
I see it as a painful song. It was born out of experience. A man loving a woman and she was just unable to allow him access to the most intimate feelings that see possess. Sex was not withheld and neither was companionship. What she was unable to give up was all the hurt, pain, passions, hopes, dreams and the rest of the best stuff. He was not the one she could entrust them too. If you have ever had a love like this; they are the most painful ones. For you know that every things that you need, will stay a million miles away. Great song expressing perfectly the sound of a breaking heart.
Steve Watts wow that was the perfect interpretation of the song.. and yes it is the most painful thing to have... someone you love so deeply but can never love you the same way...
Even though this beautiful song was written in '95, it has all the qualities that made the music of the 70's so special. It's a song that touches the emotions of those who listen and more importantly, we can all understand and relate to it. We believe we are so different from each other, but this music brings us together to help us understand that we are in fact very much the same. No matter where you live in the world or what physical differences we may have, there is one thing we all have in common.....what is beneath the external part of us. It's on the inside where we find our true selves and this music has the ability to reach in and touch the emotions we all share. We find our selves moved by the same thing. That makes us much more alike one another than different.
***** Thank you. I believe that Bruce didn't do a lot of talking during his life. He was an observer and that fact is glaringly obvious in his songs. He writes the most relatable music. He was quietly paying attention to everything around him.
I don't know too much about him, and only know a couple of his songs, but from what little I know, I agree wholeheartedly. You definitely have to respect that about him.
Agreed, I am a white male, 32 South Africa, my predecessors used to play the game on easy, can't agree more, I'm still comfy, but feel Civil War brewing in SA, may God protect his children.
The soft snap of a Weinberg bass drum, the majestic keys of the Professor, and a voice that opens the secret garden. Great soundtrack. And Leeds, makes me think of my mom. Thanks Bruce. And wonderful sax Jake. And Garry the bass is real smooth.
This is what music is about. When you listen to a song, it seems like is was written specially for you. There is no border for a good music. Nobody can build a wall for it. it does not matter where you are from Africa, Asia, Europe or America the feeling is the same.
I just learned about him a few weeks ago and I’ve been listing to him everyday...I heard he is not only a great artist but also a great person...humble and has a good heart. So far my favorite ones are this song, Tougher than...and Happy... I’m determined to check all his songs...haha
@@niallmcq3606 I know, like a chip of the old block, following in his uncle,s shoes, can't fault him. And he,s not to bad ether. PEACE BE WITH YOU MY FRIEND.😎😎✌️✌️🏴🏴🇺🇦🇺🇦
I recently lost my mother due to a cancer... she battled so hard even if she knew it was a lost battle...for her but not for us... so she could spend more quality time her kids and grandchildren... and this song takes all its sense... I accompanied her all through the last days and saw her body and mind fade away... until she also realised that she could not fight no more and that she was physically not her herself anymore..
This song make me think of my youngest. She's in the military hasn't had luck with men, but she is the type that will love someone till the end. It takes her a bit to get close enough to her, but when she lets you in she is so amazing!!
Bruce has been there through the highs and lows of my life. Keep on a rocking Man. I was 20 when I saw Mr Springsteen and the E Street band. Now I'm nearly 60.
I'm writing a book going back to the 80's. About the innocence of a little girl's first year in high school where she meets the love of her only to be rejected cruelly by him a year later! 33 years later they run into each other. He falls in love with her all over again, but it's painfully tough for him to get back in and for her to let him back. This is perfect!
Tragic. Love a woman all your life and you'll never break that barrier that all women have. The space in their head just for them. Beautiful, just utterly and tragically beautiful.
I would hear this song on the radio from time to time when I was younger, could never figure out who sang it. I hadn't heard the song in a long time then I found the greatest hits cd he released in Walmart back in 2003, purchased it started listening to bits and pieces then came to the song, immediately knew the song almost started screaming. So now I have it in my phone in my Amazon music ap
This is your gift Mr. Springsteen. I struggle with my own inner dreams at the ripe 'old' age of 26. It's going fast and some things don't make sense, but I can't forget em. Your music has helped me make sense of some things. And for that I thank you.
ramblin man If I can intrude a little? let me tell you from the depths of my ripe age of 64 that your youth is your *gift* right now and even the crazy nonsense, the confused frustration, the anger and the heart-felt joys are what will make you the man you become. Bruce it's obvious touches a lot of folks with his poetry, and he does put things in perspective, you're right. I hope you stick with all things that do that for you, and keep your journey clear and focused. You are unique.
ramblin man My pleasure, I know the road is sometimes dark and confusing, having been on it a while myself, but *music* helps pull us up and out - I wish for you all the sounds of life that make you complete. Peace, friend.
not trying to bud in but...I'm at the ripe old age of 59. Let me say, we all have dough's, confusion, and struggle with the inner "thing" it will pull you one way wile wanting to go the other. The only thing I have found, live in the moment, the good moments will make you smile once in a wile during the rough times. Take a quite second, close your eyes and remember...You hang in there rambling man.
Lee Cornish Just on behalf of myself and my own "dark dusty times" I thank you for admitting how we *all* experience that dichotomy of being tugged one way while knowing we should go another. I do the same thing and just meditate on times of pure magic, joyous music, and the people who I am sure love me. namaste
