The clip was shared by renowned Canadian journalist/host George Stroumboulopoulos. He captioned it, "Imagine going into the pub and Bruce Springsteen is singing one of his most beautiful songs."
Springsteen kicks off a three-night stand at RDS Arena in Dublin tonight (May 5.) A full list of his upcoming tour dates can be found at BruceSpringsteen.net.
