Watch Bruce Springsteen Kick Off European Tour With First ‘So Young And In Love’ Performance Since 2013

At the first European date of his 2024 tour, Bruce Springsteen played the 'Born To Run' outtake "So Young And In Love" for first time since 2013.

“I think I’m gonna move around the other parts of the set a lot more, so there’ll be a much wider song selection going on. At the kickoff date of his 2024 European tour at Principality Stadium in Cardiff, Wales, Springsteen stuck to that promise by beginning the show with “So Young And In Love,” a wonderfully obscure tune he hadn’t played live since 2013. “So Young And In Love” dates all the way back to 1974 when Springsteen began playing an early version titled “A Love So Fine.” It included the line “rat traps filled with soul crusaders,” which he later re-worked into the Born to Run song “Night.” The E Street Band recorded the tune in the studio that year, but it didn’t make the cut for Born to Run and wouldn’t surface until the Tracks box set in 1998.
