Penned by Pete Seeger during the Vietnam War, "Bring Them Home" quickly acquired anthemic power in the anti-war movement. Springsteen first recorded the song in January 2006 and added a final lead vocal during his European tour, at a studio in Oslo, Norway. His poignant rendition, performed frequently on the Seeger Sessions tour, adds several new verses and connects the song to a much earlier topic al song, "When Johnny Comes Marching Home." "Bring Them Home" was written in 1965 and originally released on Pete's 1971 Columbia album, "Young vs. Old."
