 Directed by Brian De Palma, the video was shot at the Saint Paul Civic Center in Saint Paul, Minnesota, on June 28 and 29, 1984.The first night was a pure video shoot, the second was on the opening date of the Born in the U.S.A. Tour.Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band performed the song twice during that show to allow De Palma to get all the footage he needed.
