En este concierto Bruce Springsteen dijo:

Introducción a 'Chimes Of Freedom': «This is one of the greatest songs about human freedom ever written.»

Introducción a 'You Can Look': «When I was a little boy, my mama told me... that there are things in this world that you can look at but that you cannot touch... she said "Son, don't you touch that thing... no, son, don't you touch that thing... yeah, you can look but you can't touch that thing". I was 17 years old, I took my girl on a date... took her to a nice dark place to park... put my hand on her knee... whispered sweet things in her ear... put my hand on her thigh... whispered sweet things in her ear... unbuttoned the first few buttons of her blouse... whispered sweet things in her ear and I rose my hand just a little bit higher and she said "Son, don't you touch that thing, oh, son, don't you touch that thing... yeah, you can look but you can't touch that thing.»

Introducción a 'I'm A Coward': «Is there anybody alive out there tonight? (cheers)... is there anybody that can feel the living, the breathing spirit down in their souls tonight? (cheers)... that´s good... because I've got a question I want to ask you... do we have any brave Barcelona men out there tonight? (cheers)... do we have any macho Spanish men in the audience tonight? (cheers)... do we got any bad hombres out there tonight? (cheers)... because I've seen men that would swim rivers, climb mountains... wrestle with the beasts of the jungle... but when they got next to something... it was something that scared 'em to death... do you want to know what scared those brave men to death? I'll tell you what it was... I'm talking about L... U... V..., I'm talking about love, love... now, do we have any sweet, sexy, heroic Spanish girls out there tonight? (cheers)... do we have any brave Barcelona women out there tonight? (cheers)... because I'm talking to you too... I've known women that when they got next to love, they ran home to their loneliness and isolation... well, I'm not down here tonight just pointing my finger... I've got a confession that I've got to make... I want to say that I have sinned! I have sinned and that I'm not ashamed... and I'm a brave man even if I don't say so myself... but what I wanna confess to is... that I'm a coward when it comes to love.»

Introducción a 'Can't Help Falling In Love With You': «This is the last show of our "Tunnel Of Love Tour" and uh... I'd like to thank... all the people that brought us here to Spain... especially I would like to thank my crew who made it possible for us to play in Madrid last night and Barcelona tonight... I'd like to thank them all for their dedication and their loyalty... they're the best in the world.»
