Bruce Springsteen told the most defining figure in American conservatism to gently caress off while both were at the height of their popularity, all leftist goons have ever done is talk a big revolutionary game while twiddling their thumbs about how big and scary and MEAN those republicans are.

Lol you call telling someone to eff off political activism? How about John Lennon sleeping in for world peace, David Hasslehoff dancing on the Berlin Wall, the Spice Girls spreading the message of 'girl power' or pretty much anything Bono says or does.

His radio hits are all very samey. He sorta developed a certain "sound" for the radio, and its what all of his hits sound like from Thunder Road straight through to Wrecking Ball. HOWEVER His non single tracks are all over the place musically. Jungleland is this fantastic sprawling epic of a song with a shiver inducing sax-solo. Darkness on the Edge of Town is one of the best songs ever written. The entirety of the Nebraska album. The entirety of Ghost of Tom Joad. both of those are really different from Human Touch/Tunnel of Love. I will say he's far better with the E Street Band rather than without. And pre born in the usa is for sure better than post born in the usa. (With the exception of the song The Rising, which makes my hair stand on end and makes me tear up, but that may just be the context with which I first heard the song). also, Tom Waits meets the Jersey Shore in an album I'm not quite sure what to make of: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hPvI75rQBpo The fact that Jukes are like 90% of Conans band is the best part of Conan.

The Reagan campaign used it for their campaign ad soundbites and had to be told by Springsteen to stop using his song.

I'm more on the crazy talented end of the musical spectrum, and Bruce is pretty awful from this perspective as well. When I hear him sing, I picture Bob Dylan trying mimic Christian Bales Batman.

I'm not even a Springsteen dick-rider like some but if you don't consider that a decent piece of song-writing I don't know what to tell ya. I think the fact that so goddamned many people missed the entire point of the song shows that it does have a little depth to it (also that people are loving stupid but that's a different argument)

he's got some good songs and some not good songs dunno if i'd pay 100 or whatever to sit through 3 hours of his music in a hockey arena tho e: you'd think a guy who supposedly cares about the working man would charge a little less than $70 for his cheapest tickets
