I kind of feel the same way about him. I appreciate his greatness but he's not really my thing.


Yup.

Any band that can play a different set every night has their shit together. They are automatically better than a band who plays the same set every night.

A young Dr. Ken might have gotten some action to the soundtrack of Tunnel of Love.

Burn that out of your retina ear holes.

Bruce Springsteen might be the worst songwriter of all time. It's between him and John Mellencamp.

Overly earnest.

Don't even get me started on New Jersey.

I respect him for a live performer. He is a talented songwriter and musician...but his irrational, blind, fact-less public lobbying for the Democratic party will always leave me with the opinion that he's a moron and a blowhole.

I love the song Born to Run. Great piece of music.

"Born in the USA" for Nebraska as it was meant to be.

I had not heard that before. Music fits the lyrics a lot better.

One of my top 5 favorite albums of all time. A masterpiece.

Now I have to go listen to it.

I love Nebraska--probably listen to it 5 x a year at some point. Atlantic City, Highway Patrolman, forget about it. He should acoustify his entire catalog. This is a good one too, No Surrender.
