Giving up on Bruce Springsteen?!


Question:

Giving up on Bruce Springsteen?


Has his incessant politicking ruined the admiration you once held for "The Boss." Beginning with the 2002 Time Magazine interview in which he agonized over what America might have done to deserve 9/11, it's been a down hill slide for me.

I'm talking about his MUSIC, too; it's full of leftist politics! I'm going to have to agree. His rantings are just plain scary now. I know many former fans in the PA/NJ area who agree. His support among police and firemen took a nose-dive after those comments concerning the September 11 attacks, too. Bon Jovi, another New Jersey native, has also turned into a big-mouth irritant (and not just because he's a clueless Democrat). To his credit, however, Jon seems to be a good citizen and has never embraced the leftist anti-Americanism of a Springsteen.

(By the way, Patti sang even on the "Born in the USA" album; she's not the problem.) I gave up on him years ago. Quite frankly, I don't see why everybody likes him in the first place. Incessant politicking won't help anyone's cause either. Gave up on him after he got with Patti. Never liked her singing...it took away from his music. His lifestyle changed (ie. marriage, kids) and that changed his music too. I guess it's a natural progression, but what attracted me to his music was the freedom, longing and danger in the songs/characters. It's just not the same.

His politics have nothing to do with it. I don't pay much attention to "celebrities" politics, even when I agree with them. I have always disliked when celebrities use their fame and exposure (like on the Oscars) to promote their ideas. They are free to say what they want, but using award shows etc. to me is not fair...I dont get the chance to do that, why should they?

Anyway. I miss the old Bruce.
