This week, Bruce Springsteen claimed that he was standing amount “embarrassed Americans”.
This coming from the man who sings “Born in the USA,” but the signs were there all along. Springsteen’s hit may sound like a patriotic jam, but its intention is often misheard or misunderstood. With lyrics like “So they put a rifle in my hand / Sent me off to a foreign land / To go and kill the yellow man,” the song was a political statement from the very beginning.
The anti-war/anti-America message may have been subtle then, but now Springsteen is making his displeasure with the United States known across the world. His most overt criticism of his home country came this week during a concert in Melbourne, Australia.

You are the only embarrassment!
F..k u Bruce you old has been. U don’t speak for true Americans.
So, someone who can mouth the same words over and over for three minutes I am supposed to respect. Give me a break not only is your so called music annoying but so are you.
These people live in their own world. So sad
Loss Springsteen should retire.
Welcome home brother! Vietnam class of 69/70!
He’s a terrorist arrest him for treason against America.
Looks like he needs a laxative. …..
Get off your soapbox you old has been.
