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.
See Bruce Springsteen’s full statement on the next page:
you and your band stand alone
I hate his so called music and his ugly looks do not help. If he is so disappointed about America, take yourself to a far away land, take your music and hommie’s with you.
Lost a fan …
When you have the money he makes you can flip a coin to decide who you will follow. Real Americans have to choose who will do the best job to serve the people. I hope he moves to Canada along with all the other yellow stripe bleeding heart morons that know nothing about the real world.
sings tough, love to slap him
YOU SUCK!
Traitor
You do not get the priviledge to stand for me, perhaps your over emotional lib government dependent slaves will allow that but not me.
Snowflake airhead!!
Bruce is an embarrassing piece of you know what. So egatistical.
He should retire from strummiñg and humming. No more rock nroll left in the the burnt out bum.
