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.

Play your music and stop being an$#%&!@*.
Glad you are only speaking for yourselves! You don’t speak for 63 million + .
Loosing all respect for you
Nobody that I know in S. Louisiana can’t stand this SOB….. he’d never come here for a concert……. nobody would go……
Get over yourself !! You are the embarrassment to our country !!
Get a life and get over it Bruce. Time for you to grow up or go away!
He’s garbage just like his music
It’s over bruce and so are you. You are a has-been and if I never heard your name or any of your horrible songs again, it would be too soon.
