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.

Sickening!
“BORN IN THE U.S.A.” AND YOUR EMBARRASED? YOU TOTAL$#%&!@*COMMIE!
You were not embarrassed while you were making millions off of us singing born in the USA
Bruce Springsteen you are a lousy singer, you always were. Your voice us like chalk scrsting a blackboard. You were the greatest scam on the gullible American people. Your promoters were talented because they convinced millions you had talent. What a joke, and you have always been a slime in your personal life also.
Don’t come back asshole
Kiss my$#%&!@*Bruce.
He’s toxic !
OK. U FINALLY SHOWED YOUR TRUE COLORS.. DONE WITH YE. FOLKS WISE UP.. STOP PAYING FOR THESE MISFITS.
What a sorry pathetic liberal jerk!
Old rock stars don’t fade away…they just embarrass themselves into oblivion. I don’t begrudge celebrities having opinions, but keep them separate from your performances!!!
