Bruce gave the rights to Born in the USA to Luther (Luke Skywalker) Campbell. (formerly of 2LiveCrew)

He denied them to Lee (the K car) Iacoca.

You never know who's boss.

Nelly was mum on what a duet with Springsteen would've sounded like.

Let's hope he keeps it that way.

Is Nelly part of the "Make a Wish" foundation or something?

Makes perfect sense to me, as a huge Springsteen fan and a 2 Live Crew fan, too.

Nelly though, idunno. He's not very deep even though he's got the brains to be. Even his Tim McGraw song was just like "I am THE ONE" over and over wasn't it?

No, you had it right the first time.

A very small group of people appreciate the Boss. I was born too late to, I guess. College kids today still listen to the Beetles, Floyd, The Doors, Zeplin, Metallica, GnR, The Stones and will continue to, but I doubt 20 years from now anyone in college will know who Springsteen is. He's just not as good or iconic as he thinks he is.

My God. What you just wrote is either te scariest or the most stupid thing I've ever seen on FARK. And I'm not even considering "Beetles." Jesus, that's a kick in the head. You, sir, are lost.

Although I've never been a huge Springsteen fan, I have to respect what he did in the early days - it was an indescribable and undeniable magic. On stage at that time, he was as good as anyone before or since. You don't have to be a fan to recognize that quality in an artist.

In any case, here's some
vintage Springsteen from '75
(the song starts at :47 - new window)

Another classic moment are the last 50 seconds of
this performance

That headline needs to be in the running for HOTY.
(I'm using that line at some point today).
