Bruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuce!
This is a song depicting the poor treatment of Vietnam veterans as well as the innocent people affected by war, but it frequently comes across as a very pro-USA song, which I know first hand after a fourth of July spent at Camp LeJeune in Jacksonville, NC, where this was played as a patriotic anthem.
Regardless, this is Bruce Springsteen at his best and needs to be played loud with a pounding bass.
Yes, there are other songs that should be played loudly. Another came to mind, but it’s also one I like to dance to so it’s for day #6. Bruuuuuuuuuuuuuce!
This is awesome. I think it’s one of his best tbh
Yes! ๐
yes he is one of my favourites, that voice and that smile!!
I know, right! ๐
I always thought of this as a patriotic anthem as a kid. Recently, I heard it somewhere. Something caught my attention, and I had to read the lyrics. Like you said, it’s the opposite of what I thought it was.
It’s amazing how we can hear song without ever actually hearing them.
Oh, I’ve got a growing list of songs I wish I never knew the lyrics to. ๐
