I know Bruce Springsteen isn’t everyone’s favorite musician and songwriter, but whether you like him or not, you gotta give him the respect he deserves. I know he gets accused of being a sell out, a nostalgia has been, and being a terrible singer/songwriter, but you can’t deny that he’s one of the most hardest working musicians you’ve ever seen. That’s a proven fact.
With 16 studio albums in his entire discography, takes a few years breaks in between each album, in between each album, he’ll go on long world tours in support of each album. When just getting back from a really long world tour in support of his album “Magic”, he went straight to the studio to work on “Workin’ On a Dream”.
While doing that, he still never stopped doing what he loved, music. Performing for all these Barack Obama concerts, he’s working hard for a killer Superbowl performance which is this Sunday Feb. 1st. Then after that, he goes on another long world tour in support for his new album “Dream”.
I haven’t bought the album “Dream” yet, but I will probably pick it up when I go to the mall this weekend.
Most legendary rock musicians these days have been slowing down with music, taking a long time to release an album, barely ever going on tour. Springsteen is one of the only rock musicians still doing it. Most legendary musicians have backed down on music. There are only very few legendary musicians that are still doing music full time today like Springsteen, Neil Young, and maybe a few others.
I think all the Springsteen hate through the world of the internets is pretty ridiculous. I think it all comes down to one word: jealousy. Springsteen is out there working hard for his music doing something that he loves for a passion, while people like yourself are sitting at your computers talking hateful shit about Bruce Springsteen.
Why don’t you try picking up an instrument, learning how to play it, get a record deal, make and put out a record, and play to thousands of people in an arena every single night. If you call Springsteen a sell out and a has been musical hack just for doing all that, then you’re definitely jealous of him.
He’s the hardest working musician more than any musician on this planet. Springsteen is the god of music, enough said!!!
