Hmm, could one set Byron's work to ska, has anyone done it? A few years ago there was a rap version of Wordsworth's "I wandered lonely as a cloud" so I suppose it is possible.

Problem is some political songs can sound and read pretty badly but this I think is done really really well, then again Bruce is known for this kind of song.

I am a fan but its very good.

I'm not a fan, but I also think it's very good. I even rate it higher than the song by Billy Bragg (who I am a very big fan of).

Well, two days after release, Streets of Minneapolis has reached No 1 in the US download charts.

Not bad for an irrelevant overrated rocker.

cf Forbes magazine. I'm not going to let them put cookies on my phone so you'll have to do without a link.

If Trump had simply ignored the Springsteen comments the story would have been forgotten about in a couple of days but by responding Trump has ensured that more people have now heard about the original comments and it has extended the life of the story for at least another couple of weeks.

Sure, it's ok but these chronical narratives aren't exactly a call-to-action.

I guess he is too old and rich for that shit, but white people might indulge in a little solidarity streaming.

Brett Ratner, a very prolific in demand Hollywood hack director. Or was until sexual abuse allegations made him persona non grata and jobless. So he has no dignity or reputation left to lose.
