Oh yeah, like the one that encouraged a man to leave his wife and kids because he has a ‘hungry heart’? Yeah that was a real manly song. /sarc

7years ago I heard a truck driver in the OKC flying j say that the song helped push his irrational thought process over the top. He left his wife and kids, and by the time he realized what a fool he had been, she was remarried.

Isn’t the song ‘born on the 4th of July’ an anti war song? One thing for certain, Bill Ayers, those liked minded, helped the kmer Rouge rise to its extremely murderous hight. Didn’t brave Bruce admit to dodging the draft by faking brain injury from a motorcycle accident?

Walking in Memphis? More like writing a song to make a buck off of Elvis fans, imo.

Rant off.

Born In The USA.

To be fair, he was making points about how poorly vets were treated, coming home.

Bruce dodged the draft by pretending to be queer.

There was a magazine special on him, back in 1980, where he told the story in great detail.

Fat chance anyone can find a copy of it, now.

Hungry Heart was from The River and he had yet to even meet Julie.

It was just a generic jerk song.

That was him? Didn't sound like him but I looked it up and you are right.

Now that I knew he didn't sing. Marc Cohn wrote and sung it. Don't ask me what else he wrote and sang because I have no idea.
