Episode 5 | "Born in the USA"

Today on Bruce Springsteen Sings the Alphabet: We kick things off with a world-wide unanimous banger from the boss.

The song is as famous for its perceived patriotism as it is for its cease and desist letters to presidential campaigns. It’s somehow patriotic and ironically patriotic all at once. A satire packaged inside a genuine, heart-felt, sing along of a pop rock song.

While this song feels like a case of, “What hasn’t been said about this song,” it turns out we found plenty to say.

We’d also be interested in hearing what you have to say. Please shoot us a line or drop your rating in one of the feeds.

As always, if you think a friend would enjoy this, pass it along:
