Agree on McCartney, Keith and the like. But you're way off on Bruce. He even wrote at least one song from the perspective of the terrorists. You really have to listen to get it, but it's there. One thing you cannot accuse Springsteen of is cheesy patriotism. No way.
Come to think of it,
he should be running for president.
