Bruce Springsteen on Donald Trump, and his own depression

Donald Trump has focused much of his campaigning on America's blue collar workers who fear for their jobs. Now an interview with the man who has been the voice of those workers for the last 40 years - Bruce Springsteen.

Never focused much on Springsteen; considered him just another rocker. But, this interview changed how I see him. He's thoughtful, introspective and humble, with the self reflection to realize he's not sure of everything. Those are qualities I admire.

Warren Zevon said that one of the greatest things about Springsteen, is that, and I paraphrase, he is exactly who you think he is. I like that. Certainly seems so, in this interview.

Hearing Bruce speak so candidly about his personal feelings just humanizes him all the more and this why he is dearly admired and loved as a musician and a person.

I agree that Bruce Springsteen sounds like such a sensible humble and extremely talented man...My Gosh, I love this man. Thank you Bruce Springsteen for all your gifts! Love to you Mr. Springsteen..such a huge fan of yours! L Burke.

He is an extremely thoughtful, articulate and well spoken man. After reading his autobiography, Born to Run, I have so much respect for Mr. Springsteen. The Boss, indeed.

I used to love listening to Bruce Springsteen as a boy back in the 1980s. Among my favourite songs were *"Born in the USA", * *"Glory Days", * *"Streets of Philadelphia".*

This is a SUPERB interview. Exactly how it should be done. It helps that Bruce is such a legend

Bruce is the best! He sings songs which relates to people’s feelings in his songs! When I am down I turn his music on & the songs left me up!💕

[davorpavlov]

I like the way the journalist is trying to pin him to a certain opinion and Bruce is resisting him. I love that guy.
