Is Bruce Springsteen's new single "jingoistic"?

Published Feb 14 2012, 02:07 PM by Carly Carioli

According to the New York Times -- and more specifically, to former Phoenix critic JON CARAMANICA -- that's affirmative. It's amusing to us that in 2012, anyone is still arguing about Bruce Springsteen lyrics. And maybe it's just a couple of dudes from the New York Times, Rolling Stone, and SPIN. But hey, rock-n-roll-future and all: if people are really going to get into a Twitter battle on Boss lyrics, we're sure as hell going to at least keep score.
