If he were a character on The Simpsons, Springsteen would work with Homer at the Nuclear Power Plant during the day and play rock n’roll with Little Steven and the crew at Moe’s Tavern every night… wait. Why hasn’t this happened on the Simpsons yet? Matt Groening, I’ll write that episode!
He’s a legend, an icon, a rock star, a poet, but at the end of the day, a big reason why Bruce Springsteen is loved, respected and admired by so many is because despite his greatness and incredible accomplishments, he’ll never let you forget that he’s just a man.
Happy Birthday Bruce!
