The Boss hates you, and your radio station!

Post by Force Commander »

Bruce Springsteen's first single from his new album "Magic" is called "Radio Nowhere". It is to radio what "57 Channels and Nothing On" was to TV. He seems to attack satellite radio as bland, pines for the days of DXing, decries voice tracking, asking if there is "anybody alive out there" and even seems to make reference to the train wreck in Minot ("searching for a mystery train") that was so badly handled by radio in that market.

Read an article about, and free download of the song:

What do you think? On the money, or crying over spilled milk?

I'm just trying to figure out how this fits in the "Technical" section..... :?
