i think Bruce sometiumes can fall very squarely into that category of other people do his songs better than he does..there's obviously a huge amount of exceptions in his catalogue but that version of that song..incredible i thought.

I was like that for literally years..dunno what it was turned me..i can still only deal with the hits for the most part..his catalogue is so vast as to be intimidating...

I cant put my finger on why I dont like his stuff, I dont knock it really. He seems like such an act to me I guess, again, coming from a Pearl Jam fan I know.

He's incredible at what he does, but the huge sense of self importance he places in his work sorta throws me..i love that he puts out extended editions of his records and writes and talks about them, but it's kinda offputting the way he goes on about it like it's this almighty godlike genius he's sharing with us little people..

There was a thread in OB last year about what the greatest rock song of all time was. Born to Run was my vote.

Maybe PJ should let us vote on a song for them to cover for Fan Club Single 2012.
