Does Bruce give a flying fuck about Hetfields opinition. Don't think so.These guys don't even play in the same league. Really does this kind of comparison even exist?
This is no competiton. Springsteen is better live than Metallica.Seen them both live and Bruce is just awesome, then Metallica doesn't have the same level of enthusiasm. But yes , it's unfair to try to compare these two. Bruce has been around for 40 years. He is a legend. And the E-street band has provided some of the best musicians ever. Max Weinberg is just one of them.Metallica is good, But I haven't seen the same commitment from them. They've fought wars in the band. E-street band hasn't.
Both amazing acts in their own right. i prefer Bruce for the sheer volume and quality of his catalog and his irreplaceable stage persona but Metallica deserve a lot of credit as well, especially for their classic eighties succession of albums
Love the assholes taking sides in this thread and one side depriving themselves of great music. To those people I say this: you're sniveling cunts. If your mind is so closed that you can't find joy and meaning in both these artists then you aren't fans of music, you're just sheep who are poseurs that place more emphasis on what your peers think of your taste in music than what you truly enjoy.
pussy....Bruce will still be here when Metallica have long gone...that lou Reed album is one of the biggest let downs ever...Bruce never pissed on his fans...Metallica just did
This fellow is not 'rockstar' material, none of the band are. A person can like the art and not the artist(s). But everytime I hear these fellows talk it makes me not want to listen to their music. They have very little to say really.
@wooooooproductions You obviously know nothing about Bruce Springsteen, or you would know that he was the first rock and roller to employ 2, and at one time, 3 black musicians in the E St. Band. And they are are all blood brothers to this day. Bruce despises the White Supremacist movement, and anyone claiming to be a better human being than someone else of a different race or color, which in a perfect world would be the way of all people's thinking.
@juvserr i'm a long time deadhead that got my face melted at my first Springsteen show, and it wasn't even with the E street band, it was during his Lucky Town tour. Had to be DRAGGED there by my brother. To this day, its one of the BEST live performances I've ever witnessed .. . and as a deadhead, i've seen many.
LOL i love how it cuts out on Lars..... Lars: awww yeah im next.... *takes a deep breath*...... show ends* Lars: Awwww. Director: Ehehehe.... no one likes Lars.... >:)
"I'm not the biggest fan"...don't worry James, the feeling is mutual. IMO, Metallica is good at what they do, but they'll never trump E Street. I would much rather listen to Bruce all of the time then Metallica some of the time.
@thorocotomy So go listen to a Springsteen record until your ears bleed and quit making a big deal out of nothing. My God, he just said he wasn't the biggest fan of his music. It's not as if he insulted Springsteen. Jesus, he COMPLIMENTED him for fuck's sake! Just because you don't spray your shorts over Bruce Springsteen doesn't automatically mean you're a bad person. Grow up. Holy fuck.
@billbenblue I think someone needs to take about 500mg of calmthefuckdown STAT. And the "just because you don't spray your shorts over Bruce" comment followed by "Grow Up/Holy fuck" just says it all about which one of us needs to grow up...And its not a compliment. Its James being his usual pompous self. And I will listen to Springsteen until my ears bleed, that sounds more fun then arguing on youtube, ya dickface. Take some of your own advice and grow up please.
@thorocotomy Yeah, my comment DOES say it all, considering you're the one hurling insults at people over the internet. I didn't call YOU any names, did I? Now who needs to grow up? There's a word for people like you. Know what it is? A FANBOY. It's when you absolutely worship someone or something as if they were the second fucking coming, and ANYONE who disagrees with you is a "pompous" prick by default. That's lame, and it's extremely arrogant to the point of being downright fucking stupid.
Im not comparing Bruce to Metallica, Theyre both great. James is simply saying they both have passion for what they do & seeing bruce's passion inspired Metallica, unlike other forms of music that lipsync & are fake as much street cred as they promo on the albums they 'drop'
@happyjack1222 Good call,I like that he says he's not a big fan of Bruce's music and while I think that's nuts his description of The Boss' passion for music is spot on.I like both because they both have that passion for their music.
Oh, I'm SO relieved he said he isn't a fan of Springsteen's music. I love all types of music, but Springsteen is the example I always give of what I don't like.
@OralAgreement69 Hey man I wasn't dissing Hetfield. I was saying that Bruce is proud to be the boss, and Hetfield is proud to be the table. He proudly admitted it in a song
@eminemdisstopia , james has nothing on bruce...like em both...but Bruce is the ultimate songwriter and performer...the guy is about to go back on tour...and i guarantee your gonna see the boss with just as much energy as he had before
My dad is a massive fan of his, i'm not greatly into his music but I find it alright but when you watch him live..... I have to say he even makes MetallicA look old :/
Very well said by James here, I think. People forget-back in the late 80's, b4 the whole Napster thing, Metallica were one of the very few bands-bsides the Dead-who would let anyone who had the eqmt, freely tape at their shows-b4 they bcame SUPERhuge, they were a band about the people, for the people...and they STILL do their best despite their vast commercial appeal-i.o.w., they're probly as real as u can get and still b that big a band
