why do people slate this song so much? It's a great song- sure it doesn't come close to Thunder Road or the other classics but it's actually a great, great song!

It's not a song about frustration it's about seeing the beauty in normal everyday life. Forget fakeness and magazine bull and see the beauty in normal people

Queen of the Supermarket is a wonderful song about the lonlienes, frustration and desperation of middle age. One of Bruce's best ever melodies as well.

I've heard a lot of criticism of this song, people wondering how the man who once sang about warm summer nights, dusty pick up trucks, switchblade lovers and scared, lonely girls ended up here. What everyone seems to have missed is that this song is still tackling a classic Boss theme. For the past 35 years Springsteen has taught us to look for love, beauty and adventure in the ordinary and unremarkable areas of life. The emotions and ideas of the song transcend the location.

the boss is in touch with the common man, people need to realise like most of us song is born from frustration imperfection and a need for peace, shelter from the storm
