I hated Born in the U.S.A. then and...

I hate it now. In fact, a few years ago I took my vinyl copy and threw it on my Victrola with one of those thick needles meant for a shellac 78. Ever tried that? The needle scrapes through the LP grooves leaving delicious, black, vinyl shavings behind. I can take Bruce in doses, but BITUSA needs to be sent to that sonic graveyard shared by Men Without Hats and Howard Jones. And please, don't tell me to listen to the demos!
