I can't think of any of his songs used in a commercial. I could be wrong but nothing comes to mind.

I was wondering if anyone came up with any of his songs used in commercials?

I think someone confused him with Bob Seger

Sorry guy. Nothing blue collar about that limo liberal except making money from the blue collar guys who pay big money to see his show.
If you preach it then live it. Hypocrite is the word that comes to mind

To be fair no star ever "lives it", from Jimmie Rogers dressing like a railroad brakeman in the '20s through Eric Clapton and The Stones in the '60s to the country stars of today

Eh, he got rich. Doesn't change his Jersey roots. I don't buy his music or views anyway. Gonna have to drop a lot of music and films if you listen to any star's opinion of real life after they make it.

I read/heard an interesting description of the Dylan/Springsteen argument. Penn Jillette stated that "Dylan's lyrics were about him (Dylan) and Springsteen's lyrics were about us." Listen to the albums "Nebraska" or "Tunnel of Love" or "The Ghost Of Tom Joad" to truly hear great writing. "Meeting Across the River" on Born to Run is brilliant storytelling...

Saw him twice in the '70's and thought he was amazing. Years ago he was one of my favorites; his hackish political activism has turned me off of him, though.

Not a fan. Nothing I've heard has ever moved me to dig any deeper and I give most music a chance. People love him though.

I don't own any of his music, nor do I intend to see him live, nor do I plan to learn any of his songs on guitar.
