Springsteen doesn't have a single song that can hit you right in the heart/gut like Against the Wind or We've Got Tonight.
or make you change the radio dial faster than those two... those are pure schlock

Not al all, despite having his best recorded work behind him (that I agree)... He is still a huge draw because his live shows are still top drawer!

Seger. Never been a Springsteen fan. I like a few songs, but generally not really.

I don't hate Springsteen. I just like Seger's music a lot better.
Born to run is a really good song.
I think the hate springs from Born in The USA

Sprinteen’s lyrics are more poetic while maintaining his common man roots. I like Seger fine, but Springsteen is more impressive as an artist to me.

In their primes, Seger always came off as more authentic.

I don't know about this. A huge part of Springsteen's early work is almost the definition of New Jersey in the 70's.
If anything, Springsteen was such a defining artist that his lyrics almost created a reality. Those first few albums informed how people view that region and time period to this day.
To me, that's extremely authentic. If Springsteen was less authentic it's in the mid-80's and beyond when he was still singing working man struggle songs after he achieved wealth and fame...but that's not his prime and it's hard to avoid for any artist.

I hardly ever come to the Music Board, but I really dislike Springsteen. So guess I came to the right place.

Seger all day

Correct. Early Springsteen was great.

Seger. I can listen to his song one time and get it.

great song
Seger is fine, but not really in the same league as Springsteen IMO

It’s no mystery, people no longer like Springsteen because of his politics. Given his political alignment, he gets a negative view.
