Over the years, Springsteen in particular has been under a lot of public criticism as a musician and as a vocal opponent of a number of political causes.
But his recent departure, which he called one of the hardest decisions of his life, represents a dramatic change in his perspective both personally and professionally.
In an exclusive interview, Springsteen said, “I never imagined I’d be in a position where I’d even consider leaving my own country.”
However, it becomes difficult to overlook the toll it takes on your soul when you feel as if your principles are being assaulted on a regular basis and you’re surrounded by.
An increasing feeling of animosity and division. And I no longer recognize the nation I once believed in when I consider what is going on around me.
Springsteen’s choice is in line with many other entertainment industry members who have become more and more irritated with the political situation and how it affects national cohesion.
