Bruce Springsteen is fucking awful. Yes, I know, Nebraska is blah important blah but he's probably the most cringe-worthy artist on the list.
Anyway, this thread isn't about 'best of' lists or even this specific one. Urban's idea about what to do with it is a good one.
Let's all please stop talking about the frustrating banality of lists like this before I spit up on myself and have to spend more quarters at the laundromat.
