He lost me with Springsteen and his god awful e street band. There is only one good Springsteen record and that's Nebraska.
I'm not saying they're similar, I'm saying I like their music more. Every Springsteen album from Born to Run to Nebraska is an absolute classic IMO, especially Darkness on the Edge of Town and Nebraska. Costello also had a really great run with his first four or five albums that the Heads never matched.

I'm not saying they're similar bands, but the title of the thread is "best band in the world", not "best band with a certain kind of sound in the world".
