Oh our Minneapolis, I hear your voice
Singing through the bloody mist
We’ll take our stand for this land
And the stranger in our midst
Here in our home they killed and roamed
In the winter of ’26
We’ll remember the names of those who died
On the streets of Minneapolis

Bruce Springsteen
January 2026

In a 1988 essay, sociologist Andrew Greeley called #BruceSpringsteen a “Catholic meistersinger,” arguing his rock music unconsciously channels #Catholic imagination—imagery of sin, grace, and redemption—despite his lapsed faith.

Andrew Greeley on the Catholic Imagination of Bruce Springsteen

Bruce Springsteen, perhaps without knowing or understanding it, is a Catholic meistersinger.
