[includes lyrics plus article from NPR] January 29, 2026

We publish below the lyrics of a new song Bruce Spingsteen released on January 28, 2026. The Boss, as the singer is known, released “Streets of Minneapolis” as part of a protest movement across the United States demanding an end to the terror unleashed by the Trump administration through its Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and Border Patrol thugs against undocumented immigrants and all working people.

We also publish an article first released by National Public Radio (NPR) News announcing the song’s debut.

    You might want to check your calendar. 1986 was 40 years ago. Ugh has it really been that long since I graduated high school?

      Yeah, I was initially going to object that his best work was surely 44 years ago with Nebraska, but then I realized it’s only 31 years since Ghost of Tom Joad and it’s a crazy good album. But that was 1995.

      Personally I’m a huge fan of his latest albums as well, but each to their own.
