New Jersey Pol Fakes Springsteen Spotify Wrapped, Blames Kids


New Jersey democrat Josh Gottheimer owned up to fabricating his 2024 Spotify Wrapped to show all Bruce Springsteen songs.

Millions of people around the world do it every day effortlessly, relishing the power, the glory, the promise, the majesty, the mystery, and the ministry of rock & roll as only Bruce Frederick Joseph Springsteen can deliver it. As NJ.com notes, his campaign website describes a youth spent “catching a Springsteen show every chance he could get”; and when Gottheimer announced his gubernatorial bid lat month, he came out to “Glory Days” (a song famously about, uh, locking your longing gaze on the past because you’re unable to stare down your bleak, empty future). Furthermore, a quick look at Gottheimer’s Wrapped looks noticeably fuzzier and lo-res than a normal screengrab — as if some poor campaign intern spent 45 minutes hastily concocting it in Photoshop.
