Springsteen is able to write darker, more gut-wrenching songs than anything I've ever heard from John Cougar.

I disagree with that, John Cougar has material that is just as equal as Springsteen, I prefer Cougar more so than you, so..it really depends on personal choice. I like Springsteen, but he is over played to me personally. John Cougar has written some very good songs through the years, but this is a Springsteen Thread, so..

Mellencamp doesn't stand the test of time like Springsteen.

Mellencamp's albums tend to be more filler than substance.

Mellencamp tends to rewrite others songs, for example I fight authority, authority always wins sounds a lot like the Bobby Fuller Four song from 1965 I fought the Law and the law won.

You should give The Ghost Of Tom Joad and Devils & Dust a listen, you'd probably like them too.

Name one thing that he has written that is darker then what Springsteen has written. Just because something is overplayed does not mean it is not better.

Sorry John Cougar is nothing special IMO. Few good songs here and there, but I have yet to hear him write anything on par with Springsteen, or as dark.

RIP Clarence Clemons 1942-2011

Although, he's known as a saxophonist I always like his small part in Santa Claus is Coming to Town.
