John Mellencamp Duets With Bruce Springsteen For New Single “Wasted Days”!

John Mellencamp will be releasing his yet to be named new album sometime in 2022. In the meantime we get a taste of it with his new single Wasted Days featuring a duet with Bruce Springsteen. When I first saw this I was excited as it was always said that Mellencamp was his generation’s Springsteen. Maybe my expectations were to high for this collaboration, but I will admit I am disappointed. The story telling is there and when they sing separately it’s fine, but that’s it. Musically nothing special, you can hear each’s influence. I don’t think it melds well. But what killed me was the harmonies, if you want to call them that. It is just, well let’s just say I don’t think it pleases the ears. The video on the other hand is cool that you can see these two icons in the same space performing the song. That’s always a good thing. Check it out below.
