Springsteen sings of sodomy

http://www.dazereader.com/24000823.htm The Guardian music critic is shocked, or at least thinks you will be.

One school of thought suggests music fans in 2005 have become irreversibly jaded and that rock music is therefore incapable of delivering an eye-popping shock. Alumni of said school are advised to head directly to Reno, the third track on Bruce Springsteen's 13th studio album, Devils and Dust. There, you can find the most astonishing sound you're likely to hear all year: Bruce Springsteen singing about anal sex. He's in character, of course, as a man visiting a prostitute, but somehow neither that, nor the song's delicate tune and wisps of slide guitar, softens the impact of hearing Springsteen's voice delivering the line: "Two hundred dollars straight in, two-fifty up the ass".
