Radio Nowhere by Bruce Springsteen

This song is about the music now of days going to waste. It states in the song, "this is radio nowhere, is there anybody alive out there." This is saying the music on the radio is crap it is going nowhere. 
He says, "I just want to hear some rhythm." That is saying that the music does not have any rhythm just a plain beat that goes out throughout the song. He wants to hear "thousand drums" and "a million different voices speaking in tone." He wants to hear instruments not just sound affects and a catchy beat. He wants to hear something that takes over a IQ of 50 to write. 
I agree with Bruce. Music now of days is people repeating and repeating the same lines over and over again. I feel that of all of the recent music that Bruce has published; this is one of his best. Remember, I said recent, of course "Thunder Road," "Born to Run," "Jungleland," and etc. are better, but this song is pretty dang good.
