‘The Boss’ praises Catholic upbringing on Late Late

Music legend Bruce Springsteen [pictured] who was brought up a Catholic said he “wouldn’t change anything about the way I grew up” when asked about his Faith.

‘The Boss’ also said he has faith and the Bible has been “incorporated into so much” of his music, in an appearance on The Late Late Show last week.

Speaking via Zoom, presenter Ryan Tubridy asked Springsteen about a statement he made previously, in which he said “once a Catholic, always a Catholic”.

Answering he said that he has faith but he isn’t religious, and that “you can get away from your religion but you cannot get away from your faith, that’s my observation over the years”.

“There’s a little bit of truth in that once you are part of the team, once they nail you those first six years of your schooling, they got you for good in some way or another,” he continued.

“I’ve incorporated into so much of my music Biblical language and spiritual concerns are in so many of my songs that I live with it very easily now. I wouldn’t change anything about the way I grew up.”
