Starbucks Says Springsteen's Lyrics Leave Too Much of an Aftertaste
Monday May 9, 2005
Starbucks has refused to sell Bruce Springsteen's new album, "Devils & Dust." Execs say the lyrics to "Reno" are too steamy for their 6,400 locations.
"Reno" describes an encounter with a prostitute and, despite its parental warning sticker, Starbucks says it's a no-go. Newsweek reports Starbucks axed plans to carry "Devils & Dust" after a cross-promotional deal fell through.
