Los Angeles, Oct 4 (NationPress) Iconic artist Bruce Springsteen has only taken the stage for karaoke once, and he has no plans to do it again. The renowned singer-songwriter recently shared his thoughts on this disheartening experience.

During an appearance on ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live’, Springsteen reflected on his karaoke attempt, as reported by ‘People’ magazine.

When asked by Kimmel if he had ever participated in karaoke, the 76-year-old rock icon paused before responding, “I did.” Kimmel, 57, humorously reacted, “You did?” Springsteen continued, “Yeah. Once. I was in a small bar in London. They were doing karaoke, and I thought, ‘I’m going to get up and do some karaoke.’ I chose to sing the Temptations’ ‘Ain't Too Proud To Be’.”

Kimmel enthusiastically replied, “Oh, hell yeah.” Springsteen then recounted his expectations, “I thought I’d get up there, sing a few notes, and the crowd would go wild. But as I sang, they perceived me as just another a** trying to take the stage for karaoke,” said the 20-time Grammy winner. “It was truly disappointing. I’ve never attempted it again.”

According to ‘People’, the ‘Born in the U.S.A.’ artist was on the late-night show alongside Jeremy Allen White, who is set to portray Springsteen in the upcoming film ‘Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere’, which details the creation of his minimalist album Nebraska.

Prior to Springsteen’s karaoke story, White, 34, shared his experience of singing in character, stating, “There were about 300 enthusiastic background actors, many from New Jersey and possibly from around Asbury Park.” He described filming at the historic Stone Pony venue in Asbury Park, New Jersey, saying, “They were so excited, and I felt their energy. I really got lost in the moment. When they called cut, everything went dead silent,” which drew laughter from the audience.
