Bush Campaign Drops Song After Writer Complains
http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&cid=638&e=2&u=/nm/20041029/en_nm/campaign_song_dc

MANCHESTER, N.H. (Reuters) - The Bush campaign agreed on Friday to stop playing the 1976 hit "Still The One" -- by the band Orleans -- at Bush's rallies, after the song's writer, John Hall (news), protested its use by the president and backed the challenger, Democratic Sen. John Kerry (news - web sites).



"The song 'Still the One' will no longer be played at our rallies," said Nicolle Devenish, Bush campaign spokeswoman.
