24 hours to go.
I still can't let myself hope, but this song seems to help.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=umj6nUyfZAg

U.S. Blues

Red and white, blue suede shoes, I'm Uncle Sam, how do you do?
Gimme five, I'm still alive, ain't no luck, I learned to duck.
Check my pulse, it don't change. Stay seventy-two come shine or rain.
Wave the flag, pop the bag, rock the boat, skin the goat.
Wave that flag, wave it wide and high.
Summertime done, come and gone, my, oh, my.

I'm Uncle Sam, that's who I am; Been hidin' out in a rock and roll band.
Shake the hand that shook the hand of P.T. Barnum and Charlie Chan.
Shine your shoes, light your fuse. Can you use them ol' U.S. Blues?
I'll drink your health, share your wealth, run your life, steal your wife.
Wave that flag, wave it wide and high.
Summertime done, come and gone, my, oh, my.

Back to back chicken shack. Son of a gun, better change your act.
We're all confused, what's to lose?
You can call this song, the United States Blues.
Wave that flag, wave it wide and high.
Summertime done, come and gone, my, oh, my.

1. I'd like to dedicate this one to McCain and his cohorts

The End Of The Line
by Metallica

Need more and more
Tainted misery
Bleed, battle scars
Chemical affinity
Reign, legacy
Innocence corrode
Stain, rot away
Catatonic overload

Choke, asphyxia
Snuff reality
Scorch, kill the light
Incinerate celebrity
Reaper, butchery
Karma amputee
Bloodline redefined
Death, contagious deity

Hooked into this deceiver
Need more and more
Into the endless fever
Need more and more
New consequence machine
Burned through all your gasoline
Asylum overtime, never mind
You�ve reached the end of the line

Time, choke the clock
Steal another day
Die faithfully
Narcissistic fade away
Twisted, jump the rail
Shatter the crowd below
Breakout, chase the ghost
The latest high to all-time low

3. Sounds pretty good.
The only album I have from Metallica is the "Black" album. I been hearing that Death Magnetic is just as good or better.

5. Yeah, IMO Death Magnetic is a much better album
I think it's the best thing they've come out with since the 80s and a lot of my fellow Metallica fans are of the same opinion. As much as Metallica probably hates it, you can find all of the new songs online. Thery are quite a bit heavier than what's on the Black album, techinically more difficult to play, longer in duration, and just all around kick assier. Check out "Cyanide" and "My Apocalypse." I think you'll see what I mean. There are also a couple of songs that start out kind of like ballads, but pick up the pace as they get deeper in to the songs. "The Day That Never Comes" and "The Unforgiven 3" are like that.
