Good Friday

It's still a few hours away, but I spent some time putting this video together. Wouldn't really call it a "pop art" video, because it has more obscure/underground stuff in it. Maybe you'll recognize some of the clips.

Enjoy! (maybe)

1. Nice work!
I couldn't help but think of "Sam Stone" by John Prine. I guess it it
was the footage from Iraq of that video of people being
shot up by a helicopter.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sl9ZkYViEIs&feature=related

Sam Stone came home,
To his wife and family
After serving in the conflict overseas.
And the time that he served,
Had shattered all his nerves,
And left a little shrapnel in his knee.
But the morphine eased the pain,
And the grass grew round his brain,
And gave him all the confidence he lacked,
With a Purple Heart and a monkey on his back.

Chorus:
There's a hole in daddy's arm where all the money goes,
Jesus Christ died for nothin' I suppose.
Little pitchers have big ears,
Don't stop to count the years,
Sweet songs never last too long on broken radios.

2. Thanks...I hadn't heard that.
I need to listen to more John Prine...the only song I've heard by him previously was "Your Flag Decal Won't Get You Into Heaven Anymore."
