A little preshow music to put us in the mood
What's playing at your house right now? I've got "Sir Duke" and "Carolina in the Pines," both of which I heard played back-to-back on a store's in-store system recently, heh-heh. (Coinkydink?? Not in SE Michigan.) And also "Don't Stop Thinking About Tomorrow" simply because it's a great general theme for the Dem party, and it never fails to fire me up and get me out of the doldrums. Also "Here Comes the Sun."

Any other ideas? I'm combing thru my MP3s right now.

KICK CHENEY'S EVIL, PASTY ASS TO THE CURB TONIGHT, JOHNNY!!!!

Playing "Band of Brothers", myself.

3. The soundtrack to "Kill Bill."
Looked dead, didn't I? Well I
wasn't, but it wasn'T for lack fo
trying, I can tell you that.
Actually Bill's last bullet put me
in a coma. A coma I was to lie in
for five years.
When I woke up, ...I went on what
the movie advertisements refer to
as a Roaring Rampage of Revenge. I
roarded and I rampaged and I got
bloody satisfaction. In all, I've
killed 33 people to get to this
piont right now.
I have only one more.
The last one.
The one I'M driving to right now.
The only one left.
And when I arrive at my
destination.....
.... I'm gonna Kill Bill.

5. Got to unleash the PE to get me started
Fight the Power

1989 the number another summer (get down)
Sound of the funky drummer
Music hittin' your heart cause I know you got soul
(Brothers and sisters, hey)
Listen if you're missin' y'all
Swingin' while I'm singin'
Givin' whatcha gettin'
Knowin' what I know
While the Black bands sweatin'
And the rhythm rhymes rollin'
Got to give us what we want
Gotta give us what we need
Our freedom of speech is freedom or death
We got to fight the powers that be
Lemme hear you say
Fight the power

As the rhythm designed to bounce
What counts is that the rhymes
Designed to fill your mind
Now that you've realized the prides arrived
We got to pump the stuff to make us tough
from the heart
It's a start, a work of art
To revolutionize make a change nothin's strange
People, people we are the same
No we're not the same
Cause we don't know the game
What we need is awareness, we can't get careless
You say what is this?
My beloved lets get down to business
Mental self defensive fitness
(Yo) bum rush the show
You gotta go for what you know
Make everybody see, in order to fight the powers that be
Lemme hear you say...

Fight the Power

7. REM's "Stand" and
U2's "I Will Follow"

Seconds by U2 - a few lyrics:

Takes a second to say goodbye, say goodbye
Push the button and pull the plug
Say goodbye

Martha and the Vandella's "Dancing in the Streets"

And of course REM's "End of the World As We Know IT"

10. A few more
Just for Dick -- "A Whiter Shade of Pale" and the Eurythmics' "Love Song for a Vampire" and "If I Had a Million Dollars."

Hey, found one for Kneel Bushit: "One Night in Bangkok."

I'll be ready for the debate this Friday with "It's Friday, I'm in Love."

And for the final debate, a little Don Henley:

This is the last worthless evening
That you'll have to spend
Just gimme a chance
To show you how to love again
This is the last worthless evening
That you'll have to spend
'Cause I'll be there
When your broken heart is on the mend

Heh. This is fun.
