Friday Night Music-Common People

I'm wandering a bit here from my recent theme, which has been music Republicans have been forbidden to use. I'm stealing his from my son, who posted it on Facebook. It's not completely off theme, as I'm fairly sure The Pulp would not take kindly to Romney using their music, though I'm also pretty sure […]

Friday Night Music

Yet another song the Republicans have been told not to use, and yet another mystery as to why the party of conformity would want to use it. You have to assume that they don’t listen to lyrics. If the song title seems to fit, that’s all they need to know. I’m posting two versions of […]

As much as I might be tempted to play “Don’t Stop Thinkin’ about Tomorrow” in honor of the Big Dog, who gave a heck of a speech, though I will refrain from remarking on the Simpson Bowles reference, I am going to stick to my announced plan to feature songs that Republicans have been told […]

Political blogging will be sparse, though who knows, I may inflict […]

Friday Night Music

I sort of wracked my brain trying to think of a song about someone (think Romney) who keeps putting his foot in his mouth, but couldn’t come up with anything, but I finally found this, which is somewhat apropos. The fact that the first comment on youtube was to the effect that it would be […]

Friday Night Music-Romney’s Song

Friday Night Music-Romney’s lament

Friday Night Music

A bit hurried tonight. I got a new computer today, and have been busy migrating my data and applications from the old one. Anyway, I don’t think I’ve done Carole King before. A great songwriter.
