What should our SONG be for the 2004 campaign?

"Don't Stop Thinking about Tomorrow" was perfect. I don't even remember what Gore/Lieberman used.

I love "Walking on Sunshine". An optimistic message. Is Outcast too far out?

Your very best creativity is needed.

Never did and never will.

The Eve of Destruction, because that's where he's taking this country.

They would not use it but it definitely makes sense in context of the times.

except the fact that they would offend blatantly with the use of foul language, but i say, whats to fear? just words... that will be all...

Na-na na-na-na na na na na na na, hey hey hey, goodbye
Hey hey-hey, goodbye

Na na na na, na na na na, hey hey hey, goodbye
Na na na na, na na na na, hey hey hey, goodbye

Maybe a little cliche but what the hell.

Tom DeLay:"I challenge anyone to live on my salary" <$158,000 a year>

-- "Hit the Road, Jack" for rallies and for the Inaugural, Aaron Coplan's "Fanfare for the Common Man." To address the period-specific sexist title, a woman should conduct the orchestra.

:hippie:

It would sure fit our mood. Might turn a few voters off though.

A good disco beat....

I really like "how can I mend a broken heart"

We’ve been waiting so long,
We’ve been waiting for the sun to rise and shine
Shining still to give us the will
Can you hear me, the sound of my voice?
I am here to tell you I have made my choice
I’ve been listening to what’s been going down
There’s just too much talk and gossip going ’round
You may think that I’m a fool, but I know the answer
Words become a tool, anyone can use them
Take the golden rule, as the best example
Eyes that have seen will know what I mean

The time has come to take the bull by the horns
We’ve been so downhearted, we’ve been so forlorn
We get weak and we want to give in
But we still need each other if we want to win

Hold that line, baby hold that line
Get up boys and hit ’em one more time
We may be losing now but we can’t stop trying
So hold that line, baby hold that line

If you don’t know what to do about a world of trouble
You can pull it through if you need to and if
You believe it’s true, it will surely happen
Shining still, to give us the will
Bright as the day, to show us the way
Somehow, someday,
We need just one victory and we’re on our way
Prayin’ for it all day and fightin’ for it all night
Give us just one victory, it will be all right
We may feel about to fall but we go down fighting
You will hear the call if you only listen
Underneath it all we are here together shining still

Surprised thatt his one hasn't been mentioned.

Rewritten by ME!

The reason why, Oh we can say
We have to let you go George, and right away
After what you did, you can't stay on
And we'll probably feel a whole lot better
When you're gone

George for a long time, you had us believe
That your war was all fine, and that's the way it would be
But I didn't know, that you were putting us on
And we'll probably feel a whole lot better
When you're gone

Now we've got to say, that it's not like before
And we're not gonna play, your games anymore
After what you did, you can't stay on
And we'll probably feel a whole lot better
When you're gone
Oh when you're gone
Oh when you're gone
Oh when you're gone

Fenris, you're my hero...I am a fanatic for Gene Clark, who wrote the original. And I bet he would be proud of your re-write!

I love Gene's lyrics. He was so brilliant.

By Queen.

I've been walking through your streets,
Where all your money's earning,
Where all your building's crying
And clueless neckties working,
Revolving fake lawn houses,
Housing all your fears,
Desensitized by TV,
Overbearing advertising,
God of consumerism,
And all your crooked pictures
Looking good, mirrorism,
Filtering information,
For the public eye,
Designed for profiteering,
Your neighbor, what a guy.

BOOM, BOOM, BOOM, BOOM,
Every time you drop the bomb,
You kill the god your child has born,
BOOM, BOOM, BOOM, BOOM.

Modern globalization,
Coupled with condemnations,
Unnecessary death,
Matador corporations,
Puppeting your frustrations,
With the blinded flag,
Manufacturing consent,
Is the name of the game,
The bottom line is money,
Nobody gives a fuck.
4000 hungry children leave us per hour,
From starvation,
While billions are spent on bombs,
Creating death showers.

BOOM, BOOM, BOOM, BOOM,
Every time you drop the bomb,
You kill the god your child has born,
BOOM, BOOM, BOOM, BOOM
BOOM/BOOM/BOOM/BOOM/BOOM/BOOM/BOOM

Why, why, why, why must we kill, kill, kill, kill
Our own, own, own, own kind...

BOOM, BOOM, BOOM, BOOM,
Every time you drop the bomb,
You kill the god your child has born,
BOOM, BOOM, BOOM, BOOM
BOOM/BOOM/BOOM/BOOM/BOOM/BOOM/BOOM
Every time you drop the bomb.

but i suppose that would piss some people off because it has the F word... but hey... at least its a truthful view of the world.

"Run Through the Jungle."

No ifs, ands or buts.

I WILL NOT TOLERATE DISSENT ON THIS POINT

THIS IS A NON-NEGOTIABLE DEMAND

AND I WILL ENFORCE THIS DECISION BY ....

... well, I dunno what I'd do, but SOMETHING.
