there's no time for doubt right now
yuletide sign-ups are imminent! \o/
I've been meaning to do a little meta post on the subject of requesting, but I'm having trouble concentrating on much of anything just now. olivia_circe asked me to share my cathartic Election Day mix, so I thought I might:
1. Don't Pull It Down (Hair, original Broadway cast)
2. American Idiot (Green Day)
3. America (Bree Sharp)
4. America Is On Sale (Alix Olson)
5. I'm Afraid of Americans (David Bowie)
6. I'm So Bored With The U.S.A. (the Clash)
7. Political Science (Randy Newman)
8. War (Jonatha Brooke & the Story)
9. Marti's Last Stand (Enter the Haggis)
10. Holiday (Green Day)
11. Empire (Dar Williams)
12. Voice of God Is Government (Bad Religion)
13. The Democratic Circus (Talking Heads)
14. Sweet Dreams (Tori Amos)
15. God's Country (Ani DiFranco)
16. Talkin' Bout A Revolution (Tracy Chapman)
17. Revolution (the Beatles)
18. America. (Simon & Garfunkel)
19. Won't Get Fooled Again (the Who)
20. Coming Up (Ani DiFranco)
Bonus track: We Believe (In Barack Obama) (the Hush Sound)
Zip file available here.
Very random assortment, like most of my taste. I wound up using the mixtape version of the Obama song, because I think I like it better, and the bits of Clint Sparks really don't hurt the message. :) Thanks, Rel, for that version of Coming Up!
So yeah. Cynical, angry music for the most part. Four years ago I think I just listened to the whole American Idiot album on repeat. Hope is really damn difficult.
My Amanda Palmer ticket came on Friday! \o/ I cannot wait. Also, I'm debating trying to get into the Harper's Ferry Fall Out Boy show . . . it would be kind of amazing to see them in such a small venue. Not sure how I'd swing it, but!
Oh, Arthurian Smallville. I am so not impressed with you, but having boys moan other boys' names on their (potential) deathbeds never hurts. *g*
