My Protest/Good Music CD
I made this mix CD to collect music from bands that I think are good. All of the songs share the theme "The political situation in the U.S. and or the world could be improved."
- 16 Military Wives - The Decemberists - This song is wonderful and the best things The Decemberists have done other than The Tain.
- Helicopter - Bloc Party - The Bloc Party are good at playing their guitars will be huge in America soon.
- 2 + 2 = 5 - Radiohead - A lot of people that are a lot smarter than me have said a lot of smarter things about Radiohead.
- Revolution - The Beatles - I wanted to only put new music on this list but this song wouldn't let me.
- Right Right Now Now - Beastie Boys - On one hand these lyrics are pretty shallow as far a politcal commentary goes. On the other hand this might be the only anti-gun rap song.
- Holiday - Green Day - Most comebacks (cough...U2) feature watered down versions of past glory. Green Day is back with smarter, better music. Epic.
- Price of Gas - Bloc Party - The new Bloc Party album is so good they get 2 songs.
- Rebellion (Lies) - Arcade Fire - Congratulations, the Arcade Fire has been recommended by some idiot on a weblog 1,000,000 times.
- No Reason - Sum 41- If you are sad the Metallica is not good anymore you should just listen to Sum 41.
- When the President Talks to God - Bright Eyes On one hand this song probably isn't very good. On the other hand it was free on iTunes.
- I Believe in Miracles (Live) - Pearl Jam - This Ramones cover easily bests Pear Jam's own Bushleaguer.
