Song Recommendation
June 21st, 2007 by joby
Jon comments on Senator Clinton’s selection of a theme song for her campaign:
[S]he has Celine Dion’s “You and I” as the campaign’s official theme song. Ms Dion is Canadian!! There were no American singers available? And it was chosen by a web-contest? What this tells me is that Hillary wants to be popular. A theme song is supposed to inspire, to let us know what you believe in. Hillary tells me that she wants a popular song, and that she doesn’t have enough confidence to voice an opinion on a song she likes.
My roommate for my Sophomore year of college came up with the best campaign song (particularly for a Presidential campaign): Megadeth’s Peace Sells
What do you mean, I don’t believe in god?
I talk to him every day.
What do you mean, I don’t support your system?
I go to court when I have to.
What do you mean, I cant get to work on time?
I got nothing better to do
And, what do you mean, I don’t pay my bills?
Why do you think I’m broke? huh?Chorus
If theres a new way,
I’ll be the first in line.
But, it better work this time.What do you mean, I hurt your feelings?
I didn’t know you had any feelings.
What do you mean, I ain’t kind?
I’m just not your kind.
What do you mean, I couldn’t be president, of the United States of America?
Tell me something, its still we the people, right?Chorus (repeat)
If theres a new way I’ll be the first in line, but, it better work this time. can you put a price on peace?
Peace,
Peace sells…,
Peace,
Peace sells…,
Peace sells…,but who’s buying?
Peace sells…,but who’s buying?
Peace sells…,but who’s buying?
Peace sells…,but who’s buying?
No, peace sells…
