A song about using video to bring new life to heavy touching – a crash course for the ravers. I’ve always been weird, but babe, I ain’t the freaky one this time around. Salut. http://www.davidbowie.com/
I’ve got to tell you, that was a swell time. So now I’ll take the butts away and put the glasses on the tray. I’ll see you all next saturday. http://gordonlightfoot.com
From the immaculate Tapestry, available everywhere under the sun. I just love the line, “Now, you look so unhappy, and I feel like a fool.” One of the greatest records of all time. No question. It is all about facing the challenges with courage, which reciprocates with confidence, making you stronger and more importantly, better the next time around. Aren’t there like 7 Billion people on earth? http://www.caroleking.com/
I found this little gem and it brought a smile to my face seeing that clear guitar. Isn’t this where Prince got the idea for the symbol? http://www.tr-i.com/

There isn’t much as valuable in life as famous people and musicians telling you who to vote for. I’m sure you have a lot of things in common with these people, so you should surely vote for who they tell you best suits your life. In Britain, every few years all the musicians and stars get together and support a candidate who they inevitably hate several years later. Regardless, Rock The Vote is out on tour and 1.5 million people and counting have registered to vote through www.rockthevote.com, making this the largest youth voter registration drive in history. In the last two weeks alone 231,371 people have downloaded voter registration forms from Rock The Vote’s website. Additionally in 2008, Rock the Vote has engaged more than 2.5 million members and over 100,000 mobile phone activists.
