This is in response to the post that started the thread-
Though I am definitely NOT an Obama supporter, I do not think that the new protest songs will alienate anyone. They are (as I have already posted in another forum) the best kind of protest songs- very nonspecific, not mentioning any particular events or people. Which allows even me (an anti-establishment libertarian) to enjoy the tunes immensely even if Lu is shilling for an establishment cat like Obama.
In addition, I don’t think we have to worry about Americans changing their thinking… no offense to my fellow Americans, but as long as they continue to watch tv, I don’t think that “thinking” is much of a concern.
I’m loving this release. Though I was dissapointed to see Lu supporting Obama (I hate to see any of my faves shilling for the Man), she records the best kind of protest songs- songs that don’t mention a specific person or setting, leaving the interpretation completely up to the listener. Which means that even an antiestablishment libertarian like myself can enjoy them. Great ep, highly recommended.
