Middle aged woman wants happening music recommendations

[demnan]

yeh, the last I got was Green Day so what are the great anti bush albums you would recommend to this old boomer.

[GOPNotForMe]

1. Rilo Kiley's song "It's a Hit" is very anti-Bush/anti-right wing.

It's on their album "More Adventurous" which, as a whole, I have enjoyed listening to.

[I Know How To Do it]

4. Rickie Lee Jones has made a moderate return to form on her new CD

There's a song called, "Tell Somebody"

Tell Somebody (Repeal The Patriot Acts Now)

Not long ago it was alright
There were no bad dreams that kept me up at night
It was not brother against brother
Mother against mother

So tell somebody,
You've got to tell somebody
Tell somebody what happened in the usa

Now they want us to just get in line
Behind a president
When you know they spent milions of dollars
Condemning and accusing
The last one from the other side

Tell somebody, tell somebody
Tell somebody
What's happening in the usa?
Tell somebody, tell somebody
Tell somebody
What happened in the usa

Tell somebody, tell somebody, tell somebody...

I want to know how far you will go
To protect our right of free speech?
Because it only took a moment
Before it faded out of reach...

Oh, tell somebody, tell sombody right now
Tell somebody
What happened in the usa?
I wanna read about it in the news
I wanna hear about it on tv, yeah
What happened in the usa?
When they ask you
What happened in the usa?
Tell sombody.
They'll wanna know, oh people

The depth of our democracy
Is only as good as the voices of protest she protects
Voices of protest - rise!


I wouldn't say she's exactly hip or happening, but protest music can come from unexpected places.

[ScreamingMeemie]

5. Middle aged mom confessing that Emimem is in her CD player
