3. Please, enigmatic:
"Democracy"
by Leonard Cohen, from the CD, "The Future" (1992)

It's coming through a hole in the air,
from those nights in Tiananmen Square.
It's coming from the feel
that this ain't exactly real,
or it's real, but it ain't exactly there.
From the wars against disorder,
from the sirens night and day,
from the fires of the homeless,
from the ashes of the gay:
Democracy is coming to the U.S.A.
It's coming through a crack in the wall;
on a visionary flood of alcohol;
from the staggering account
of the Sermon on the Mount
which I don't pretend to understand at all.
It's coming from the silence
on the dock of the bay,
from the brave, the bold, the battered
heart of Chevrolet:
Democracy is coming to the U.S.A.

It's coming from the sorrow in the street,
the holy places where the races meet;
from the homicidal bitchin'
that goes down in every kitchen
to determine who will serve and who will eat.
From the wells of disappointment
where the women kneel to pray
for the grace of God in the desert here
and the desert far away:
Democracy is coming to the U.S.A.

Sail on, sail on
O mighty Ship of State!
To the Shores of Need
Past the Reefs of Greed
Through the Squalls of Hate
Sail on, sail on, sail on, sail on.

It's coming to America first,
the cradle of the best and of the worst.
It's here they got the range
and the machinery for change
and it's here they got the spiritual thirst.
It's here the family's broken
and it's here the lonely say
that the heart has got to open
in a fundamental way:
Democracy is coming to the U.S.A.

It's coming from the women and the men.
O baby, we'll be making love again.
We'll be going down so deep
the river's going to weep,
and the mountain's going to shout Amen!
It's coming like the tidal flood
beneath the lunar sway,
imperial, mysterious,
in amorous array:
Democracy is coming to the U.S.A.

Sail on, sail on ...

I'm sentimental, if you know what I mean
I love the country but I can't stand the scene.
And I'm neither left or right
I'm just staying home tonight,
getting lost in that hopeless little screen.
But I'm stubborn as those garbage bags
that Time cannot decay,
I'm junk but I'm still holding up
this little wild bouquet:
Democracy is coming to the U.S.A.

I've thought about that song several times a week since late 2001. It's my "hope" song.

18. I just saw WSB on the playlist . . .
I lovelovelove "Roosevelt After Inauguration":

"In short, men who had gone gray and toothless in the faithful service of their country were summarily dismissed in the grossest terms -- like 'You're fired you old fuck. Get your piles outa here.'"

16. Got any Rank and File?
MrScorpio just played some Cowboy Nation, and I didn't realize it was the Kinman bros!

Bonus if you play something other than the only two R 'n' F songs I know--Rank and File and Amanda Ruth (no disrespect to the DUer with that username!)

Turnin' in, e! Have a good one!

MrScorpio's gonna think I'm nuts. I PM'ed him thanking him for playing Cowboy Nation.

Ah, well, thanks to you, e, I finally signed on to amazon and I've added it to my wishlist. :)

I think I have two requests left. Better make them good ones....

...you need to break Li'l Markie down into chapters or something. That was a LONG segment!

I confess, I listened to the rest at home and fast-forwarded to the next track.

I just couldn't maintain that feeling of wanting to slap someone who wasn't there to slap.

33. "Leave a Clue" was the only song of his I really liked
He's a Canadian one-man band (I assume this only applies to studio releases).


You can listen to the song here: http://music.podshow.com/music/producers/producerLibrary/artistdetails.php?BandHash=172c8c89114288cd5285bec369695c8c
