3. Yes I do.
I am not into this kind of music (music wise) but I do not dislike it. I thought it was powerful and the music in this case was perfect for the message. I was frankly a little stunned by it. Sorry about being out of it but who did this? I am going to send it around. Yes, I really did like it quite a lot.

...the groups name is OTEP. This is the first thing I've heard by them. It does ahve that stun you like a bat between the eyes effect, I agree.

Have you heard "What Woud You Do" by Paris yet? Another powerful song.

7. No I have not.
My oldest son is determined that I will not go the way of "old folks" so he gives me music he knows I will never listen to on my own but I had not heard of either of these. So tell me, is there protest music going on out there that us oldies might not be aware of? I was wondering about this the other day. Really, that was a powerful piece. I was just getting ready to paint my Re-Defeat Bush sign and was getting bored with it but this inspired me to get it done and hung up for tomorrow. Wow, thanks, it still is going through my head.

Another song that probably isn't your normal style, but that you will appreciate the message of.

I'm glad I could help re-inspire you.

4. Great message.
Not my normal choice in music, but the message was powerful and the music appropriate to the message and the audience targeted. May I share on other sites and by email?

BREAK FREE!

6. I wish it was mine to say yes.
I don't think there is any law against posting links to home pages though. Hey, go for it.
