Title: Sociology Song...
Post by: (e) on December 01, 2005, 09:18:03 PM: I need to find a song that addresses a specific ( can be a general statement ) aspect of society today (War in Iraq, drug abuse, commercialism, rape, media-bullshit, etc.).

The song I was going to pick was Tool - Stinkfist ( \'Buy, Buy, Buy!\' ), but I\'m trying to find a different song.

Does anyone know some good songs, that would work? I looking for a NIN song, but Im having a hard time finding a solid example.

Thank you for the help

:)

One only needs to look back in the 70\'s...Plenty of music.

Hey - how about this classic?

...

"What\'s goin\' on?"

Or maybe..

"Imagine"

Ah...The classics.

There are thousands of songs that would be better choices than Stinkfist.

As always, John\'s lyrics and musical sense are great.. but it\'s sooooo idealistic and speaks of one-world government.

Y\'know, hell, I wouldn\'t mind the world throwing the reins over to LiC.

As long as I get to "moderate" some of the "forums", too.

Yes, I need a life.

Bob Dylan has plenty. John Lennon. Too many... You could find a better song than Stinkfist, but that is a awesome song.

Its a much deeper ( :laughing : ) song than I would ever imagine after I\'ve done this project.

I\'ll post my write-up on it after I turn finish revising it, if anyone is interested.
