1. got so psyched when I saw that last week, i went out and bought

a Bright Eyes CD. Unfortunately that song isn't on a CD yet and the CD I got is not that great, but yes that appearance on Leno was amazing.

fyi the video is also available on the Justice Through Music website. (in the right column).

3. I didn't even know about the performance

I haven't been watching Leno. I am SO GLAD this is online!!! The crowd went bezerk!

[garybeck]

9. I've never watched Leno...

the 'net was buzzing about this last week, and there was a thread on this forum, that's how I found out...

[whistle]

2. A new voice from the past....

...reminds me somewhat of Woodie Gutherie and Bob Dylan. "More liquor stores and dirty coke!" Wow.

[helderheid]

7. That's exactly it!

Iraq is my generation's Vietnam - I think we'll see more like this

[garybeck]

10. there's one difference this time

the music industry is controlled by big corporations, just like the media. it's going to be rough for musicians who try to take a political stand.

[whistle]

4. Could someone with better ears and typing fingers than me post....

...the words to that song here in this thread? Thanks.

BRIGHT EYES LYRICS

"When The President Talks To God"

When the president talks to God
Are the conversations brief or long?
Does he ask to rape our women’s' rights
And send poor farm kids off to die?
Does God suggest an oil hike
When the president talks to God?

When the president talks to God
Are the consonants all hard or soft?
Is he resolute all down the line?
Is every issue black or white?
Does what God say ever change his mind
When the president talks to God?

When the president talks to God
Does he fake that drawl or merely nod?
Agree which convicts should be killed?
Where prisons should be built and filled?
Which voter fraud must be concealed
When the president talks to God?

When the president talks to God
I wonder which one plays the better cop
We should find some jobs. the ghetto's broke
No, they're lazy, George, I say we don't
Just give 'em more liquor stores and dirty coke
That's what God recommends

When the president talks to God
Do they drink near beer and go play golf
While they pick which countries to invade
Which Muslim souls still can be saved?
I guess god just calls a spade a spade
When the president talks to God

When the president talks to God
Does he ever think that maybe he's not?
That that voice is just inside his head
When he kneels next to the presidential bed
Does he ever smell his own bullshit
When the president talks to God?

I doubt it

I doubt it

[whistle]

6. Thank you......

[Fly by night]

8. It's amazing this was on Leno. He's a major GOP ass-kisser.
