I'll leave out the politics..... being from Europe I notice I have a rather different view on things than most. Let's just say things didn't work out on a personal level last year, and this year isn't any better, even worse. So I would say Fade to black by Metallica pretty much sums up my year.
My apologies as I'm not sure this is in the same context of Nrchy`s question. But for me being a relative newcomer to Lucinda Williams music Id purchased her latest CD "Live at Fillmore" in or around September '05'and hearing many of the towns and locations in her music at the same time hurricane Katrina slammed into the Louisiana coastline bordered on the surreal, really kinda odd in a strange sort of way- albeit great music all the same.But I guess for me personally this disc will always bring back that memory of those unfortunate enough to be caught in Katrina's path.Nice thread;Regards-Tim W.

Third try... Randy Newman's 'Political Science' and Kingston Trio's 'Merry Minuet'. Interesting that I can't get posted but others can make what are, arguably, very provocative comments.
Rob, Thanks. I think I thought of that, but I could stand to be corrected. Usually my best ideas were thought of by somebody before me anyway. As the good book says, "there's nothing new under the sun".
We are the world, we are the children, we are the ones who make a brighter day so lets start giving. There are people dieing, we're giving our own lives, it's time to make a better day, just me and you.
