griffen's journal:
Post the lyrics to an anti-war song.
( Waist Deep in the Big Muddy -- Pete Seeger )
This song was written about Vietnam, but it applies to Iraq completely. It was also part of a fight in another war: CBS executives originally censored it when Seeger performed it as part of a medley on the Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour. The Smothers took their case to the press, and in the end, Seeger performed the song on the show. I can't imagine a network backing down like that these days, unfortunately.

The current playlist I'm obsessively listening to:
"Move On" - (Sunday In The Park With George) Mandy Patinkin & Bernadette Peters
"One" - (A Chorus Line) Cast
"La Vie Boheme - I Should Tell You - La Vie Boheme B" Original Broadway Cast
"Do You Hear The People Sing?" - (Les Miserables) Michael Maguire & Cast
"Tonight" - (West Side Story) Larry Kert And Carol Lawrence
"I Go To Rio" - (Boy From Oz) Hugh Jackman & Company
"The Little Things You Do Together" (Elaine Stritch)
"I'll Never Fall In Love Again (Promises, Promises)" Jill O'Hara, Jerry Orbach
"The Music Of The Night" - (Phantom Of The Opera) Michael Crawford
"On Broadway "- (Smokey Joe's Cafe) Adrian Bailey, Frederick B. Owens, Ken Ard, & Victor Trent Cook
"I Wanna Be A Producer" - (The Producers)Matthew Broderick And Ensemble

Although I mixed the playlist using "shuffle" it now occurs to me that I should have started with "Comedy Tonight" and ended with "Moving On."
