Crooks and Liars has video of Bruce Springsteen on Conan O'Brien's show singing "Bring 'Em Home" from his new album "We Shall Overcome:The Seeger Sessions". Written during the Vietnam War, it applies to today's Iraq clusterfuck as well. It's about as straightforward an occupation protest song as it can get. I'm ordering it up.
Fiddles and banjos? Springsteen? That don't hurt neither!
Git some, Boss!
Update:
According to "The songs of the Seeger sessions" site, "Bring 'Em Home" is on his "Seeger Sessions Tour" (NYT review) but not the CD. I'm a fan of all the Seegers as well as The Boss, so I'm getting it anyway.
