That's great! Neil has always been my favorite American rocker. (The WHO my favorite Brit. rock band.) He might seem like a lib, he may even call himself one, but I've always seen his POV to be more of a smack against BS than a particular political view. Hope my 'puter will play that .wav.

NY-Sleeps With Angels
Following you around on such threads is so rewarding. I am impressed with this new song...I hear a bit of a David Bowie lick in there...I respect the lyrics and the POV NY is taking with them. He espouses freedom, justice, good over evil...even mentioning Satan. Hmmm. Makes me wonder what spiritual conclusions NY has come to these days. He would be one of very few famous folk that I would like to sit down and have a chat with.
After listening to the song and reading the chorus lyric, I contend that NY uses the line "time is runnin' out; let's roll" not only in reference to our war on terrorism and what Mr. Beamer did and said on 9/11, but also to comment on the situation of our disappearing liberties in general in the US and in the world. I think he sees what we see, Tiger. I think he might even be a Christian..."If you seek Me with all your heart, you will find me," the Lord has said...and NY always was a seeker.
PS - I love you. Can I be your "Cowgirl in the Sand"?
