Barracuda - WTF?!

Did the Republicans even bother reading the lyrics before stealing it as their theme song?


"If the real thing don't do the trick
You'd better make up something quick"

Indeed!

Reminds me of when Ronald Reagan used Springsteen's "Born in the USA", apparently not realizing that it's an anti-war song critical of the government.

Heart's "Barracuda" has always been one of my favorite songs, since I was a kid. Let's take it back! Ann and Nancy want us to.

About This Blog

This is increasingly not a blog about Alphabet City, New York. I used to live in the East Village and work on Avenue B, but I no longer do. Why don't I change the name if I'm writing about Japan and video games and guitars? Because New Yorkers are well-rounded people with varied interests, and mine have gone increasingly off the rails over the years. And I don't feel like changing the name. I do still write about New York City sometimes.

About Me

My Photo
I'm married. I like to travel. I have no kids. I have a house... that I'm bad at maintaining. I used to collect classic video games. I'm the proud owner of two Fender Jazzmasters, a Gretsch G5422DC, and a Fender Twin Reverb amp - all musical equipment far better than my ability to use it. When I was younger, I was in a band. I like gadgets, and I'm an Android guy. Someday, I would like to go to outer space.
