Unfortunate Sons

Anyone else getting the sneaking suspicion that we're still hanging around with these wars in Afghanistan and Iraq cause we're waiting for a good soundtrack to accompany them? I mean, look at any movie about Vietnam. Great soundtrack, right? Every one, you got CCR, you got Gimme Some Loving, you got the Stones, you got Motown and on and on and on. Not only is this music of it's time, and INCREDIBLE music, but it's what people were actually listening to on a grand scale at the time. Meanwhile, what music will be in Iraq movies? 50 Cent? Avril Lavigne? Weezer? Pop music is so splintered there's no big music to attach to such large events as a war. Ironically, pop culture in general is no longer popular enough to define our culture.

So if Obama is waiting for these wars' CCR, I got news for him: give it up.- XMASTIME

Here's 5 SONGS YOU DIDN'T KNOW WERE ABOUT THE VIETNAM WAR. I'll be honest: I had no idea Last Train to Clarksville would be on this list.
