DNC: BILL WE LOVE YOU SO…
Is something happening here?
Again?
For What It’s Worth – Buffalo Springfield
“What a field-day for the heat
A thousand people in the street
Singing songs and carrying signs
Mostly say, hooray for our side
It’s time we stop, hey, what’s that sound
Everybody look what’s going down
Paranoia strikes deep”

Between Vietnam, Kent State, the power movements of the 1960’s, you hear a plethora of Buffalo Springfield’s For What it’s Worth.It is the best song for any station’s playlist when our government goes strong arm or there is a war going on that nobody wants or a police event where the young kids accuse the cops of doing their job. The group transmogrified into million dollar fee per concert CSNY who started out labeled as a studio group based on an off key debut at Woodstock. They got better as Steve Stills became one of the best acoustic guitar players,Young a folk rock prodigy, David Crosby ex Byrds rock maven added great songs and Graham Nash ex-Hollies lead continued to be the most charming protector of wayward whales.That song is perfect for today’s political model.I will agree with you there,Ellis,always a relevant song. Demonstrators are to Tea Party people is like Sal Mineo to stability.
