This is my choice for the theme for BloodhoundBlog Unchained. Teri Lussier has a different idea, which I’ll share with you tomorrow. If you think both of us are all wet, say so by email, telling me what you think our theme should be. Be assured that there will be music. It it’s too loud, you’re too old.
This is Tom Petty again, covered by Eddie Vedder of Pearl Jam. The song is I won’t back down — in many respects the theme song of my own life. Petty has hundreds of letters from people who turned to this simple little shit-kicker song for strength when they were confronted, by threats or temptations, with the prospect of betraying their own souls. I can’t think of a more important job for art to do than to lend people the courage to be who they are, damn the consequences.

Eddie Vedder singing anything by Tom Petty is going to be good. Plus, it was Pearl Jam who went up against Ticketmaster back in the early 90′s.
In short: GOOD CHOICE!
a dissident! great cover. It’s got my vote.
“Fight the Power” by Public Enemy
suggested by Brian Brady…Priceless…but only if he agrees to Karaoke the song at the conference…
“I can’t think of a more important job for art to do than to lend people the courage to be who they are, damn the consequences.”
Perfectly put, Greg. Couldn’t have said it better.
