What songs do you feel have a Conservative slant?

"No Easy Way Out" - Robert Tepper(Rocky IV)

[jungleboy]

How about Jonnie Horton singing The Battle of New Orleans...in Eighteeen Forteeen we took a little trip...

[mlmr]

Thank you I will look for them in the stores!

"I'd love to change the world" sounds VERY liberal to me.

"Tax the rich, feed the poor, until their rich no more"(Something like that). Good guitar in that song though.

[Dr. Frank fan]

everyone should check out the song City Hall by Tenacious D, if you don't mind profanity. Great, hilarious sendup of revolutionary thinking.

the band The Mr. T Experience has a song called Naomi, which is about Naomi Wolf (Ms. Advisor-to-Alpha-male-Gore) and which sounds pretty negative.

someone will probably mention The Trees by Rush, but just in case they don't...I will.

I wish the posting times still had the seconds. You'd see they were probably posted almost simultaneously. Didn't see your 'Roland' post. 8~)

Ozark Mountain Daredevils - If You Want To Get To Heaven

[FortheFuture]

In AMERICA - Charlie Daniels

[mc5cents]

You don't want to work, you want to live like a king But the big, bad world doesn't owe you a thing

The Eagles Rock!!

[alcuin]

Re your 46 (?): Yeah yeah yeah.

The POINT is that Lennon was ALWAYS ambivalent about ALMOST EVERYTHING, so all the stuff you quote can be considered DESIRABLE if you let Lennon's last WORD speak for itself.

I take it you don't.

WATCH THAT PARKING METER!

And which one is pink?

[Pharmboy]

No problema, my friend. I can't think of anyone but our Excitable Boy who could've written that one...

[Paul C. Jesup]

Mojo Nixon's song "You Can't Kill Me".

It is a very funny and very conservative song.

It uses a rock version of the music of Amazing Grace.

"Get Off My Cloud"---what a great song. Going through my head now.

[Dr. Frank fan]

how about Janie's Got a Gun, by Aerosmith...I know, I know, it's about a PC issue...

...but she's got a gun. That's gotta count for something! ;)

I was a huge fan of the 80s band Oingo Boingo. They're very anti PC, but not quite "conservative":

"Only a Lad" - mocks those that don't recognize individual responsibility.
"Nothing to Fear" - satirical call for political awareness
"There's Nothing Wrong with Capitalism" - exceptional! enough said.
"Grey Matter" - denounces a refusal to think (and popularized the term "gray matter")
"Fill the void" - eludes to the hollowness of the collective mind
"Nothing bad ever happens to me" - slams cowardliness
"Wake up (it's 1984)" - about what you'd think it would be
"Imposter" - Nails wannabes perfectly
"Dead or alive" - compares being unaware to being dead
"Perfect System" - ridicules statism
"On the Outside" - proudly claims a twisted independence
"New Generation" - warns against populism
"Skin" - begs to know if there's really a person alive under the skin
"Insanity" - portrays a non-grounded mind in a state of anarchy
"Mary" - depicts the sadness of a young woman realizing she completely outgrew her family and community while away.

For what it's worth, Oingo Boingo still has a loyal cult following. And the lead singer Danny Elfman (my screen name) went on to a very successful sound score career, winning a Grammy for Batman.

That's good then. I just get that one part stuck in my head.
