not sure about this song and whether or not it is appropriate as a gesture for support for American troops...anyone know Outkast or this song 'Bombs Over Baghdad' who would care to comment?

article is from yesterday...searching for 'Capriati' resulted in articles from 2002, so apologies now if this has already been posted.

at any rate, glad to see an American supporting Americans in combat. kudos.

I've seen it used as background music for pro-military posts and Flash animations, so it's the right sort of song.

It's largely a song about the rhyming skills of Outkast themselves, implying that those who challenge them on the microphone had better bring it, because if they don't it's "Bombs Over Baghdad" for them.

This time:

We'll pull the thang out 'cause we came to bang
and we'll bang 'cause we plan to hit somethang.

[FloridaBoy]

Bombs over Bagdad....didn't the shock and awe king of fizzel?????????

[TRY ONE]

"...Don't pull the thang out unless you plan to bang..."

Wasn't this also added to "Hail to the Chief" while
Klintoon was around....

Personally I would prefer this little Metallica ditty:

Don't Tread on Me

Liberty or death, what we so proudly hail
once you provoke her, rattling of her tail
never begins it, never, but once engaged...
never surrenders, showing the fangs of rage

don't tread on me

so be it
threaten no more
to secure peace is to prepare for war
so be it
settle the score
touch me again for the words that you'll hear evermore...

don't tread on me

love it or live it, she with the deadly bite
quick is the blue tongue, forked as lighting strike
shining with brightness, always on surveillance
the eyes, they never close, emblem of vigilance

don't tread on me

so be it
threaten no more
to secure peace is to prepare for war
so be it
settle the score
touch me again for the words that you'll hear evermore...

don't tread on me

so be it
threaten no more
to secure peace is to prepare for war

liberty or death, what we so proudly hail
once you provoke her, rattling on her tail

so be it
threaten no more
to secure peace is to prepare for war
so be it
settle the score
touch me again for the words that you'll hear evermore...

don't tread on me

I knew there was something that I liked about Jen Jen.

[Britton J Wingfield]

I'd play "It's Clobberin' Time!" by Sick Of It All.

[TheSpottedOwl]

How about "Angel of Death" by Slayer? It's most definitely appropriate....
