What We All Want
I was watching the Packers on Fox Thursday Night. Believe it or not.
Anyway, the fadein/fadeout song that they played was "What We All Want" by Gang of Four.
It seems a bit odd for a violent sports broadcast on a right wing, violent, war promoting network to play a song by a punk band with uncompromising leftist lyrics.
This one ranks up there with CBS using Green Day's Boulevard of Broken Dreams during the NCAA tournament, or CBS using Queens of the Stone Age's Little Sister on football broadcasts.
Are these songs put on there by hipster techies trying to slip one by the bosses, by sophisticated media wizards, or I am underestimating joe six pack sports fans, and they really do appreciate this music?
