Ok. I need to burn a CD in order to have some kind of anthem or soundtrack while I travel this summer. Here is what I’ve come up with:

• U2 – “The Fly” – I’ve rediscovered this song. When it first came out in 1992, it hurt my ears. Too harsh. Now it seems so tame compared to the other really hard rock music I’m into.
• Rage Against the Machine – “Calm Like a Bomb” – This was at the end of the Matrix Reloaded. Excellent music.
• U2 – “One” – Possibly the most poignant song ever written. I’ll probably have several different versions of it on this CD.
• MC5 – “The American Ruse” – See entry below
• The White Stripes – “Seven Nation Army” – Possibly the anthem for this summer. The White Stripes rock, ya know.
• Johnny Cash – “Ring of Fire” – Johnny Cash’s music is legendary. Just as relavent today as it was when it first came out.
• Liam Lynch – “United States of Whatever” – I heard this on Letterman the other night. Quirky song.

The CD will probably contain alot of U2 and The White Stripes. Both of which I’m really into right now. I go through phases. Sometimes its the Stripes. Other times its Oasis. Now its U2.
