Playlist: Post-Election Blues

I won't try to explain every selection on this list; I'll just say that when I finished the last post, I really needed to hear some music.

I've got a feeling
I'm gonna get a lot of grief

Oh yeah, Elvis really does it for me. I bet he's feeling like an angry young man today.

Kevin:

Might I add REM's "Bad Day" and Flogging Molly's "Worst Day Since Yesterday" to the list.

Lori:

I don't have either song in my iTunes playlist, but they're good suggestions. They made me think of another U2 song I should add: "Dirty Day."
