Wow, you get TWO posts today, Dear, Lucky Friends. First up, it's Tuesday, which means it's time for another splendid edition, this time the 20th, of the Contrast Podcast. This week's theme is all about song dedications, so tune in and hear who --or what-- moves each illustrious contributor to song. Mine's a sappy one, I fear, so get your insulin jabs in beforehand...

Should you feel moved to comment, you can do so here.
This week I didn't really have much difficulty in choosing what to submit, hence there is no runner-up track per se. That said, a recent musing by Dear Colin at Let's Kiss And Make Up on pop and political consciouness set me to ruminating, which in turn caused a certain tune to start playing on a loop in my mind. Maybe I'm also still hung over from last week's Contrast Podcast theme of 'War & Peace,' but I'd like to dedicate the following track to fascists of all stripes and creeds. Wise up, suckers, you're bound to lose!!
Billy Bragg & Wilco - All You Fascists (buy here)
Stay tuned - more posting later tonight!

Awwww FiL, I thought your dedication was just lovely and I do love Harvest Moon it is such a beautiful song. I seem to fall in love with Neil Young every time I hear one of his songs.
Great job!
aw, i went the emo route!
you guys did a great job this week. (i just made my official contrast post at my blog. i'm going to embaress myself further. haha)
Dearest Colin, I'm always happy to bear with you! And yep, Sir Tim's Voxtrot cover is ace.
Thanks, Brother Merz!
Dearest Rachel, must admit I only reallygroove on bits of Neil Young's catalogue, but this one slays me each time.
Dear Bethanne, nothing wrong with going the emo route. And what's with this Omaha lad? Doesn't he know a good thing (i.e. you) when he sees it? Sheesh...
