The last five songs on ITunes, while I’ve been writing:

5. Where Grass Won’t Grow (George Jones & Emmylou Harris)
4. The Road Goes On Forever (Joe Ely)
3. Scherzo from 9th Symphony (Beethoven)
2. Wang Dang Sweet Poontang (Ted Nugent)
1. Town Called Heartbreak (Patty Scialfa)

I’ve never liked Nugent – at least, not his music. His persona – the gleeful counter-counterculture bit, the gun-toting drug-eschewing Republican rock and roll star – was cool (and needed) and all, but good Lord, his music sucked.

Except, y’know, butted up against Beethoven.
