Bless Bardot, Yoko Ono, and other "loonies" who make some people cringe and other people think. They could just as easily spend their time partying instead of continuing to march for a cause. <br /><br />Many songwriters just can't stick to silly love songs. Even Paul McCartney. "Looking for Changes" covered animal rights. Morrissey and Mylene Farmer have written sharp topical lyrics, as have such faves of the masses as Broooose Springsteen, Neil Young and even Madonna. <br /><br />Dylan wrote about Joey Gallo…someone a little flakier than Bardot. And the illfolks blog is spooner-named for Phil Ochs, Mr. "All the News That's Fit to Sing," so once in a while, you get a post like this. But I agree there's a line to be drawn, because a screed can get screechy. Or as Madonna put it, "Papa, don't preach!" <br /> Ill Folkshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08208537275049364194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13393846.post-47142761769986769752012-10-04T12:46:20.398-07:002012-10-04T12:46:20.398-07:00Wow, hold on...
