<![CDATA[Grist - Comment Feed for The Police reunion tour to benefit WaterAid]]> Grist Comment Feed en Comment #1 by caniscandida http://www.grist.org/article/every-little-thing-they-do-is-magic/ Tue, 13 Feb 2007 18:38:04 -0800 http://www.grist.org/article/every-little-thing-they-do-is-magic/1 "world music"

The discovery of "world music" in the 1980s is one of the great cultural benefactions of that otherwise greed-oriented decade.  Thanks to such enlightened artists as The Police, Paul Simon and David Byrne.

"Walking on the Moon" is one of the greatest love lyrics ever written.

But also, there is the unforgettable "Dee doo doo doo, dee daa daa daa, is all I want to say to you."

For the moral, compare the equally fine "Don't Know Much About History," James Taylor's version.

Chickens are our cousins! So are other sensitive animals! Enough is enough! No more factory farms!
