Righteous rock: Conservatives’ agenda includes cool songs
Boston Herald, MA
May 26, 2006
....In its June 5 issue, right-wing political magazine National Review names the top 50 conservative rock ’n’ roll songs. The Who’s “Won’t Get Fooled Again” topped the list, followed by the Beatles’ “Taxman.” The list was born last year when the magazine’s national political reporter, John J. Miller, asked online readers to nominate their favorite conservative songs. The only criteria: the lyrics had to have a conservative slant, such as preaching family values or advocating for a libertarian government....
Aerosmith also made the cut with “Janie’s Got A Gun” (No. 28) for showing “how the right to bear arms can protect women from sexual predators.” Miller... has yet to hear from any of the artists who made the cut. “I’m waiting for Pete Townshend to call,” Miller said.
