Rock On

John J. Miller of National Review has published his list of the 50 Greatest Conservative Rock Songs of all time., and also some additional comments references here. An interesting list, considering that a lot of the artists are themselves not conservative, but if you listen to the lyrics, what Miller finds is there. I just think that it's pretty cool that "Sympathy for the Devil" made it so high on the list.

Miller's additional comments actually makes a very good point; the songs he points out are less conservative than they are opposing big government. It is a very anti-establishment attitude, which we see a lot of in rock music and what makes the tunes so appealing (and it explains a lot about my CD collection....)
