Great song. Never heard it before so I tried to track down the band. They are called American Standard. Hard to get much info on them though. Seems there are a couple of groups with the same name.

Love the song too RAC...from what I could find it is off a CD called "Better Than Fiction" and the band is now called the Corey Aaron Band.

Unfortunately we have some crazy Koreans next to us and they are testing, probably as I write,their nuclear weapons. I've been to Hiroshima on a field trip and I guess if it's going to come our way then let my family be in the direct center of it.Alice and I lived in Japan for about 10 mos. The visit to Hiroshima was an experience I'll never forget.I've seen people that were only shadows on brick steps.They were the lucky ones. The survivors ran to a river that we walked over and jumped in because they were on fire.So many died but,it did end WWII.Yet,as looking American ,I was getting so many dirty looks...I didn't blame them.

I would Joanna, they started it. We ended it.

Joanna said...

I'm half Japanese so,I can see things from both sides.

DRL said...

Joanna, please do enlighten me about the Japanese side of it.
Is it the death march?
How about the slaughter of millions of Chinese, Filipinos, Americans, Australians and Pacific Islanders (both north and south)?
Maybe it was the alliance with Hitler?
No, maybe it was the kamikaze?
Was it the Sunday morning sneak attack on a peace time nation?

Joanna, I know you think because of your ancestry you have some allegiance to emperor Hirohito who swore the annihilation of us. Well, as we have learned, just because Hans is German, he did not support Hitler. Why then do you see the side of the people who swore to fight to the last man, woman and child? No wonder you have no problem with Obama's half hearted attempt.

DRL said...

Joanna, by the way. I too spent time in Japan, and even wearing my uniform off base, never had anyone look negatively at me. We are at peace with them now. I too visited Hiroshima, never a bad look. I spent time in Yokosuka, Yokohama, and Tokyo. Sounds more like you are ashamed to be an American. Are you going to apologize for "America's arrogance" like Obama did in France?

DRL said...

RAC, I didn't think you believed in Hell? Oh, I have fire insurance called salvation.
RAC, let Joanna stand on her own, she is not a little girl anymore.
