If you watched the RNC last night you would have noticed that Heart's 70s classic "Barracuda" was used during the celebrations. This struck me as kind of odd. This feeling was confirmed when Heart released this statement today:
Sarah Palin's views and values in NO WAY represent us as American women. We ask that our song 'Barracuda' no longer be used to promote her image. The song 'Barracuda' was written in the late 70s as a scathing rant against the soulless, corporate nature of the music business, particularly for women. (The 'barracuda' represented the business.) While Heart did not and would not authorize the use of their song at the RNC, there's irony in Republican strategists' choice to make use of it there.
Yeah! you don't see Obama use any Damn Yankees songs. McCain also called Democrats "me first" types. Talk about twisted logic.
