The Spin

I've been gagging and choking on political discussions over on Facebook lately.  It's not been pretty.  I won't go into it here, but suffice it to say that I, personally, disagree with many of my friends there.  That's OK, that's what makes this country go around.

But politics as usual has been really divisive and confusing of late.  These last few elections and then the whole debate over the health care issues have shown me more partisan bickering than ever before, and that makes me sad.  One reason is that so often, people base their opinions on party lines, and don't stop to think of the impact their diatribes could have on actual people.  And when those rantings and ravings are based on both biased and flip-flopping media coverage, it's tough to really know where to stand.

Anyway, that's what "The Spin" is really all about.  I don't trust Republicans, and I don't trust Democrats.  I'm lost in the middle, and I wish we could stop shouting and spinning and meet in the middle and get something real done!

Tonight, I cut the lead and harmony vocals for the song, and I'm pretty excited by it.  I hope to have it all done and released by the end of April!  "Dancin' their Lives Away" will be the next to fall...
