Musical Change

With all the blather of "change" in politics, would it be unreasonable to suggest some tunes to accompany such a revolutionary concept? A Rhapsody track search for "change" turns up some 6,175 results. Many of the cuts are simply titled "Change." But there are others like:

• Change Everything
• Change Game
• Change History
• Change Today
• Change, Change
• Change Things
• Change Me
• Change It
  
• Change Direction

David Bowie's "Changes" most likely tops the "change" chart, although other known (to me anyway) artists have jumped on the bandwagon:

• Melissa Etheridge -- Change
• Tears for Fears -- Change
• Blind Melon -- Change
• Good Charlotte -- Change
• Keb' Mo' -- Change
• Dolly Parton -- Change
• Lionel Richie -- Change
• Oingo Boingo -- Change
• Beanie Sigel -- Change
• Stevie Ray Vaughan -- Change It
• Eric Clapton -- Change the World
  

I listened to some of these and none of them really reach out an wallop you. None of them seem like a fit to whip supporters into a frenzy before and after a speech. Campaign theme material? Maybe not, but there are certainly copious choices to choose from.

As a pointless extra: there are some fun(ny) artist/band names employing the word "change" in their song titles. Ones like:

• Spike Speedwrench
• Liquid Grace
  
• Minister Majestic
• Cobalt Minor
• General Monk
• I Am I See
• Dirty North
• MilkDrop
• Middlecage
• Hard Bark
• BlindCamper

Major Update: ABC News obviously read this post, inspiring them to publish a story called: Candidates' Theme Songs Set Campaign Tone
