Seriously though, that song gets me every time. The only light I can offer is that we've been through this before and we won, so I have to think that we will win agaifn.

(37,114 posts)I was hitchhiking from Indiana back to Michigan. As soon as I crossed into Ohio the cops picked me up took me back to the staton an search every thing I had and questioned me. I was thinking WTF. Never been picked up for hitchhiking before.
They finally let me go and when I got to Ann Arbor I found out why.

(24,335 posts)but I was alive (if under five years old) so that when I did become more aware it was very recent history and we had won. That's what I took away from it and I still don't think it's a bad lesson. Musically, the song is haunting from the very opening. I still get chills when I hear it.l
