Cry Me A Sand Dune A few musicians are releasing anit-war songs to show how they're all cool and loving and go against the grain. The Beastie Boys came out with one, and Lenny Kravitz is doing one with an Iraqi pop star. Yes, that's right, an Iraqi pop star. I didn't think Iraq was allowed to have pop stars, so he must be one of Saddam's sons. It's the only explanation. Plus you probably wouldn't have to be that good a singer to be a pop star there. I think if you can't raise goats well they make you a pop star; it's almost a punishment. But why no pro-war songs? I could see Kid Rock and every other country singer coming out with one, being that they love being American but still fly Confederate flags. I'd at least give them credit for having the balls to sing them.
