It's meant for the Iranian people, and can be downloaded for free here. It was created with the intention that all people of the world stand together. And as my wife Teres is reminding me, over and over, because "Jon's so wonderful."

Here's the video. I never knew Jon Bon Jovi knew Farsi…

It's a club song, fast and driving, that backs up River's cutting and too-knowing questions to her Captain:

Nestled in the black
I find the time to be alone
Still hearing
everything
There is to know

You put a mask up on your face
You act like
you're a big disgrace
Just dont forget I know
Just what you know

Be sure to check out their other songs while you're there!

It's about time for a new Weird Al song, and he doesn't disappoint. Already available at various online outlets like  iTunes and Rhapsody, but I favor Amazon since there's no DRM on it. You can also buy the video you just saw.

This drove me nuts trying to identify the specific Doors song he's doing, but it's actually one of the style parodies he does sometimes, aided by original Doors keyboardist Ray Manzarek. Nicely done, sir. Just how much hootch did you have to suck down to get the mannerisms right?

Sat down and I got online
Heard the modem squealin', I was feeling fine
Everyone's asleep and they'll never know
That I'm grabbing dirty pictures fast as I can GO:

Porn in the CDA., there's still porn in the CDA
Check out the porn in the CDA, porn in the CDA

Nuthin wrong with a fantasy
But Congress knows what's good for me
Gonna legislate reality
Gonna save me til I'm 23

Porn in the CDA…

Click on a site and it wants my age
Needs a credit card 'fore it gives a page
Didn't know that there would be a quiz
Lucky I remember where my dad keeps his

They can't keep me out of there
Are they unaware
Newsgroups are everywhere?
Overseas sites have pictures to spare
I'm just so glad that my congressman cares now

They blocked the sites to try and teach me self control
At least I guess that was their ultimate goal
If I want smut I'll have to resort
To re-reading Kenneth Starr's report

Porn in the CDA, I want porn in the CDA
Porn in the CDA, I'm a red hot surfer in the CDA
Porn in the CDA, Porn in the CDA
Porn in the CDA, I'm a hard-clickin' surfer in the CDA

(with apologies to Bruce Springsteen and the American people…)
