Dion's anthem never ceases to move me--though I'm a realist about politics, I still can't believe our society has birthed and given platforms to or access for such brutal acts of violence against those who want to enrich us. Hearing lines like "my old friend Martin, or john, or Bobby" still make me wonder why we can't see true friendship and instead have to obliterate it.

So a big 98 on that one.

I like the Stewart and Winter songs, too, and give both a 92.

I'm not a religious person, but the Jefferson Airplane's "O Good Shepherd" moves me beyond recognition.
