Just saw this link posted on The Huffington Post. It's not really new, but I thought the exposure on this blog was cool. The link will bring you to the SNL performance of WWS and the full Rolling Stone interview.

The comments are not very complementary.

I've seen comments like this around the web and I still don't understand it. Why are protest lyrics supposedly so profitable? It seems like they piss off just as many people as they inspire. It would be much more popular to sing about universal themes that don't alienate anyone.

Not to mention Ed's lyrics have *always* been political. But especially so since Binaural. What the fuck is with people?

thanks for the more direct link. I read a few of the comments and got bored. Still, exposure is exposure.
