- mbeckLA, on 10/09/2008, -0/+1This is sweet. Perfect soundtrack for hard times.
- mnoe, on 10/12/2008, -0/+1There's a bunch of great additional suggestions in the comments section of that article (Simply Red fans notwithstanding).
My vote goes to Woody Guthrie's "Do Re Mi" ("California is a garden of Eden, a paradise to live in or see / But believe it or not, you won't find it so hot / If you ain't got the do re mi").
Or, "I'm Busted" ("My bills are all due and the baby needs shoes and I'm busted"), whether performed by George Jones, Johnny Cash, or Ray Charles.
