i'm absolutely crushing on saint motel's "at least i have nothing." and what's not to love? a slam-bang rock tune with exhilarating vocals and lyrics that should please every one of the 99%. myself included. whether or not it was intended the song is a social message. in many ways it's a protest song. but a peaceful protest, replacing the sounds of pepper spray cans with synths and kick drums. (yes!) the opening lyrics: "finally i can be true to a cause/i can be far from the money/i can be free from all jobs/and i know that sounds crazy/everything does/we're all gonna die here/at least we could try." yet they're not so much protesting as they are resigning themselves to the fact that they are the 99% and they're perfectly happy with that. whatever their position, or yours, this up-and-coming LA rock band may have written the ultimate occupy wall street anthem ever. and if you don't care to get too political or over-analytical about it, just rock out! the 1% wouldn't get it anyway.
