The Gitmo Random Ten

At the intersection of music and torture comes this list of songs played by interrogators at detention facilities around the world:

“Dirrty,” Christina Aguilera
“F*ck Your God,” Deicide
“Shoot to Thrill,” AC/DC
“We are The Champions,” Queen
“I Love You,” from “Barney and Friends”
“Born in the USA,” Bruce Springsteen
“Babylon,” David Gray
“White America,” Eminem
“Sesame Street” theme song

Other artists included "Aerosmith, Britney Spears, Don McLean, Lil’ Kim, Limp Bizkit, Matchbox 20, Rage Against the Machine, Red Hot Chili Peppers, and Tupac Shakur."

I'm just not seeing a lot of rhyme or reason here. Britney and Bruce should never be on the same list. And Don McLean is pretty soothing. Maybe the common thread is who gets the royalties. Can we chalk this up to Bush Administration cronyism? Follow the money!

(Yes, it's a serious subject, but any list with "Dirrty" in it doesn't get that treatment.)

...on a completely unrelated note, the baby from the Nirvana "Nevermind" cover is trying to extend his 15 minutes of fame. Despite the fact that we've all seen his penis.
