WORLDWIDE WEDNESDAY: The Pogues, "Maggie May" (Rod Stewart)

Once again, Sir Peter Jordan...

We lost an astonishing politician this week. Baroness Margaret Thatcher died Monday morning. Do I love her? Do I hate her? Maybe the song/band choice will give a hint.

U2, "The Ground Beneath Her Feet"

Tomorrow, Salman Rushdie turns 64.  Have a listen to U2's interpretation of his novel of the same name.  Musical interpretation, at least, as the words are taken directly from the book.  The song was included on the soundtrack of U2's Million Dollar Hotel.  Rushdie approved.  Hopefully you do, too.  Enjoy.
