What song best represents Tuesday and the election; lots of folks have identified various versions of A Change is Gonna Come…great song even if folks know it best from American karaoke. <\/p>\n
For some reason, I think this Bob Dylan song gets it best, particularly for those who’ve waited. It’s as much the sound of the song as it as the lyrics… <\/p>\n
The ocean wild like an organ played,
\nThe seaweed’s wove its strands.
\nThe crashin’ waves like cymbals clashed
\nAgainst the rocks and sands.
\nLay down your weary tune, lay down,
\nLay down the song you strum,
\nAnd rest yourself ‘neath the strength of strings

I stood unwound beneath the skies
\nAnd clouds unbound by laws.
\nThe cryin’ rain like a trumpet sang
\nAnd asked for no applause.
\nLay down your weary tune, lay down,
\nLay down the song you strum,
\nAnd rest yourself ‘neath the strength of strings
\nNo voice can hope to hum.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
