I've nicked this ide of the radio fro way back but I thought it might inspire...
Everyday someone picks a News Story and then you have to come up with songs that "fit" that story.
I'll start off with an easy one the world economy is in a downslide with the Recession.
My first 3 tracks would be...
Money (That's What I Want) - The Flying Lizards
Time Tough - The Toots and the Maytals
Money - Pink Floyd
What would be yours ....????

This is the first song that's come to my mind too!
So I'd say:
Argent, trop cher - Téléphone |

lovesick-bob dylan i'm cheating with this one, but this song was used in a victoria's secret's ad, fulfilling dylan's wish to only sell out if he could "sell ladies undergarments"

Well, I was hoping today's topic was going to be "Pregnant Woman Running From Bear Gets Hit by Car," but this is good, too. It all happens in Detroit, doesn't it?
