National Review's Top 50

National Review's Michael Long and some friends have compiled a list of the top fifty conservative rock songs ever. I didn't even know there were that many conservative rock songs but NR claims to have found them.

Each day this week they're presenting one of the top five with an explanation of why it's included. Today the have number five and I think it'll surprise you. I've often thought that this song presented a moral message somewhat out of touch with the mainstream, but I was surprised to see it in the top five, especially since I don't think of it as an instance of rock music.

Anyway, go here to see what it is and to read the rationale for ranking it so high.
