Coincidence?

As I was working on the above post and letting iTunes shuffle the music on the computer, two appropriate songs came along:

First was Volunteers by Jefferson Airplane

Look whats happening out in the streets
Got a revolution got to revolution
Hey Im dancing down the streets
Got a revolution got to revolution
Aint it amazing all the people I meet
Got a revolution got to revolution
That hearkens back to a lot of things but at the same time reminds me that the "revolution" may hopefully continue to be alive in the American Spirit.

But perhaps even more to the point was another great song- Redemption Song by Bob Marley
Old pirates, yes, they rob i;
Sold I to the merchant ships,
Minutes after they took i
From the bottomless pit.
But my hand was made strong
By the and of the almighty.
We forward in this generation
Triumphantly.
Wont you help to sing
These songs of freedom? -
cause all I ever have:
Redemption songs;
Redemption songs.
