Makes me wanna "Cry" indeed.  G&C start us off with a Katrina, but U2 make amends.

U2 was a nice rarity (bustout even?) but I've always thought this JCM song was exceedingly dumb.
Let's get right to it.

See I love the Godley & Creme, "Three Sunrises" is my all-time favorite U2 song, and now we got "Justice & Independence" from JCM, which is my favorite song on that album.  So I'm thinking this is gonna be a pretty sweet set.

classic Morey segue there: Reagan speaks and then "the nation cried" (JCM, "Justice & Independence", BOS)

not even that rare, more like uncommon.

The JCM is, lyrically, absurdly ponderous (his parents named him "Independence day"?  He met a girl named Justice? and then they... I can't go on) but JCM redeems it musically.
