“Sarah Palin’s views and values in NO WAY represent us as American
women. We ask that our song ‘Barracuda’ no longer be used to promote
her image. The song ‘Barracuda’ was written in the late 70s as a
scathing rant against the soulless, corporate nature of the music
business, particularly for women. (The ‘barracuda’ represented the
business.) While Heart did not and would not authorize the use of their
song at the RNC, there’s irony in Republican strategists’ choice to
make use of it there.”
We share their anger, and we think that a much more appropriate song choice would be “Homecoming Queen’s Got a Gun” by Julie Brown.

A word of advice you’re an idiot who represents everything that is wrong with youth/entertainment obsessed America. Cleary you are not an artist of any kind or have any respect for artist and the arts (which believe it or not can include popular music). You must be a huge McCain supporter; because there is no way any progressive socially conscious person would agree that Heart should feel honored having their song chosen to represent Paulin. Lastly fyi, they didn’t choose a song that no one remembers, duh, they chose a song EVERYONE remembers, hence choosing that song.
Obviously I am a Heart supporter.
What a buch of has beens bitching. They should be lucky someone even remembered their stupid song. They should feel honored.
