Killer hooks, solid guitar crunch, a sprinkling of harmony, and touching lyrics make Jimmy Eat World’s Bleed American the best new album I’ve heard in 2001. The eleven songs should all get on the radio to enliven the musical landscape and revive the power pop genre.

Right now, the […]

A bunch of unthinking, Lefty musicians are banding together to oppose President Bush’s energy plan. Fine, let them try putting on a show by candlelight. What caught my attention was this paragraph from the news story:

[Alanis] Morissette hopes to bring attention to the New Power Project’s cause with her July 31 show in Anchorage, Alaska, […]

Jonathan Rauch has written the funniest book review I’ve ever read. His fictional dialogue mocks Russel Roberts’ The Invisible Heart. Within the playful review, Rauch gives his one-sentence review of the plot:

Ah, that classic story: Boy meets girl, boy spouts hard-core free-market theories that repel girl, boy gets girl.

Rauch does like the book even though […]

Lance Morrow notices a dramatic wound to Western Civilization’s respect for human life. A French court ruled a disabled child could receive damages because doctors didn’t offer his mother the option of abortion. Morrow writes:

The court’s logic—which is the true deformity—would encourage wholesale prenatal slaughter. It stigmatizes the handicapped and states, as a principle […]

While making some sensible points about musicians and the music industry, Alanis Morissette had to put her foot in her mouth when she equated musicians’ rights with a woman’s right to an abortion. “For me, this is a moral issue equal to a woman’s right to choose,” she said. So, Ms. Morissette considers the right […]
