Since the beginning of time, man has yearned to destroy the sun.

RIP Pete!

I have this Amnesty International 4 CD set full of Dylan covers and the only song I regularly listen to
is Pete's cover of "Forever Young" which is crazy awesome. His voice shows all his age but is still so full
of optimism and love. The childrens' choir should be kitschy as all gently caress but somehow it just sounds like
the world's coolest grandpa singing with his family. Actually that's exactly what it is.

On one of the Pete Seeger tribute albums, he did a duet of The Ghost of Tom Joad with Bruce Springsteen. It's never been my favorite Springsteen song (although the High Hopes version is pretty good), but Seeger completely makes it his own and sells it.
