Red Rider - Lunatic Fringe:

Awesome rock tune with a cool synthy intro. Sounds like it might be about partying. Well, kind of; it's about preventing right-wing extremists from assassinating progressive political figures:


Fun fact :eng101: Red Rider was in the middle of recording this song when they heard the news of John Lennon's murder.
