What DOES constitute a well-written protest song?
CSN&Y's "Ohio?"
Buffalo Springfield's "For What It's Worth?"
Mellencamp's "To Washington?"
Lennon's "Imagine?"
Marvin Gaye's "What's Goin' On?"
Springsteen's "Born in the USA?"
CCR's "Fortunate Son?"
Good song structure and decent lyrics that cause, at least, thought and reflection......Neither of which that steaming piece of shit Joel and his daughter's BFF and Starbucks buddy wrote.
It's just a shitty song.
