"What's the Matter with the Well" by Ben Winship

Here's a song by Ben Winship about the BP oil spill:

Love is Strange

I like the song "Love is Strange," which I usually hear done by Mickey and Sylvia. Last night, I heard it done by Jackson Browne, in a medley with "Stay." That version also brought a smile to my face.
