stage? It was reminiscent of something from West Wing - but even better. Very inspiring. I want to get that on my iPod.

7. Thank you.
Stirring music, quite appropriate to the moment.

2. It reminded me of the music from the John Adams series. I don't
know what it was but I liked it too.

10. Please, only if it's the original artists singing them, I beg of you.
The convention would have been even better in my eyes if they would just have gotten the rights to use the original songs instead of the cover band that was reminiscent of a cheesy hotel lounge.

I'm a stickler when it comes to my music. There are very few covers I like. (One of them being A Perfect Circle's cover of Imagine, another Johnny Cash's cover of Hurt.)

17. The music at Invesco, yeah. The music in the Pepsi Center, bleh.
Before and after most speakers they played really good songs, but being played by a weird cover band that made them all sound exactly the same and crappy at that.

18. Hmm wasn't that Earth, Wind and Fire on at least one night?

4. Another music question if you can humor an old lady?
There is always a theme song being played, "lala lalalalala", is the refrain that keeps playing in my head. Someone tell me the name, so I can get it on my old lady ipod and put it out of its misery, lol? Thanks

16. I agree that it was reminiscent of West Wing
and in fact said that to a group of people I was watching the speech with here. A couple of people said they didn't really care for the music much.
