Really? Michael Mcdonald... Really? Your cool, but your Republican fans have ruined America.

[dootsmasta]

I'm pretty sure a Republican bad enough to ruin America would not be a big fan of a guy who dedicated his performance at the 2008 Dem National Convention for "the many, many, many Americans who want their country back."

Thoughts?

Someone should post the studio version by Michael McDonald; It rocks! Marvin Gaye would be proud!

@SAMME24 Why do some people need to make everything political?

[Spartanm333]

She is called Yvette 'Baby Girl' Preyer - she is a wonderful lady who hugged my daughter warmly and walked to the front of the stage mid gig to give my 8 year old son her drum sticks -- made their year - both of them. And yes it was really nice to be able to take my whole family to a gig....
