Heart ask Sarah Palin to stop using "Barracuda"

To Heart, McCain/Palin isnt alright, but for some POS 'Soccer-Mom' Van TV ad to use one of their songs is quite okay

The TV ad PAID for the use, the f-ing Refacisticans didn't.

I guess Ann and Nancy just don't want their song associated with an old geezer who could croak in office at any time leaving a true rightwingnut whackjob in the oval office to begin work on setting back women's rights and human rights in general back decades.I despise Bush no question but I would take that major league ****up back if I could before I saw this woman in the Presidency.

Sure enough, the track surfaced during Palin’s speech at the Republican National Convention on Wednesday night.

And sisters Ann and Nancy Wilson, who make up Heart, aren’t happy. A statement issued yesterday afternoon says: “The Republican campaign did not ask for permission to use the song, nor would they have been granted that permission. We have asked the Republican campaign publicly not to use our music. We hope our wishes will be honored.”

Unfortunately the song surfaced again last night, after John McCain’s speech, raising the Wilsons’ ire once more. “I feel completely ****ed over,” said Nancy. “Sarah Palin’s views and values in NO WAY represent us as American women. We ask that our song “Barracuda” no longer be used to promote her image.” Heart join Van Halen, John Mellencamp, and Jackson Browne as artists who have issued similar warnings to the Republicans about the use of their songs.

I think that is awesome and hilarious. It's good to see people who don't want to be associated with the Republicans......


GAWWW I hope Obama wins.
