I can't really see the whole appeal of masses of tribute songs, it's a bit pretentious if I may say so. To specifically designate a song to an event, a twisted and horrible event, is not a chivalrous thing to do in my opinion. If they truly meant it, they'd give all the money to charity perhaps? Afterall, it isn't really a 'donation' or a 'tribute' when you're making hard cash from it is it?
The constant reminders of September 11 are not something we have to do, they are political. The Bush administration actually specifically asked CNN to mention the September 11 attack after every report on it's war on terrorism. They are using the WTC attacks to rile up the American public, to get the public behind his war on terrorism. Bush is being written a blank cheque, to do whatever he wants, and he is loving it, espescially all the tribute songs and what-not.
I downloaded a track the other day called "Vanox & Scandle - Prime Suspect" and I almost puked. Come on this is just making money off the back of a tragedy, it's not even original. I even hear they are making a movie about September 11 - this soon after the attack! I can just see the script writers in Hollywood counting the dollars.
Anyway, others might disagree, but I find the whole concept a bit odd. I don't quite agree with it.
One more thing. Observe the following statements, I'll let you draw your own conclusions, but personally I find some of these a little disturbing...
