This morning as I was driving to work I was listening to Phantom Planet simply because I like them and I haven't listened to them in a while (I have like over 1600 songs on my iPod-and that would be a good old fashioned video iPod from like 2006-ish-). Anyway thier song called "Anthem" came on and well I really like it cause I think that they hit upon something really important.

"cause this whole world needs an anthem
And I?m trying to put the words where they belong
Yeah this whole world needs an anthem
And I'm hoping everyone will sing along"

Personally I believe that music is incredibly important to people, even if they don't realize it, and yeah we all have our National Anthems... but is nationalism the problem here? No, probably not. and btw- I am NOT anti-US or anything 'k? I'm just saying the when the world began to nationalise it seemed to make things in general worse.

My point is, well maybe the way to get people to cooperate with each other is to connect through something like music. I know that I am always open to new, different sounding things.

Until someone writes and Anthem for the world:
