Barack and Roll

The best tracks inspired by Barack Obama

Posted Jul 10, 2008 10:40 AM

Song: "I Want Barack"
Artist: J.J. French
Platform: The Twisted Sister guitarist rewrote his band's classic hit "I Wanna Rock" in support of Obama. The song split the coveted Twisted Sister vote, as frontman Dee Snider is a longtime John McCain supporter.
Awkward Rhyming? Not a ton, though the verses do get a little too tongue-twistery for their own good, like "The Republicans/All they really wanna do is keep everything the same/Corruption everywhere/Women's rights and civil rights continue going down the drain."
Electoral Votes: 400. It's mostly buoyed by the already-awesome chorus of "I Wanna Rock," though this track does contain the best guitar solo on this list.
