Weekend Rock List: Thankful Songs

11/26/08, 4:45 pm EST


Here at Rock Daily, there’s plenty of things we’re thankful for. Chinese Democracy. The Jesus Lizard reunion. Johan Santana’s left arm. To pay homage to those pilgrims who came to America to escape oppression and slaughter turkeys, this long weekend’s Rock List is dedicated to “thankful” songs. Tell us which thankful songs you’re most thankful for, and on Monday we’ll work off all those yams we ate by counting the votes and revealing the readers’ list. Before you start feasting or battling the Black Friday shopping crowds, here are our faves:

• Led Zeppelin – “Thank You”
• Fall Out Boy – “Thnks fr th Mmrs”
• Sly & The Family Stone – “Thank You (Falettinme Be Mice Elf Agin)”
• Alanis Morissette – “Thank U”
• Talking Heads – “Thank You For Sending Me An Angel”
