	Tom Joad is a character from The Grapes of Wrath (a great book about the Great Depression.) The book focuses on "man's inhumanity to man" and police brutality. Tom Joad ends up killing a cop after the cop kills his friend (the preacher who was waiting for the last to be first....) This is a really eye-opening song.

	This song has alot of allusions (as does the Grapes of Wrath). We were going over how this song alludes the Grapes of Wrath, and how alot of the Grapes of Wrath was alluded to Biblical passages and what not. My teacher and I were talking after class about what the Grapes of Wrath had to do with the Bible; what we got out of it was that the title was from the book of Revalation, and how they were searching for the "Promise Land" in the book, which is also the term used for the great place the Hebrews would be going after being saved from the eperor by Moses. I just think that's kinda interesting, and I'm not even really religious. But I guess Catholic school isn't so bad after all. hah

No Picture Austin Average	#3 by Austin Schrauben at Aug 30, 2006 at 8:19 PM EST
	Yeah this is a remake of a Springsteen song. This might be the best cover I've ever heard.
