So if you feel blue that this song isn’t a confident get up and go anthem, that would be your explanation as to why: TEMPO ONLY.  As I always note, well, sometimes note, tempo is to a song what the weatherperson (Al Roker, Chris Cimino, Sam Champion) is to the news (Deborah Norville, Walter Cronkite, Wolf Blitzer).  The news is the *tone* fo teh song – and the melody.  The harmony is more important than tempo also.  So said, next comes rhythm – and though tempo comes last, like the weather report, turns out that the weather can effect everything reported by the Couric’s, O’Reilly’s, Gibson’s, Willimas’, Scarborough’s and Olberman’s.  God rest the soul of Timothy Russert, the last real reporter.   Requiem Eternum † – no one else is going to put a possible truth ahead of being killed.  I do not know that TR was killed.  Given the Smith & Wesson test, ie, gun to my head, wrong answer gets your head shot off: I was watching CNN in my father in law’s hospital room when the autopsy reults, unquestioned, were more detailed than other part of Tim’s death.  That was disturbingly familiar and similar to that which David Lipton wrote about JFK: that the newspapers in Australia knew of his death before the motorcade started – so much for the “land of the free and the home of the brave” – like this song, it gets more like the “land of the  corporate slave and the home of the diffident”
