Just for "This Song Won't Sell A Thing"...
This has to be the anti-anthem of anti-anthems! Releasing it into public domain was the crowning touch! Any sheet music or lyrics?

Meaning Isn't Based On The Importance Of Being, But On The Relationships In Between.
Well, what can I say? I didn't understand the whole lyrics since I'm not a native english speaker, but the bits i got are pretty amazing. Now music is all about tunes as well and even if I'd be illiterate I couldn't help myself and just looooove this music for ever.
