Agreed. _Me and Mr. Ray_ is so great....

Yes, "The Greatest Night in Pop." The recent (ongoing?) CNN documentary series on Live Aid is also good.

This is in reference to the Utah-BYU football game, of course, just to clarify.

Unanswerable. But my favorite song of the year, and the one playing in my head lately, is "Hope" by Vampire Weekend:

I hope you let it go
I hope you let it go
The enemy's invincible
I hope you let it go

(Maybe someone else will lighten the mood....)
