Behold- The Official Obama Soundtrack…
What a wonderful idea, just when the hurting economy is one of the biggest news stories in the U.S. you can pitch $25-30 of disposable income (depending on whether you want a physical copy or just a download) on this new 18 track compilation (well, new is relative seeing as most of the songs have already been released).
The track listing is as follows:
1. Eternity – Lionel Richie
2. Signed Sealed Delivered – Stevie Wonder
3. Waiting On The World To Change – John Mayer
4. American Prayer – Dave Stewart
5. Battle Cry – Shontelle
6. Make It Better – Los Lonely Boys
7. Pride In The Name Of Love – John Legend
8. I Have A Dream – BeBe Winans
9. Am I All Alone – Suai
10. One Is The Magic # – Jill Scott
11. Love & Hope – Ozomatli
12. Looking East – Jackson Browne
13. Out of Our heads – Sheryl Crow
14. Promised Land – Malik Yusef with Kanye West and Adam Levine of Maroon 5
15. Hold On – Yolanda Adams
16. America The Beautiful – Keb’ Mo’
17. America – Ken Stacey
18. Wide River – Buddy Miller
So there you have it. When you want to listen some tunes that make you think about change (holding back from making a wisecrack about pocket change) now you have an album just for you.

For shits and giggles, I broke the album down by race (Because I'm crude like that):
9 tracks (50%) by African American artists
6 tracks (33%) by Caucasian artists
2 tracks (11%) by mixed groups (African American and Caucasian)
1 (6%) track by latino group
I'd wager the Obama campaign most certainly put thought into the demographics.
…and by gender:
12 tracks (67%) by male artists
6 tracks (33%) by female artists
