Nobody who makes music wants John McCain to use it for his campaign. The campaign has used and given up on songs by John Mellencamp, Chuck Berry, ABBA, and freshman Democratic Representative John Hall.
There was a groan at McCain headquarters as it suffered yet another musical derailment. An attempt to use Abba’s “Take A Chance On Me” also bombed. “We played it a couple times and it’s my understanding [Abba] went berserk,” Mr McCain said.
Lately, McCain even used music from the video game Medal of Honor: European Assault, and made the composer of that piece upset.
