Completely forgot about this song, found the album knocking around in my box of cassettes from college days.
Basically Pearl Jam with shouty jesus-obsessed Chris Cornell bellowing over the track as well.
Superb.
And "Collateral" is a damn fine film, Michael Mann does it again.

One nation under god has turned into

Television, the drug of the nation
Breeding ignorance and feeding radiation
T.V., it satellite links

apathetic therapeutic and extremely addictive
the methadone metronome pumping out
150 channels 24 hours a day
you can flip through all of them
and still there's nothing worth watching
T.V. is the reason why less than ten percent
of our nation reads books daily
why most people think Central America means Kansas
socialism means unamerican
and apartheid is a new headache remedy

it shapes our mind the most

watch for the PBS special
it's the perpetuation of the two-party system

I remember searching high and low for a copy of it on CD. Actually I think it was released in 92 over here although I could be wrong.
At one point I seem to recall several discussions between my mates about whether or not this album actually existed. On the first listen it lived up to its mythical status for us... good times, good times.

I think i might get the soundtrack for Collateral, i remember it being good.
Superb track indeed. In fact Temple of the Dog still holds its own 14 years (I cant believe its been that long) after its release.
