One of the highlights of 2001's Concert for NYC was Five For Fighting's haunting performance of Superman.
Five For Fighting
isn't a group, it's the stage name of John Ondrasik.Musicians hate labels, so I'll use Glenn Reynolds' description: He called Ondrasik's politics "right-leaning."
I just got done listening to the latest Glenn and Helen Show podcast; the Instapundit and Dr. Helen Smith interview John Ondrasik.
A supporter of the troops in such songs as Two Lights and Freedom Never Cries, Ondrasik will show his support in another way--he'll soon travel to Guantánamo Bay to perform for our military down there.
In addition to his music career, John is the force behind the soon-to-launched web site What Kind of World Do You Want? From what I can gather, it works like YouTube, only when you watch a video, 49 cents goes to a charity. One of those charities is Fisher House, which supports the families of members of our military injured or wounded in the line of duty.
