Here's hoping President Obama's words today that, "This moments of volatility" must become "a moment of promise" actually comes to pass. In the meantime, here are some promising songs for a very volatile moment in world history. And here's hoping everyone in Egypt can read The Huffington Post -- or anything else they want to read-- very soon. "Walk Like A Egyptian" - The Bangles "There's A Riot Goin' On" - Sly & The Family Stone "A Change Is Gonna Come" - Sam Cooke "Changing Of The Guard" - Bob Dylan "Wild In The Streets" - Garland Jefferys "Get Up, Stand Up" - Bob Marley & The Wailers "You Haven't Done Nothing" - Stevie Wonder "Respect" - Aretha Franklin "Riot" - Miles Davis "Riot Gear" - Regina Spektor "Little Egypt" - The Coasters "Simple Song Of Freedom" - Bobby Darin "Fortunate Son" - Creedence Clearwater Revival I Wish I Knew How It Would Feel To Be Free" - John Legend & The Roots "Ordinary People" - Neil Young "For What It's Worth" - Buffalo Springfield "I Predict A Riot" - Kaiser Chiefs "Killing In The Name" - Rage Against The Machine "Wake Up Everybody" - Harold Melvin & the Blue Notes Now wake up, and please add your own songs for Egypt.
