Liner notes

Share a song that represents rebellion or freedom to you.

It would have to be something by the Stones, wouldn't it? Rebellious songs were their stock in trade. The menacing-sounding Jumpin' Jack Flash fits the bill, but I think another song exemplifies it better—one sung by Keith Richards, who in his 1970s guise must surely be the ultimate emblem of rock 'n' roll rebellion. So Happy it is—not about rebellion for its own sake, but in pursuit of happiness and living in the present moment.
