Young at Heart wanna be sedated
Hopefully, you've already heard about this 2007 documentary where a choir of Massachusetts seniors (many around 80 years old) cover modern rock and soul classics from the Clash, James Brown, Sonic Youth, Lee Dorsey and Coldplay among others. My favorite is their take on the Ramones' "I Wanna Be Sedated" especially since you get a real feel for the dire medical conditions outlined in the lyrics.
This was a fabulous movie! Everyone should see this, young, middle age and older! We must all keep our humour in life and these seniors did. Very real and well done! How can I get a CD on the song "I wanna be sedated' ?
