...distinctly like the Clash riff from "Running," and the guitarist's name follows the tradition of the Police's Sting. Their respective riffs and even bass line give away U2's origins, nowhere else but New Wave. Yet, the drums Larry beats so maniacally in "I threw a brick" echo, and Adam Clayton's piano filters through indistinctly in the "October" intro. These effects make the music fuller and subtler than the whinings of New Wave groups, striving for a minimal instrumental texture...
...they are more concerned about inflation than recession, 37% find recession a greater concern. Among blue-collar workers, 41% are more worried about recession, with 48% of nonwhites feeling that way. Nonetheless, there is also little expectation that inflation will decline much more before 1984. In an echo of the pointed question that Reagan posed to Jimmy Carter during the 1980 presidential debates, the Yankelovich organization asked voters if they were better off now than a year ago. No, answer 59%, while 36% say they are better...
...halls of the White House echo with music almost every day and night, as visiting choirs take turns singing for the huge crowds that walk in awed silence through the candlelit state rooms.

...turners when appropriate; the players can even draw a schematic, with, say, green representing jealousy. The expressiveness can be considered poor when the emotional response of the audience lies more than half a spectrum away.

Then the Andante ("at a walking pace") espressivo begins, with major melodies blending into sterner, minor tunes at modulated keys. Taneyev might have been imagining anything about nature, the joy of life, or the prospect of low inflation...
...began quietly in 1979, almost as an echo from a bygone generation. Pastors delivered sermons on the virtues of peace. Antiwar groups, some with their roots in the '50s, passed out petitions and organized small demonstrations. Communist parties drummed up predictable anti-NATO sentiment. But gradually, as anger and fear began to take hold, the movement reached beyond its traditional constituencies, taking on a dimension that surprised even its organizers. Finally, this autumn it reached a crescendo. More than 2 million Western Europeans have demonstrated so far in the streets of the Continent's major cities?and weekend after weekend...
