Though “Joy” definitely owes something to U2’s rediscovery of feel-good anthems, Jagger’s old-school inflection and nasal twang a la Billy Corgan gives the chorus “Jump for joy” a strut that Bono seems almost incapable of these days. “Hide Away” is so infused with trademark Jagger-swagger it would turn new-found fan Britney green.

"And there were a lot of developments this week." Bush doesn't want to be announcing the results of each nasal swab; that's what Health and Human Services Secretary Tommy Thompson and Homeland Security czar Tom Ridge are meant to do. But Wednesday they were saying little and nothing, respectively, so Bush's silence just compounded the concern about who knew what and who was in charge and where this...
