First off, Rocketqueenz if you're going to blame someone for quote on quote "fucking up" a song, at least know what the fuck you're talking about. After all since Billy Howerdel composes the music and Maynard only writes the vocal melodies/lyrics and in this case they altered a piece only. With that note, I would just like to state once more that this is not a saddened song and I really don't notice how everyone is seeing it this way. There is a purpose and a motive (hint: eMOTIVE) behind the covering of the songs which are to appear on this album. Stating something has to be done, and we are the ones whom have to do it. Urging people forward to be more knowledgable and independant. To strive and work towards the goal of a better "country" in this case. It is good to see there are people sticking to the original in it's happy and unified presentation. Do not debase the song without means though considering these artists are more talented than 90% of musicians present in the world today. No severely dry or repitituous melodies. The harmonic quality to all of their pieces. This song works more for inspiration of fighting for a goal or purpose more than the first as it was more pacifistic. So obviously we can look at this with many different opinions, yet the song itself promotes the acceptance of other opinions and not to so rashly and harshly act. Think on it for a bit, I can't say how emotion invoking this version of the song is. Altered from the light, melodic piano piece to a heavy, slow, drawn out piece with a steady progression. Diverse opinions are quite nice to view, uneducated opinions are bothersome and demoting of the persons who write them.
