No Picture paste your name Average	#3 by paste your name here at Dec 3, 1983 at 7:43 PM EST
	The song was in the early '70's student protest movie "The Strawberry Statement" (and "Almost Famous"). A song about violent revolution ala "Street Fighting Man".

No Picture Jesus Average	#4 by Jesus Christ at Sep 23, 1984 at 10:51 PM EST
	I like this song ever since I saw Almost Famous, it's a good song, I didn't know Tom Petty covered it, but this was the original.

No Picture Eric Average	#5 by Eric Zinkhon at Jul 25, 1986 at 9:36 PM EST

No Picture David Average	#6 by David Tims at Sep 16, 2004 at 11:29 PM EST
	By the way, it starred Peter Sellers. Just in case you didn't know it! lol Sorry about that repeat. Another thing, "The Magic Christian" was released in 1969.
