'Ghost of Tom Joad' Returns (Again)

Great new vid by Mumford and Sons and Elvis Costello, doing one of my favorite Springsteen songs (memorably in live Morello/Bruce version), "The Ghost of Tom Joad," mixed with one of my favorite Woody Guthrie tunes, "Do-Re-Mi," for global anti-poverty campaign. Concludes with a bit of "So Long It's Been Good to Know Ya"--and even a reference to "So Long, Marianne."   Many more here.

The songs "Ghost" and "Do" don't go together. Totally different moods. I'm not much of a mash person.
