Several years ago National Review magazine ran an article that listed the 50 Greatest Conservative rock songs of all-time. And while Soda didn't make that list, it should have. The lyrics could easily have been written and sung in the 1950's - and that's actually why I like this song. He and his girl have found pure, true love. They aren't smoking crack or getting hammered together and fighting, or sharing needles; they're drinking soda! I just love that. I mean that to me is pure love, and it makes him so happy he just wants to go...jump in a lake! I hope that some day all of us may find that pure, innocent love where just being with that person and staring into their eyes while sharing a soda could be enough.
