Christopher Hitchens dies

By Bethonie Butler

Christopher Hitchens in D.C. in 2010. (Marvin Joseph — The Washington Post)And in light of the sad news Friday about Christopher Hitchens’s death, we wonder what song would honor the quick-witted and outspoken writer. He countedBob Dylan among his favorite musicians, so a Dylan song might be appropriate. We like “Mozambique” by Dylan and Jacques Levy.

Have suggestions? Add your song selections in the comments, and tell us why they go with the news of the day. We’ll add some of your comments to this post.
