Marc BlitzOCU LAW Professor Marc Blitz recently completed a guest-blogging stint at Prawfsblog, a popular blog "about a variety of topics related to law and life." For one of his final entries, Blitz examined the use of philosophical and legal motifs in rock lyrics. Writes Blitz,

Law review authors occasionally use rock song lyrics to make a point. [Former OCU LAW Professor] Alex Long has written insightfully about their tendency to do so. (And I am guilty of it in this recent article on First Amendment law and virtual reality). 

This led me to wonder what happens when things work in reverse: Which law review articles are cited the most in rock music? Are the same law reviews that are highest in court and scholarship citation counts - according to the Washington and Lee rankings - also the most frequently cited in angst-ridden rock lyrics?

Blitz’s time as a guest blogger for Prawfsblog has ended for the time being, though he said he plans to continue blogging at other sites in the future.
