The End is Here

Mellencamp said in 2002, "I plan to have every person sing from their generation. This is what I'm thinking right now, but it may not work out this way. When the 18-year-old sings, he'll be rapping at you. When the people in their 70s are singing, they'll be singing in the style of Broadway or the style of Frank Sinatra or country. I intend to cover any type of music that Americans have invented." Mellencamp did not wind up following this format, as all the songs in the final production are performed in a folk/rock style.
