Bridge the Divide Part 5

This is the fifth in a five-part “Bridge the Divide” series that showcases efforts by artists to find common ground.

The Detroit-based alternative rock band Rhythm Corps reached its highest point on the music charts with “Common Ground.” In 1988, the song spent 17 weeks on the Mainstream Rock list and cracked the top 10.

The song begins:

Can we meet on common ground

Are our views so far apart

There's no room to be found

Can we speak without the sound

Of a world gone quite insane

Can we start settling down

I'll not play the scene where the

Threats start flying

You'll not have to scream

'cause we're not that stupid

Can we meet on common ground
