Sheryl Crow's "Everyday is a winding road" included a reference to
"intellectualism" without referring to anti-intellectualism.  The
reference was not completely positive. Since I know you have trouble
getting through long posts , here are the opening lines:

>I used to ride with a vending machine repair man.
>He says he's been down this road more than twice.
>He was high on intellectualism.
>I've never been there but the brochure looks nice.

The entire lyric can be found at:

Or a ton of places

Yeah, I like Sheryl Crow.    I enjoy her music and often find her a
clever and creative  lyricist. Anyone who hates her or finds her too
bland : you are not going to change my mind.
