The song is roughly the same in the Yiddish and English. Note that думать/dumai(t) is Russian, and is the word “to think”. I will provide the direct translation of the Yiddish pieces however as some differences remain

[1969]
Album: Green River - 1969
John Fogerty said he wrote this song about his (now) ex-wife about 2 years after they had a child together. Quote from John Fogerty:
“Inspired by my young wife at the time. It was early ‘69, and I was 23 years old. We had our first child, who, at the time, was two and a half. I was sitting in my room, writing the songs, pushing my career. Without the songs, the career ends. You might be a great band, but without the songs, you’re not going anywhere. At one point, my wife and I had a mild misunderstanding, I wouldn’t even call it a fight, She was miffed, taking our young son out, wishing I would be more involved. But there I was, the musician manic and possessed the only guy holding things up. Without me, it all collapses, so I’m feeling quite put upon.

I Want to Live
[1969]
Lyrics by Boris Bergman
Music by Jean-Paul-Égide Martini (“Plaisir d'amour”, [1784]), rearranged by Vangelis / Βαγγέλης
Aphrodite's Child (Παιδί της Αφροδίτης) was formed in 1967 by Vangelis (keyboards), together with his musician friends Demis Roussos (bass guitar and vocals), Lucas Sideras (drums and vocals) and Anargyros "Silver" Koulouris (guitar).
But when the group went to Paris in 1968 Koulouris had to stay in Greece (for military service).
The first single was released in 1968: "Plastics nevermore" / "The other people" (as a demo for Philips).
The single "Rain and Tears", released in May 1968, was a huge success all over the world.
The first album: "End of the World" was released in 1968.
In 1969 Aphrodite's Child released their second album "It's Five o'Clock".
In 1970 Vangelis started working on the album "666", when Silver Koulouris joined Aphrodite's Child.

L'autore della versione è sconosciuto. La si ritrova nel Canzoniere delle Brigate Internazionali della Guerra di Spagna, accanto a Partisanen von Amur (qui chiamata semplicemente Partisanenlied) e a Les Partisans, la versione francese. Il fatto che le versioni nelle tre lingue siano presentate assieme nel canzoniere, fa vedere quanto venissero intese come un unico canto partigiano. [RV]

Smith penned this prayer-like rocker for the people of Japan in the wake of the earthquake and tsunami that devastated their country in 2011.
The New Yorker uses Japan's highest and most symbolic mountain to help convey her feelings about the tragedy.
"Knowing that my country dropped two atom bombs on Japan and killed a couple of hundred thousand people has always been something I've felt a certain amount of pain about. I imagined the people having to deal with this new situation with the threat of a nuclear disaster. I didn't want to write something directly about that but I wanted to show the Japanese people solidarity and love."

Better Than We Found It
(2020)
I wanted to write something to address exactly how I feel right now, and this came together pretty quickly. It’s a protest song. It’s the most American thing to protest, and protest songs have been so embedded in American culture: Bob Dylan, Nina Simone. I think the world right now is sort of in a perpetual mourning period, and I wanted to have a song that had weight but also had hope.

Album: To the Teeth
I wrote this song after Dr. Barnett Slepian was shot and killed by an anti-choice zealot in my hometown of Buffalo and then, soon there-after, the Southside Abortion Clinic was bombed in Birmingham, Alabama.
The year was 1998. i have been digitizing my old master tapes and this is an out-take (not the version that appeared on the album) so Julie Wolf’s piano is not there, which was done as an overdub. this is just me, Jason Mercer on bass and Daren Hahn on drums.

I owe such a huge debt to the incredibly brave women and men who have risked their lives on a daily basis to provide abortion services. I owe you my life. the life i have chosen and... (Continues)

Water Boy
Testo dal video della CBS 1959
Water,boy where you hidin'?
An important liberation song in the history of slavery and the civil rights movement is Water, Boy. It is a slave work song, a somber reminder of the conditions black people were forced to live through. Water is as valuable as saffron on the field of a plantation, but I assume it's absence was as normalized as the sun rising and setting everyday. I assume the enslaved weren't given enough water (or anything, if anything) to keep them in good health as forced laborers. I'm sure the white overseers and slaveowners made sure to keep their thirst quenched, though. It's been said, they demanded water and would get the attention of the waterboy by singing Water, boy where you hidin?
Today when this song is performed it is titled “Waterboy” instead of “Water, Boy” and I equate this to trying to soften up the history, but let’s not forget... (Continues)

A Quiet Life
A QUIET LIFE, an original song from Richard Jenkins. The inspiration for this song was a poem call A Quiet Life, written by Alexander Pope (1688-1744). In fact I've only used seven words from the original which was a bucolic ode to living, working and being buried in your own soil. When I wrote it I was thinking of the Balkans, Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, Libya.
