Down Rodeo
(1996)
Album: Evil Empire
Rodeo Drive è la strada dello shopping di Beverly Hills,
Album: Evil Empire
Rodeo Drive è la strada dello shopping di Beverly Hills,
“Down Rodeo” was a promotional single by American rock band Rage Against the Machine. The song was intended as the third single from their Evil Empire album, although a domestic single was never released.
The song addresses social inequality between the rich and poor of America, and the simmering class warfare that existed in the band’s home city of Los Angeles following the 1992 Los Angeles Riots. “Down Rodeo” was written just three years after six days of riots were sparked by police violence against minorities in the city. The full lyric must be put into context of the time period and the beating of Rodney King to be understood: “So now I’m rollin' down Rodeo with a shotgun, These people ain’t seen a brown skin man, Since their grandparents bought one”
Genius

L’antisemitismo é manifestazione di, pregiudizio, rancore o di odio verso gli ebrei, espresso anche attraverso teorie cospirative e attribuzione di colpe senza fondamento. Purtroppo di recente l’epiteto antisemita viene usato troppo e a sproposito per respingere qualunque rilievo critico sulla politica dello stato israeliano, anche se lieve e supportato da evidenze indiscutibili.

Album / Albumi: Firestorm - Songs of the Third World War
The song is a small piece of science fiction masquerading as a traditional song about what initially sounds like a pagan festival. Imagining a kind of peasantry that's survived the nuclear holocaust, the song is a "carol" for a holiday in which all of the corpses and dead crops from radiation sickness are piled in a ceremonial mound to "keep the devil down."
By the end of the song, it is revealed that the "devil" is the word for the powerful people who've retreated to underground bunkers, and that by heaping the dead on top of the doors to the bunkers, they'll be kept in "hell."

Oh Dolours
2024
"Oh Dolours" is an ode to Dolours Price, a radical feminist and volunteer in the Irish Republican Army. It's an exploration of the sacrifices people make in the name of liberation, and what kinds of compromises are actually worth the cost — particularly for women, who face sexist double standards even in militant resistance. We recruited the singers from Indoor Friends to join us in the third verse, to make sure that women's voices were actually heard.
Ní saoirse go saoirse na mBan.
(There is no freedom until the freedom of women)

Il titolo della canzone, come ha spiegato uno dei suoi co-autori, il giornalista culturale Sama’an Ashrawi, “Maktub”—scritto in arabo come مكتوب— è "un tipo di destino per il quale devi lavorare, un cammino attraverso il cosmo con un lieto fine solo se rimani sulla giusta via."
Trovo che sia una canzone bellissima che giustamente è stata accostata a capolavori come Get Up, Stand Up o Move On Up di Curtis Mayfield.

Album: All Quiet On The Eastern Esplanade
The people who travel here and risk life and limb to come to England and try and make a life for themselves is something we spend quite a lot of time talking about. A lot of these people are trained doctors, they speak four or five languages. It’s not that I’m pro-illegal immigration, I’ve just got this thing against borders. It’s very easy to create fear and anger and hostility about people.
Pete Doherty

Le persone che viaggiano fino a qui e rischiano la vita per venire in Inghilterra e cercare di costruirsi una vita sono un argomento di cui parliamo spesso. Molti di queste persone sono medici qualificati, parlano quattro o cinque lingue.
Non è che io sia a favore dell'immigrazione illegale, semplicemente ho qualcosa contro i confini. È molto facile creare paura, rabbia e ostilità nei confronti delle persone senza ragione.

Lettera del compagno Lazlo al colonnello Valerio
Anonimo Toscano del XXI Secolo, 28-4-2024 23:10
“La cosa veramente divertente è che c’è stato un tempo in cui i fascisti erano più autentici, più spavaldi, erano leoni, anche se solo per un giorno. Rivendicavano la loro identità senza paura di essere accusati di essere traditori e assassini della patria. Oggi, invece, hanno paura di definirsi, di rivendicare la loro fede”, scrive l’attore, che è anche direttore artistico del concertone del Primo Maggio di Taranto, nel post. E poi, si legge ancora: “Tradiscono la loro identità giurando sulla Costituzione antifascista e poi per stare seduti sulla poltrona diventano campioni della super Cazzola, cintura nera di arrampicata sugli specchi”. Infine: “Lo dico sinceramente: non ci sono più i fascisti di una volta. Solo pecore. Ecco cosa sono i fascisti di ieri che sono diventati i governanti di oggi. Meglio una vita da pecora che un giorno da leoni. Viva la Resistenza”. - Michele Riondino, 28 aprile 2024.

(2024)
The song’s message is direct and harsh, as highlighted by its title, “War Isn’t Murder.” However, it’s full of lyrical wordplay of the kind that someone who has been doing this a while usually comes up with. The whole idea of the song is to needle at the semantics that people use to discuss and paper over the nature of combat.

The Haikopalypse
Haikus are meant to be small transient moments in time. Funny how these moments can combine to produce something major.
The following is a collection of 9 haikus meant to be read as one long piece.

You Can Choose Your Dream, but They Will Choose Your Nightmare
This poetic form is called a "villainelle"; probably one of the most famous examples is Dylan Thomas' "Do Not Go Gentle Into That Good Night".

The Beautiful Leaders WIthout Mercy
We are truly living in historic times. Events since 2016 (Brexit, Trump, COVID19 policies, Ukraine war, Israeli genocide in Gaza) have completely exposed the hypocrisy of the West.

The Chirality of Evil
I was looking for a word that rhymed with "Banality", and I thought "Chirality" worked well. An example of chirality is your two hands: they are mirror images of each other, but they can't be superimposed upon each other exactly.

Nota. Si tratta della traduzione inglese fornita da Paolo Rizzi, ma ridisposta in modo da corrispondere al testo originale. Come specificato da Paolo Rizzi, si tratta di una "traduzione automatica"; auspichiamo ovviamente che Juha Rämö voglia prima o poi farne una traduzione inglese a regola d'arte. Si segnala che della canzone esiste una traduzione inglese poetica su Lyricstranslate, ma il traduttore la ha messa sotto copyright. [RV]
Note. This is the English translation provided by Paolo Rizzi, but rearranged to match to the original text. As specified by Paolo Rizzi, this is an "automatic translation"; as a matter of fact, we hope that Juha Rämö will sooner or later make a professional English translation. It should be noted that there is a poetic English translation of the song on Lyricstranslate, but the translator has put it under copyright. [RV]

The Story of O.J.
[2017]
Lyrics and music / Testo e musica / Paroles et musique / Sanat ja sävel: Shawn Corey Carter (Jay-Z)
Album: 4:44
In the summer of 2017, Jay-Z dropped his thirteenth studio album 4:44 to near-rapturous fan reception and critical praise. The project was Jay’s most vulnerable and intimate to date, with the title track famously confirming allegations of infidelity mentioned on his wife Beyoncé’s 2016 opus Lemonade. However, LP standout track “The Story Of O.J.” was less personal and more societal, as the Jigga Man addressed racism and stereotypes within the black community with his signature incisiveness.
“The Story Of O.J.” features lyrics referencing infamous figure O.J. Simpson and his alleged belief that his wealth and influence transcended his race. “I’m not black, I’m O.J.” is a line rumored to have been uttered by Simpson in an interview, and it was quoted in the Emmy-winning... (continuer)

This song is usually sung by the chained gangs of slaves who are on their way, being driven from Maryland, Virginia, and Kentucky, to the more southern states for sale. The last line of each verse is the chorus, and gives a most impressive effect when sung—as it often is— by 60 or 150 voices echoing the plaintive grief of their hearts. This last line is intended as an appeal to all who have it in their power to aid in bringing about the jubilee of emancipation. -J. W. C. Pennington, D.D. Despite Dr. Pennington's contemporary affidavit that this is a Negro song, most observers will agree that its white origin is transparent; but it is worth including, if only for Dr. Pennington's intriguing phrase, "sung ... by 60 or 150 voices."
O! When shall we poor souls be free?

Tangle Eye Blues - Tangle Eye

Lomax wrote:” Sung by the cross-eyed prisoner whose mates had named him Tangle-Eye. Every good singer in the Pen has his own field holler with which he amuses himself in reflective moments. Often those tunes are kin to the blues, often they are composed of free yodeling tunes which seem to have African roots. The wild free melodies permit the singers literally to think and free associate out loud. The holler is, for me, the most expressive style in all our folklore. Tangle-Eye here tells his own story.”
Genius
“Tangle Eye Blues” is Tangle Eye’s personal story of incarceration, religion, and repentance. Based on his singing style, we can infer that this may have once been a gospel song that was popular amongst African American churches... (continuer)
