THE INTERNATIONALE - VERSIONE DEL PARTITO LABURISTA SCOZZESE [2017]
"A reworking of the Labour anthem the Internationale for all those Scottish Labour people who were acting on social media yesterday as apologists for the brutality of the Spanish state. Internationalists my arse." - Wee Ginger Dug, October 2, 2017
La versione sembra essere stata redatta a sostegno delle lotte indipendentiste catalane all'indomani del referendum del 1° ottobre 2017, stroncato e represso dallo stato spagnolo.

Carl Sagan's Cosmic Calendar and this Compact history of life by Deproducers certainly have very illustrious literary ancestors, from Lucretius' De rerum natura to the amazing Petite cosmogonie portative by Raymond Queneau (“A Pocket Cosmogony”, 1950). To the latter goes my special reference, a true universal cosmic calendar in verse, in which, on an admirable scale, the entire human history is compared to that of the Universe and is described with only two verses at the beginning of the sixth and last canto :
Le singe sans effort le singe devint homme
lequel un peu plus tard désagrégea the atom.
"The monkey, effortlessly, became the man,
who a little later disintegrated the atom."
Less than two seconds before the midnight of 31 December, in the calendar of Life: there we are all of us, in those two seconds. Two seconds of history in a whole year. [RV]

Note. The following translation by the Στίχοι user Andreas Cretensis is included in a note to another English translation by the user Μιλτος Μπ (26-11-2005), who totally misunderstood the meaning of the Greek verses. "Συγγνώμη η αγγλική μετάφραση δεν αποδίδει το νόημα. Η συντακτική της αγγλικής δεν τόσο ευλύγιστη όπως στα ελληνικά. Ιδιαίτερα στο πρώτο στίχο έχετε κάνει τα ονομαστικά αιτιατικά και αντίθετα."

"A true story that tells what happened on the war front on Christmas eve of 1914/1915 between Italians and Austrians. The scene takes place on Mount Col del Rosso, near Mount Grappa: the Italians went out on patrol and, when they found the enemy behind them, they resigned themselves to the tragedy. By a miracle, the Austrians decided to leave their weapons and exchange with the Italians the sign of PEACE."

The “Global Resistance Network” published a short singing tape of the Sahrawi artist Mariam Al-Hassan, recorded on August 06, 2015 in the Sahrawi refugee camps and titled Alwadae (“Farewell”)
The tape included touching words the skilled artist, who is in a difficult health situation, addresses to the Sahrawi people.
In this video, the Sahrawi artist recommends the Sahrawi people to withstand and preserve all its heritage, and expresses her great confidence that the rising generations keep on struggling and bringing the voice of the Sahrawi people beyond the borders.
For reference, the tape, which was recorded from inside her tent in the state of Smara, impressed many of the pioneers of social networks, who expressed a great emotion, wishing a speedy recovery to the Sahrawi artist.
The resistance network, which includes hundreds of people around the world who are defending peace and freedom, highlighted that Maryam El Hassan devoted her life to the struggle of the Sahrawi people's right to self-determination.

St. Pauli
The album that this song comes from is called "Mazel Tov" and is filled with references to Yiddish imaginary and klezmer music.
St. Pauli is a football team from the German town of Hamburg, known for the unmistakable political orientation of its fan club.
It seems that among the "certified" fans of St. Pauli there is also an administrator of this site... [INSCO]
As a "certified fan" of St. Pauli I must say that this song, in the German version, has essentially become the official anthem of the team; or it is perceived as such. [RV]

Album Everyday Life
The opener for the second part of the album, Sunset (غروب), starts with “Guns”, a track that criticizes American’s love for guns and how people have been led to believe that gun violence is fixed with arming everyone instead of regulating guns themselves. The track continues to project the theme of the album with a message of peace by highlighting the problem the United States has with the second amendment and the growing mass-shootings in the country.

L'apertura della seconda parte dell'album, intitolata Tramonto (غروب), è affidata a "Guns", un pezzo critico dell'amore statunitense per le armi e su come la gente sia stata portata a credere che la violenza da armi da fuoco possa essere risolta armando tutti invece che regolando il mercato delle armi.
