Album: Childish Things

From "Chiildish Thing"

2004 turned him into a political songwriter. His latest album, Childish Things, has a couple of great ones. "Can't Make It Here Anymore" is a general broadside against our cultural decay and rich conservatives, but the last verse of "Holiday" is more specifically about the war. Not so much about the war as about the soldiers, though. He talks about a forty-odd year old Iowa Guardsman sitting in O'Hare (presumably on Thanksgiving), being sent back to Iraq. He remembers being in O'Hare in 1968, watching soldiers coming back from Vietnam...

(Check Out The American War)

Di questa canzone contro la guerra è assolutamente fondamentale vedere il divertentissimo video del regista KP Sasi. Il testo è in inglese con un coinvolgente ritornello in tamil. La musica è ripresa da una canzone dello Sri Lanka, Surangini. La canzone è cantata da B Jayashree mentre la ballerina è Malavika Tara Mohanan, che impersona lo spirito indomabile della satira e della resistenza.

From visualsearch.org:

The music video will be released and screened in a program being organized by BAN (Bangaloreans Against Nuclearization) on the occasion of Hiroshima Day. The programme begins at 4 pm on August 6th at St Joseph's College, 36, Shanthinagar, Bangalore - 560 027.

Directed by KP Sasi and based on Kamaan Singh Dhami's anti-war song “American War Paar Da! (Check Out the American War!)”, the 4-minute music video is a satirical but severe indictment of America’s... (continua)

HISTORY

We wrote the words to this song in late July 2003 in response to the ongoing Iraqi war. We recorded over August and went live on the net in September 2003. The song was reworked in March 2004 adding lead guitar and sax. We chose to use the tune and musical style of the traditional "When Johnny Comes Marching Home" for several reasons.

This song is instantly recognisable to many people throughout the world and has a long history of reflecting the suffering of those involved in war - mostly "Johnny" of course - but also the others who suffer from war: the innocents, non-combatants, medical personnel and families.

Patrick Gilmore said he derived his Civil War song from an Irish folk song "Johnny I Hardly Knew Ye". Gilmore was born in Ireland, emigrating to America just before the Potato Famines.

Gilmore's song was written "To the Army and Navy of the Union", it was... (continua)

Από Το μεγάλο μας τσίρκο
Testo di Iakovos Kambanellis
Musica di Stavros Xarchakos
Interpreti: Nikos Xylouris e Jenny Karezi
Dal musical "Il nostro grande circo"

Στο «Μεγάλο μας τσίρκο» ο συγγραφέας Ιάκωβος Καμπανέλλης κατέγραψε όλη την ιστορία της νεότερης Ελλάδας, ενώ ο Σταύρος Ξαρχάκος προσέθεσε τη μελοποίηση και ο Νίκος Ξυλούρης συνέβαλε με τη μοναδική ερμηνεία του.
Το έργο ανέβηκε το 1973 από το θίασο της Τζένης Καρέζη και του Κώστα Καζάκου στο θέατρο «Αθήναιον». Εκτός από τον Νίκο Ξυλούρη, τα τραγούδια του Σταύρου Ξαρχάκου απέδιδαν και τα μέλη του θιάσου.
Πρωταγωνιστικούς ρόλους είχαν οι Διονύσης Παπαγιαννόπουλος, Στέλιος Κωνσταντόπουλος, Νίκος Κούρος, Τίμος Περλέγκας.
Μαζί τους τραγουδούσαν και όλοι οι θεατές: «Φίλοι και αδέρφια» (Ν. Ξυλούρης, Τ. Περλέγκας),... (continua)

da "Sonic Jihad"
Testo ripreso da questo sito

The song that really made heads turn was by Bay Area artist Paris who came out of retirement and released a 6 minute missive called What Would You Do? that went into great detail about The Caryle Group, Bush’s relationship to the Bin Laden family and the hawkish action plans of the Neo-cons serving in Bushs cabinet. Paris gave the song away for free and then followed it up with an entire antiwar album called Sonic Jihad which went on to sell over 200 thousand units. Another great anti-war cut off that album was ‘Sheep to the Slaughter‘.

[1984]
Lyrics and music by Steven van Zandt
Testo e musica di Steven van Zandt
da/from "Voices of America"

Il Checkpoint Charlie era un valico di frontiera berlinese. In funzione dal 1945 al 1990, collegava il settore di occupazione sovietico (quartiere di Mitte) con quello americano (quartiere di Kreuzberg).

Era situato sulla Friedrichstraße, all'altezza dell'incrocio con Zimmerstraße. Era utilizzato solo da militari, diplomatici e cittadini stranieri in visita a Berlino.

Dopo la riunificazione il punto di controllo venne abbattuto e, tranne il museo del Muro, non rimaneva alcuna traccia della sua esistenza. Il 13 agosto 2000 ne venne inaugurata una ricostruzione fedele, divenuta in breve tempo di grande richiamo turistico.

Presso il Checkpoint Charlie ebbero alcune fughe molto spettacolari dalla DDR. Nei pressi, il 17 agosto 1962, fu colpito e lasciato morire dissanguato il diciottenne... (continua)

(Tom Morello)

Un testo molto simile a Manhattan Kaboul di Renaud, quella "Manhattan Baghdad" che Renaud sperava di non dover scrivere. Purtroppo l'ha dovua scrivere Tom Morello.

La canzone è stata scelta da Michael Moore per la colonna sonora del documentario "Fahrenheit 9/11".
