Testo e musica di Sebastian
Lyrics and music by Sebastian
Il testo è ripreso da protestsange.dk
Lyrics are reproduced from protestsange.dk
Da Berlin-muren faldt i de sidste måneder af 1989, blev verden vidne til en række gennemgribende omvæltninger for det Østeuropa som siden Anden Verdenskrig havde været en realitet. Den forjættede frihed og den nært forbundne drøm om ubegrænset adgang til materielle goder var noget østtyskerne og efterhånden også de fleste øvrige østeuropæere fik rig lejlighed til at realisere – sådan da.
På sit sidste regulære album, Miraklernes tid fra 1990, satiriserede Sebastian i sangen ‘Det nye Europa’ kraftigt over det nedladende-overbærende storkapitalistiske og småfascistiske Vesttyskland der skam nok skulle gøre det nu forhenværende Østtyskland til et både bedre, rigere og lykkeligere land på en måde dets indbyggere aldrig havde turde tro på, kun...

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.

Darfur: The Song Of Adam
Attenzione: questa è la traduzione inglese del testo originale.
Notice: This is the English translation of the original text.
Adam è un bambino del Darfur di 12 anni. I ricordi di un'infanzia segnata da guerre e fame racchiuse nelle parole e nella musica di questa canzone
Da quando il conflitto ha distrutto il suo villaggio si è rifugiato nel campo di Muhajariya. Nonostante la grande voglia di imparare ha frequentato la scuola solo sporadicamente a causa della guerra e dei continui spostamenti. Questa canzone è stata registrata da una volontaria di Medici Senza Frontiere durante un incontro di educazione alla salute: Adam chiese alla ragazza di poter cantare e, una volta finita la sua canzone, si è seduto con la testa tra le gambe incurante degli applausi.

LA CCG NUMERO 6000
E così eccoci giunti anche alla CCG n° 6000; ci abbiamo messo un po' più tempo del solito, stavolta, dato che la n° 5000 risale al gennaio scorso. Però queste ultime mille CCG sono state tra le più importanti mai inserite, oltre ad aver visto una progressiva trasformazione del nostro sito in spazio esclusivamente dedicato ai testi, alle traduzioni e ai commenti in vero spazio interattivo, con la possibilità di scaricare mp3 (tramite links) e video. Questo per quanto riguarda l'aspetto "tecnico" del sito; per l'altro aspetto, quello che più conta, forse l'unico commento da fare sarebbe quello espresso da Brett Dennen nella sua bella canzone: The Holidays Are Here (And We're Still At War). Perché in guerra ci siamo sempre tutti quanti. Allora, per questa 6000esima Canzone Contro la Guerra, abbiamo pensato di proporre una serie di vignette satiriche,... (continua)

Clarke & Flannery love to hear your thoughts on the song cycle. Email them to anthracite@rocketmail.com.
This is not a history lesson. We're not historians. We're songwriters. And anyway... how the hell is anybody going to explain the systematic state sponsored slaughter of close to a million people with a handful of songs? We're not.
Truth is, there is no explanation for the Rwandan genocide. What there is in abundance, however, is ignorance. If these songs make just one person dig a little deeper, then we've made our money back, so to speak. We've touched upon specific pieces of the horror, but don't even pretend to be able to understand it from the Rwandan point of view. We're observers from afar. Interested, heartbroken observers....but merely observers nonetheless. Please... (continua)

Clarke & Flannery love to hear your thoughts on the song cycle. Email them to anthracite@rocketmail.com.
This is not a history lesson. We're not historians. We're songwriters. And anyway... how the hell is anybody going to explain the systematic state sponsored slaughter of close to a million people with a handful of songs? We're not.
Truth is, there is no explanation for the Rwandan genocide. What there is in abundance, however, is ignorance. If these songs make just one person dig a little deeper, then we've made our money back, so to speak. We've touched upon specific pieces of the horror, but don't even pretend to be able to understand it from the Rwandan point of view. We're observers from afar. Interested, heartbroken observers....but merely observers nonetheless. Please... (continua)

Brother, Did You Weep?
Questa canzone ha un'intensità particolare, scorre come un torrente di notte.. la rabbia e la misura sono una sola e identica cosa... è la dimostrazione che la malinconia è alla radice un fatto politico, se quest'espressione ha ancora un senso...

Lili Marleen [Lied eines jungen Wachtpostens]
Lili marleen viene anche citata apertamente(a dimostrazione del fascino simbolico senza tempo della canzone) nel testo di una canzone di francesco de gregori (alice guarda i gatti) ed è anche il titolo di un celebre singolo dei litfiba.
da "ALICE GUARDA I GATTI (F.DE GREGORI):
...e Lili marleen bella più che mai!
sorride non ti dice la sua età...
e tutto questo alice non lo sa...
da "ALICE GUARDA I GATTI (F.DE GREGORI):
...e Lili marleen bella più che mai!

Però il singolo dei Litfiba si chiamava Lulu e Marlene. E la canzone di De Gregori si chiama semplicemente "Alice"

Piccola storia ignobile
Mah, semplicemente io diffido da chi ha la verità in tasca e la vuole imporre a tutti, a ogni costo. E' certamente vero che la 194 può essere migliorata a beneficio delle donne, ma vedo i proclami e gli anatemi della Chiesa come un'ingerenza inaccettabile in quello che, per costituzione, dovrebbe essere uno stato laico (e in cui invece, giusto per fare un esempio, le scuole cattoliche vengono allegramente foraggiate anche con soldi miei). Lo stesso discorso lo si può fare per la vituperata ricerca sulle staminali. Il referendum boicottato dalle gerarchie cattoliche e dal santo centro destra (che si genuflette in pubblico e va a puttane in privato) ha tolto speranze concrete di guarigione a migliaia di persone malate. E io credo che considerare un embrione più importante di una persona umana vivente e sofferente sia da benpensanti in odor di santità, che però certe sofferenze non le hanno mai sperimentate.

Cara Elisa, sarà purtroppo un po' difficile che ti possiamo aiutare in questa ricerca.

visto che non lo ha ancora fatto nessuno, vorrei rispondere al post precedente ed in particolare cito: "w qualsiasi cosa faccia male", quindi anche w la guerra, la violenza? e poi "w la droga e il fumo", ma lo sai chi ci guadagna su l'oppio afghano o la coca colombiana? non certo i contadini che li coltivano, ma scommetto che non ci pensi quando ti droghi per "alienarti" dal mondo e sentirti bene, non pensi ha chi è stato sfruttato per la coltivazione e a chi ci ha guadagnato sopra. Pensi che dietro una partita di coca ci sia una coperativa del commercio equo? bè ti sbagli! e mi sa che hai anche sbagliato sito, per un post tanto stupido. Anarchia non vuol dire fregarsene del resto del mondo (rimando al film "Sacco e Vanzetti") Viva la vida.

Lyrics by Joanne McDonnell
Music by Joanne McDonnell/Sam Panetta
Più che una canzone contro la guerra penso che sia un invito a prendere coscienza sulla situazione in cui vivono le madri e i bambini del Darfur, persone come noi... con gli stessi diritti ad una vita migliore ma che invece si trovano a combattere contro la fame, la denutrizione, l'Aids, le violenze di ogni tipo e contro tutte le conseguenze che una guerra comporta...
Un invito anche a non voltare le spalle ad una popolazione che ha dei bisogni immediati, cibo, cure e medicine e a non pensare che il Darfur sia un posto tanto lontano da casa... visto che è "il mondo" la nostra "casa".
I versi che mi hanno colpito di più sono quelli dove si dice (più o meno e leggendo tra le righe...) che se un bambino morisse davanti ai tuoi occhi non andresti via... (continua)
