Something To Believe In
[1990]
Album: Flesh & Blood
"Something to Believe In" was a power ballad, it's the 2nd single from their 1990 album "Flesh & Blood". "Something to Believe In" was also released on the Best of Ballads & Blues album in 2003, with alternate lyrics (part 2).
This song was dedicated to James Kimo Maano, a security guard and best friend of Bret Michaels who had died some time earlier.
The cover art for the single depicts a tattoo on Bret Michaels's arm of a cross with the words "Something to Believe In". Unfortunately, the tattoo artist, according to Michaels, had been drinking and spelled "believe" incorrectly putting the "e" before the "i". It was attempted to be corrected by adding a rose to the cross that covered the misspelling, but Michaels was never satisfied with the results. In the first season of the reality show Rock of Love, Michaels goes to a tattoo shop where the tattoo artist properly touches up the tattoo.

Scabs
[1991]
Lyrics & Music by Anne Feeney
Album: Union Maid [2007]
Here's a jug band/swing ode to 'the lowest life form found in nature's lab' - strikebreakers or Scabs!
"I wrote this song for Solidarity Day '91... I was inspired by a New York Daily News striking reporter. In a curious turn of events he ended up inside the building at 3 AM during the height of the strike. He talked about what it was like to see pictures of someone else's kids on the desk he worked at for 22 years. He said it was like "Invasion of the Body Snatchers" – that only pod people could come in and do what these scabs were doing".

Coal Owner and Pitman's Wife
[1844]
Lyrics by William Hornsby (a collier of Shotton Moor, during the "Great Strike")
Music: The tune belongs to the great family of "Henry Martin" and a score of ballads with 'Derrydown' refrain
Album: The Iron Muse - A Panorama of Industrial Folk Music
Another propaganda ballad, written by William Hornsby and published as a broadside during the 1844 strike, this time extolling the heroic and steadfast virtues of the women in the coalfield. Like many songs of the time it used an existing popular folk tune.

Stella Clandestina
Da Flel 2010
"Sì, in fondo "Stella clandestina" nasce quando iniziano a uscire queste leggi "razziali", queste leggi per cui, da un giorno all'altro ti trovi clandestino. E se ti trovi clandestino e hai 20 anni, 30 anni è un problema, ma se ti trovi clandestino che ancora sei un bambino di due anni? E' una tragedia! E' una visione di questi due bambini che oggi sono ancora da considerarsi bambini, ma da domani saranno clandestini, con tutto quello che ne consegue. Qualcuno ha tradito il suo Vangelo per poter far questo. E' un problema di civiltà."

Il testamento del parroco Meslier
Notre bon Meslier
Pour en revenir à notre bon Meslier, curé de son état, il est proprement indigne de lui imputer la méconnaissance du christianisme, fût-il des origines. Bien au contraire, c'est de le bien connaître qu'il en eut la dégoûtation. Il suffit de lire les écrits de Jean Meslier pour s'en rendre compte de manière tout-à-fait objective. Par ailleurs, il ne pouvait ignorer cela ayant subi le « séminaire » de Châlons, été ordonné prêtre et nommé curé le 7 janvier 1689 curé d'Étrépigny et de But dans les Ardennes .
Cela dit, il voyait clair dans le jeu des illusions chrétiennes et plus spécifiquement, catholiques, apostoliques et romaines. Il disait, par exemple : « …vous adorez effectivement des faibles petites images de pâte et de farine, et vous honorez les images de bois et de plâtre, et les images d’Or et d’Argent.

Ballad Of The Triangle Fire
[1968]
Novantanove anni fa, il 25 marzo 1911, 146 operaie della fabbrica di abbigliamento Triangle Shirtwaist Factory di New York City morirono nel corso di uno spaventoso incendio sviluppatori nello stabilimento. Fu la peggiore tragedia su di un luogo di lavoro che si sia mai verificata negli USA prima dell’attentato dell’11 settembre 2001. Le vittime, quasi tutte donne immigrate sfruttate e sottopagate, morirono orrendamente, carbonizzate oppure sfracellate al suolo dopo essersi lanciate dalle finestre dell’alto edificio. Le proporzioni della tragedia furono tali perché il padrone del complesso aveva fatto chiudere tutti gli accessi alle scale antincendio per impedire alle operaie di uscire per fumarsi una sigaretta. Sicchè molte fumavano all’interno dello stabilimento, pieno di tessuti e materiali altamente infiammabili, ed una cicca o un fiammifero rimasto acceso furono probabilmente... (continuer)

All Around The Jail House
[1929]
Tune: “All Around the Water Tank, Waiting for a Train.”
Una delle canzoni scritte dall’operaia e sindacalista Ella Mae Wiggins poco prima di venire assassinata dai vigilantes della compagnia manifatturiera Loray Mill di Gastonia, Nord Carolina, al termine del lungo e durissimo sciopero dei tessili nella primavera del 1929.
Per un’introduzione più approfondita si veda The Mill Mother's Lament.
Per un’accurata ricostruzione del “Loray Mill Strike” si veda quanto scritto da Vera Buch Weisbord, una delle protagoniste dello sciopero, nel suo articolo Gastonia, 1929. Strike at the Loray Mill – da cui traggo anche il testo della canzone - pubblicato nel 1974 sulla rivista Southern Exposure.

Through the barricades
Canzone ispirata dal conflitto nell'Ulster.
Da brividi.
La canzone fu scritta da Gary Kemp, polistrumentista e autore di gran parte delle canzoni degli Spandau Ballet.
Il brano non è solo genericamente riferito ai Troubles in Ulster ma fu composto in seguito alla morte di Thomas "Kidso" Reilly, un collaboratore della band, ucciso a Belfast il 9 agosto 1983 da una pallottola inglese.
"We had a guy called 'Kidso' (Thomas Reilly), who worked for us on merchandise during the True tour. He went back to Belfast after the tour and was killed. Kidso's brother, Jim, who played drums for Stiff Little Fingers, subsequently took me along to see his grave and the song was inspired by walking down the Falls Road. I got to experience some of the emotion of that first-hand and it just stuck with me. I didn't expect it to come out in the shape of a Romeo and Juliet sort of song, but it did."
(Gary Kemp, in un'intervista al Belfast Telegraph)

Strofe antimilitariste
Chanson italienne – Strofe Antimilitariste – Franco Nebbia (1927-1984)
« Le maître Nebbia a confirmé et nous a déclaré explicitement que toutes ses sympathies vont à l'anarchisme et que ces sympathies sont démontrées par les chansons que l'on chante dans son cabaret ». Au « Nebbia Club » on entend de vieux chants anarchistes, des textes de dénonciation sociale et des chansons antimilitaristes.
J'en étais sûr, même si je ne l'avais jamais su avec certitude. J'en étais certain car quelqu'un qui écrit une chose comme le Vademecum Tango ne pouvait qu'être anarchiste dans l'âme, créant avec le latin sur un rythme dansant un irrésistible effet de comique profanateur.
Romain d'origine marchigiane, pianiste de valeur, artiste polyédrique (à envergure variable) qui savait écrire des textes surréalistes au plus haut degré, il frappe par sa ressemblance (y compris physique) avec Boby Lapointe.

Supper's Ready
La mia vita è piena di musica, la musica è la mia vita. Tutti i momenti più significativi della mia esistenza (per quanto giovane possa essere!) sono accompagnati dalla musica dei Genesis. Ne sono fiera perchè le loro canzoni fanno parte di me, sono parte della mia vita, e vi giuro che nessun film ha mai avuto una colonna sonora migliore di quella che ho io mentre giorno per giorno vivo la mia vita, vivo le mie emozioni, le mie paure, le mie debolezze con loro e con le loro magnifiche canzoni... Un ringraziamento speciale va a tutti voi, che come me, sapete ascoltare ed amare la buona musica. Eleonora

Dansante del Desterrado
[1976]
Letras: Jorge Enrique Adoum
Musica: Patricio Montilla
Album “Ecuador: El Grito de Libertad”, Paredon Records
Jorge Enrique Adoum, scomparso di recente, è stato un importante poeta e scrittore ecuadoregno. Fu sempre molto compromesso con i temi sociali, tant’è che negli anni della dittatura militare e fino al 1987 visse esule in Francia. A Jorge Enrique Adoum si devono anche molte delle traduzioni in spagnolo delle poesie di T.S. Elliot, Langston Hughes, Jacques Prévert, Yannis Ritsos, Vinícius de Moraes, Nazım Hikmet, Fernando Pessoa, Joseph Brodsky e Seamus Heaney.
La terra è così intrisa di sangue che l’indio che cade sa quanta terra gli tocca alla fine – giusto quella per essere sepolto – perché riconosce in bocca il sapore di tutti gli altri compagni caduti prima di lui…

Heartbeat
[2004]
Lyrics & Music by David Elon Preston
"Every word I heard the Beach Boys sing slipped away with Martin Luther King." I had the tune in my head for a long time, then after watching the movie, "Pleasantville", the seeds were planted for the first line: "I remember life in black and white.."

Only A Hobo
[1963]
Canzone registrata per “The Times They Are A-Changin'” ma poi non inclusa nell’album.
Pubblicata nel 1991 in “The Bootleg Series Volumes 1–3 (Rare & Unreleased) 1961–1991”
Se questa me la cassate, pazienza… Però è una canzone contro l’esclusione, come ce ne sono tante sulle CCG…

Surrender
[2006]
Lyrics & Music by David Elon Preston
Dedicated to the 13 coal miners who lost their lives at the Sago Mine, Tallmansville, West Virginia.
"The seed for this song came in early January in the aftermath of the Sago Coal Mine disaster in Tallmansville, West Virginia. I had read where some of the miners had written notes as they lay trapped two miles deep inside the mine. One note read, “Tell all I see them on the other side. It wasn’t bad. I just went to sleep.” A melody line began running through my head shortly after, and by mid-February I just had to try to get something down on paper. I tried to record the song with my own back up harmonies but it just didn't sound right.
I asked Anne Cozean and Marty Ross Vining from SongRamp to add their beautiful voices to the mix. They graciously agreed and I am eternally grateful.
This song is dedicated to the families of the miners that lost their lives in Tallmansville and everywhere".
