In Memoriam: Margaret Thatcher
English
Italiano
Back in 2005, anarchist collective Chumbawumba pre-sold an EP called In Memoriam: Margaret Thatcher which they would keep under wraps until the prime minister passed away. Since Thatcher did pass earlier this week, the band has delivered the EP and is also streaming the release online. Along with that, the band delivered a eulogy:
Let's make it clear: This is a cause to celebrate, to party, to stamp the dirt down. Tomorrow we can carry on shouting and writing and working and singing and striking against the successive governments that have so clearly followed Thatcher's Slash & Burn policies, none more so than the present lot. But for now, we can have a drink and a dance and propose a toast to the demise of someone who blighted so many people's lives for so long. If we must show a little reverence and decorum at this time,... (Continues)

Dal disco “Asleep In The Pines”
Testo trovato su di una pagina riferibile all’autore.
Dovete sapere che il contributo di Storia dell'orso Bruno non è casuale. Per intanto il nickname di cui ultimamente mi onoro - che mi fu in qualche modo assegnato dal ricco (???) e forte (!!!) Reichart Venturi – trova anch’esso radice nella “forza”, e in quella davvero esplosiva dell’ “orso”. In secondo luogo, le valli alpine di cui sono originario sono dominate dal massiccio dell’Orsiera, costellato da toponimi come “Pian dell’Orso” e “Rocca Tana dell'Orso”… Beh, queste sono le uniche memorie dell’antica presenza del plantigrado dalle mie parti, estintosi chissà quando, forse non 10.000 anni fa come l’Ursus Speleus, ma sicuramente un sacco di tempo fa…
Chi invece è tornato sull’Orsiera dopo essersi estinto (ma bisognerebbe meglio dire “dopo essere stato completamente sterminato”)... (Continues)

Smash Clause 28!
![Smash Clause 28!](img/upl/alton00.gif)
1988
"Smash Clause 28! Fight the Alton Bill!" is a 1988 single from anarcho-punk band Chumbawamba on their Agit Prop Records label. It is a benefit record for the London Lesbian and Gay Switchboard and the Women's Reproductive Rights Campaign.
Clause 28, also known as Section 28, was a controversial bill proposed in the United Kingdom to curtail the promotion or acceptance of homosexuality. The Alton Bill was a set of laws designed to make abortion far more restrictive in the United Kingdom. As the song titles suggest, the members of Chumbawamba felt strongly that these movements were not in the best interest of the public.
On the record itself the band shout "Clause 29!", which was accurate at the time of recording. Soon after, the bill was changed to Clause 28.

Passion Killers being then three members of Chumbawamba rush-releasing an anti-Gulf War single. There are four anti-war cover versions: Feel Like I'm Fixin' To Die, Universal Soldier, Shipbuilding and Reuters
Here are the lyrics to two Passion Killers songs. The first one, Feel Like I'm Fixin' To Die, is a very upbeat, party-type song, with lots of kazoo, whistles, whooping, yee-hawing, laughing, etc., in the background. The second one, Universal Soldier, has a more serious tone.

[2007]
Lyrics by Jean Souter Bambrick
Music by Iain Scally
Hearts and Minds is a protest of a different sort. It's the observations of an ordinary bloke who happens to be a soldier. He's doing his job and duty in the unhealthy atmosphere of Iraq but can still look around him and see parallels between the folks getting on with their daily life despite the same unhealthy atmosphere and his own parents eking out an existence on a croft in Buchan.'
"A "single", featuring the words of a poem written by a friend, Jean Bambrick, a former journalist who tells the story of a Buchan loon writing home to his parents with his observations of the day to day existence of Iraqi families who are caught up in the conflict but just want to get on with their lives as best they can".

It was recorded under the alias of '100 Suns' and features on the soundtrack of the 2007 documentary 'In Prison My Whole Life' which revolves around the life of Mumia Abu-Jamal.
News first hit of this unusual collaboration between Massive Attack and American hip-hop star, Snoop Dogg, back in May 2007. The genesis of the song was from both artists being musically apart of the documentary film, ‘In Prison My Whole Life’.
In Massive Attack’s case, they had been commissioned (under the guise of 100 Suns, a name they have been using to disassociate certain film/advertising projects and collaborations like this one away from the Massive Attack name/brand) to pen the instrumental score for the film, while Snoop Dogg had already produced a song named after the film.

A Margalida
![A Margalida](img/upl/Joan_Isaac_e_Margalida.jpg)
«"A MARGALIDA”, CANCIÓN DE AMOR POR HABER AMADO»
por Fernando Lucini
«De entre el amplio repertorio de canciones que ha compuesto e interpretado Joan Isaac, sin duda, una de las que más me impactó desde siempre –y que aún sigo escuchando y disfrutando con frecuencia– es la titulada “A Margalida”; canción dedicada a Margalida Bover Vadell –amante de Salvador Puig Antich–, que Joan grabó, por primera vez, en su disco “Viure”, publicado en 1977.
Recuerdo a la perfección el primer día que escuché “A Margalida”. Resultó una experiencia muy emocionante. Joan, con aquella hermosa canción, consiguió provocarme una contradictoria sensación de indignación y de ternura.
Indignación por el hecho al que hacía referencia: No habían pasado muchos años –fue en 1974– que Franco, y la “gentuza” que le rodeaba, habían condenado a Salvador Puig Antich a la pena muerte, y le habían asesinado. Cruel... (Continues)
