Dialogue Maïeutique

Par le grand Onos, dit Lucien l’âne, un taxidermiste. Comme tu peux le penser, nous les ânes, on n’aime pas trop penser à la taxidermie. On préfère nettement l’ignorer et garder l’esprit dégagé de tout souci de ce genre.

Je te comprends parfaitement, dit Marco Valdo M.I., et je t’avoue qu’on nous traiterait nous les humains par la taxidermie, on n’aimerait pas ça, tout comme ne l’apprécient pas les ânes et les autres animaux. Ça ne nous plairait pas même qu’on l’évoque, fût-ce dans une chanson.

Au fait, Marco Valdo M.I. mon ami, j’ai entendu dire que dans certaines... (Continues)

Four Hours

Four Hours
[2014]
Lyrics & music by Billy Liar (except the chorus, which owes more than a little to the dehumanising process of late twentieth century US Army training and a certain film by Stanley Kubrick).
Album: Made To Break / Four Hours

« But.. these are human beings, unarmed civilians, sir! » The last famous words before the massacre.

Hugh Thompson shortly before the My Lai Massacre. He had turned to sergeant David Mitchell, who replied that the only way to help them was to put them out of their misery…then to second lieutenant William Calley, 1st Platoon Company C commander ..

Thompson: What's going on here, lieutenant?

Calley: This is my business.

Thompson: What is this? Who are these people?

Calley: Just following orders.

Thompson: Orders? Whose orders?

Calley: Just following...

Thompson: But, these are human beings, unarmed civilians, sir.

Come to Mama

Come to Mama
(2016)
dall'album °Joanne°
Scritta da Father John Misty (ex batterista dei Fleet Floxes), Emile Haynie & Lady Gaga

Un vero e proprio inno soul-rock alla pace e all'amore universale (ma come c'era sfuggita??) dalla bravissima Lady Gaga. Sono solo io a trovare questa canzone vagamente springsteeniana? D'altra parte Stefani Germanotta, come Bruce, ha le radici nel New Jersey da una famiglia di immigrati italiani...

Da ascoltare la versione cantata dal vivo durante il Dive Bar Tour, una serie di concerti che Lady Gaga ha tenuto in piccoli locali e pub per promuovere l'album Joanne.

Perché dobbiamo dire agli altri come vivere? Le sole prigioni che esistono sono quelle in cui ci chiudiamo l'un l'altro.
Everybody's got to love each other

Il primo testo l'ho trovato su di un numero del 2006 della rivista Prove di drammaturgia ma, nell'ascoltare il brano, ho subito notato cospicue differenze, che ho trascritte in una seconda versione. Credo che sia quella seconda l'originale, molto più efficace e soprattutto politica. Purtroppo all'ascolto non ho ancora compreso alcuni passaggi...

مقاطعة [ Muqata’a ]

Muqata’a é il nome d’arte di un famoso rapper di Ramallah in Palestina. Il nome è anche un verbo che significa boicottare. Il rap si faceva portatore della protesta, incitava a partecipare al rinnovamento con passione, ardore .
Purtroppo le proteste e l’entusiasmo da soli non potevano mutare la situazione portata allo stallo attuale dalle forti disparità tra i protagonisti e dagli interessi internazionali sull’assetto del Medio Oriente, prevaricando i diritti dei popoli e la carta delle Nazioni Unite.

Origine della canzone

The song "Fear a' bhàta" usually given as "traditional" was composed in the late 18th Century by Jane Finlayson of Tong, Lewis for a young Uig fisherman, Donald MacRae. The part of this story which is rarely told is that they married each other sometime after she wrote the song. The song appears in The Scottish Gael by James Logan, first published 1876. [ Excerpt from gaelic songs ]

This well-known song was written by Jane Finlayson (1775-1840) of Tong about her suitor, fisherman Donald Macrae of Uig. She laments Donald's continuing absence and wonders, in the... (Continues)

“Είναι σημάδια των καιρών; Είναι ο άνθρωπος ένα έξυπνο τέρας εκπαιδευόμενο να διαπράττει νόμιμα εγκλήματα. Κοιτάζω στις σελίδες της ιστορίας και βλέπω ότι το κέρδος οδηγούσε αυτοκρατορίες στο να σφαγιάσουν τόπους. Χρόνια φωτιάς, διαμαχών και θλίψης και οι φερόμενοι ως ευεργέτες αρπάζανε χώρες, απο τους σταυροφόρους έως τους κονκισταδόρες όλοι τους ασεβείς κατακτητές που φερόντουσαν στους ντόπιους σαν να ηταν αυτοί πόρνες. Σήμερα, άκουω μωρά από το Λίβανο να κλαίνε, βλέπω ιμπεριαλιστικά μυαλά να ξεπερνάνε τα όρια. Έξυπνες βόμβες και χαμένες στιγμές, μασάνε άλλων χωρών τα πλούτη σαν τρωκτικά. Η ανθρωπότητα είναι σε ανοικτό πόλεμο με τη φύση, παρεμβαίνουμε χωρίς να έχουμε σεβασμό στη δομή της. Άνθρωποι! Κόβουνε τα δένδρα του Αμαζόνιου και η Μητέρα Γη ακόμα μετράει τις απώλειες της.

La musica e il testo di Brucia la terra

Nino Rota compose le musiche per il film Fortunella di Eduardo De Filippo nel 1958. Dopo parecchi anni, Francis Ford Coppola chiamò Rota a comporre la colonna sonora per Il padrino, parte prima nel 1972. I dirigenti della Paramount scartarono le musiche di Rota optando per un compositore americano. Dopo il fiasco dell’impresa, degna dei migliori balordi di Hollywood, fu incaricato di nuovo Nino Rota che rielaborò un tema di Fortunella, eseguito a ritmo lento. Divenne il tema principale de Il padrino, parte prima. Il suo successo è universalmente noto.

שחמט

שחמט
שחמט הוא שיר אנטי-מלחמתי עברי מאת חנוך לוין. השיר הולחן בידי אלכס כגן ונכלל בקברט הסאטירי "את ואני והמלחמה הבאה", שהוצג לראשונה באוגוסט 1968, כשנה לאחר מלחמת ששת הימים. בכל כתבי חנוך לוין נכלל השיר בקובץ "מה אכפת לציפור", שנדפס לראשונה ב-1987. השיר התפרסם בביצועה של חוה אלברשטיין, ולאחר מכן זכה לביצועים נוספים.

השיר מדבר לכאורה על משחק השחמט, שבו "חַיָּל שָׁחֹר מַכֶּה חַיָּל לָבָן" ו"חַיָּל לָבָן מַכֶּה חַיָּל שָׁחֹר" (שורות החוזרות בכל אחד משלושת בתיו הראשונים של השיר) אך למעשה מותח ביקורת על השליטים השולחים את החיילים לקרב תוך שהם אדישים לגורלם - בזמן הקרב "הַמֶּלֶךְ מְשַׂחֵק עִם הַמַּלְכָּה" (שורה זו מסיימת כל אחד משלושת בתיו הראשונים של השיר). הבית הרביעי והאחרון מציג את סופו הטרגי של הקרב:

לְאָן הָלַךְ יַלְדִּי, יַלְדִּי הַטּוֹב לְאָן?
נָפְלוּ חַיָּל שָׁחֹר, חַיָּל לָבָן.

Daniel Ellsberg era uno dei "geniacci del Pentagono" (i brillanti giovani reclutati da Robert McNamara, segretario della difesa dal 1961 al 1968). Divenuto oppositore della guerra del Vietnam, cominciò a fotocopiare un dossier di 7000 pagine coperto da segreto di Stato, che rivelava le strategie del governo americano in merito alla guerra in Vietnam.

Nel 1971 consegnò questo materiale al The New York Times sotto il nome di Pentagon Papers, dando vita a una controversia politica nazionale.

Album: I Used To Know Her

The idea of ‘Lord Is Coming,’ you hear people say, like, it’s Armageddon, it’s the end of the world. I really felt like there’s so much happening in the world right now that needed to be said, that’s not acknowledged. I wrote the spoken word as an introduction to what the song is about.

I’m really happy I wrote ‘Lord Is Coming,’ because of everything that’s going on in the world right now. It needed to be said, for me. It came from a very passionate place and music is a language everybody speaks. It brings everybody together, and that’s one of those songs I think could do it.

My Son

My Son
[1968]
Lyrics & music by Jan Howard
Album: Jan Howard [1969]

"My Son" is a song written and recorded by American country music singer Jan Howard. It is among several songs recorded by country artists during this period that related to the Vietnam War. The song is based on a letter Howard wrote to her son, Jimmy, who was drafted into the war. After writing the letter, she was inspired by family and friends to put it to music. Recording the song in a single take, it was released as a single in 1968.
Jan sent the song to her son in 1968 after its release. Before he could write back, he was killed in battle. At the same time, "My Son" became a major hit on the country charts in the United States. The recording later appeared on Howard's 1969 self-titled studio album. Since its release, "My Son" has been considered among Howard's signature songs. In later years, the song also has also...

How Do You Tell a Small Boy?

How Do You Tell a Small Boy?
(1973)
Single: Wake Up America! / How Do You Tell A Small Boy

The second song "How Do You Tell a Small Boy", narrated from the perspective of a P.O.W. (Prisoner of War), looked at the impact of a missing father on a child.

The P.O.W. wondered how to explain to his son that he "had to go to war", and that he spent most of his "time on a prison floor". The P.O.W. missed many of his son's life events: receiving his first bike, going to school, meeting his friend, playing in the snow. The father concluded that while he could not make up the time, and that his son paid the cost, he intended to stay home.

Single: Wake Up America! / How Do You Tell A Small Boy

A double-sided Vietnam single, written and sung by Lance Lindsay. Bruce Miller arranged both sides. Released by Voices in Vital America (VIVA) - a not-for-profit student organisation formed in 1967 in Los Angeles by Carol Oates, under the name Victory in Vietnam Association, this group sought to counter campus radicalism while promoting concern for US soldiers missing in action and prisoners of war.

They famously distributed metal bracelets, with details of those M.I.A. or P.O.W., selling over 5 million. The group disbanded in 1976. Many of its records are held at the Vietnam Center and Archive, at Texas Tech.

The back of the picture sleeve said that

"over 1800 men are prisoners of war or missing in action. A picture of Lt. Ron Dodge (front cover) being escorted by North Vietnamese soldiers appeared in 'Paris March' magazine... (Continues)

Anche se il senso originale della canzone era un altro, purtroppo anche oggi sembra che non sia "più il momento per niente"
Caro amico sei messo male

Burning Alexandria Down

Burning Alexandria Down
[2018]
Lyrics & music by Bill MacKechnie
Album: Doorways

An album of music inspired by, featuring, and in tribute to, the late Anubis Spire multi-instrumentalist / vocalist / songwriter, Marlon Kempmann.
A mix of songs and performances from the band and a host of special guests including Mary Everhart, Mel Clemans, Marc McKechnie, Jerry Willard, Dace Yates, and Kathy Stewart. Songs that journey from the joy of love and friendship to sadness and pain for the loss of a great friend and fellow musician. But we must remember that when one door closes another opens, always. There is no end to the doorways…

Its track 7, Burning Alexandria Down, is a song about media manipulation and the raising tide of hate groups.
Well they don't like you
