Eleanor (Roosevelt) - Jonathan Sprout - 2000
Fonte: Songs for Teaching®.
Using Music to Promote Learning
ELEANOR ROOSEVELT (1884-1962), shy and insecure as a child, emerged as a public figure when her husband Franklin was elected president of the United States in 1932. She brought her great compassion and concern to the world’s neediest people. As US representative to the United Nations, she helped create the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and became a champion of equal rights for minorities. The most active and influential -- and sometimes controversial -- of all US presidents’ wives, she became so respected and admired, she was often called “First Lady of the World.”
“No one can make you feel inferior without your consent.” - Eleanor Roosevelt

San Francisco Mabel Joy
I have a couple comments in regard to the post by "L.E." on 2021/4/8:
1. This page states that Mickey Newbury's song San Francisco Mabel Joy is an "anti-war" song. If that is true, then I believe the reason the Georgia boy is sent to federal prison is that he was a draft dodger, although I don't think he did it intentionally. Rather, I get the impression that he was a little bit "dumb" and just didn't know any better - maybe kind of like the character Forrest Gump. And I suppose the prostitute Mabel Joy was a little bit the same. Other than that possibility, I don't see anything else in the content of this song's lyrics that would make it anti-war.
2. I too wonder how the Georgia boy was shot before the end of the song, but it was probably not from escaping prison. I don't think he would have been able to make it alive all the way from prison in Grayrock, Arkansas to Los Angeles with a bullet in his side, and especially not by hopping freight trains.

Io so che un giorno
Anche per questa ragione rappresenta un caso particolarmente interessante il tentativo da parte nel Nci – documentato nel carteggio disponibile in appendice a questo saggio – di avviare una collaborazione con Gianni Morandi per fargli cantare una o più canzoni di Della Mea. La prima lettera, firmata da Michele Straniero, risale al periodo di preparazione del secondo Folk Festival e viene spedita tramite l’intercessione di Angelo Ephrikian (all’epoca suocero di Morandi) e Giovanni Pirelli. Essa dimostra come vi fosse, intorno al 1966 (ovvero dopo l’uscita di Leydi dal gruppo), la volontà di allargare l’attività del Nci in una direzione più “nazionalpopolare”, anche coinvolgendo musicisti pubblicamente iscritti tra le fila del “nemico”.
Il tentativo è particolarmente significativo se si considera l’evoluzione della scrittura di Della Mea. A livello stilistico, un brano come “Io so che un giorno”... (continuer)

Adriana Martino, nata a Caserta nel 1931, è una soprano, cantante e regista teatrale. Nella sua carriera, a parte l’attività propriamente operistica (ha lavorato anche con Herbert Von Karajan), ha affiancato l’interpretazione di canzoni folkloristiche e tradizionali, ed anche di canzoni politiche. Sorella maggiore della celebre attrice e cantante Miranda Martino, è stata sposata con il compositore fiesolano Benedetto Ghiglia (1921-2012), che ricordiamo tra le altre cose per la colonna sonora del film resistenziale Corbari (1970, diretto da Valentino Orsini e interpretato da Giuliano Gemma e Tina Aumont).

Victor Jara
Versione di Dick Gaughan
Live in Edinburgh (1985, reissued 1997)
This live acoustic CD, recorded in 1985, marked Dick Gaughan’s first live performance after an illness that robbed him of his powerful voice for many months with no guarantee of its return. As this concert proves, Gaughan’s voice was fully recovered – he calls the evening “one of the most emotional and inspiring experiences my life” – and rings out loud and clear on a repertoire of songs of social and political comment with a sprinkling of traditional ballads. There are songs by Ewan MacColl (“Jamie Foyers,” “Ballad of Accounting,” “Compañeros”), Tommy Makem (“Four Green Fields”), Tommy Sands (“Your Daughters and Your Sons”), Gaughan’s adaptations of others’ lyrics and poetry (“Which Side Are You On?” “Now Westlin Winds,” “Glenlogie”), anarchist songwriter Leon Rosselson’s “World Turned Upside Down,” and a song of deep inspiration to Gaughan, “Victor Jara of Chile.” Gaughan was delighted to be back on stage, and you can tell!

Megaton
(2025)
We should be aligned with one another but instead we are crippled by social media and the resulting separatism: Genocide… swipe… gym bods… swipe… food pics… swipe… starvation. Killing upon killing, so much terrible, horrifying information followed by a cat meme followed by faces filtered beyond recognition.
Such is the weight of trauma, guilt and powerlessness in privileged societies that we squirm like an overloaded petri dish full of algae fed by the algorithm. Everything is wrong and everything as a reaction is argued to be right, and in this we give birth to behaviours that smother solidarity and cause mass waves of haemorrhaging alienation while the world quietly collapses offscreen.

Poi, il commissario prova a far della poesia: "E così il pacifico paese di Pàvana, sperduto fra le montagne del Pistoiese e che da secoli viveva nella tranquillità più patriarcale, amante del lavoro, della famiglia, della religione, stava per tramutarsi in un centro di sovversivismo". Dopo aver "conferito con le persone ragguardevoli del luogo" che non oso immaginare quali potessero essere, il commissario fece perquisire le case di una decina di pavanesi a suo dire pericolosi. Tra questi, anche Enrico. Requisirono alcuni libri cosiddetti "sovversivi" e arrestarono tal Iacometti Mario di Lorenzo per mancata denuncia di una baionetta militare e un altro perché in contatto con un comitato anarchico di Milano pro-vittime politiche. Dopo le perquisizioni, i sovversivi furono diffidati a verbale. E tra i nomi compare ancora Guccini Enrico di Francesco. Amerigo. Allora bastava poco per essere considerati... (continuer)

Grand Coulee Dam
20 Gennaio 1968, alla Carnegie Hall di New York si tiene il primo dei 2 concerti tributo a Woody Guthrie. [Il secondo si terra’ il 12 Settembre 1970 alla Hollywood Bowl di Los Angeles]
Il concerto di New York ebbe un'eco ed un successo straordinario.
Woody era appena scomparso il 3 Ottobre del 1967 ed il figlio Arlo porto’ sul palco un cast di musicisti di grande livello.
Oltre a Bob Dylan accompagnato da The Band si esibirono : Richie Havens,Judy Collins,Pete Seeger,Tom Paxton,Odetta e Jack Elliott.
Per il Menestrello di Duluth si trattava della sua prima performance live ufficiale dopo il presunto e discusso incidente in moto del 1966.
La interpretazione di Dylan di “ Grand Coulee Dam” in questa occasione presenta minime differenze testuali, non significative, rispetto alla originale di Guthrie ma ci offre una traccia live unica,vivace,ritmica ed intensa, grazie anche al supporto di Robbie Robertson & co.

Bombe
(2024)
Album: due
"Bombe" è nata di getto nei primi giorni dell’invasione russa dell’Ucraina, quando Andrea Pasciuti (voce dei NuovoNormale) ha tradotto in musica lo smarrimento di un’Europa improvvisamente vulnerabile.
Il brano non si limita a evocare la paura della guerra, ma la porta dentro le stanze quotidiane: lo zaino lasciato alla porta “sperando non servirà mai”, il tepore fragile delle stufe elettriche, la neve che ovatta un silenzio irreale.
Completata insieme al chitarrista Andrea Imberciadori, la canzone si è trasformata in un inno intimo e inquieto a quella sospensione tra normalità e minaccia. Pubblicata nel secondo album della band (2024), "Bombe" è un racconto emotivo e viscerale di come la guerra possa abbattersi, all’improvviso, sulle vite di tutti

Bresci, l'anarchico tornato dall'America
Storia di Gaetano Bresci anarchico pratese emigrato in America il quale dopo aver appresa la notizia che il Re Umberto I avesse data una medaglia al valore al Generale Bava Beccaris per aver sparato sulla folla durante le cinque giornate di Milano, tornò in Italia con il solo intento di abbattere il simbolo del potere, Re Umberto e cosi fece il 29 luglio 1900. "Condannato all'ergastolo (la pena di morte era stata abolita) fu trovato morto il 22 maggio del 1901 nella sua cella del carcere di Santo Stefano, una delle isole ponziane, presso Ventotene. Molti dubbi sulla tesi ufficiale del suicidio; alcune voci di carcerati nello stesso penitenziario circolarono subito, attribuendo la causa della morte ad un violento pestaggio da parte delle guardie carcerarie".

Dall'album IL MALE (2025)

Considera che la nostra è stata la prima generazione che ha codificato e trasformato in business la nostalgia. Questa cosa si vede prepotentemente nei video di TikTok, il social che ultimamente sposta più soldi. E si sta nutrendo proprio di nostalgia. Il paradosso sta nel fatto che noi della Generazione X adesso abbiamo nostalgia di un periodo in cui, alla fine, neanche stavamo bene.

Lo si capisce: come tutte le canzoni comunarde in generale, e quelle di Pottier in particolare, è già sterminatamente lunga con le sette strofe, figuriamoci con nove. Contiene anche qualche piccola nota esplicativa.

Born-Again Cretin
Credo il titolo sia un gioco di parole tra "born again Christian" (rinato al Cristianesimo) e "rinato cretino". I rinati al Cristianesimo sono quelle persone che hanno abbandonato il Cristianesimo dopo i sacramenti e poi hanno avuto un risveglio in tarda età: moltissimi cantanti famosi americani sono born again Christians. Credo che il gioco di parole del titolo non sia relazionato al testo più di tanto. Le interpretazioni del testo mi sembrano giuste, forse è una canzone contro la vanità di certe star del suo tempo.

“The militant suffragette movement was stopped dead in its tracks by the outbreak of the war. Yet, those most intimately involved in the movement suspected that women could never return to their utterly subordinate position in society after it was all over. They were right. This song is a tribute to those incredible women who fought (and won) their own war.”
