Let the Children Play

Let the Children Play
Il testo è dedicato all'innocenza perduta sulla Striscia di Gaza, durante i conflitti del 2008.
Purtroppo le azioni belliche continuano a perpetuarsi, in un conflitto perenne che ancora non riesce a trovare ragione.
Many tears from heaven are fallin’ down

Cette fois encore, Lucien l'âne mon ami, nous allons à la mer et même, plus exactement, sous la mer. C'est une chanson qui relate l’histoire des sous-marins allemands (Unterseeboote) et cela, à partir d'un événement de l'année 1906 : la livraison à la Marine Impériale du premier sous-marin allemand : le U 1 (Unterseeboot 1), ainsi nommé en bonne logique et le suivant, c'est assez farce dans un site de chanson s'appellera : U2, et ainsi de suite, d'où, le et cætera.

Clenching the Fists of Dissent

Clenching the Fists of Dissent
[2007]
Lyrics by R. Flynn
Music by R. Flynn, D. McClain and P. Demmel

The band wrote the lyrics about the Iraq war after conducting research and found that "a lot of stuff does not add up", according to Flynn, which angered the band. Machine Head's debut album, Burn My Eyes, featured a similar song titled "A Thousand Lies" which dealt with the Gulf War.
Robb Flynn said "Clenching the Fists of Dissent" was one of the most difficult song to construct: He attributed the difficulty to the amount of tracks; the introduction of the song has 90, including multiple three-part harmony with two guitars, 20 tracks of snare drum, four tracks of kick drum, and military marching cymbals. The song continues with five electric guitars, three acoustic guitars and two bass guitars...

Assange

Assange
[2010]
Lyrics & Music by John Saullo

Julian Assange founded the WikiLeaks website in 2006 and serves on its advisory board.
He has published material about extrajudicial killings in Kenya, toxic waste dumping in Africa, Church of Scientology manuals, Guantanamo Bay procedures, and banks such as Kaupthing and Julius Baer. In 2010, he published classified details about American involvement in the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. On 28 November 2010, WikiLeaks and its five media partners began publishing secret US diplomatic cables. The White House has called Assange's release of the diplomatic cables "reckless and dangerous" while sources in the Kremlin linked to President Dmitry Medvedev suggested that he "could be awarded a Nobel prize"... from wikipedia

La guerra dei mutandoni

La guerra dei mutandoni
"La guerra dei mutandoni" fu interpretata nell'edizione del 2003 dello Zecchino d'Oro da una bambina che si chiama Teresa Viglianisi.
Siccome qui normalmente attribuiamo le canzoni agli interpreti e non agli autori, mi pare che fosse quanto meno un'informazione mancante.

My Name Is Sylvio

My Name Is Sylvio
A voi la trascrizione del discorso che uno degli uomini politici italiani emergenti, uno degli amministratori più in vista in questo nostro Bel Paese, il Dr. Cetto La Qualunque, ha tenuto a Capodanno nel salotto buono della cultura politica italiana: il dancing Minchionnaire.

Egalité! Fraternité! Libertè vigilé!

Cari italiani e care, troppo care, italiane, questa sera, staseralmente, voglio fare un discorso alla nazione: il discorso di inizio anno. Da più parti mi è stato spessatamente chiesto: “come mai vuoi fare un discorso alla nazione?”. Ho risposto appuntamente: “fatti i cazzi toi!”. Io comincerei subitamente a festeggiare ma purtroppamente però non manca la polemica del giorno festivo.

La bestia De Santis [“stimato” avversario politico del Dr La Qualunque, ndr], che gli ricordo al comma 24, della legge 37, del decreto ingiuntivo Luglio 1987: “io non ti sputo se no ti profumo”,... (Continues)

Lettre au Président

Lettre au Président
[2009]
Dall'album "Politikement Instable"

Come la canzone n°1 su queste CCG/AWS, Le déserteur di Boris Vian, o come una delle ultime pubblicate, رئيس البلاد (Rayes Le Bled) del rapper tunisino El Général, ecco un’altra letteraccia ad un potente di turno, questa indirizzata al dittatore camerunense Paul Biya, per inchiodarlo alle proprie responsabilità verso il popolo affamato, represso, ammazzato.
Paul Biya è al potere dal 1982, da più tempo ancora del sinistro Ben Ali che in questi giorni sta facendo fare a pezzi la sua gente in Tunisia. E come Ben Ali – che già l’ha fatto - anche Biya sta cercando di modificare la Costituzione del paese per potersi “auto-rieleggere” ad libitum.

La trasmissione di questa canzone è stata - ovviamente - vietata su tutto il territorio del Camerun.

Peace for John Lennon

Peace for John Lennon
[2009]
Music by James L. Murrell
Album: The Source

"I always light a candle on the anniversary of his death on December 8th.
I wrote "Peace (For John Lennon)" in memory of the great John Lennon".

"I never got to met him but I always felt that he was like a friend to me through his music.
John changed the way that world was by being himself and standing up for what he believed in.
His music was melodic and the words were always thought provoking".

"Peace (For John Lennon)" is an instrumental rock/fusion song. This is on my new album "The Source". I use some mandolin on the song also".

Лирическая (Марине)

Лирическая (Марине)
Chanson russe -ЛИРИЧЕСКАЯ – Vladimir Semënovič Vysotskij / Владимир Семёнович Высоцкий – 1969 d'après la version italienne LIRICA de Silvana Aversa – 1992

On connaît l'histoire d'amour qui unit dans des temps déjà lointains, Vlad (imir) et Marina Vlad(y). Ils se marièrent et il mourut. Un conte tragique... Mais au fond, Vlad n'est jamais parti du cœur de Marina... Elle a continué à le faire vivre, ce chanteur-poète à la voix rauque, d'avoir tant fumé... La chanson que voici raconte sans doute les premiers pas de leurs amours. Que dit donc cette chanson contre la guerre ? Nul ne le sait... Si ce n'est qu'elle célèbre la paix, au moins entre deux êtres.

Quant à moi, dit Lucien l'âne, comme j'aime beaucoup Marina Vlady et Vlad, j'aime beaucoup que l'on installe ici dans les C.C.G. toutes les chansons de Vlad... qui fut lui aussi un dissident majeur... de « ce monde d'où l'on ne peut fuir ».... (Continues)
