Extrajudicial guitar noise…
Is that Hillary on the vocal? What a piece of crap as a selection.
After reflecting on the week's events, and on potential musical selections that might illustrate some aspect of them, what would you have selected this week, instead?
Apropo of nothing, Pp, but have you ever heard the Mormon Tabernacle Choir sing Battle Hymn of the Republic? Be jubilant my feet indeed! We could all learn from their ability to be ambassadors for an often unpopular monvement.
Here ya go,V.
Given the origin of that song’s melody, it probably won't be played at the Southern White House:
What a piece of crap as a selection. great Juneteenth day 2017
Two brothers from different mothers with one unifying thought: they hate the Trump stink selection.
Oh well.
Here is the Playing for Change "Songs Around the World" version of Clandestino.
Manu Chao –
El Clandestino (English Version) lyrics
Alone I go with my sorrow
Alone goes my sentence
To run is my destiny
To escape the law
Lost in the heart of the great Babylon
They call me
Clandestine
For not having any papers
To a city of the north
I went to work
I left my life
Between Ceuta and
Gibraltar
I'm a line in the sea
A ghost in the city
My life is forbidden
So says the authority
Alone I go with my sorrow
Alone goes my sentence
To run is my destiny
For having no papers
Lost
In the heart
Of the great Babylon
They call me clandestine
I'm the lawbreaker
Mano negra clandestine
Peruan clandestine
African clandestine
Marihuana illegal
Alone I go with my sorrow
Alone
Goes my sentence
To run is my destiny
To escape the law
Lost in the heart of the great Babylon
They call me
Clandestine
For not having any papers
