This is a favorite of mine that I've never seen posted around these parts. Tom Clay - What the World Needs Now Is Love/Abraham, Martin and John (1971) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y36L2EIYlMQ The part with Ted's eulogy for his brother Bobby Kennedy is particularly emotional: quote:Like it or not, we live in times of danger and uncertainty. That is the way he lived, that is what he leaves us. My brother need not be idealized, or enlarged in death beyond what he was in life. Be remembered simply as a good and decent man, who saw wrong and tried to right it, saw suffering and tried to heal it, saw war and tried to stop it.

Might as well make a theme of it. Simon and Garfunkel - The Sound Of Silence (1965) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fO_-esmcsv4 Living Colour - Cult Of Personality (1988) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7xxgRUyzgs0 New Order 1963 (1995) (Which posits that Johnny was trying to kill his wife and the assassin missed) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IBlxkdPPJ-c Bonus: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3A2BCykHesA

This morning I heard this song on the radio for the first time in three years: Ten Years After - I'd Love To Change The World https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J7-8sCLWwLk quote:Everywhere is freaks and hairies And I've always thought this was a good companion song, answering the questions (in a hippy-dippy sort of way) posed by the first song: England Dan & John Ford Coley - Love Is The Answer https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_QZjJU-mtFU quote:... And to round this post out: Three Dog Night - Easy To Be Hard https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jeXcaRYNlSQ quote:How can people be so heartless

Tomero_the_Great posted:Three Dog Night - Easy To Be Hard --- I was planning on putting together a Neil Young themed post, but I think this one deserves to stand alone. When I first heard this in concert I instantly fell in love with it. In many ways it reminds me of Hunter S. Thompson's "Wave Speech." Neil Young & Crazy Horse - Walk Like A Giant https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ub1qw2MmVOM quote:I used to walk like a giant on the land, Come And See fucked around with this message at 04:05 on Apr 29, 2014 |

Have a bunch of Neil Young songs. Let's Impeach the President https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jtjQNWr9tjA (Watch for all the wonderful first reactions. Bittersweet like a black comedy.) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n3_cS_iQ-w0 quote:Who's the man who hired all the criminals, Alabama https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uD3bGEFxGC0 quote:Oh Alabama Ohio https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hkg-bzTHeAk quote:Tin soldiers and Nixon coming, Southern Man https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kVRxdPWV3RM quote:I saw cotton, American Dream https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GBIEjt5yz8A quote:Reporters crowd around your house, Rockin' In The Free World https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QGTzMvXTUiY quote:There's colors on the street, Come And See fucked around with this message at 02:11 on Jun 10, 2014 |

Here's two that I think make a good combo: The Godfathers - Birth, School, Work, Death https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QO5dcW0P75M quote:I've been abused and I've been confused, The Replacements - Unsatisfied https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DU6IndADEWI quote:Look me in the eye,

A few pages back someone mentioned that political songs don't get much airplay (other than maybe 2Pac's Changes). Canadian content laws dictate that popular radio be at least 35% Canadian, so in addition to all the Neil Young we also get to hear songs like these: Bruce Cockburn - If I Had A Rocket Launcher https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d1kbqtoiYqs quote:Here comes the helicopter, second time today. Five Man Electrical Band - I'm A Stranger Here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qUHXXai0Drg quote:Well, I'm a stranger here in this place called Earth, The Band - Shape I'm In https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oHCVTM6obmo quote:Go out yonder, peace in the valley, The Guess Who - American Woman https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cl4GWOkvDeM quote:American woman, gonna mess your mind. Tom Cochrane & Red Rider - Calling America (Couldn't find the studio version so this will have to do) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0-Idg_qFnd0 quote:I dreamt I was a refugee,
