OK. I want to put together a page anti-war CDs. I don't want any of the classic stuff. I need the new stuff that's being denied air time. I have Steve Earle's "revolution starts now" and i have the two by Dennis Kyne

But I'm pretty out of the loop when it comes to the music scene. Didn't Green Day come out with something? I'd like to at least get a page up promoting the music, and possibly sell them through the site.

There are a lot more out there, but this is a start.

Good!


Might be nice to save and cut myself my own "collectable" anti-war CD.

I bet some of the radio programs on Air AMerica have a list of the bumper music they use. if someone could check that out for me, I'd be mucho appreciative.

I really need this help and i'm so swamped that I'm going to bump this to "latest news" so everyone will see it and i may be able to solicit more help. I'm looking for groups that have put out whole CDs rather than just one or two songs. But I'm interested in singular songs as well. We'll see what we can put together.

(Didn't Know I Was) UnAmerican
by Ian Rhett


http://www.sharedvoice.org/unamerican/
Song with flash

Lyrics:

Didn't know I was unamerican
For choosing to give a damn
Or unpatriotic
For daring to take a stand
For what I believe in
Looks like freedom to me -
Expressions of liberty
Wanting our America to be
A responsible hegemony


Didn't know I was a communist
For wanting to share the wealth
It doesn't take an economist
To measure the cost of health
And what I believe in
Looks like heaven to me -
One human family
Where everybody's got enough to eat
And something warm to cover their feet

Didn't know I'd be labeled a terrorist
For daring to speak my mind
It's becoming more precarious
For failing to toe the line
And what I believe in
Sounds like freedom to me -
Like the Sons of Liberty
In 1773
Dumping 45 tonnes of tea


Didn't know I was in the minority
Of people who love the Earth
I hope it becomes a priority
Before it gets any worse
And what I believe In
Looks like heaven to me -
Where angels take the shape of the trees
Giving us clean air to breathe
From the rivers to the mountains and seas...


Didn't know I hated my country
For acknowledging the Truth
This war is despicable profiteering
At the expense of our youth
And what I believe In
Looks like heaven to me -
All of humanity
Living as community
In relative harmony

I know it's just a song
But if the whole world sang along
How much longer would it be this way?

P.S. great idea T.J. thumbup.gif I made a reel-to-reel on this theme in 1979. It was all old stuff. Different story today. Different beat. Good luck and have fun collecting.

edited to correct spelling of Shear's-trivial eh ?

Picture if you will, a POAC van, painted in POAC style with loudspeakers on the top that travels to every anti-war and political event blasting this music and Air America and handing out flyers and pamphlets and POAC gear to the attendees.

Or as a first aid van for people that are teargassed and peppersprayed.

I can dream, can't I?

Or I could use this...

...terrorizing the Icecream capitol of the world ?

cool beans.

"Or as a first aid van for people that are teargassed and peppersprayed.
I can dream, can't I?"

The first aid idea could come in handy once the sheeple hit the streets. And yes, dream on. Dreamers generate brilliant ideas without realizing it. But what about the tractor ? That mode of transportation decorated as a POACmobile would really catch some attention. BTW, did you have a chance to find out where the term redneck comes from while on the tractor ?
POAC
That's a pretty cool idea. they have tractor parades here. Yes, seriously. And i could get my redneck cred to go with my street cred.

Don't tell me about the tractor parades, I've been in a few myself. As long as you're on a tractor your safe to speak out. If you have a red neck to boot, all the better. Honestly, to me, you look more like a redneck than the city slicker you really are.

City slicker. LOL. KC cityslickers taking to the RRs. Super cool.

Seriously, your musical collection will probably be done in three weeks time, if everyone pitches in. I wanna reserve a copy now.
sky of mind
That's not a red neck, it's called a farmers tan.


By the way, please note, not every red neck is a conservative hillbilly.
Some are actually quite well educated, and even liberal!

The point is that just because they farm in Ohio,
doesn't mean they're stupid.

Agreed, they also come from Kansas ;-) and some of those Jayhawks are really "liberal" or downright independant.

Artist: Immortal Technique f/ Mos Def
Album: Bin Laden 12"
Song: Bin Laden

Lyrics :

[Mos Def - talking]
Man, you hear this bullshit they be talkin'
Every day, man
It's like these motherfuckers is just like professional liars
YouknowwhatI'msayin? It's wild
Listen

[Hook - Mos Def]
Bin Laden didn't blow up the projects
It was you, nigga
Tell the truth, nigga
(Bush knocked down the towers)--[Jadakiss]
Tell the truth, nigga
(Bush knocked down the towers)--[Jadakiss]
Tell the truth, nigga

Bin Laden didn't blow up the projects
It was you, nigga
Tell the truth, nigga
(Bush knocked down the towers)--[Jadakiss]
Tell the truth, nigga
(Bush knocked down the towers)--[Jadakiss]

[Verse 1 - Immortal Technique]
I pledge no allegiance, nigga fuck the president's speeches
I'm baptized by America and covered in leeches
The dirty water that bleaches your soul and your facial features
Drownin' you in propaganda that they spit through the speakers
And if you speak about the evil that the government does
The Patriot Act'll track you to the type of your blood
They try to frame you, and say you was tryna sell drugs
And throw a federal indictment on niggaz to show you love
This shit is run by fake Christians, fake politicians
Look at they mansions, then look at the conditions you live in
All they talk about is terrorism on television
They tell you to listen, but they don't really tell you they mission
They funded Al-Qaeda, and now they blame the Muslim religion
Even though Bin Laden, was a CIA tactician
They gave him billions of dollars, and they funded his purpose
Fahrenheit 9/11, that's just scratchin' the surface

[Hook - Mos Def]
Bin Laden didn't blow up the projects
It was you, nigga
Tell the truth, nigga
(Bush knocked down the towers)--[Jadakiss]
Tell the truth, nigga
(Bush knocked down the towers)--[Jadakiss]
Tell the truth, nigga

Bin Laden didn't blow up the projects
It was you, nigga
Tell the truth, nigga
(Bush knocked down the towers)--[Jadakiss]
Tell the truth, nigga
(Bush knocked down the towers)--[Jadakiss]

[Verse 2 - Immortal Technique]
They say the rebels in Iraq still fight for Saddam
But that's bullshit, I'll show you why it's totally wrong
Cuz if another country invaded the hood tonight
It'd be warfare through Harlem, and Washington Heights
I wouldn't be fightin' for Bush or White America's dream
I'd be fightin' for my people's survival and self-esteem
I wouldn't fight for racist churches from the south, my nigga
I'd be fightin' to keep the occupation out, my nigga
You ever clock someone who talk shit, or look at you wrong?
Imagine if they shot at you, and was rapin' your moms
And of course Saddam Hussein had chemical weapons
We sold him that shit, after Ronald Reagan's election
Mercenary contractors fightin' a new era
Corporate military bankin' off the war on terror
They controllin' the ghetto, with the failed attack
Tryna distract the fact that they engineerin' the crack
So I'm strapped like Lee Malvo holdin' a sniper rifle
These bullets'll touch your kids, and I don't mean like Michael
Your body be sent to the morgue, stripped down and recycled
I fire on house niggaz that support you and like you
Cuz innocent people get murdered in the struggle daily
And poor people never get shit and struggle daily
This ain't no alien conspiracy theory, this shit is real
Written on the dollar underneath the Masonic seal

(I don't rap for dead presidents
I'd rather see the president dead
It's never been said but I set precedents)--[Eminem]

[Hook - Mos Def]
Bin Laden didn't blow up the projects
It was you, nigga
Tell the truth, nigga
(Bush knocked down the towers)--[Jadakiss]
Tell the truth, nigga
(Bush knocked down the towers)--[Jadakiss]
Tell the truth, nigga

Bin Laden didn't blow up the projects
It was you, nigga
Tell the truth, nigga
(Bush knocked down the towers)--[Jadakiss]
Tell the truth, nigga
(Bush knocked down the towers)--[Jadakiss]

(Shady Records was 80 seconds away from the towers
Some cowards fucked with the wrong building, they meant to hit ours)-- [Eminem]




A PERFECT CIRCLE LYRICS

"Pet"

Don't fret precious I'm here, step away from the window
Go back to sleep

Lay your head down child
I won't let the boogeyman come

Counting bodies like sheep
To the rhythm of the war drums

Pay no mind to the rabble
Pay no mind to the rabble

Head down, go to sleep
To the rhythm of the war drums

Pay no mind what other voices say
They don't care about you, like I do, like I do
Safe from pain and truth and choice and other poison devils,
See, they don't give a fuck about you, like I do.

Just stay with me, safe and ignorant,
Go back to sleep
Go back to sleep

Lay your head down child
I won't let the boogeyman come
Count the bodies like sheep
To the rhythm of the war drums

Pay no mind to the rabble
Pay no mind to the rabble

Head down, go to sleep to the rhythm of the war drums

I'll be the one to protect you from
Your enemies and all your demons

I'll be the one to protect you from
A will to survive and a voice of reason

I'll be the one to protect you from
Your enemies and your choices son
They're one in the same
I must isolate you
Isolate and save you from yourself

Swayin to the rhythm of the new world order and
Count the bodies like sheep to the rhythm of the war drums

The boogeymen are coming
The boogeymen are coming

Keep your head down, go to sleep, to the rhythm of a war drums

Stay with me
Safe and ignorant
Just stay with me
Hold you and protect you from the other ones
The evil ones
Don't love you son,
Go back to sleep
