I am very deeply moved by music so I have a very long list
Anything by Freshlyground
This is Doo Bee Doo
Did you hear the news
on the radio today
the people have agreed to give their lives away
I cannot let be there alone no no no
the politicans have agreed
to listen and obey
they listen to all of the people say
I can't let you be there alone
no non no
doo bee doo be doobeaaay
My Immortal- Evananescence
"You used to captivate me by your resonating light"
Anything by Bob Dylan especially Chimes of Freedom, the Times they are a Changing
Anything by U2
Especially
One
City of Blinding Lights
"one you look so beautiful tonight, in the city of blinding lights"
(Every time I am in New York, that line gets too me)
New Year's Day
Pride
Midnight Oil- Forgotten Years, Bedlam Bridge, Beds are Burning, Blue Sky Mine
"Out where the river broke
the bloodwood and the desert oak
Holden wrecks and boiling diesals
steam in forty-five degrees
the time has come to say fair's fair
to pay the rent, to pay our share"
Another segment of Beds are Burning
Four wheels scare the cuckatoos
from Kintore East to Yunedemu
the Western desert lives and breathes
in forty-five degrees"
Bedlam Bridge
In the city of no footpath
there is a building with no people
there are crime and gun decisions
but there is a man who makes your enemies
no ambition ever holds him
sons for the White House gangsters
we have captains not courageous
we have captains tumbling into madness
so light's up the sea
on this winter's night
the city on the hill
so they said
the lights are going around the armory
and the city's melted furnace
is rung around our backs
and there are churches made of metal
we have mountains full of muscle
Peter Gabriel- Red Rain, In Your Eyes, San Jacinto
"We will live, hold the line"
we will breath from the stream, we
and Red Rain
I am standing on the water's edge
in my dreams
i cannot make a single sound as you scream
it cannot be the cold, the ground is too warm to touch
When I run away, I travel in my car
but whichever way I go
I connect to the place you are
and all of my instincts, they return
and the grand facade so soon will burn
without a noise, without my pride
I reach out from the inside
in your eyes
In Your eyes, I see the doorway
your eyes, of a thousand churches your eyes
the resolution
your eyes
of a thousand searches
and Biko
September 77, Port Elizabeth
weather fine
it was business as usual
in police room 619
oh, biko, biko,
you can burn out a candle
but you can't burn out a fire
the wind will catch it and blow it higher
your eyes
Undercover of the night
The sex police are on the streets
make sure the pass laws aren't broken
ok, to get off the topic of apartheid
Freshlygrounds' Father Please don't go
Father please don't go
i cannot make this lonely world without you
Or Semisonics's closing time
Leonard' Cohen's
First we take Manhattan
They sentenced me to twenty years of boredom
for trying to change the system from withinn
i gathered now, I'm gathering to reward them
first we take Manhatten, they we take Berlin
I'm guided by a signal in the heavens
i'm guided by the earthmark on my skin
I'm guided by the beauty of our weapons
first we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin
I don't like your fashion business, mister
I don't like what happened to my sister
and I don't like the drugs that keep you thin
First we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin
U2's Bullet the Blue Sky
(but the lyrics are so convoluted I can't recite them)
Where the streets have no name
I want to run, I want to hide
I Want to tear down the walls that hold me inside
I want to reach out and touch the flame
where the streets have no name
I want to feel some light on my face
I see the dustclouds disappear without a trace
I want to take your time
in the poison rain
where the streets have no name
Mandoza's Nkalakatha which might seem unusual on this list
Did I break the posting space size?
