Exquisite graphic composition in this musical anti-war video, sets a new high-water mark for me! This is what I'd like to grow up to be, next month! yeah, right! lol

All kidding aside, this piece of media is a real treat and could stand some publicity. It is kind of buried.

3. Not nearly as good as your 'Sounds of Silence"
I sent the link to several family members, they cried. And they think I'm so cool cause I know you.

This one is good too.

Edited on Sun Nov-05-06 02:45 AM by Jeffersons Ghost
I found it when I first went to YOUTUBE with our DU version of Sounds of Silence.

Viva is very nice but got it backward:

You see, It's me that is honored to know Viva_La_Revolution! and we will end her crying very soon!



If we can just get the stains out...

14. NEW & DIFFERENT DU COLLABORATION! check this out...
Edited on Sun Nov-05-06 11:03 AM by Jeffersons Ghost
I wrote an anti-war poem, inspired by a visit to the VA a few months back and zulch-zulu, here at DU has honored me by putting it too music. I had reposted the poem last month and we went back and forth on the OP to work out the chorus, which wasn't a part of the original poem. WE CAN ALL STILL VOTE FOR HIS HARD WORK: IT WAS POSTED LATE LAST NIGHT RIGHT AFTER MY LAST COMMENT HERE.

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=132x2928010

here's the lyrics but you've got to go to his link to hear the MP3


No More War

If I could give them eyes to see - past profits from a war
Perhaps Iraq could then be free - to live, just like before
Perhaps they'd see it clear as day - by seeing their own child
blowing other peoples' kids away - in conflict, now gone wild

If I could give them ears to hear - the muffled cries at night
Perhaps they'd listen to the fear - of missiles taking flight
Perhaps they'd hear a mothers' cry - weeping for her son
who bought into a vicious lie - which truly serves no one

(Chorus)

If I could give them hearts to feel - the sorrow and the pain
Perhaps they'd taste the blood of death - as missions go insane
Perhaps they'd feel their bones break - when hidden bombs explode
near a child who fights for freedoms' sake - along a dusty road

If I could give them minds to think - about the greater cost
Perhaps we only win at war - when we measure what we've lost
Perhaps they'd learn, to truly win - we simply end the game
that measures score in countless death - on walls too black to name

Chorus:
When will soldiers dying ever win a war?
When will leaders learn it's not a game-day score?
When will people scream like they never have before?
Take the streets:
Raise your fist!
say “no more war!”
“no more war!”

I also hope a few of you will go to YOUTUBE and vote my VERY FIRST movie-clip up... It's anti-war, as many of you might have guessed... "show it a little DU love" as we'd write, when all pulling together to beat the trolls in online surveys, back in the early days.

12. Very powerful video
It really brought the tragedy of Bush and this immoral war into painful focus. Heartbreaking.

17. hi chat, nice of you to drop by... I just posted one that's even better than this OP
OVER THE RAINBOW needs to hit our greatest page. I've never seen such expertise, even when I worked at the TV station! There's a pro behind OVER THE RAINBOW that's like the WIZARD BEHIND THE CURTAIN! our boys and girls aren't in Kansas anymore Toto. Let's click some ruby-red shoes on-line and bring them home, by not only voting OVER THE RAINBOW up here at DU, but also here:

13. this is a classic Pete Seeger composition . . . the lyrics are adapted . . .
from the Book of Ecclesiastes in The Bible . . .

I've known Pete for a long time, and I've always been amazed at how well he articulates liberal/progressive values both in his music and in conversation . . . he was talking about protecting the environment before many knew the meaning of the word (at least in its present-day context) . . . and his record of anti-war activism is extensive and long-standing . . .

I myself was introduced to both environmental and anti-war activism by Pete (I worked with him on the Clearwater project, we marched together in DC in 1971), a gift for which I will be forever grateful . . .

Pete is a true national treasure, and someone for whom I have the greatest and most sincere admiration and affection . . .

fyi . . . http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pete_Seeger
