As we sit back and listen to the same Bruce Springsteen and U2 songs, and not to mention your generic family-safe played out songs like "Celebrate", what are YOUR favorite political songs?
Pardon the french, but I love "Peace the Fuck Out" by Travis. Sounds like The Beatles or something, but has the lyrics and attitude of a anti-corporate/government punk band. Quite powerful, had it not been so strongly laced with profanity in the chorus I think it would have been a big hit here in the states... of course, nothing says "Peace the Fuck Out" as profoundly as... "Peace the Fuck Out." I mean, come on lad! Peace the bloody fuck OUT! :lol
It's quite an obvious attack on the Bush administration and their intentions. I love it. "In ten years time, the gun will say that this was the moment when you threw it away." Brilliant really. Too bad we have lame censorship laws, this song would've moved people! "Please don't give up, you have a voice, don't lose it. You have a choice, so choose it. You have a brain, so use it. The time has come to peace the fuck out." :rock
