Only the Young
(January 2020)
It was hard to see so many people feel like they had canvassed and done everything and tried so hard. I saw a lot of young people's hopes dashed. And I found that to be particularly tragic, because young people are the people who feel the worst effects of gun violence, and student loans and trying to figure out how to start their lives and how to pay their bills, and climate change, and are we going to war — all these horrific situations that we find ourselves facing right now.

Civiltà dei fumi
[1973]
Singolo : Civiltà Dei Fumi
Solo un bellissimo 45 giri per questo gruppo di Genova, attivo tra il 1968 ed il 1973.
La formazione originale, comprendente, oltre a Carbone e Fognani, il chitarrista Piero Morielli, il tastierista Stefano Maragliano e il batterista Gino Delfino, venne modificata nel 1971 con l'ingresso di Barabino e Fantacchiotti, e il gruppo suonò soprattutto a Genova e Torino.
Il 45 giri ha uno stile che ricorda i Metamorfosi, con voce vagamente lirica ed ottime tastiere, e il testo di Civiltà dei fumi è tra i primi esempi di brani dedicati alla tutela dell'ambiente.
Il gruppo continuò con una nuova formazione fino al 1973, con Carbone e Fantacchiotti coadiuvati da Massimo Gori (chitarra, poi con Latte e Miele), Marco "Picchio" Piccardo (basso) e Luciano Puppo (tastiere). Questa formazione registrò dei demo ma senza arrivare alla produzione di altri dischi.

Un Grazie davvero di cuore di esistere. Genova Antifascista si è dimostrata un apparato solido, coerente, unito, compatto. Il giorno del 30 giugno ha dimostrato ( senza averne bisogno) cosa vuol dire senso di appartenenza dei valori Antifascisti. Un boato di Mani e Voci pronti alla Lotta, un testimone che arriva dal quel Giugno 1960 che continua verso nuovi orizzonti. Verso la difesa della Costituzione, verso la solida e umana contrapposizione al fascismo. Purtroppo io non ero presente perché chiamato a suonare ai giardini Luzzati, ma il mio senso di appartenenza mi ha portato ad eseguire la vostra canzone come un mio atto di riconoscenza e abbraccio a tutti voi. E qui il testo. GRAZIE ANCORA COMPANEROS!!

Dopo le sparatorie di massa di El Paso e Dayton, Lana Del Rey ha deciso di usare il potere della musica. Per esprimere i suoi pensieri.
La cantautrice è andata su Instagram ieri, lunedì 5 agosto, e ha lanciato una nuova canzone intitolata Looking For America. Mentre Jack Antonoff suona la chitarra, LDR canta dolcemente. «Sto ancora cercando la mia versione dell’America / Senza le pistole la bandiera può volare liberamente / Niente bombe nel cielo, solo fuochi d’artificio e io e te», canta.

Una canzone che si domanda quale sarà il destino degli Stati Uniti dopo la vittoria di Trump, e ricorda che anche nei periodi più bui della storia recente, durante la Guerra del Vietnam e la Guerra Fredda, ci fosse un'importante controcultura protagonista dei movimenti pacifisti e hippie e del movimento per i diritti civili. E anche oggi non bisogna farsi da parte, ma continuare a ballare e a lottare.

Heartbreak House
[2008]
Music by Michael Saxell
Lyrics by Keith Reid, outside Procol Harum
Album: The Common Thread (The Keith Reid Project)
As lyricist for Procol Harum, Keith Reid wrote the words to their hit "A Whiter Shade Of Pale" and many other nice songs. He moved to America in 1986, and in the mid-'00s started writing songs for what would become The Common Thread, the new multi-artist album which was issued in August 2008 under The Keith Reid Project banner.
He wrote this song with the Swedish songwriter Michael Saxell, who handles the vocals.
The song is about a woman whose husband is killed when he is sent overseas to fight a war.
Says Keith: “That song I wrote in Sweden. But it felt American to me. The military guy, to me it was an American. I think the characters, although I actually wrote it somewhere else, it felt like an American situation. The idea for that was, 'even the floorboards... (continuer)

War Is Not Healthy
[2003]
Lyrics by Keith Reid
Music by Gary Brooker
Lorriane Schneider (1925-1972), a doctor’s wife, mother of four and printmaker, created one of the most emotionally charged posters of the Vietnam War era out of concern that her eldest son would be drafted into the army. At the time, given Lyndon Johnson and General William Westmoreland’s increased troop build-up, one need not be a fortune-teller to predict the inevitable consequence. But when the poster was issued in 1967, few could foresee that Schneider’s petition for peace would become the ubiquitous anti-war icon it was then or is today, almost 40 years later.
In 1967, Schneider entered a small print titled “Primer” to a miniature print show at Pratt Institute in New York. The only entry criterion was each submitted work could not exceed four square inches. With the war uppermost on her mind, Schneider made what she called her own... (continuer)

Stranamore (pure questo è amore)
Buonasera, ho letto con interesse tutta l’anima discussione e mi permetto di dare il mio parere.
Secondo me la versione del semplice pestaggio fascista è veramente voler semplificare al massimo un testo che è volontariamente ricchissimo di riferimenti culturali. Ciò non toglie che possa essere una interpretazione possibile.
Secondo me, tuttavia, la scena descritta è davvero quella di un gruppo di attivisti di sinistra che malmena un malcapitato. Ma l’osservatore, cioè Vecchioni, ha l’impulso di dire “sono anche io fascista” come ad accusare i ragazzi di sinistra che usando gli stessi mezzi della destra anni ‘20 si rendevano -per l’appunto- fascisti.
Questa spiegazione mi convince di più perché l’osservatore in quella frase esprime un giudizio e non una frase dettata dalla violenza degli eventi.
Infatti, come qualcuno ha fatto notare, si parla di paura. La paura di esprimere una valida opinione, che però gli sarebbe costato un pestaggio.

Laurel Aitken, born in Cuba in 1927, moved to Brixton, London in 1960. He released the ska / reggae track "Stop the War in Vietnam" - obviously a protest song from the title, which is repeated over and over, on the obscure and hard to find album Scandal in a Brixton Market (Economy # ECO-8).

(1969)
Testo incompleto

Testo incompleto
dall'album Thinking Of What They Did To Me
Big Joe Williams (1903-1982), delta blues guitar player, born Joseph Lee Williams, in Crawford Mississippi, used a nine-string acoustic guitar, giving his delta style an interesting, unique sound. In the track "Army Man in Vietnam" (Arhoolie Records # 1053) he expressed a desire to "stop the war in Vietnam" because he feared that the government might "drop that atom bomb", a reflection of Cold War tensions. The song also showed concern for young men, at the age of eighteen, drafted into the army and given a gun. Note the minor reference to Christmas: "some will be home for Christmas, some will hurt real bad". Chris Strachwitz (founder of Arhoolie) recorded the song on 14 December 1969 at Arhoolie House in Berkeley, California. It featured Charlie Musselwhite on harmonica.

The war in Afghanistan continues destroying lives, due to the direct consequences of violence and the war-induced breakdown of public health, security, and infrastructure. Civilians have been killed by crossfire, improvised explosive devices (IEDs), assassinations, bombings, and night raids into houses of suspected insurgents.

In 2020 (Part 2)
[2020]
Lyrics & music by Lee Shapiro
In 2020 (Part 2) is about the year of a CoronaVirus pandemic, systemic police racism, the BLM movement, riots, face masks, politics, and, of course, Trump making everything worse..
“When I wrote "In 2020 (Part 1)", back in February, it was basically a personal story about my medical issues and my continued anger and frustration of Trump. When it was written and posted online, none of the major issues that were facing this year had even begun. No pandemic, no riots, no protesting, no confederate flag protests, no Wall Street crashes, no face masks, no self-quarantining and no Trump making all of this much worse. So I had to write a second part of this song, to include everything that happened since I wrote the first part. The music is similar (with a faster tempo and some changes), but different enough to make it an entirely new song”.
Lyrics & music by Lee Shapiro
In 2020 (Part 2) is about the year of a CoronaVirus pandemic, systemic police racism, the BLM movement, riots, face masks, politics, and, of course, Trump making everything worse..
“When I wrote "In 2020 (Part 1)", back in February, it was basically a personal story about my medical issues and my continued anger and frustration of Trump. When it was written and posted online, none of the major issues that were facing this year had even begun. No pandemic, no riots, no protesting, no confederate flag protests, no Wall Street crashes, no face masks, no self-quarantining and no Trump making all of this much worse. So I had to write a second part of this song, to include everything that happened since I wrote the first part. The music is similar (with a faster tempo and some changes), but different enough to make it an entirely new song”.
So here it is the second part

Hoping Machine
[1944]
Lyrics by Woody Guthrie
Music by Jay Farrar
Album: New Multitudes [2012]
“Don’t let any earthy calamity knock your dreamer and your hoping machine …”
New Multitudes is a Woody Guthrie tribute album performed by Jay Farrar, Will Johnson, Anders Parker, and Jim James to commemorate the 100th anniversary of Guthrie's birth, released through Rounder Records on February 28, 2012.

Over the course of several years, he invited the others to collaborate and recorded at a variety of locations across the United States. Each artist wrote music to lyrics that inspired him and presented it to the collaborators for recording. The result is an album with diverse musical genres that has garnered positive reviews from critics... (continuer)

La Colonna Sonora è tra le prime musiche di Ennio Morricone, composta dopo le colonne sonore dei primi film di Sergio Leone. Non sono tra le più note o le più eseguite, probabilmente perché indissolubilmente legate ad un film che non concede evasioni di nessun tipo.
Il brano che proponiamo si chiama Rue de Thèbes : era il nome della strada, nella Casbah di Algeri, teatro del massacro del 10 agosto 1956. Il nome era stato dato dai Francesi dopo la colonizzazione iniziata nel 1830.... (continuer)

L’Illusionniste
Chanson française – L’Illusionniste – Marco Valdo M.I. – 2020
Scènes de la vie quotidienne au temps de La Guerre de Cent mille ans.
Histoire tirée du roman « Johnny et les Morts » – du moins de la traduction française de Patrick Couton de « Johnny and the Dead » de Terry Pratchett. (1995)
Dialogue Maïeutique
L’illusionniste
d’après Hieronymus Bosch, vers 1500
Par le grand Onos, dit Lucien l’âne, un illusionniste.
Oui, dit Marco Valdo M.I., un illusionniste. Ce n’est pas tous les jours qu’il y a une chanson pour vanter les mérites d’un illusionniste.
Pourtant, dit Lucien l’âne, souvent, ils les méritent ces mérites.
Surtout, continue Marco Valdo M.I., quand ce sont des illusionnistes émérites comme Stefano Vicenzi, un gars presque célèbre qu’on célèbre ici dans cette chanson. Comme on le sait, un illusionniste, au sens propre, est quelqu’un qui fait des tours de... (continuer)

La ballata è stata trovata ancora recentemente nella tradizione popolare di emigrazione francese quali Québec e Acadia.
Nel “Le Romancero populaire de la France”, (Parigi, 1904) George Doncieux scrive un’analisi critica del testo poetico comparando varie versioni (pg 215-232 cf) facendo risalire la ballata al XVI secolo.
Il tema della ballata rientra in una narrazione diffusa anche nella novellistica medievale e si basa sul triangolo moglie-marito-seduttore. Il... (continuer)
