A sciambere [*]: Hanno fatto un deserto e lo hanno chiamato pace

Di anni ne avevo compiuti appena 20 da qualche settimana e appresi in una mattina di agosto, dalla radio, che i carri armati dell'Unione Sovietica, allora governata proprio da un ucraino (Leonid Breznev), avevano invaso la Cecoslovacchia che Alexander Dubcek e Josif Svoboda (Nomen omen - in lingua ceka svoboda è "libertà") stavano traghettando dal comunismo moscovita - quello in cui il KGB allevava dei mascalzoni di stato come Putin - verso il cosiddetto "socialismo dal volto umano", in sintonia con le idee pluraliste di quello che pochi anni dopo sarebbe stato chiamato l'"eurocomunismo" di Santiago Carrillo, George Marchais e, soprattutto Enrico Berlinguer.

War in Viet Nam as seen from Italy and from the rest of the world
Voci dal Vietnam
1973
Il brano nasce alla fine della lunghissima guerra fra i partigiani vietnamiti e l’esercito americano.
Nella canzone il cantautore torinese Toni Asquino si sofferma su quello che rimane dopo gli orrori e la quasi totale distruzione della nazione vietnamita, che coinvolse anche le nazioni di Laos e Cambogia. Si presume che alla fine del conflitto si contarono dai 4 ai 5 milioni di morti vietnamiti e 200.000 americani. Rimasero distrutte intere città e numerosi villaggi furono interamente rasi al suolo. Durante tutto il conflitto, negli Stati Uniti ci furono numerosissime contestazioni con incidenti e arresti fra i quali anche famosi artisti, sportivi, personaggi noti e gente comune.
La canzone, nota tra i pacifisti dell’epoca, venne trasmessa per un po’ anche su scala nazionale.

Canzone sarcastica cantata in inglese del cantante belga (di Antwerp) Ferre Grignard. Un hippie eccentrico, Grignard provò a trasferirsi negli USA ma fu espulso in quanto anarchico. Negli anni '70 visse in una sorta di comune hippie. Dimenticato dai fan e con gravi problemi economici, morì ancora giovane di cancro nel 1982.

Hey America America
1972
Testo incompleto
The obscure psychedelic rock group Children of the Morning, formed in Italy, released the song "Hey America, America" which criticised the US government for the Kent State killings.
Shel Shapiro, who led the group, composed the song. He had previously played with the British beat group The Rokes (1950s-60s). The narrator questioned the validity / plausibility of the argument that the National Guard fired in self defense: "government pretends that it was self defense". The lyrics then suggested that the killings harmed the reputation of the US: "America you're fucking up", which could have repercussions: "hey America don't push you luck".
The song ended with a general anti-war message, complaining that the "war in Vietnam continues", in which the soldiers "kill woman and children".

The Jamaicans With Tommy McCook – Peace And Love
The song "Peace and Love" (Treasure Isle Records # TI-7037) is a collaboration between The Jamaicans (a rocksteady group formed in 1966 in Jamaica) and Tommy McCook (reggae artist, born 3 March 1927, La Habana, Ciudad de La Habana, Cuba, died 5 May 1998, Atlanta, Georgia, USA).
It took a strong anti-war position, saying that the leaders were focused on war, but that the "people of the world" want "love peace and love". It pleaded with the government: "don't send my brothers to Vietnam", and looked at the impact on families: "don't let...mothers mourn, don't let my father know the pain". Released in Kingston, Jamaica.

I’m an Australian – 20 Years Old
The song "I'm an Australian – 20 Years Old" also featured in The Vietnam Songbook, although no recording from the time has been found yet. The song took a comedic approach to a 21 year old caught-up in major court case for resisting the draft. It started out with the man going down to the barracks, lighting a cigarette, and his "call-up papers accidently caught on fire". Misinterpreted as a deliberate act, the "C.N.D. embraced me" - a reference to the protest group the Committee for Nuclear Disarmament, while the other side "called me a traitor".

21st Birthday
Tex Morton, a country artist born Robert William Lane on 30 August 1916 in Nelson, New Zealand. He died 23 July 1983 in Sydney, NSW, Australia. He released several records under the nickname The Yodelling Boundary Rider.
The song "21st Birthday" dealt with the Vietnam War, looking at the home front perspective, of the parents of a soldier killed in action (K.I.A.). The song was released in 1967 on single: 21st Birthday (Columbia (EMI) # DO-4785).
The song told of the soldier's friends arriving at his parents house to celebrate his 21st birthday, unaware of what had happened. A closer look at the shelf with letters and "you'll see a draft card... the nice letter and the medal they sent". The father concluded that: "our boy full of love has died now of hate" - which perhaps leans towards the anti-war side of the debate.

The S.S. Vancouver
Mansell composed the song "The S.S. Vancouver", although no recording has been identified at the moment. The lyrics of this song featured in The Vietnam Songbook published in 1969, and compiled by Barbara Dane and Irwin Silber (founders of Paredon Records) - containing 100+ Vietnam War protest songs, 9 of which came from Australia & New Zealand.
According to the notes in the book:
"this song was written in 1965 on the arrival of the U.S.S. Vancouver in Australia".
The title dropped the "U", leaving just the "S.S.", a reference to the infamous Nazi paramilitary group. The U.S.S. Vancouver (LPD-2) was an amphibious transport dock, commissioned on 11 May 1963, and deployed at various point in the Vietnam War. In April, 1965, it departed Huế, South Vietnam, having off-loaded marines there. It arrived in Sydney on 1 May 1965, taking part in the The Battle of the Coral Sea commemoration,... (Continues)

It's On

Incisa da Gary Shearston e da Trevor Lucas
Incisa da Gary Shearston e da Trevor Lucas
On this single, featured the anti-war song "It's On" (CBS # BA-221124), composed by Don Henderson, who wrote many Vietnam War-related songs, discussed below.
While the Vietnam conflict was well underway in 1964, very few Australians participated until the Menzies government upgraded its commitment in April 1965 - so this is more of a Vietnam-era protest song, not specifically mentioning the conflict, but a representation of the early 60s anti-war movement in Australia. The lyrics revolved around the absurdity of conflict as two people get into a fight: "reason and logic are gone, winning the fight won't prove that you're right". The final verse criticised governments / politicians that "save on education and spend on defence".
Melbourne artist Trevor Lucas also recorded a version, on his 1966 album Overlander, and Raymond Crooke, on his YouTube channel.

Twenty Summers
(1965)
Album: Australian Broadside
Lyrics by Mona Brand
Music by Gary Shearston
According to the album notes, written by Edgar Walter (1965), the first song "Twenty Summers" was composed by Mona Brand: "Twenty Summers: Mona Brand's words were written as a comment on the recent decision to conscript young Australians for military service overseas. But they are a protest not so much against that decision in itself, as against all warfare.
The melody is by Gary Shearston".
Mona Brand was a theatre playwright, who taught English in Hanoi with her husband Len Fox in the 1950s.
It told the story of a young man, 20 years old, drafted to war: "Johnny is called for a soldier today". His father died in a previous war: "rain in the jungle when Johnny was born, the day that his father lay dying at dawn".

Al Folk Festival 1 di Torino. l'autore ascoltò una lunga canzone cantata dalle mondine, imperniata su motivi politici di attualità.
Una delle strofe parlava della guerra nel Vietnam con il sarcasmo e la violenza caratteristici dell'espressività popolare.
Si adottò perciò quello spunto e la melodia stessa che è tipica dell'area settentrionale ma più ancora del canto di risaia (si veda La tradotta che parte da Novara e Vi ricordate quel 18 aprile)

Tune: Traditional (Johnny Lad)
The song was a reference to the US-made F-111c fighter bomber. The Australian government ordered a number, for the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) in 1963. However, the final version of the aircraft were not delivered until 1973, because of technical problems, which included unexplained loses during its use in the Vietnam War in the late 60s and early 70s - or as said in the chorus of this song: "it is a lovely plane... it's a pity that it isn't safe to take it off the ground".
The narrator started with the Australian Prime Minister, Robert Menzies, pondering that "our Canberra bombers are...old as hell". He called up "Uncle Sammy" to purchase planes, to "scare some Asians".
The narrator noted that the government "sent some off to Vietnam" to "wipe out all the Viet Cong" - a reference to the "VC" - the National Liberation Front of... (Continues)

Song Itineraries:
War in Viet Nam as seen from Italy and from the rest of the world
Child of Vietnam
1970
Roger Thwaites, Australian contemporary folk artist, composed and released the song "Child of Vietnam" (Columbia (EMI) # SOEX-9698), which started off with gunfire sound-effects, and took an anti-war perspective. The back of the LP said: "Child of Vietnam is the story of a little girl and a soldier in the land of tears, your land, child of Vietnam". Narrated from the perspective of the soldier, who said "how can I help her", as the child rests "on the bloody ground", and the "streets full of pain". It concluded by calling on people to "help...around the world" to stop the war and suffering, for the "helpless children of Vietnam".

Canción para un niño de Viet Nam
Political activist and musician Judith Reyes, born 22 March 1924, in Ciudad Madero, Tamaulipas, Mexico, she died on 27 December 1988. The track "Cancion para un niño de Vietnam", which means "Song for a Child From Vietnam" takes an anti-war position, looking at the Vietnamese perspective, refering to the US soldiers that arrived from a distant land "that wounds and kills and burns your rice paddies". The narrator strongly condemned the American presence: "the gringo is the shame of humanity, if the gringo leaves you will see me happy".
The back of the picture sleeve expressed anti-American, anti-imperialist sentiment, showing solidarity with Vietnam and countries across Central and South America:
"the voice and the word of each verse of Judith Reyes are the instrument of the anxieties and urgent needs for justice, peace and freedom of the people of Mexico whom she loves so much. And,... (Continues)

Amour dans le motu
(2013)
Album Psycho Tropical Berlin
Nel bellissimo videoclip il brano è unito allo strumentale Witchcraft
Il soldato giace a terra, coperto di sabbia e polvere. La corsa è una questione di vita e di morte, non ci sono regole. Tutto quello che può fare è piegarsi e correre, sparare colpi mentre i proiettili lo sfiorano con un fischio fortissimo. Sente il rumore di una bomba al napalm che si avvicina ma mentre corre più veloce, viene gettato a terra dall'esplosione. Striscia via, si fa spazio tra i cadaveri in cerca di un riparo. Nemici o fratelli, non riesce a distinguerli, ma non è più importante perché tutto ciò che può vedere è il volto della morte.
Quando trova riparo, vuole solo accendersi una sigaretta. Tira fuori il suo Zippo. "Non sta a noi fare o morire, dobbiamo fumare e sballarci." L'incisione in metallo sul suo accendino riflette i suoi pensieri più intimi. L'assurdità di questa... (Continues)

Si tratta del doppiaggio della sequenza Opening Speech dal film Full Metal Jacket in lingua siciliana, dialetto catanese. L’autore è in arte Davidekyo , doppiatore secondo un’autodefinizione minimalista. A nostro avviso ha realizzato qualcosa di memorabile, una reinterpretazione di una sequenza che è una delle denuncie più forti delle aberrazioni del militarismo, non soltanto storiche, anche ontologiche. La consideriamo un’opera autonoma anche se non rifinita di tutto punto com’è nella natura di un divertissement, ma qui siamo almeno due spanne oltre il farsesco. Dovessimo azzardare un’etichetta, definiremmo Davidekyo un cuntastorie multimediale... (Continues)
