Our Digger's Song
The Greenham Common Women's Peace Camp Songbook
Greenham Common Women's Peace Camp was a peace camp established to protest at nuclear weapon being sited at RAF Greenham Common in Berkshire, England. The camp began in September 1981 after a Welsh group called "Women for Life on Earth" arrived at Greenham to protest against the decision of the Government to allow cruise missiles to be based there.
On 1 April 1983, tens of thousands of protestors formed a 14 mile human chain from Greenham to the Aldermaston nuclear power station and the ordnance factory at Burghfield.
On 4 April 1984, the women were evicted from the Common by Newbury District Council. However by nightfall the women all returned to reform the camp.
The last missiles left the camp in 1991 but the camp remained in place until 2000 after protestors won the right to house a memorial on the site.

الهربة وين؟
[1983]
Arabic lyrics by Khaled
Urdu lyrics by Tabassum Siraj
(sung by Amar - Asian Underground)
Testo arabo di Khaled
Testo urdu di Tabassum Siraj
(cantato da Amar degli Asian Underground)
Agli inizi della sua carriera, Khaled, il "re del Rai" algerino famoso in tutto il mondo negli anni '80 e '90 per la canzone Aisha, diede voce alle frustrazioni della gioventù algerina. Siamo agli inizi della profonda crisi che prelude all'emergere dell'integralismo da una parte, e della chiusura della casta politico-militare al potere dall'altra. Il risultato è noto: la guerra civile, decine di migliaia di morti, a altrettante migliaia di emigrati. "Fuggire, ma dove?", si chiede Khaled in questa canzone una parte della quale, assai significativamente, fece tradurre in lingua urdu (la lingua ufficiale del Pakistan) per non voler limitare il problema all'Algeria; ed è una domanda che dovrebbe seriamente porsi la razzisteria di casa nostra, il giorno che si trovasse nelle stesse condizioni della gioventù algerina e di decine di altri paesi.

Gypsy punks: underdog world strike
Basically, it's an anti-war song- "that war/it never stops!" But it's more than that. He manages to dissect not only the roots of where war exists in our culture but also the helplessness of such understanding (nobody listens, nobody cares) while maintaining an advisory stature. Are we the only light there is? For ourselves we are. Hopeless? Not if you take care of your own.

Baby I'm A Soldier
The son of Egyptian immigrants, Kareem was born and raised in Ponca City, Oklahoma. He spent his childhood immersed in Western United States culture, attending Rodeos and Pow Wows, while simultaneously learning his family's roots in Islam and Arabic culture. With a degree in Chemical Engineering and recenlty finishing Law School, he's on the road promoting his new album, "Generous Peace".
His voice is robust, sexy, and All-American Country soundin'. I love him! His musical sound is open-chord guitar with a lot of grounded piano sound supporting it. His lyrics are not officially "muslim" or "nasheeds" (Islamic gospel songs), but the subject matter is definitely "Halal" (ie for you non-muslims reading this, Halal means religiously permissible, as in the subject matter is about living a good life, it's not about forbidden things and isn't leading the listener to sin - not about adultery, greed, alcohol, or other illicit/amoral activities).

We Shall Not Be Moved
Anonymous
[Tradizionale / Traditional]
Avvertenza. Come canzone integrante e basilare del Civil Rights Movement, We Shall Not Be Moved è stata inserita nel percorso "Razzismo e schiavitù negli Stati Uniti d'America". Il suo inserimento nell'altro percorso "Emigrazione e guerra del lavoro" è dovuto al suo uso come riconosciuta Labor song.
Notice.. As a song being a basic and integral part of the Civil Rights Movement, "We Shall Not Be Moved" has been included in the song itinerary "Racism and Slavery in the United States of America". Its inclusion in the other song itinerary "Emigration and Labor War" is due to its use as an acknowledged labor song. [AWS/CCG Staff]

אצלנו בחצר
Written and composed by Naomi Shemer
Testo e musica di Naomi Shemer
"In our Garden" (Hebrew: אצלנו בחצר, Etzlenu Behatzer) is a famous Israeli song written and composed by Naomi Shemer.
The song is about caring for those who are different, knowing the different cultures and languages, learning about the other, and the longing for Peace.
The song tells about a fictional garden where kids from all over the world appear and play together. Each one says "hello" in his own language. In the Hebrew language, "Hello" also means "Peace". As the lyrics say "Everyone who comes to our home has his own way to greet another".
"Hello" is said in the following different languages: Hebrew, Italian, French, Arabic, English, Chinese, Greek, Portuguese, Swahili, Hawaiian and Japanese.

Avrai
Questa invece è la versione ufficiale spagnola - abbastanza aderente all'originale italiano come senso globale del brano, ma non certo fedelissima su tutte le strofe - contenuta in un CD antologico di vari brani famosi di Baglioni in castigliano, intitolato "Siempre Aquì" (2006, Sony BMG)
Link Pagina
L'autrice della traduzione è Mila Ortiz.
Può sembrare curioso che nella traduzione ufficiale il titolo sia stato cambiato da "Avrai" (che si dice "tendràs") a "Vedrai" (che si dice appunto "veràs") ...
Se però solo si prova a sostituire l'uno all'altro vocabolo, ed a cantare la versione spagnola con il "tendràs", ci si renderà conto che così il ritornello, effettivamente, diventa un vero e proprio scioglilingua!:-)

Cesare
[2001]
Tragicomica storia d'amore del partigiano Cesare che commette delitto passionale perchè, proprio mentre è in missione, scopre che la sua bella lo tradisce ... e per di più con un fascista :-)
Lo scenario della vicenda - tratteggiato da Jannacci con pochi ed essenziali tocchi - è ad ogni modo precisamente quello della lotta partigiana, sicchè credo che anche questa surreale figura di "fidanzato deluso" rappresenti, a suo modo, una voce capace di unirsi al grande coro di CCG.
La canzone (composta da Enzo Jannacci e Paolo Jannacci) è stata incisa per la prima volta dal cantautore milanese nell'album "Come gli aeroplani" (2001, Ala Bianca):
La medesima incisione è stata da Jannacci inserita anche nel doppio CD antologico "The Best" (2006, Ala Bianca):
- testo tratto dal booklet del CD "Come gli aeroplani" (nelle parti parlate compaiono peraltro, nel disco, alcune modeste variazioni rispetto ad esso) -

Shoot High, Aim Low
[1987]
Lyrics by Jon Anderson and Trevor Rabin
Music by Yes
Testo di Jon Anderson e Trevor Rabin
Musica: Yes
Album: Big Generator
"Shoot High, Aim Low" is a song by Yes. It appears on the 1987 Big Generator album. The song appears to have never released as a single, but reached position #11 on the Mainstream Rock Tracks chart in the '80s. It appeared on every show on the Big Generator tour, but nowhere else to date.
The song, according to Jon Anderson's announcements prior to the song on many shows of the tour, the song is about war; specifically, a future in which mankind will live beyond war. In most of these announcements, Anderson explains that the "blue fields" mentioned in the first line are in Nicaragua - at the time the album was being worked on, a legal battle between the U.S. and Nicaragua had occurred over the U.S. aiding guerrillas against the Nicaraguan government.

I Mattafix hanno sin dai loro inzi manifestato un forte impegno sociale, in particolare a sostegno dei diritti umani in Darfur e in favore della cessazione delle ostilità. Sul sito ufficiale della band è possibile aderire alla campagna, sia facendo delle donazioni, sia inviando una lettera aperta alle Nazioni Unite.
"Living Darfur" (also known as "Living") is the first single from Mattafix's forthcoming album Rhythm and Hymns, released in 2007. The song already charted on the iTunes Store charts in several countries and is also released in the United States. The beginning of the song sounds similar to a part of Madonna's song "Mother and Father", taken from her 2004 release American Life.

Una nota relativa all'apertura della quarta strofa: "Léautaud chrétien détestable..."
Non avevo mai sentito parlare di questo Léautaud e così mi sono incuriosito e, visto che mi avete dato mano libera sui suggerimenti bibliografici, ho trovato una recensione a firma Bartolomeo Di Monaco ad un libro di Kazimierz Brandys, "Hotel D’Alsace e altri due indirizzi” (edizioni E/O, pagg. 152 e costa pure poco), che ci offre le biografie di tre grandi artisti che hanno tutti vissuto a Parigi: Oscar Wilde, André Paul Guillaume Gide e, appunto, Paul Léautaud. Il libro - che non ho letto ma forse leggerò - deve essere interessante. A proposito della parte dedicata a Léautaud, Di Monaco scrive:
"E Léautaud è personaggio a cui non mancano di certo gli attributi per suscitare la nostra attenzione. Considerato una leggenda dai francesi, nei suoi diari non risparmia nessun tipo di annotazioni, come questa... (Continues)

The River Is Flowing
The Greenham Common Women's Peace Camp Songbook
Greenham Common Women's Peace Camp was a peace camp established to protest at nuclear weapon being sited at RAF Greenham Common in Berkshire, England. The camp began in September 1981 after a Welsh group called "Women for Life on Earth" arrived at Greenham to protest against the decision of the Government to allow cruise missiles to be based there.
On 1 April 1983, tens of thousands of protestors formed a 14 mile human chain from Greenham to the Aldermaston nuclear power station and the ordnance factory at Burghfield.
On 4 April 1984, the women were evicted from the Common by Newbury District Council. However by nightfall the women all returned to reform the camp.
The last missiles left the camp in 1991 but the camp remained in place until 2000 after protestors won the right to house a memorial on the site.

Testo e musica di John Mayer
Released as a single from the album "Continuum"
Singolo estratto dall'album "Continuum"
"Waiting on the World to Change" is the first single released from John Mayer's 2006 studio album, Continuum. The song enjoyed general critical acclaim as well as commercial success as a single. For this song, Mayer won the Grammy for Best Male Pop Vocal Performance at the 49th Grammy Awards. Because of its theme of discontent and hope, it quickly came into demand in a variety of television programs, charity benefits, and other events.
"Waiting on the World to Change" contains a highly popular chord progression often found in blues, rock and soul songs, such as The Impressions's "People Get Ready" and Marvin Gaye's "Sexual Healing". The chord progression is "1-6m-4-1 - 5-6m-4-1" and, in the case of "Waiting on the World to Change",... (Continues)
