  1. NEW Song – Treći Maj (The Third of May)

    May 3, 2023 refers to the Vladislav Ribnikar school shooting in Belgrade, Serbia, where a 13-year-old student killed nine students and a school security guard; six others were injured. The tragedy shocked Serbia and was followed by public mourning, protests, and a government disarmament campaign.

    Lyrics:

    Treći Maj (The Third of May)

    Verse 1
    Na zidu piše: Predaj oružje
    The wall cannot carry all the grief.
    A city holds its breath in silence,
    counting names like broken beads.

    Schoolyard bells and empty hallways,
    flowers trembling in the rain,
    the Spirit cries in a language
    that nobody can explain.

    Chorus
    Predaj oružje — lay it down, lay it down.
    So many children buried in this town.
    Razgovarajte sa decom — hear them now, hear them now
    at the altars where we bow.

    Verse 2
    Na vratima piše: Razgovarajte sa decom
    speak to your children while they’re near.
    Ask what shadows walk beside them,
    where their bright joy turns to fear.

    Not every wound is seen by daylight,
    silent tears without a sound.
    Some are present in the classroom
    while their hearts are underground.

    Chorus
    Predaj oružje — lay it down, lay it down.
    Too many children buried in this town.
    Razgovarajte sa decom — hear them now, hear them now
    at the altars where we bow.

    Bridge
    If we only shout after thunder,
    if we only weep after the flames,
    then the stones will learn our prayers
    where we’ve carved our children’s names.

    So open every locked-up room,
    open every frightened hand.
    Let the living be our shrine,
    let compassion rule the land.

    Final Chorus
    Predaj oružje — lay it down, lay it down.
    Let no more hatred wear a crown.
    Razgovarajte sa decom — hear them say, hear them say.
    Let love be our king today.

    Outro
    Na zidu piše: Predaj oružje.
    Na srcu piše: hear their quiet call.
    Razgovarajte sa decom —
    Talk to your children.
    Talk to them all.

    8 Millionen Menschen sind im Rahmen der No-Kings-Proteste in den USA auf die Straße gegangen.
    Auch die große Bette Midler hat sich zu Wort gemeldet. Sie covert einen Protestsong von Woody Guthrie mit einem aktualisierten Text. Den Optimismus, der in dem Lied mitschwingt, könnte Deutschland auch gut gebrauchen.

  6. "Blowin' in the Wind" is a song written by Bob Dylan in 1962. It was released as a #single and included on his album #TheFreewheelinBobDylan in 1963. It has been described as a #protestSong and poses a series of #rhetoricalQuestions about peace, war, and freedom. The refrain "The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind" has been described as "impenetrably ambiguous: either the answer is so obvious it is right in your face, or the answer is as intangible as the wind".

    Yes, it’s a great piece of footage, all so young & beautiful, as you say. Someone else noted that the song was, sadly, still relevant & added a contemporary lyric: “next step Teh’ran” ☹️😢

  9. Ani DiFranco sings Pete Seeger's song, "My Name Is Lisa Kalvelage"

    "And perhaps I can tell my children six
    And later on their own children
    That at least in the future they need not be silent
    When they are asked, 'Where was your mother, when?'"

  10. RE: oldfriends.live/@paul/11617975

    What a pack of scumbags, racists & thieves, I hope Afroman wins his suit:
    “deputies sued him for turning their unfounded raid on his home into viral music videos that exposed their faces and actions when he used his security camera footage of the raid.”

    Just finished watching this past weekend's broadcast of thr #SundayMorning program on #CBS & watched profiles about 3 people that I had never heard of before:

    1) The #IndieMusic singer & songwriter #JeffTweedy.

    2) The #Podcaster & so-called #LifeCoach #MelRobbins

    And 3) the #ProtestSong singer & songwriter

Then I rewrote it into song-shape, to be SUNG (I hope to have tune in a day or 2). If of use to my friends in the US or beyond, with all love please use it 1/5
