The Democrat Republican Switcheroo

I wrote this song a couple years ago. It's probably still relevant: Back in 1854 The country was at the brink of war The Kansas-Nebraska Act Made sure slav’ry stayed intact The Whig Party had dropped dead flat Killed off by the Democrats And so a new party was planned They were called Republicans The Democrat Republican Switcheroo The Democrat Republican Switcheroo They changed, they changed An...

PEOPLE CHANGE Keep the tracks before the train Never turn your back on rain Everything will stay the same Until you change Under stacks of fallen fame Known by six or seven names When the proud attack the tame And shame the vain People change People change People change Take me to the wooden shed With a pitchfork stone and bed There’s a whole lot being said That’s not done When you’re dead and ...
“The Impossible Dream” (Jacques Brel Style) sung by Jim Knable
Просмотров 964 месяца назад
As a long time fan of Jacques Brel, who sang this song in Belgian French, I wanted do my version of his version in English. This is a rough draft in which I think I hit most of the right notes with probably the right chords. Music by Mitch Leigh, with lyrics written by Joe Darion, from the 1965 Broadway musical Man of La Mancha. Photo of Jacques Brel in the public domain.

After years of messing around with the arrangement for this song, we tried stripping it down to how it was supposed to go to begin with and that's how we built the song up for eventual studio recording. COMING IN FALL 2024!

I voice dictated some words while driving, edited them into a song while sitting in the car to wait out the street cleaner (using a ukulele), and then recorded this on the guitar that was handy. Fresh from today! Here are the lyrics: I can’t get down to Nashville, I got some kids who are living here. If I could take them with me, I’d go there every year. I can’t get out to LA to make a million ...

“Hello, Stranger” the A.P. Carter Traditional sung by Jim Knable
Просмотров 96Год назад
I had a dream this morning that I was looking for records at a bookstore and I found an old one with some folk songs on it and I recognized “Hello Stranger”-usually attributed to A.P. Carter. I love the version the Carter Family sings, but I was hearing it slightly differently, so I thought I’d try recording it for you all who like traditional songs. It helped that my voice was extra deep this ...
"Divide & Unify" a song by Jim Knable

Inspired by the recent reaction to a recording I made of "John Brown's Body," I thought it might be time to put this newer song out into the world in this form. Just me singing it in front of some pots and pans. I wrote the song after I realized that the engine of America is dividing and unifying (and dividing and unifying and dividing and...)

“We’ve Had It Worse” a song by Jim Knable except for the end
HIS SOUL IS MARCHING ON
John brown was offered the opportunity to plead insanity by his lawyer. He refused, for John brown was not insane.
Just found your channel--really enjoying it
Thanks so much. I checked out your videos. The talent brims over! Let's keep making stuff!
A song glorifying a traitor who failed to get a following among neither the slaves nor the abolitionists.
The only traitors were the ones who hanged him.
Sounds like the words of someone who glorifies slavers.
Cuck.
The song of a man who fought for the right thing even while those that agreed stared and watched
On this day in 1859 John Brown did nothing wrong.
New music video from the first single from my bands fifth album. John Brown would approve. Hope you do too! ruclips.net/video/dxNrUc_GC9E/видео.htmlfeature=shared
It is important to remember that slavery still exists in America, and until all of it is purged; be it penal, wage or chattel, the United States remains a settler-colonial apartheid state and remains with its hideous blot stained deeply in its soul from its creation.
That's some mighty fine a-pickin' and a-singin'
John would like how people are getting along better now and that there's interracial marriage.😊😊
Unions are cartels for the commodity of labor. When business owners conspire to fix prices or product quality, this is rightly condemned as rent-seeking behavior, and punished by law. When workers in a particular industry do the same thing, they are cheered on by those who would steal from the productive to distribute to wastrels. Unions oppose innovation, increase bureaucracy, and thus increase prices and lower the quality of goods and services provided to consumers. It is as true now as in Adam Smith's time: a truly free market is the greatest driver of human prosperity, and the freer the market, the richer the country.
While strategically and tactically flawed, his raid sent fear through the white south and precipitated the Civil War and Emancipation. Read the book Midnight Rising for the whole story.
so beautiful! thank you!
good song
i ask myself almost everyday, what would john brown do and i think he would be a pro palestine king
John Brown's only sin was poor strategy.
Hey no lie that is my great great grandpa
That's amazing for everyone here to hear. How do you feel about this ancestral connection to John Brown? Does your family talk about him a lot? What do they say?
@@jimknable8377 me and my dad just talk about him and I don’t know much about him but he’s very interesting
W gramps!
Inspired by @kandymich4861 I just had to post this run down of how the Republican party was formed and then basically traded places with the Democratic party. It's a little more complicated and I'm sure you'll tell me how, but here it is in about 170 years of song form. I wrote every single of word of it, and the music, too. So please give me some credit if you make some weird AI version of it or something. Thanks for listening! ruclips.net/video/ragIDikI5d8/видео.html
YO THIS SLAPS
And this guy was a Republican? This song goes completely against how the history is now being told of the Republicans. Makes you wonder when this song will be claimed by the other side like everything else they have claimed to be theirs.
The Republican party at the time of Lincoln was completely the opposite of what it is now. Same for the Democratic Party. I’m sure about 10 other people will weigh on on this, but I think the flip started gradually after Reconstruction and the Tilden compromise (arguably what ended the Reconstruction) and got solidified with FDR’s New Deal. Dixiecrats aged out, Reagan tapped into the Evangelical spirit, and the rest just keeps getting weirder. I am heartened by looking at these comments, and seeing what a wide spectrum of political extremists and moderates all seem to embrace some aspect of John Brown. It’s like we’re at the memorial service for our crazy friend who somehow represented the extremes of what we each fantasize about doing in our own hopefully less violent ways.

Electricians John Brown's Republican party turned into the new Democrats the Dixiecrats took over the Republicans
it's truly amazing how someone can live in America where they only had two parties for the past century and a half or so, have full access to the internet and yet know absolutely fuck all about the history of those two parties and their policies. Incredible, your determination to never learn anything about your nation is admirable.
@@ДмитроПрищепа-д3я I’m not from the US
"John Brown is John the Baptist of the Christ we are to see" goes hard. People have invoked the name of Christ for just about every cause in history but this was probably the first time he would have actually agreed with it.
Great job!!!
This is by far my favorite version of this song. The full lyrics are much more impactful
What bootlicker wrote this...
someone who believed in freedom
No confederates
I would argue freeing slaves is the opposite of a bootlicker

How come this isn't HD video and perfect audio?
Go Visit the National Civil War Museum in Harrisburg PA then listen to this knowing how many people died and how divided the country was and is now. It’s Erie, words cannot describe it.
Had Brown been a Southron, all the drug-addled, degenerate neo-Lincolnite leftists of today would doubtless slag him off as a “religious fundamentalist terrorist”. They would make all sorts of baseless judgments about his mental health, scraping the bottom of the excuse barrel to brand him some kind of evil sociopath. But because he, through violent extremism, attacked a society and a people they despise, he is blindly hailed as some kind of heroic vigilante. They detest Christianity with a passion, but, you know, John Brown gets a “cool guy” pass…cuz, you know, mUh rAyCiZm n’ stuff. Deo Vindice God Save the Southland ⚔️✝️⚔️

No, just no, cope harder traitor.
just a quick question, buddy. Are you, by any chance, clinically insane? Just wondering.
Lies. Even Lincoln, friend of the globalist, admitted this wasn't the reason for the war. It was about globalist usurpation of States' sovereign rights, and just look at where we are now. "If I could save the Union without freeing any slave I would do it, and if I could save it by freeing all the slaves I would do it; and if I could save it by freeing some and leaving others alone I would also do that. What I do about slavery, and the colored race, I do because I believe it helps to save the Union; and what I forbear, I forbear because I do not believe it would help to save the Union."
Bro have you watched checkmate Lincolnites it disproves that fact
Old John Brown’s body lies moldering in the grave, While weep the sons of bondage whom he ventured all to save; But tho he lost his life while struggling for the slave, His soul is marching on. John Brown was a hero, undaunted, true and brave, And Kansas knows his valor when he fought her rights to save; Now, tho the grass grows green above his grave, His soul is marching on. He captured Harper’s Ferry, with his nineteen men so few, And frightened "Old Virginny" till she trembled thru and thru; They hung him for a traitor, themselves the traitor crew, But his soul is marching on. John Brown was John the Baptist of the Christ we are to see, Christ who of the bondmen shall the Liberator be, And soon thruout the Sunny South the slaves shall all be free, For his soul is marching on. The conflict that he heralded he looks from heaven to view, On the army of the Union with its flag red, white and blue. And heaven shall ring with anthems o’er the deed they mean to do, For his soul is marching on. Ye soldiers of Freedom, then strike, while strike ye may, The death blow of oppression in a better time and way, For the dawn of old John Brown has brightened into day, And his soul is marching on.
had John brown been one of the founding fathers, this nation would have been so much different, and so much better.
Wildly idealistic
He did the things he did out of religious zeal and a desire for status, not selflessness. That's not exactly founding father material. May I also remind you, he led a bloody massacre if innocents in Kansas.

Just wanted to say ever since I found this version of John Browns body it has been my favorite (to the point I will hear other renditions and be like "I want the other words!")
Моя попытка русского перевода. Джон Браун уж весь истлел, рассыпался во прах, Покинув рабства сыновей в колодках и слезах. За чёрный люд погиб, но всё ж врагам на страх Шаг держит старый Джон. Слава, слава, аллилуйя! Шаг держит старый Джон. Джон Браун верен клятве и доблестный герой, Канзас тому свидетель: за права стоял горой. Пусть камень могильный увит травой, Но путь расчистил Джон. Слава, слава, аллилуйя! Но путь расчистил Джон. Он занял Харперс Ферри с девятнадцатью людьми, Плантаторы Виргиньи им напуганы вельми. Повешен, как предатель жесткосердыми зверьми, Рукой иуды Джон. Слава, слава, аллилуйя! Рукой иуды Джон. Джон Браун суть Предтеча, возвестил приход Христов. «Се грядёт Спаситель, Тот, кто родом из рабов. Лишится вскоре сонный Юг невольничьих оков!» - Пророчил вещий Джон. Слава, слава, аллилуйя! Пророчил вещий Джон. С тех пор, как вызов брошен, закипел кровавый бой, Ввысь взметнулся флаг Союза красно-бело-голубой, А гимн звучит над битвою ликующей трубой: Зовёт к свободе Джон! Слава, слава, аллилуйя! Зовёт к свободе Джон! О, воины свободы! Пока достанет сил, На схватку с угнетеньем юных душ направьте пыл! Угасая, старый Браун сердца воспламенил, В них вечно бьётся Джон! Слава, слава, аллилуйя! В них вечно бьётся Джон!
Remember, on May 24-25 1856, John Brown and his sons did nothing wrong at 3 cabins along the Pottawatomie creek.
Я впервые прочитал про Джона Брауна в школьном учебнике и с тех пор люблю его. Да здравствует Свобода! Долой рабство!
Отлично сказано! Не сочтите нескромным мой интерес: в школьном учебнике какой страны и когда именно вы о нём прочли?

This song has always been my "go too" at Karaoke. Everbody knows and loves it and the lyrics are so easy to remember and belt out effectively ( even when ive had far too much to drink 🤫)
Anybody else thought he was bill Nye?
Assuming you mean the picture of John Brown, not me. Either way, it’s a fascinating observation.
Bill nye the anti slavery guy.
confederates are degenerate vermin. John Brown was a hero. Rabid dogs get put down
I used to sing this and civil war songs standing on the Kop at Anfield; obviously with changed lyrics
