    One of my absolute favorite Bragg songs. jft96. -John
    this was uploaded on an interesting day for the Sun, in a curious coincidence.

      Got on twitter for the first time in a while. Saw the link, and usually I wouldn't click it, but something told me to. Now I'm just here, listening, feeling. Not a lot of things make me believe in fate, but this is certainly one of the few.

      Lucy Knowles good on you. the world needs more young people ready to stand up for what they believe in. if you were my daughter I'd be proud. make sure not to censor the "bullshit" part of the lyrics.

    KELVIN MACKENZIE will never be forgotten for the shite he put in the SUN, when the l.f.c. fans did all they could to help the fallen even knocking on doors around the ground asking 4 ambulances to be called, JUSTICE will come and rightly so the families can get answers to the loved ones they lost.

    This is about the power of the public to boycott those papers which offend the dignity of others.
    'Scousers never buy the sun' is an example of the power of the people over the press. An example we should follow.

    こういう歌を発表し、
    勇気をもって訴え続ける
    ビリーのようなシンガーと
    この曲の意味をちゃんと受け取める
    リスナーがいるイギリスの社会と
    体制と馴れ合い
    政府寄りの嘘ばかりを垂れ流すメディアと
    それを批判するシンガーさえいない
    日本、メディアや政府を批判するものを
    バッシングするばかりの
    我が国との差を思います。

  • @Slapbass13
    @Slapbass13 12 лет назад +1

    I disagree. The lyrics embody straight talking: at a time of PR bullshit from the papers and the government alike, Billy Bragg cuts through it all. Phone hacking and aggressive journalism is wrong, and its up to everyone to change that.
    Being able to capture the national mood is a real talent: Bragg is proof that this is as true today as it was in the eighties.

    Not a big BB fan, but I agree with this. Why do so many working class people buy this Tory Rag. It has a reading level of 12. More a Brexiteers type of paper. Their reading level too.

    Great lyrics, and a fine Dylanesque instrumental sound. Would like the title/message/lyrics broadened to the Daily Express, Mail, and Telegraph... and for all the publishers, purveyers, and buyers of these rags to stop immediately - for the sake of our society... Some hope..!
