  • There's something happening here
    What it is ain't exactly clear
    There's a man with a gun over there
    Telling me I got to beware
    I think it's time we stop, children, what's that sound
    Everybody look what's going down
    There's battle lines being drawn
    Nobody's right if everybody's wrong
    Young people speaking their minds
    Getting so much resistance from behind
    It's time we stop, hey, what's that sound
    Everybody look what's going down
    What a field-day for the heat
    A thousand people in the street
    Singing songs and carrying signs
    Mostly say, hooray for our side
    It's s time we stop, hey, what's that sound
    Everybody look what's going down
    Paranoia strikes deep
    Into your life it will creep
    It starts when you're always afraid
    You step out of line, the man come and take you away
    We better stop, hey, what's that sound
    Everybody look what's going down
    Stop, hey, what's that sound
    Everybody look what's going down
    Stop, now, what's that sound
    Everybody look what's going down
    Stop, children, what's that sound
    Everybody look what's going down

    Many, many people believe that this song was written for the Vietnam War... but it wasn't. It was describing a street demonstration in Hollywood in 1966 when teenagers were protesting police brutality, cops throwing kids in jail just for being out after 10PM. How do I know that?? BECAUSE I WAS ONE OF THEM.

      Hah! Yes. I was only 16 at the time, and in the Sixties they had a law that anyone under 18 could not be out after 10PM. Can you imagine?? The the sheriffs locked me up in jail like a common criminal as I was walking home. In the prison bus ride to the Hollywood Sheriff station, one of the cops hit the guy sitting next to me in the face, his saliva hitting me in the face, just for fun. It was only then that I realized what we were protesting.

    This song reminds me of what was happening when I first entered the US returning from Viet Nam in 1970 in Oakland California. Green grass was very striking in appearance. A very haunting period in my life in trying to fit into society from a war zone that was largely ignored and not accepted by those we were trying to exist with. In fact, I just remember the song and not who performed it. It is sad to me that I recognize this now that I am over 75. Such a waste of life for all those years in the struggle of trying to understand what happened to me after returning. Very sad years.

      @@mariaconway4241 Neil Young's Ohio was written about Kent State about an event that happened on 5/4/1970. This is what inspired For What It's Worth: "Although "For What It's Worth" is often considered an anti-war song, Stephen Stills was inspired to write the song because of the Sunset Strip curfew riots in Los Angeles in November 1966, a series of early counterculture-era clashes that took place between police and young people on the Sunset Strip in Hollywood" Maria, that's why this song hits so hard it's was how young people were being attacked by our own Authoritarian Forces, and it was written and released shortly thereafter. Here's a good observation as to what the impact of this song was: "According to Timeline's Matt Reimann, the riots anticipated a cultural rift that only grew in the coming years. In this light, Bob Gibson, manager of the Byrds and the Mamas and the Papas reflected: "If you had to put your finger on an event that was a barometer of the tide turning, it would probably be the Sunset Strip riots."

Obviously the Vietnam War was beyond horrific, & this song was such a true "Breath of Fresh Air" & resonated so strong with so many because of how Real/Genuine ot is! These days, Music like this is rare, pretty much nonexistent! Obviously there are always very great / talented artists but there's just something special about certain People/Songs & the actual impact they made!
