    Someone on TikTok asked that I do a song from Les Misérables so here we are. I have always loved the emotion this song evokes which is probably obvious given my proclivity to all things related to rebellion against an economically and politically repressive state.
    Lyrics:
    Do you hear the people sing?
    Singing the song of angry men?
    It is the music of the people
    Who will not be slaves again!
    When the beating of your heart
    Echoes the beating of the drums
    There is a life about to start
    When tomorrow comes!
    Will you join in our crusade?
    Who will be strong and stand with me?
    Beyond the barricade
    Is there a world you long to see?
    Then join in the fight
    That will give you the right to be free!
    Do you hear the people sing?
    Singing the song of angry men?
    It is the music of the people
    Who will not be slaves again!
    When the beating of your heart
    Echoes the beating of the drums
    There is a life about to start
    When tomorrow comes!
    Will you give all you can give
    So that our banner may advance?
    Some will fall and some will live
    Will you stand up and take your chance?
    The blood of the martyrs
    Will water the meadows of France!
    Do you hear the people sing?
    Singing the song of angry men?
    It is the music of the people
    Who will not be slaves again!
    When the beating of your heart
    Echoes the beating of the drums
    There is a life about to start
    When tomorrow comes

    A bit stylistically different than your usual songs but I love it and it absolutely has the same heart of the labor songs.

      Also my grandma (the Irish link to Henry Joy, my song) is not very well (multiplying chronic issues) and I would love to be able to show one of the three remaining McCrackens this cover before they all pass away. There were 13.
