Sette lucciole perse nel grano

2020
"Sette lucciole perse nel grano", canzone dedicata ai martiri del XX giugno. Testo di Tullio Bugari e musica di Silvano Staffolani.
L'eccidio avvenne il 20 giugno 1944 nella contrada di campagna "Montecappone", alla periferia di Jesi (An) un mese prima della liberazione della città; le vittime furono sette giovani tra i 18 e i 25 anni, cinque di loro residenti nel vicino quartiere di "via Roma" (Armando e Luigi Angeloni, Francesco Cecchi, Alfredo Santinelli, Mario Saveri) e altri due militari lontanti dalle loro case, Enzo Carboni di Sant'Eufemia di Aspromente e Calogero Grasceffo di Agrigento.
Scrive lo storico locale Giuseppe Luconi nel libro “L’anno più lungo”:
“Sono all’incirca le sette di sera: in via Roma, all’altezza dell’edicola del Crocefisso, una trentina di giovani sono seduti avanti casa e discutono sui fatti del giorno. Improvvisamente arrivano tedeschi e fascisti,... (Continues)

- Fino ad ieri i bimbi li portava la cicogna, oggi li porta amazon.
- Fino a ieri alunni e maestre guardavano con preoccupazione il soffitto dell’aula che stava per crollare da un momento all’altro, oggi guardano con preoccupazione la connessione internet che sembra stia per crollare da un momento all’altro.
- Fino a ieri, dopo l’arresto, venivano ricoverati nell’infermeria del carcere, oggi vanno direttamente ai domiciliari.

Lyrics & music by Alun Parry
Album: When The Sunlight Shines
"I got involved with the Shrewsbury Pickets Justice Campaign during the Summer of 2009.
The campaign is the continued fight for an official pardon for the people targeted by the state during the National Building Strike in the 1970's.
Using the Conspiracy Act, never designed or used before to cover trade union activities, the bosses of the construction industry teamed up with the Tory Government to put our people in jail.

Another was a working class hero by the name of Des Warren (1937-2004).
Des had a terrible time in prison. They wouldn't give him his own spectacles, or shoes that fit.
They also gave him the “liquid cosh”. This is where the prison service administers drugs to inmates it considers awkward.

1968
The song "There in Viet Nam" (Bubbie Records # 1003) - a country music track that took an anti-war position. It placed a strong emphasis on the contrast between the voting age (21) and the draft age (18).
The narrator also expressed moral and religious opposition to the war, quoting the bible: "thou shall not kill". Yet, she also defended the previous generation's conflict as a just war for freedom: "his daddy fought in World War Two so that we can live in peace".
Released in Midwest City, Oklahoma. Written by B. Willow. Produced by Frank Dell.

The country anti-war track "Viet Nam" (Green Mountain # GM-101), by the obscure artists Pat Bohlman and Edwin Maderia, expressed the view that the war was harming the US, but it also noted the ongoing peace negotiations in Paris, which the song described as "doing well". The negotiations started in Paris in 1968, and were mainly conducted by Henry Kissinger (National Security Adviser to President Richard Nixon, 1969-1974) and his North Vietnamese counterpart Lê Ðức Thọ.

The idea struck when she experienced “cat calling that’s become okay again,” then expanded to include her thoughts on climate change and capitalism, “but it’s bigger than that,” Shires clarifies. “The song deals with fear and all the ways it discourages the expression of our individual identities. It’s about the walls we put up to protect ourselves and the way those walls become prisons.”

Versione di Rocco Rosignoli e Davide Giromini
Il due giugno in Italia è la Festa della Repubblica. Un giorno che è solitamente pieno della retorica patriottica che stomaca gli internazionalisti. Ma in fin dei conti, un motivo per festeggiare questo giorno ce l'abbiamo anche noi: è pur sempre il giorno in cui la nostra gente ha deciso di salutare per sempre la feccia regnante. Troppo tardi e troppo educatamente, ma l'ha fatto. Io e Davide oggi non festeggiamo la Repubblica, il nostro tricolore acido è una parodia: festeggiamo la cacciata di un Re.

Single The War Is Over / You Ain't Goin' Nowhere
Anti Vietnam war song "The War Is Over" (RCA Victor # 74-0309) referenced Richard Nixon, criticizing him for ignoring the protesters and prolonging the war. It also noted a protester being killed, which in the case of Michael James Brody Jr. won't make any difference because he will be reborn.

Title track dell'ultimo album di Curtis Mayfield
Scritta da Curtis Mayfield, Raimundo Thomas & Brian Fleming
Il 13 agosto 1990 Curtis Mayfield fu vittima di un gravissimo incidente. Durante un concerto a Brooklin l'impianto di illuminazione cadde sul palco colpendo il cantante e fratturandogli la colonna vertebrale. In seguito all'incidente Mayfield rimase paralizzato dal collo in giù. Nove anni dopo, a soli 57 anni, Mayfield se ne andava per le complicazioni dell'incidente e per il diabete di cui soffriva.
Ma nel 1996 era riuscito a incidere, pur con mille difficoltà, il suo ultimo album, che si apriva con questa canzone di speranza che rovesciava il significato del termine impiegato da Bush fin dal 1990 per indicare la Pax Americana, una pace che puzzava fin troppo di guerra. Nella canzone invece il nuovo ordine mondiale è un sinonimo di speranza dei milioni di persone... (Continues)

The song, released on the Los Angeles based label Rayco Records (R-526), founded by Floyd Ray, contained themes of the Vietnam War. It is narrated from the soldier's perspective, who tells us that "Uncle Sam is calling for me", and that he is resigned to leaving those he loves: "So I guess I'll have to go".

Double-sided Vietnam War single by Chicano soul group Six Pak, released on the Californian label Gordo (# 704), founded by Eddie Davis (a sub-label of his Rampart Records). Both tracks had a Latin Soul feel to it - of course, the label focused on Mexican Americans.
This formed part of the West Coast 'Eastside Sound' music scene. According to the president of Rampart Steven Chavez: "almost 50% of the artists from the East Side Sound era served in combat roles in Viet Nam, losing their innocence to a war in the prime of their youth, and returned to a changed American music scene that pretty much turned their back on them with the advent of new genres like hard rock, heavy metal, punk, disco and the like".

La terreur est un mal qui se répand par toute la Terre : on en a vu des noires, des brunes, des rouges, des bleues, des vertes, des safrans et bien sûr, des blanches.

Interpretata da Alberto Del Monte
Il testamento di Giovanni Ruffino
Questa versione di Salvo Lo Galbo, noto cultore di Brassens, è dedicata ad un grande interprete del cantautore francese, Giovanni Ruffino, musicista, polistrumentista e autore del pinerolese, nonchè cultore della montagna, morto qualche giorno fa cadendo sulla cresta tra Français Pelouxe e Pelvo, sullo spartiacque tra Val Chisone e Valle di Susa.
Ho conosciuto Giovanni Ruffino qualche anno fa prima di un concerto al circolo Stranamore di Pinerolo. Non l'ho mai reincontrato dopo di allora. Ricordo una persona curiosa, ruvida, che non provava nemmeno a metterti a tuo agio. Non era accomodante. Voleva conoscerti e sapere che tipo di persona eri, se avevi qualcosa da dirgli oppure no. Non era un tipo facile, forse per questo amava tanto Brassens. E poi era uno straordinario musicista. Io, sicuramente, non avevo molto da dirgli,... (Continues)

1971
Super Bad
The song "Peace" (Astroscope # AS-110) from 1972 took a general anti-war perspective, rather than specifically targeting Vietnam. The narrator commented that "I hear the people asking when will it end?" - probably a reference to the early 70s protest movement. It then made several religious / biblical references: "there was no evil in the garden" - the narrator suggested that the world needed to turn to love and peace. It featured on their 1971 album Super Bad (Trip Records # TLP-9510). Note that the group also released the Vietnam-related single There's Someone Waiting (Back Home) in 1969.

The second track "When I Come Home" was narrated from the perspective of "a soldier serving my country". He wondered why he had to kill other people. He hoped that when he returned to the US there would be a "lasting peace" in honour of those that had died.

Why Is It?

(1971?)
Double-sided anti-Vietnam War single, with the tracks "Why Is It?" and "When I Come Home" (A & G Records # AG 2041) - this label was almost certainly based in New York, with A & G standing for Al Grannum, a radio DJ for WLIB. His program in the late 1960s and early 1970s focused on R&B groups. This record was released under the name "Al Grannum & the Granulated Souls". There is a picture of Grannum in a 1971 article from the The Daily Register, based in Red Bank, New Jersey, in which Grannum was helping out at a community party. Is there a connection to Hugh Grannum, the Detroit based photographer? The record was also released in Jamaica - Why Is It? / When I Come Home (Dynamic Sounds # AG 2041).
So in the first track, "Why Is It?", the narrator, in spoken-word, said that he was "sick and tired" of hearing about children starving and "soldiers dying". He wanted to... (Continues)

Euthanasiez-moi !
![Euthanasiez-moi !](img/upl/Libert25C325A9.2BJe2Bne2Bveux2Bpas.png)
Je veux mourir, dit la centenaire.
Commentaire à la chanson Euthanasiez-moi !
Dialogue Maïeutique
Euthanasiez-moi, dit Lucien l’âne, est une chanson des plus utiles ; elle chante le choix de mourir, le droit à la liberté ; elle chante la liberté.
Car c’est une des libertés encore à conquérir que de pouvoir mourir à son heure, à l’heure que l’on choisit et de le faire dans de bonnes conditions.
Une ancienne institutrice, quelque part en France, a décidé de mourir. Elle a écrit un petit mot :
« Je ne veux pas être ranimée.
Je ne veux pas de soins.
H. Wuillemin
Le 27 mai.
Je cite ici une partie du texte de l’interview de Madame Wuillemin, relayée par France-info, intitulée :"Quand on souffre comme ça, ce n’est pas la peine de rester"
Quand on souffre comme ça, ce n'est pas la peine de rester Hélène, centenaire, en grève de la faim pour qu'on lui laisse le droit de mourir

Written “between the hours of 4am and around 7am” in a London hotel room and tagged #blacklivesmatter on SoundCloud, “How Many” is Miguel’s response to the July 2016 police shootings of Philando Castile and Alton Sterling. Miguel promised to update the demo every week until it’s finished.
