dobro, napomenuli smo ovde neshto anti-ratnih pesama, to nije nikakva chudna pojava, puno je bendova i vrsta muzike apolitichno nastrojeno, setimo se samo hipika i pankera, rok je zasnovan na buntu, itd itd itd.
u nas, toga bash i nema puno. Azra je mnogo kritikovala drushtvo i rezhim u celini, EKV takodje, ali mnogo sofisticiranije, iz ugla obichnog choveka koji pati za mirom, ljubavlju i jedinstvom, ili recimo Kulturno Umetnichko Drushtvo Idijoti (
) i njihova legendarna "mir no alternative".
medjutim, retkost su celi opusi nekih bendova koji se bave politikom i ratom. tu se mozhe izdvojiti malo poznati album Iron Maidena, The X Factor, koji se bavi vijetnamskim i/ili zalivskim sindromom.
ali nikako, nikako se ne sme zaboraviti Pink Floyd koji je prosto ubadao u sushtinu kritikujucji belosvetski rezhim. bez izuzetaka.
pazite ovaj text, sa albuma The Final Cut (koji se uglavnom bavi traumama iz drugog svetskog rata):
The Fletcher Memorial Home
Take all your overgrown infants away somewhere
And build them a home, a little place of their own.
The Fletcher Memorial
Home for Incurable Tyrants and Kings.
And they can appear to themselves every day
On closed circuit T.V.
To make sure they're still real.
It's the only connection they feel.
"Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome, Reagan and Haig,
Mr. Begin and friend, Mrs. Thatcher, and Paisly,
"Hello Maggie!"
Mr. Brezhnev and party.
"Who's the bald chap?"
The ghost of McCarthy,
The memories of Nixon.
"Good-bye!"
And now, adding color, a group of anonymous latin-
American Meat packing glitterati.
Did they expect us to treat them with any respect?
They can polish their medals and sharpen their
Smiles, and amuse themselves playing games for awhile.
Boom boom, bang bang, lie down you're dead.
Safe in the permanent gaze of a cold glass eye
With their favorite toys
They'll be good girls and boys
In the Fletcher Memorial Home for colonial
Wasters of life and limb.
Is everyone in?
Are you having a nice time?
Now the final solution can be applied.
znachi, odvedite sve te politichare i gov.nare na jedno mesto, sagradite im veliku kucju u kojoj cje mocji da se igraju rata i pojavljuju na svojoj televiziji, a nas ostavite na miru
genijalno.
ili, na PULSE koncertu u sred Londona, Pink Floyd izvodi numere sa legendarnog The Dark Side of the Moon, a u toku jedne tematski slichne pesme ovoj gore, na velikom ekranu se redjaju slike svih mogucjih belosvetskih diktatora i demagoga: Klinton, Jeljcin, Sadam Husein, Nikson, pa chak i princ Charls i kraljica Elizabeta... dok pesma ide "the lunatic is in the hall".
i tako dalje...
