Hobodeluxe: actually Seeger and Guthrie were at OWS.


Their groupies were out of control!

Huh. She's always annoyed me as a commercially-packaged auto-tuned pop product.

Good for her. She moved up a few notches in my opinion.

/ I'm sure she'll be thrilled about my opinion

Don't get too excited. I'm sure she was just looking at a marketing opportunity.

The last few generations missed out on the protest music genes, it seems.

Rage Against the Machine screaming the same lyrics over and over doesn't cut it, alas.

How about Green Day's perpetual sinus condition?

Check out some Mason Jennings. Specifically, this song.

Im sure monday rightwing talk radio will have lots of good things to say about her.

Tymast: Im sure monday rightwing talk radio will have lots of good things to say about her.

Likely along the lines of "shut up and sing" while telling us what Frank Miller thinks of OWS.

Nah, they're out there, just not as famous as the protest music of olde.

Case and point: Youngblood Brass Band:

"However, Miley Cyrus, who turned 19 on Wednesday, celebrated her birthday in a party, which was hosted by her friend Kelly Osbourne at the Beacher's Madhouse inside the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel. She was joined by her father Billy, mother Tish Cyrus, sister Brandi, boyfriend Liam Hemsworth."

I wonder how much that cost. I suppose the 99%ers are good enough to have a song written about them, but ole' Miley is too busy having huge soirees thrown by her celebrity friends to actually show up at a flea party event.

The 1% owns Miley, whether it was Disney or currently Hollywood records. Her record company most likely threw the party and she will have to work off the cost with sales from her next album.

So....We should feel sorry for her?

I don't know -
"Kill the mean old bankers",
"Hey! Those mean old people only want to give me an entry level job" and
"No corporate money to pay for elections"

don't have the same ring as:

"War - HUH! - what is it good for" and
"Come on, people now, smile on your brother..."

Where do you think Fark Independents(tm) get their talking points?

Thankfully I have never heard the coont sing and would not recognize her if she was standing next to me in the checkout line.

Want a great female musician ? Check out Johnatha Brook ( spell ? ).

Wait until a couple of her records bomb and she ODs in a hotel room with a C list actor.

I like the guy who had the sign that said ...

This occupation kills fascists

Pro Zack: "Kill the mean old bankers",

don't have the same ring as:

Don't forget the hits "Brother, won't you pay my student loans", "I don't normally vote because it's uncool", "Women's Studies degrees deserve six figure salaries" and "Weed might be a crime but it's unjust law so therefore my marijuana arrest record makes me just like an African-American civil rights marcher in the 1960s"

'Party in the USA' seems like a song that the OWS crowd can rally around.

Well on the bright side she's probably a little bit better than the Right Brothers.

I would have enjoyed seeing the faces of the guys that sang "Bush Was Right" on the days after the 2006 and 2008 republican massacries.

Tag team trolling.

Bob16: I would have enjoyed seeing the faces of the guys that sang "Bush Was Right" on the days after the 2006 and 2008 republican massacries.

Wow, was that entire song just a mashup of melodies stolen from other songs? How the fark could they sell that and not be sued?

lololol.

See, it's funny, because we live in a society that requires everyone to acquire tens of thousands of dollars of debt in order to even apply for jobs which are no longer offered so that CEOs can increase the size of their benefits package, and people that have a grievance against this are just self-entitled douchebags like that veteran that got shot in the head by police, so their suffering is mockable.

Yeah, I remember you from before you started trolling, Shaggy. You used to have something to say and now you're just a worthless shiathead. Congratulations, I'm paying attention to you.

This and he fell for it the same way stupid pre-teens thought Avril Levine was 'punk'

Here we go again...

Pretty sure Dylan would have snubbed OWS, too.

Falcc: See, it's funny, because we live in a society that requires everyone to acquire tens of thousands of dollars of debt in order to even apply for jobs which are no longer offered so that CEOs can increase the size of their benefits package, and people that have a grievance against this are just self-entitled douchebags like that veteran that got shot in the head by police, so their suffering is mockable.

Everyone calls today's protesters selfish.

Protests in the 60s didn't end when the war ended. They ended when the DRAFT ended.

People were selfish then, too. You protest because your situation sucks. Which it does for an awful lot of people right now.

Dafatone: Everyone calls today's protesters selfish.

No, Only butthurt right-wing dipsh*ts do.

Well, I guess I'll need to remove another video from my youtube history.

I was hoping for something more like Negativland's The Bottom Line.

Falcc: See, it's funny, because we live in a society that requires everyone to acquire tens of thousands of dollars of debt in order to even apply for jobs which are no longer offered

see, it's funny because folks like me, who graduated during a recession, and have worked their way up from the exact same position that these guys are in, have spent the last fifteen years achieving what these assholes want handed to them.

whidbey: Here we go again...

Pretty sure Dylan would have snubbed OWS, too.

What a valuable and relevant observation.

"It's a liberty walk, walk. Say goodbye to the people who tied you up...Free yourself, slam the door, not a prisoner anymore."

So this is just the cheapest way possible to make and promote a video for a completely unrelated song.
No surprise.

'Shoot them like at Kent states' doesn't sound so bad now.

I think the reason that they didn't get sued had to do with the fact that nobody bought the song.

To be truthful I think one guy did a bulk purchase. Probably the same guy that buys those Regnery door stops.

LasersHurt: whidbey: Here we go again...

Dylan's best music had jack all to do with protesting. He was a pop star.

And it is "relevant" to note that people still have this 1963 version of him in mind when this stupid subject gets brought up. Again.

You sound old.

And what speaks even more highly of you is you did it all in spite of the fact that you're a self important asshole and living example of the Dunning-Kruger effect.

what poor decisions did he make? looks like he did well.
why do you say he is unskilled? he got an education and a job in a tough environment. sounds skilled to me.

whidbey: Dylan's best music had jack all to do with protesting. He was a pop star.

Those two things were not mutually exclusive in Dylan's day.

Nabb1: Good to see you, stranger.

Likewise! Howdy!
