rage against the machine
No Shelter The main attraction - distraction got ya number than nnumber than numb Empty ya pockets son; they got you thinkin that What ya need is what they sellin Make you think that buyin is rebellin >From the theaters to malls on every shore Tha thin line between entertainment and war The frontline is everywhere, there be no shelter here Speilberg the nightmare works so push it far Amistad was a whip, the truth was feathered and tarred Memory erased, burned and scarred Trade in ya history for a VCR Cinema, simulated life, ill drama Fourth Reich culture - Americana Chained to the dream they got ya searchin for Tha thin line between entertainment and war There be no shelter here Tha frontline is everywhere Hospitals not profit full Yet market bulls got pockets full To advertise some hip disguise View tha world from American eyes Tha poor adore keep fiendin for more Tha thin line between entertainment and war They fix the need, develop the taste Buy their products or get laid to waste Coca-Cola is back in the veins of Saigon And Rambo too, he got a dope pair of Nikes on And Godzilla pure mutha****in filler To keep ya eyes off the real killer Cinema, simulated life, ill drama Fourth Reich culture - Americana Chained to the dream they got ya searchin for Tha thin line between entertainment and war American eyes, American eyes.... View the world from American eyes Bury the past, rob us blind And leave nothin behind Just stare Relive the nightmare

iron maiden
Brave New World (Murray/Harris/Dickinson) Dying Swans twisted wings Beauty not needed here Lost my love, lost my life In this garden of fear I have seen many things In a lifetime alone Mother love is no more Bring this savage back home Wilderness house of pain Makes no sense of it all Close my mind dull this brain Messiah before his fall What you see is not real Those who know will not tell All is lost sold your soul In this brave new world A brave new world In a brave new world A brave new world In a brave new world Dragon Kings Dying Queens Where is salvation now Lost my life lost my dreams Rip the bones from my flesh Silent screams laughing here Dying to tell you the truth You are planned you are damned In this Brave new world A brave new world In a brave new world A brave new world In a brave new world

David Bowie... again.
Bombers. Chorus. All clear wail the sirens Sunshine on the wasteland Old man sitting in the white sand Think we're in for a big surprise Right between the eyes Seemed a good idea To drop a bomb on the wasteland here Only one man could be seen And he was old and so serene Captain sat in his deck chair And the red light flashed Beware Pilot felt quite big-time As the bomb sailed through the air Well, they danced and sang When the bang went bang When the lights popped out And the smoke began to clear It was positively queer (CHORUS) "Die" said the General "Cobblers" said the man So the Pentagon sent a cable And the Queen a telegram A-bombs, H-bombs, even very small ones Ripped apart that sand 'Til the stench was just revolting And the sky a greenish tan But the soldier said "Sir, there's a crack in the world" And the figures went "squash", and the bits flew far and wide How the universe sighed! (CHORUS twice) When the smoke had blown away There was nothing left to view Except a man dear Lord who looked like you Floating high up in the sky

Empty spaces - what are we living for Abandoned places - I guess we know the score On and on, does anybody know what we are looking for... Another hero, another mindless crime Behind the curtain, in the pantomime Hold the line, does anybody want to take it anymore The show must go on The show must go on, yeah Inside my heart is breaking My make-up may be flaking But my smile still stays on Whatever happens, I'll leave it all to chance Another heartache, another failed romance On and on, does anybody know what we are living for ? I guess I'm learning (I'm learning learning learning) I must be warmer now I'll soon be turning (turning turning turning) Round the corner now Outside the dawn is breaking But inside in the dark I'm aching to be free The show must go on The show must go on, yeah yeah Ooh, inside my heart is breaking My make-up may be flaking But my smile still stays on Yeah yeah, whoa wo oh oh My soul is painted like the wings of butterflies Fairytales of yesterday will grow but never die I can fly - my friends The show must go on (go on, go on, go on) yeah yeah The show must go on (go on, go on, go on) I'll face it with a grin I'm never giving in On - with the show Ooh, I'll top the bill, I'll overkill I have to find the will to carry on On with the show On with the show The show - the show must go on Go on, go on, go on, go on, go on Go on, go on, go on, go on, go on Go on, go on, go on, go on, go on Go on, go on, go on, go on, go on Go on, go on

Porcelain by Red Hot Chili Peppers
Porcelain Are you wasting away in your skin Are you missing the love of your kin Drifting and floating and fading away Porcelain Do you smell like a girl when you smile Can you bear not to share with your child Drifting and floating and fading away Little lune All day Little lune Porcelain Do you carry the moon in your womb Someone said that you're fading too soon Drifting and floating and fading away Porcelain Are you wasting away in your skin Are you missing the love of your kin Nodding and melting and fading away Little lune All day Little lune...

Pretty self-explanatory....
Artist Kraftwerk Album Trans-Europe Express Song The Hall of Mirrors The young man stepped into the hall of mirrors Where he discovered a reflection of himself Even the greatest stars discover themselves in the looking glass Even the greatest stars discover themselves in the looking glass Sometimes he saw his real face And sometimes a stranger at his place Even the greatest stars find their face in the looking glass Even the greatest stars find their face in the looking glass He fell in love with the image of himself and suddenly the picture was distorted Even the greatest stars dislike themselves in the looking glass Even the greatest stars dislike themselves in the looking glass He made up the person he wanted to be And changed into a new personality Even the greatest stars change themselves in the looking glass Even the greatest stars change themselves in the looking glass The artist is living in the mirror With the echoes of himself Even the greatest stars live their lives in the looking glass Even the greatest stars live their lives in the looking glass Even the greatest stars fix their face in the looking glass Even the greatest stars fix their face in the looking glass Even the greatest stars live their lives in the looking glass Even the greatest stars live their lives in the looking glass

This has to be one of my top five favourite songs of all time.
Fernando ABBA (Sung by Agnetha and Annfried, written by Benny Andersson, Stig Anderson and Bjorn Ulvaeus). Can you hear the drums Fernando? I remember long ago another starry night like this In the firelight Fernando You were humming to yourself and softly strumming your guitar I could hear the distant drums And sounds of bugle calls were coming from afar They were closer now Fernando Every hour every minute seemed to last eternally I was so afraid Fernando We were young and full of life and none of us prepared to die And I'm not ashamed to say The roar of guns and cannons almost made me cry There was something in the air that night The stars were bright, Fernando They were shining there for you and me For liberty, Fernando Though I never thought that we could lose There's no regret If I had to do the same again I would, my friend, Fernando Now we're old and grey Fernando And since many years I haven't seen a rifle in your hand Can you hear the drums Fernando? Do you still recall the frightful night we crossed the Rio Grande? I can see it in your eyes How proud you were to fight for freedom in this land There was something in the air that night The stars were bright, Fernando They were shining there for you and me For liberty, Fernando Though I never thought that we could lose There's no regret If I had to do the same again I would, my friend, Fernando There was something in the air that night The stars were bright, Fernando They were shining there for you and me For liberty, Fernando Though I never thought that we could lose There's no regret If I had to do the same again I would, my friend, Fernando Yes, if I had to do the same again I would, my friend, Fernando...

trust by squeeze.
Trust in me my tongue is weeping Words of love you must be needing Trust me for the only reason That our love will never weaken Trust in me as someone you love Trust in me a little closer Trust the soul of every soldier Trust in me each beat taps lightly On your door so now invite me Trust in me as someone you love Someone that you love Someone that you trust Someone to love you more and more Trust in me the words are woven Words of love can not be broken Trust before a night together The secret's ours in trust forever Trust in me as someone you love

every breath you take, one for GG. sung originally by the police.
Every breath you take Every move you make Every bond you break Every step you take I'll be watching you Every single day Every word you say Every game you play Every night you stay I'll be watching you Oh can't you see You belong to me How my poor heart aches with every step you take Every move you make Every vow you break Every smile you fake Every claim you stake I'll be watching you Since you've gone I've been lost without a trace I dream at night I can only see your face I look around but it's you I can't replace I feel so cold and I long for your embrace I keep crying baby, baby please Every move you make Every vow you break Every smile you fake Every claim you stake I'll be watching you

I CAN'T STAND LOSING YOU, the police. you know what i mean hannah.
I've called you so many times today And I guess it's all true what your girlfriends say That you don't ever want to see me again And your brother's gonna kill me and he's six feet ten I guess you'd call it cowardice But I'm not prepared to go on like this I can't, I can't I can't stand losing I can't, I can't I can't stand losing I can't, I can't I can't I can't stand losing you I see you've sent my letters back And my LP records and they're all scratched I can't see the point in another day When nobody listens to a word I say You can call it lack of confidence But to carry on living doesn't make no sense I can't, I can't I can't stand losing I can't, I can't I can't stand losing I guess this is our last goodbye And you don't care so I won't cry But you'll be sorry when I'm dead And all this guilt will be on your head I guess you'd call it suicide But I'm too full to swallow my pride I can't, I can't I can't stand losing I can't stand losing you

Queen - the best band in the world!
Who wants to live forever? There's no time for us There's no place for us What is this thing that builds our dreams, yet slips away from us? Who wants to live forever? Who wants to live forever...? There's no chance for us It's all been decided for us, This world has only one sweet moment set aside for us. Who wants to live forever? Who dares to love forever? When love must die. But touch my tears With your lips Touch my world With your fingertips And we can have forever And we can love forever Forever is our today Who wants to live forever? Who wants to live forever? Forever is our today Who waits forever anyway?

I'm sorry, I have to agree with A-E. Those last songs don't reflect anything particularly meaningful in terms of socio-political impact, etc.
Now: God's Song (That's Why I Love Mankind). Randy Newman. Cain slew Abel, Seth knew not why For if the children of Israel were to multiply Why must any of the children die? So he asked the Lord And the Lord said: Man means nothing, he means less to me Than the lowliest cactus flower Or the humblest Yucca tree He chases round this desert 'Cause he thinks that's where I'll be That's why I love mankind I recoil in horror fro the foulness of thee From the squalor and the filth and the misery How we laugh up here in heaven at the prayers you offer me That's why I love mankind The Christians and the Jews were having a jamboree The Buddhists and the Hindus joined on satellite TV They picked their four greatest priests And they began to speak They said, "Lord, a plague is on the world Lord, no man is free The temples that we built to you Have tumbled into the sea Lord, if you won't take care of us Won't you please, please let us be?" And the Lord said And the Lord said I burn down your cities-how blind you must be I take from you your children and you say how blessed are we You all must be crazy to put your faith in me That's why I love mankind You really need me That's why I love mankind

Peace frog. the Doors.
The significance is that the frog is a shamanistic representation of peace. The rest is pretty self explanatory. Blood on your hands, anybody? There's blood in the streets, it's up to my ankles She came There's blood on the streets, it's up to my knee She came Blood on the streets in the town of Chicago She came Blood on the rise, it's following me Think about the break of day She came and then she drove away Sunlight in her hair She came Blood in the streets runs a river of sadness She came Blood in the streets it's up to my thigh She came Yeah the river runs down the legs of the city She came The women are crying red rivers of weepin' She came into town and then she drove away Sunlight in her hair Indians scattered on dawn's highway bleeding Ghosts crowd the young child's fragile eggshell mind Blood in the streets in the town of New Haven Blood stains the roofs and the palm trees of Venice Blood in my love in the terrible summer Bloody red sun of Phantastic L.A. Blood streams her brain as they chop off her fingers Blood will be born in the birth of a nation Blood is the rose of mysterious union There's blood in the streets, it's up to my ankles Blood in the streets, it's up to my knee Blood in the streets in the town of Chicago Blood on the rise, it's following me
