All Covers...

First up is a cover of a Steppenwolf tune. This was an anti-war tune that came out during the Nam years. (1968) But yes, it's a toe-tapper..some folks had no idea what it was about then, and still no idea what it's about now. The lyrics- You don't know what we even fight. ( what were we fighting for in Nam? What are we fighting for now in Afgani?)  Here are some young folks having fun with it. ( make a wild guess who the most popular girl in school was.. just guess haha!) Here is Fat Boy Slim ~ "Magic Carpet Ride"

This song was made popular by the group "WAR"... it was good then. Here it is twisted up a notch by "The Latin Alliance" 


I was working in a fish plant at the time (gawd awful job) just got off a 12 hour shift that I'd worked with people that I mostly could not communicate with, I can speak a little Spanish, they could speak a little English, it was enough for us to get by... I was soooo tired... I came out walking through the parking lot and someone was blasting this tune, and it totally made my day! 


(just love Lil Wayne in this... sounds like he's got a mouth fulla marbles! haha!) 


Here is Latin Alliance ~ "Low Rider"

.

Next up is another anti-war song from the Nam era, this is a cover tune also, originally from Buffalo Springfield... The video clip however is from our New Revolution, Occupy Wallstreeet protesters... 


Some think these folk are quacks... some of them might be, but a lot of them are just regular folks, but now these people have no job "position"... have lost their pensions and 401k's, people that have worked all of their lives... they can't find jobs and are now losing their cars and their homes... I would seriously be there but I cannot afford to take a pause for it... I've already lost everything and I'm rather fond of having a good meal and I must work to rebuild my life... Maybe in January when I'm laid off I will join them... I might have no other place to go then. Freedom is just another word for nothing left to lose....


this is quite a video...


here is One Rupublic ~ "For What It's Worth" 

Ozzy- Under Cover... oh yeah, here is ""Rocky Mountain Way"

I always have thoughts that I cannot say out loud when I hear this song.... Here is Limp Bizkit covering ~ "Behind Blue Eyes"
