Power to the people
Power to the people
Power to the people
Power to the people
Power to the people
Power to the people
Power to the people
Power to the people, right on
Say we want a revolution
We better get on right away
Well you get on your feet
And into the street
In the summertime when the weather is hot
You can stretch right up and touch the sky
When the weather's fine
You got women, you got women on your mind
Have a drink, have a drive
Go out and see what you can find
If her daddy's rich take her out for a meal
If her daddy's poor just do what you feel
Speed along the lane
Do a turn or return the twenty-five
When the sun goes down
You can make it, make it good and really fine
I got this song stuck in my head
Those pork chops though, this is real?
Have a drink, have a drive.. that's not safe
One August night in 1968, Graham Nash was smoking hash in a motel room after a gig with The Hollies at an old variety house in Leeds, in the north of England. The acclaimed Merseybeat group that Nash co-founded with Allan Clarke six years earlier was laying down tracks for an album of Bob Dylan covers, but Nash thought they should focus instead on developing their own original material.
The muses were on Nash’s side that night, and he wrote three poignant songs he would eventually record with a new set of bandmates when The Hollies showed little interest in them: “Lady Of The Island,” “Right Between The Eyes” and “Teach Your Children.” Those new bandmates were, of course, David Crosby and Stephen Stills, who enticed the slim, dapper young Englishman to quit The Hollies, join an emerging community of gifted musicians in the hills of Laurel Canyon overlooking Los Angeles, and form a new band.
At a time when defiant slogans like “Don’t trust anyone over 30” were popular among young people who felt betrayed by their elders sending them off to die in Vietnam, “Teach Your Children” sounded a welcome note of reconciliation and compassion. It was instantly embraced as a unifying anthem in a fractious time.
Nash says he was inspired to write the song by seeing a curator’s juxtaposition of two images from Nash’s photo collection at a gallery in Santa Clara. The first was a chilling portrait by photographer Arnold Newman of Alfried Krupp, a wealthy industrialist from the family that built Germany’s monstrous war machine, and insisted on using slave labor from concentration camps in their factories during World War II. Beside it was Diane Arbus’ iconic 1962 photograph of a boy clutching a toy hand grenade, a fanatical leer on his face.
“I began to realize that if we didn’t teach our kids a better way of dealing with our fellow human beings,” Nash recalls, “we were fucked.”
I'm not a perfect person
There's many things I wish I didn't do
But I continue learning
I never meant to do those things to you
And so I have to say before I go
That I just want you to know
I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
And the reason is you
Broken windows and empty hallways
A pale dead moon in the sky streaked with gray
Human kindness is overflowing
And I think it's going to rain today
Scarecrows dressed in the latest styles
With frozen smiles to chase love away
Human kindness is overflowing
And I think it's going to rain today
Lonely, lonely
Tin can at my feet
Think I'll kick it down the street
That's the way to treat a friend
Bright before me the signs implore me
To help the needy and show them the way
Human kindness is overflowing
And I think it's going to rain today
Will you have whiskey with your water
Or sugar with your tea
What are these crazy questions
That they're asking of me
This is the craziest party
That there ever could be
Oh, don't turn on the light
'Cause I don't want to see
Mama told me not to come
Mama told me not to come
That ain't the way to have fun
Yesterday a child came out to wonder
Caught a dragonfly inside a jar
Fearful when the sky was full of thunder
And tearful at the falling of a star
And the seasons they go round and round
And the painted ponies go up and down
We're captive on the carousel of time
We can't return we can only look behind
From where we came
And go round and round and round
In the circle game
What is this that stands before me?
Figure in black which points at me
Turn 'round quick and start to run
Find out I'm the chosen one
Oh, no
Big black shape with eyes of fire
Telling people their desire
Satan sitting there he's smiling
Watches those flames get higher and higher
Oh, no, no, please God help me
Let's go fucking crazy
Is it the end my friend
Satan's coming 'round the bend
People running 'cause they're scared
The people better go and beware
No, no, no
God praise you all!
I woke up this morning with the sundown shining in
I found my mind in a brown paper bag within
I tripped on a cloud and fell-a eight miles high
I tore my mind on a jagged sky
I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in
Yeah, yeah, oh-yeah, what condition my condition was in
I pushed my soul in a deep dark hole and then I followed it in
I watched myself crawling out as I was a-crawling in
I got up so tight I couldn't unwind
I saw so much I broke my mind
I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in
Yeah, yeah, oh-yeah, what condition my condition was in
Spencer Davis, Veteran British Rocker Known for ‘Gimme Some Lovin’,’ Dead at 81
https://variety.com/2020/music/news/spencer-davis-gimme-some-lovin-dead-dies-1234810794/#!
Spencer Davis, the veteran British rock musician renowned for hits that bore his name but he did not sing, died in a hospital Monday while being treated for pneumonia, his agent told the BBC.
While the Spencer Davis Group performed for decades, its biggest hits — including such frequently covered mid-1960s classics as “Gimme Some Lovin'” and “I’m a Man” — were sung not by Davis but a teenaged Steve Winwood, making the group, like the Dave Clark 5 and the J. Geils Band, one of several from the era named after a bandmember who was not the singer or frontman. The reason, bandmember Muff Winwood told Mojo in 1997, was because “Spencer was the only one who enjoyed doing interviews, so I pointed out that if we called it the Spencer Davis Group, the rest of us could stay in bed and let him do them.” Davis Group, the rest of us could stay in bed and let him do them.”

Here's a music video I cut together with footage from the classic apocalyptic sci-fi film Metropolis, combined with sci-fi folk song In The Year 2525 by Zager & Evans.
I really found them fitting together in a dystopian transhumanist meets Aldous Huxley's Brave New World kind of way.
What awaits humanity after the intense technological and biological developments set in motion? If we ever get there?
Thea von Harbou had some intensively accurate visions of the future. And Fritz Lang did the visual masterpiece. All this is now a classic topic about the future of humanity.
In this video I wanted to concentrate the idea, the message and the visions of the future. With the classic one hit wonder song and outstanding vintage film footage.

And I feel like I've been here before
Feel like I've been here before
And you know it does make me wonder
What's going on under the ground
Do you know?
Don't you wonder?
What's going on
Down under you
