13 To the governments of the world. Early 90s techno which isn't my cup of tea but this particular band was great. Powerful message that all of the world is singing today in their own words.

Here is something resonating with me at the moment:-
Snow Patrol - Life on Earth.

No probs, I can't help but feeling in the core of my being that:-
"This is not the same as other days, this is something else, this is something else"
This is one of my favorite albums of all time. My first tour overseas, this was on non-stop in my barracks room. My roomie almost killed me.
But I would not call this techno.
Interesting lyrics :-
When we were growing up
We wanted to become
The special people
In this lonely, broken place
And after all the years have gone
Only a few of us
Ever reached our goals
Some of us are still trying hard
Do you know?
That's all we wanted was to have our dream
Do you know?
That's all we wanted was to have our dream
Our ambitions are sacred to us
They keep us moving forward in our lives
You don't have the right to make it die in us
You don't have the right to destroy
Do you know?
That's all we wanted was to have our dream
Do you know?
That's all we wanted was to have our dream
To the governments of the world
To greed, to anger
To war, to hatred
To racism, to religion
To disease, to destruction
To the bombs, to confusion
To reality, to the jealousy
To the governments of the world
CHORUS REPEATS.
No probs, I thought posting the lyrics might help illustrate their relevance to today's mass psychosis.
