To Those Who Have Ears!

[PurpleLama]

I have a very simple proposition, and I invite everyone to participate. This is the inspiritation of this morning. If this seems ridiculious to you, please know that sometimes things carry much more power if we feel a little silly, even childish while doing them. So, here goes:

Imagine, however you choose, the various letter agencies and secret groups, whatever evil powers there be.

SING at them, seven times, this line from a Twisted Sister song, and if you know the song then sing it to the tune, but if you don't, just make it up.

"We're not gonna take it!
NO!
We ain't gonna take it!
We're not gonna take it anymore!"

I plan on doing this until the evil powers are broken beneath the feet of silly childish humor. Be joyful and LOUD and the PTB will hardly stand. To those who see exactly what I am doing, please help to encourage sort of activity. The more the merrier.

i like to do this w/the Muse song 'Uprising' -- crank it up & sing along at full volume, especially the lines

They will not force us
They will stop degrading us
They will not control us
We will be victorious

great angry drums

[bekrah]

That's an awesome song too.

Wow. I'd forgotten all about this thread, one day short of one year ago.

Good job, bekrah!

Reality is such a funny thing, my yesterday looks an awful lot like someone else's tomorrow.

I've paid my dues -
Time after time -
I've done my sentence
But committed no crime -
And bad mistakes
I've made a few
I've had my share of sand kicked in my face -
But I've come through

We are the champions - my friends
And we'll keep on fighting - till the end -
We are the champions -
We are the champions
No time for losers
'Cause we are the champions - of the world -

I've taken my bows
And my curtain calls -
You brought me fame and fortuen and everything that goes with it -
I thank you all -

But it's been no bed of roses
No pleasure cruise -
I consider it a challenge before the whole human race -
And I ain't gonna lose -

We are the champions - my friends
And we'll keep on fighting - till the end -
We are the champions -
We are the champions
No time for losers
'Cause we are the champions - of the world -

(Sorry after I posted I realise this isnt a song - probably off topic)

This speech has been on the forum a few times.

Here is a nice video mash-up version.

I thought I would contribute a song here. It's pretty much my three year old daughter's mindset when facing me and her mother everyday. Sigh, oh well. But a good song for developing the mindset of this thread. :sun:

We have 'ears to hear and eyes to see', so let's use them...

'Rage, rage, against the dying of the light....'

Words of famous people..

Let them be inspirational....

Black panther defy the power
Fight the violence with nonviolence
What good is justice if the scales are bent
By a criminal government
Think of the dead in vietnam
Think of the dead in birmingham
Think of the freedom we don't understand
Asleep in bed in a stolen land
Responsibility to understand
Responsibility to take a stand
Responsibility to know your place
In the struggle of the human race

I listened to this again last night, and it's worthy of a bump. Any who visit this thread should take the time to listen.

This thread was started so long ago, but the idea wasn't one of political music videos, as much as it was modulation of the conscious signal we collectively emit, to say No More, to draw a line in the sand. So, today I have the time, and I will take a stand, even if it's in my own mind it's gotta start somewhere. This video John posted is an excellent way to prepare the ground for a work in consciousness as I envision for today.
