The Specials - The Lunatics (Have Taken Over The Asylum)
"Oddly prophetic and socially relevant"

Source: https://youtube.com/watch?v=Dy4RZgMmb68

Lyrics
… See a clinic full of cynics
Who want to twist the peoples' wrist
They're watching every move we make
We're all included on the list
… The lunatics have taken over the asylum
The lunatics have taken over the asylum
… No nuclear the cowboy told us
And who am I to disagree
'Cause when the madman flips the switch
The nuclear will go for me
… The lunatics have taken over the asylum
The lunatics have taken over the asylum
… I've seen the faces of starvation
But I just can not see the points
'Cause there's so much food here today
That no one wants to take away
… The lunatics have taken over the asylum
The lunatics have taken over the asylum
The lunatics have taken over the asylum, take away my right to choose
The lunatics have taken over the asylum, take away my point of view
The lunatics have taken over the asylum
The lunatics have taken over the asylum, take away my dignity
Take these things away from me
The lunatics have taken over the asylum
The lunatics have taken over the asylum, take away my family
Take away the right to speak
The lunatics have taken over the asylum take away my point of view
Take away my right to choose

Funny, I never saw this video. It's like they came back to life just for me...

This amazing musician joined the Zappa band in his late teens I believe.

"The Crazy Face Factory is more than a workplace, it's where I chase my ideas, dreams of music, imagination and plans. Industrial and industrious. I spend days on end there, nights there alone. It's Call The Comet, Armatopia... where I live Fever Dreams.”

Don’t you know: I see this thread pop up many times… I don’t think I’ve really paid attention to it. Always a pity; I’m KAV, which means, when I’m not feeling my way through life, I’m surely listening to how it feels.
Given everything that’s been going on lately, my feelings go back to what I once heard as a hormonal and desperately poetic youth. Two songs, from the same artist:

This one couldn’t be more relevant for me, some 28 years later. Now that I’m entrenched in the mountains, reluctantly leaving the ocean and the beaches of my childhood, I find myself in an entirely different but necessary reality. A long way from ‘home’, armed, self-sufficient, providing for my family and quietly hoping that no-one knows where I am, or that I even exist, I occasionally look out across the mountains to the west; I breathe a sigh of relief that I made a tough decision to leave the big cities. It’s a surreal reality I never thought I’d want, let alone be hoping to be ready for. Yet here I am, and this song is uppermost in my memory:

Wow, very cool post. Thanks Tigger (KAV). You and I are truly brothers in arms living parallel lives on opposite sides of this world they call The Twilight Zone. I had to leave the beach cities of California for the Rockies and now live a mere 30 miles from the Canadian border. Yes, an entirely different yet necessary new reality - armed with cows, goats and growing our own food far from the maddening crowds of the scamdemic. Never saw it coming either until we were living in San Francisco when Trump got elected. Those lunatics lost their minds, constant protests in the streets blocking traffic and chanting nonsense. You ask them a question and get screamed at because they couldn't answer it, it was literally turning into the zombie apocalypse . So we left, after 47 years, in 2017, we left California, and thank god we did before 2020. Never put on a mask, so yeah, we're out in the sticks too. Know what they call summer out here? Getting ready for winter. But I've got Norwegian blood so I like it, growing up in socal (southern California) I would dance like a madman when it rained, we didn't have seasons there, just sunny and hot 12 months a year, was always sunburned. Back then it was a surfboard, guitar and a girlfriend, now most days involve a chainsaw, tractor, and a wife, though I still find time for the guitar. One of my girlfriends back then really loved Dire Straits and we listened to the first album on a lot of road trips - I clearly remember driving through the night on mushrooms from Phoenix, Arizona to Albuquerque and Santa Fe, New Mexico and all those amazing red plateaus coming into view around us with the day's first light and then the sun rising perfectly symmetrical and balanced on the highway before us as we drove due east, like we were driving into a beautiful red portal. It was a magic hour, felt like we were entering another world, and Dire Straits first album was on the stereo.

Absolutely loved Australia when I was there in 93/94', truly a crime what's been going on there the last few years. Hang in there brother, I can feel something coming in my bones and I don't think it's what "they"re wanting. Thanks for sharing and jumping aboard this ship of fools. As a friend once told me when I was leaving SF, "If I don't see you in the future, I'll see you in the pasture."

These bring back happy memories; we're off on a long road trip this weekend, one of the previous times we went there we had Jean Michel Jarre's Rendez-Vous blasting out on a cassette tape in the car, no. 4 is my favourite.

Also I've been transported to happy times; 1975 - great friends, great times, long hot summers and our futures ahead of us. The sound of Supertramp just sums up the zeitgeist.

For we are opposed around the world by a monolithic and ruthless conspiracy that relies primarily on covert means for expanding its sphere of influence -- on infiltration instead of invasion, on subversion instead of elections, on intimidation instead of free choice, on guerrillas by night instead of armies by day. It is a system which has conscripted vast human and material resources into the building of a tightly knit, highly efficient machine that combines military, diplomatic, intelligence, economic, scientific and political operations. Its preparations are concealed, not published. Its mistakes are buried, not headlined. Its dissenters are silenced, not praised. No expenditure is questioned, no rumor is printed, no secret is revealed. It conducts the Cold War, in short, with a war-time discipline no democracy would ever hope or wish to match.
― John F. Kennedy

Trying to think of the collective term for Dire Straits songs? A Desperate Straits of Dire Straits? An Unreconcilable Hopelessness of Dire Straits? You get the idea: it's Dire Straits.

One from ‘Down Under’. I used to listen to this on my “Sony Walkman” when sunbaking on the beach in 1985. I was a teenager, and at the time I felt like the world was full of wonder, adventure and potential. I wonder if kids feel the same these days…

Snuck in to see INXS at Irvine Meadows in '85 or '86, good show, I was a teenager too. Just heard Sinead O'Connor died. Can't believe she took the shot - twice. Always thought she was pretty, even without hair, figured anyone who can pull that off's got something goin' on. Very sad.

On a lighter note, here's what it was like growing up an hour from Hollywood and "the Valley" in the 80s:
