Political Music
PLAYLISTS ARE MY THING LATELY, HAVE YOU NOTICED?
Anyway, started a playlist of songs for US/UK politics; you can find it here if you have Spotify. I think that all of the UK ones come from a fanmix for Attack the Block that I downloaded a while ago - will link to that when I'm home & have the bookmark.
Do you have any song recs? As evidenced by the list, I'm into pop music, so recs along those lines = nice. Recs need not be centered on US/UK politics; that's just what I've got so far.
There's a War Going On For Your Mind - Flobots
Council Estate of Mind - Skinnyman
Golden Sand - The Republic Tigers
Wretches and Kings - Linkin Park
My England - Lady Sovereign
Take a Walk - Passion Pit
If There Ever Was a Time - Third Eye Blind
Hands Held High - Linkin Park
POWER - Kanye West
Wisdom, Justice, and Love - Linkin Park
We Are Winning - Flobots
I might add to this list myself later, because I forgot my iPod at home today. I need music to function at work, so the Spotify app is currently creating a playlist centered on Flobots's "There's a War Going On For Your Mind." Its first add is "We are all on drugs" by Weezer, lol.
WARNING THAT THE GLEE COVER OF "SCREAM" MIGHT BE MY FIRST ADD, JSYK.

OMG RITSU IS DISAPPPPPPPPPOINT
Also, totally cliched, but I have a weak spot for Eminem's "Mosh," I admit it!
More (some of these are a little more... single-issue?): Catie Curtis, "Radical"; The Ark, "Father to a Son"; like all of Blue Scholars' stuff, not just the one I mentioned before, but "Fire for the People" is especially awesome; "We Belong," Magnetic North w/Taiyo Na; "Queer Nation" by Good Asian Drivers (welllll that's more spoken word but whatever); Indigo Girls, "Go"; "Weapon of Choice", Melissa Li; Echobelly, "Give Her a Gun."
