magnificent song from one of the greatest ever singers, Paul Robeson. A true classic, but I agree with with of the comments here that said that this should be put down as Paul Robeson.

My will is easy to decide
For there is nothing to divide
My kin don't need to fuss and moan
"Moss does not cling to a rolling stone."
My body? - Oh. - If I could choose
I would to ashes it reduce
And let the merry breezes blow
My dust to where some flowers grow
Perhaps some fading flower then
Would come to life and bloom again
This is my Last and final Will
Good Luck to All of you
Thank you! ( 11 months ago by ninsun)

classic song (sometimes it is hard to find Robeson) and cool enough video but who are the freaks hopping around like they want to pretend they're on acid back in the 60s? Surely these are not the progeny planning to organise the working class . . . they can't even organise their own feet.

wherever there's a strike, wherever there's a picket line, wherever people are beaten down and fired and jailed, wherever people stand up for their rights..I'll be there. Doesn't need to be workers..resistance keeps rising where you least expect it..but when - if - workers organise to fight for a new world...that's when hope becomes real

Be sure to look up Phil Och's "Joe Hill". A good one is him singing on Swedish television.

Kind of remind me of the festival crowd in South Park's "Die Hippie Die" episode, basically just giving lip service to social change.

I first became aware of Joe Hill a few months ago and I had no idea that one of my countrymen was that famous in the U.S. There is also a swedish version of this song by the troubadour Fred
Åkerström.
The greatest ... ( 5 months ago by Ninyae1)
The greatest protest we can perform is to refuse. Refuse to work for them. Leave your employment and refuse the dole, then you have the right conditions for social change. Refuse to buy. Everytime we buy, we are supporting war, giving them a reason to war in our name in order to supply us with useless throwaway products. The history of the 20th century makes more sense when interpreted primarily as the struggle for control of oil rather than the clash of ideologies.

Refuse to work, refuse the dole?? What utter drivel. Your sort of socialism is dead and rotting in the street. We just need someone to bury it. The 21st century is the clash of civilisations, Socialism is irrelevant. This music is awesome. It has power, but has it any relevance?. I wish it did, but modernn western society is moving beyond production. To what, I really dont know.

You stinky british island ape, awful to recognize that there are lots of people leaving Your concept of "civilization" and "clashes" to jewized idiots like You? Bury yourself, anglosaxon jewboy, socialism is alive and kicking. What should and will be irrelevant is Wall Street. You are living on borrowed time. cheers from the country whose 72% of its population want the wall back.

What a lovely kind of socialism you proclaim where you blame the Jews.....oh yeah, wait; we've seen that one before, from the mad Austrian corporal Hitler. He brought Germany to literal ruin in 12 years
caused the deaths of 50 million people. So when it comes to fucking off, its you can go get lost you stupid little Nazi prick. Wall street should be irrelevant...yeah yeah, so where do you organise exchange
arrange credit. All Nazis are economic morons, it comes with the territory. Assclown
