GFF Soundtrack Vol. 3 - Political Palace
Alright, here we go..
Like all the other GFF discs, we'll be aiming for 15-20 tracks clocking in at under 74 minutes (go figure). Since this is the Political Palace, we want songs with a message. Protesting or supporting, it doesn't matter, but generally the music is just going to be a way to get the artist's standpoint across. Genre doesn't matter. Anything is good. Hell, if you've got a speech you'd like to submit, I'm all for it (consider length though) .The one limitation I'm gonna throw in is the nominator must be able to explain what issue or message the song deals with, if it's not incredibly obvious (It's not like I'm going to question it if you suggest RATM). Also, songs dealing with race are O.K., but no nazi shit. Sorry, Skrewdriver fans, but that's why we have the Sewers. We don't want repeats from last time, so don't suggest: Rammstein - Amerika The Offspring - LAPD System Of A Down - Boom! John Lennon - Give Peace A Chance John Lennon - Imagine That's right, we only got 5 tracks together last time. We can do better than that. Please post a link to your nominations at one of megaupload.com, rapidshare.de or yousendit.com. Finally, don't go overboard with nominations; keep your list a reasonable length. My suggestions: Frank Zappa - Trouble Every Day Neil Young - Southern Man Last Poets - White Man's Got A God Complex Jam it back in, in the dark. |
The Beatles - Revolution
Edwin Starr - War There's nowhere I can't reach.

Godspeed You! Black Emperor - The Dead Flag Blues
Monologue behind the music:
Godspeed You! Black Emperor - Blaise Bailey Finnegan III Monologue behind the music:
Megadeth - Holy Wars/Punishment Due Spoiler:
This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it. |
Probably should have mentioned earlier, but I think we'll try for one track per artist. Like the GY!BE choices, but just a nod that most likely only one will get in.
I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body? |
Fair enough, I'm really just tossing equal opportunity tracks out here. Whatever goes in the final is okay by me.
How ya doing, buddy? |
U2 - Sunday Bloody Sunday
U2 - Pride (In the name of Love) Sunday Bloody Sunday is about an IRA Bombing, thus aptly suiting the whole suicide terrorism issue, and Pride is a civil rights song as a tribute to the late and honorable Martin Luther King Jr. What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now? |
Adam, I don't want to be mean here, but are you that dumb? One nomination per artist, as per the coordinator's request.
As for my nomination... Immortal Technique - Freedom of Speech FELIPE NO |
The Cranberries - Zombie
Definatly a good song. Oh yeah. What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?
Licensed Commercial Pilot!
Currently: Float Pilot in BC Need a pilot? PM Me. Commercial Pilot, land and seaplanes, single and multi engines, instrument rating... I'm a jack of all trades! I can even be type rated! |
The one track per artist doesn't make sense either, one track per artist on the CD yeah, but only one per artist completely restricts how much we can bring in. Especially when it blocks music from some bands such as U2 who have dedicated so much to political movements. Jam it back in, in the dark. |
Bad Religion - I Want to Conquer the World. Because, deep down, no matter what side they're on, no matter what the issue, everyone's absolutely convinced that their view is the best one, period.
Avenue Q - Everyone's A Little Bit Racist. Ah, race... One of the staples of PP debate. But hey, admit it: we're all a little bit racist. Why lie? If we all could just admit That we are racist a little bit, Even though we all know that it's wrong, Maybe it would help us get along! EDIT: Took down the song links to make room for other things. If anyone needs them, PM me and I'll re-upload them temporarily. There's nowhere I can't reach. The closer you get to light, the greater your shadow becomes.

This is the only mix im going to contribute to because knkwzrd is an awesome dude, plus i know so many political songs.
Phil Ochs - One More Parade circa 1964 Spoiler:
Sun Ra's Nuclear war is also a good song. This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it. [ "Talisman" ] |
Comin' at ya:
Moxy Fruvous - Gulf War Song An excellently written song about how we reconcile personal disagreements over war while trying to remain friends. Genesis - Jesus He Knows Me A classic about hypocrisy and self-righteousness. I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Bad Religion - Let Them Eat War
Spoiler:
Billy Bragg - Waiting for the Great Leap Forwards Spoiler:
Communist Billy Bragg laments about the lack of progress shown by by Russia, Cuba and China. He trys in invigorate the great leap forwards. I'll get them uploaded on the weekend when I actually have bandwidth to spend. I was speaking idiomatically.

Oh, yeah "Eve of Destruction" by Barry McGuire (or the The Turtles, if you like it less rough)
Spoiler:
What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now? |
Kanye West - Crack Music (feat. Game)
Outkast - Gasoline Dreams (feat. Khujo Goodie) NWA - Fuck Da Police Cunninlynguists - Dying Nation Disgruntled Negro - Dark America Kidding on the last one of course.... FELIPE NO |
Less than politically correct, and most would consider it inflamatory. But you can sing along!
"The War of 1812" By Three Dead Trolls In A Baggie. Spoiler:
Most amazing jew boots
"The avalanche has already started. It is too late for the pebbles to vote."
|
Please post lyrics in spoiler tags. They take up too much space, and clutter the nominations. Thanks.
There's nowhere I can't reach. |
Actually, I see no reason why that one wouldn't be fitting. This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it. |
Well, it's one of my songs and probably wouldn't be included 'cause it's me.
Most amazing jew boots |
If anything it should be included because it's you. Who can mention PP without someone thinking of NP?

"worlds Apart" from Springsteen's "The Rising". It features a pakistani backup choir and highlights the differences and similarities between the US and Middle east...seems appropriate for the PP. "Empty Sky" from the same album is also good.
While we're at it, how about "The Sickness" from Disturbed, seeing as there are some pretty disturbing ideas presented here sometimes! What, you don't want my bikini-clad body? |
