5. Great to hear that song again. Was lucky to hear it for the first time several years ago.

Thank you for taking the time to share it here, niyad.

At times in recent history, the last 50 years, people have been killed for singing songs like that, or put on right-wing government s' lists before they left the country to wait out a filthy war on dissent by the left. They have also been claimed to have "committed suicide" from out of nowhere once it was well known their beliefs were democratic during fascist dictatorships.

As we know, we haven't been that far away from this grim situation during Dubya, or now.

Thanks, again.
