LOL so sick. 'on a wire outside my window there sit 100 swallows and i suspect that if one flew then 99 would follow' that so perfectly symbolizes one man revolution. tom morello for prez!
u know i listen to heavy rock and all that hardcore stuff but u know i go pack to my roots like rolling stones and other but nothing can touch this masterpiece it make me cry it remands of are life there is a there better place to live it is with god
@sandiasundevil Tom grew up in Chicago, went to Harvard, studied there and earned a degree in political science while still playing 6 hours of guitar a day XD, packed his bags and moved to LA where he worked for a senator where we was shocked at how disgusting todays politicians are and quit, found Zack De La Rocha in a small pub and discussed politics and music together and hasnt looked back since.
Tom is not just one of the best rock guitarist ever, he has the whole package. High intelligence, brilliant musicianship, awsome lyrics and most of all he is sincere, a team player and a great advocate of universal equality!
I think im gonna use this song for my English class American Dream project. Can anyone help translate the song a bit for me? I need a good grade on this if i expect to pass lol.
Tom's guitar is tuned Eb Ab Db Gb Bb Eb, for everyone who's unaware of what tuning he's playing in on this song.
- I believe in a society without a government, where you don't have some darn politician to represent you. This can be made true if we just try hard enough.
i watched a video the other day, tom morello Vs. Slash. one comment stated that tom was good but lacked soul. BULL SHIT, his songs ooze soul from every facit expected from a musical peice
@nauravapaska like you have any way of making that statement anything other than your own stupid opinion. Apparently you compare EVERYBODY to JH, how fucking stupid is that. Be consistent in your arguments please, and shut up when all you really say is nothing, arms flailing and flinging your poo at random people.
@Anengho my point is that jimi hendrix is best because he created most of stuff that slash and others use. there are lots of guitarists who are technically better than hendrix, but hendrix is the pioneer
He did this song live today at the Not Strictly Bluegrass Festival, just himself and his acoustic guitar, and ten times the passion of this take. If you think Tom's recorded stuff is good, see him live. He comes out there and he's the voice of doom for evildoers, sends chills down your spine. If anybody deserves to have Woody Guthrie's slogan "this guitar kills fascists" engraved on his guitar, it's Tom Morello.
Tom Morello's music never ceases to put a chill down my spine and it always reminds me of all the bullshit going on in the world. We need to stand up and fight back.
i like tom's bass-like voice. its is awesome. when i first heard him sing, i didnt even think it was his, but it turns out it was his, once i really started to open my ears and listen. tom is a true artist. anyone who disagrees should think twice about tom.
i hate musicians who try to be political what does any musician know about polotics its like a politition who bases his decisions on music he should stick to guitar any
@pixelpixie1 because if you're not from a rich family it takes a lot of work and balls and brains to get your ass to and through harvard ^^ of course it matters, not in a sense of people being on a lower pedestal if they didn't go to harvard, but in a sense that I would take a harvard graduates word over a guy who owns a hot dog stand if discussing social economy. in case of tom morello writing material with such a rich political context his education is of course a issue.
@Xenobiarch Ok, I agree that going to Harvard or Oxford or Cambridge etc.. is a massive achievment, they are top universities after all. I also agree that Tom knows what he is talking about, and I will listen to anything he has to say or sing anytime. However, I also think that Tom would have done just as well if he had done his socio - political degree in say Leeds or Manchester, in fact he may have had better, more subversive teachers.
you are a retard, not only does tom morello posses a degree from a very prestigous school, but he also speaks out often and intelligently on topics that matter. i hate people who knock shit they know absolutely nothing about. you dont like it, dont listen, its not are fault you are as uneducated about music as you are about politics.
hat do musicians know about politics??? obviously alot more then you. actually i'll bet that any musician knows 10X more then any politician. it takes individual thinking to be a musician of toms degree,it takes a bitch who can take orders to be a politician....you must be a politician come to think of it.
what an irroneous comment, thats like saying...'you like hunting, so you must know nothing about firing a gun'
Music is a vehicle for the message.
And not everything has to have a reverse effect, music is great for demonstrating political activism, becuase it inspires people, yet polititions wouldnt base there desisions on music, becuase people want to hear them, not a song.
He may not be the best singer, but he isn't bad, if that is what you are suggesting. I was actually surprised that Morello had such a good voice when I first listened to the Nightwatchman. I wonder why Morello didn't sing in Rage instead of Timmy C. Now Timmy C has a bad voice.
well they are back together now. so maybe it might happen, but i mean its all up in the air. one thing i would like to see is if Audioslave and RATM could do a joint tour. that would be cool, btu maybe its just wishful thinking. i mean you would get RATM, nightwatchmen, and audioslave all in one. who wouldnt like that?
this is dope!

Plain and Simple.
A true American who fully exemplifies and exercises the 1st Amendment that the United States now so disgracefully restrict.
