Beautiful song. It gives me goosebumps whenever I listen to this song. We are a land of many colours, and we are singing, singing for our lives, we are a gentle loving people and we are singing, singing for our lives.
rscmrcmd, many groups of people who has been oppressed by a greater society or power have been gentle and angry, including Indians led by Ghandi in their quest towards independence from British rule, African-Americans led by MLK in their quest towards freedom in America and now LGBT people in our quest towards equality in America.
No one's replied to this? Yes. GENTLE coz (all) we're asking for the right to LOVE who we choose, without harm. ANGRY, coz that "right" is not yet "given" us and, worse yet, we're taunted, attacked, beaten & murdered because of it... "If YOU are bound, how can *I* be free?" VIVA the Gentle Revolution! "If a bullet should enter my brain, let that bullet shatter every closet door..." --Harvey Milk. PEACE, *all*!
It's been so long since I've seen Holly Near. It's nice to see that she is still around. Thank you for posting this wonderful tribute Mr. Moscone and Mr. Milk.
WOW, What a voice. Holly can Sang for real.
