RBS Protest Song: "wanna pump the tar sands" (price tag)

[chinaoaks1]

Love you girls! Great song, and message.

Can't get it out of my head.

Thanks.

[SuperDivads]

you girls are so right fuck the 1%

[weesoul]

way to go! FoES :) I hope they get the message

[Adam1992i]

and if RBS didn't, lloyds would, if not them, HSBC, barclays...if you want ethical banking, use the co op bank. they are growing hugely and are very ethical. it's pointless and stupid protesting at the bank when there are 100s of other places willing to do it.

[Simon88ification]

Yet another arrogant, infuriating person putting their nose where it's not wanted, I deplore Friends of the Earth and would love them to be shut down somehow, shame it probs won't happen. I'd love a Friends of the Earth or a Tree Hugger to come and ask me to start and use public transport rather than use my motorbike, hoo hoo, the response they would get from me would deafen them! Oh and the answer to the question, how do you sleep at night, simple, Horlicks :)

@Simon88ification Congrats, you're a petrol head who doesn't give a fuck about the planet. Good for you, now go be a cunt somewhere else, cheers pal. see ya.

[blackicemagazine]

There are technologies not being uses that would make the planet a utopia now. Freaks like bankers create fear and scarcity and block these inventions and buy they up.

oh and Brilliant band and rewrite!!!

Great work! Loved the song and the message, I agree.

Hope this goes viral. I've sent it onto many more.

Can't get it out of my head now..........................

The good news, ladies, is that actions like yours work, and it looks like markets such as Europe and the Keystone XL pipeline are saying no.

[plenty12DOTblogspot]

Scruptious! How do you get that drilling action? Glad to see our green stuff trashing our common future in style.

[faulknmd]

Don't suppose anyone's got the full lyrics to this version? 

[LynX1969]

Greetings from Alberta, Canada! Thanks for this - love it, and have shared with many others who support the cause (in fact I think we should round up a crew here to perform it at RBC/Royal Bank of Canada, who are the biggest financiers of the Tar Sands here!)... Good work ladies - rock on!

[iTreasure]

Right On! I'm ashamed to be Canadian....Thanks so much for this!!

[sensfan22]

Good job on the song, sounds great

Ladies, you are absolutely fantastic. I live in central Texas and went to the state department hearing (which I might say was full of BS and paid union workers to support it)

Thanks for sharing. I like to see global protest to the pipeline. Nothing makes people come together like a common enemy right?

[ANTISMARTMETERBC]

WOW.. BRAVO PEEPS.....September 26, 2011 - Canadian Greens took part in a global movement to make the shift away from fossil fuels as part of our effort to solve the climate crisis. Moving Planet, spearheaded by 350.org, is a worldwide rally, with thousands of events taking place in countries across the globe. More than 200 people risked arrest on Parliament Hill in the largest climate-related civil disobedience action in Canadian history .. Check - Ottawa Action (on you tube)

[ANTISMARTMETERBC]

Tar sands suck,,,I live in Vancouver Canada .. That toxic chemical slough must be stopped ... Great video ladies / Friends of earth scot

[FriendsofEarthScot]

Thanks everyone! We had loads of fun making the film and it is so heartening to that it getting a good reception, especially in Canada. Cheers, Mary

[musesuseus]

@FriendsofEarthScot thanks for sharing your lovely voices, choreography, with, chutzpah and great camera work-- i loved your song even before I got to hear "Price Tag" Altho our original "Leave the Tar Sands in the Ground" is so different (a serious anthem) we're proud to be fellow art-ivists singing out against this eco-nightmare financed by Greed Inc. LLC

[SaniyaCanada]

BRILLIANT! Wish you could come to our (Canada's) actual Tar Sands in Alberta & hold a protest & sing this. LOTS of activists in Canada would support you!

[sensfan22]

@SaniyaCanada Have u heard of the song "shallow waters" as well? Its a beautiful song by a 10 yr old girl in vancouver singing bout oil and how damaging it is. She actually sang her song with Greenpeace members in the Tar Sands and I believe they got escorted out

[Operasinger870]

I want to see this girl band do more with activist music. This is the best thing ever!

[1976tiberius]

there are some tarrible puns in there

[vasper85]

It is good to see that Scotland cares more about Canada than Canadians do.

[musesuseus]

correction: that's DougThreeFifty

[musesuseus]

beautifully and wittily performed--

who wrote the music?

recently recorded a little tune "leave the tarsands in the ground"--

[SaniyaCanada]

@musesuseus Thanks for this note, Doug350. I found it, love it, & shared it with Cdn Indigenous Enviro Network - Tar Sands div.

[leaand2]

As a Canadian, I am ashamed of the way that the money has become more important tan human lives and our environment.

[0olong]

That's pretty great! Any chance of uploading it re-dubbed without the traffic noise, though?

[falamslam45]

Amazing! I've watched it like four times, brill :) RBS won't be greenwashing their tar sands away!

[Anonywish]

wonderful, outstanding, and inspiring job guys.

Now lets follow OccupyWallStreets example and OccupyEdinburghGlasgowDundeeAb­erdeenInvernessDunfermlineScot­land ;)
