  • meravigliosa.....

  • ♥♥  Love is the ringing of the telephone? I believe love is * We Shall Overcome*

    Only a ♥ full of Love and understanding could know what another heart needed at a time of intense hurt and pain.

    Something is Wrong With My Baby, Something is Wrong With Me

  • Thank You

  • Occupy Together!

  • this movie is perfect for this song

    deep stuff

  • 5 people do not want to overcome :(

  • To the heterosexuals reading this, remember that you also may belong to a group that was once oppressed and others that were unlike you fought for your human rights and dignity. Please return the favor. We all share this one Earth and no one is going anywhere. So let's all just get along and enjoy the ride together.

  • To all the homosexuals all over the world who are shunned, harassed, persecuted, ridiculed, bullied, oppressed, jailed, tortured, and/or murdered for being born who you are: Keep fighting for your human rights and dignity. You are fighting the good fight. One day bigotry and hate will fade into the shadows and the world will be much brighter.

  • :) The Boss is the best yet.

  • Maybe someday we shall overcome...I have hope, an immense amount of it, and I hope to help somehow make this song come true, but the world seems to be so insidious at times, it kind of makes one want to give up and just accept things the way they are, never expecting any change. But not now, not as long as I hear this song. :)

  • I like Bruce´s version!! Im looking for songs about discrimination, so if anybody has any suggestions feel free to tell me!!

  • Was this sung by Bruce at the Peter Seeger Tribute in Madison Square? 'Cause I think this is Peter Seeger's version isn't it?

  • writien by Pete Seeger

    sung by Bruce springsteen.

  • Now I know that it's Petes version! Thanks!

  • I have walked the streets of Selma... i Have crossed the Edmund Pettus Bridge... and i have stood in the Brown Chapel... and i know... i know that we shall still overcome the hatred that exist between any two people

  • This song is dedicated to my "sonny boy" Jean-Luc; I love you son for being beside me during this past presidential election. No more Bush (Le Meurtrier), Donald Rumsfeld (L'Idiot), Dick Cheney (L'Idiot des Idiots), Condoleeza Rice (Quel Honte!) and all of the other parasites (in particular, the evangelical conservative right vomit of vomits.) YAH rules, Satan is defeated, and YA'OSHUA is establishing is millennial kingdom. Peace and Shalom,

  • I looked this up. i like it a lot. My Georgia Studies teacher played for us i liked it alot

  • Congratulations to the brave Justices of the Iowa Supreme Court. When faced with a wrong, you righted it. You saw disgusting, systemic discrimination exactly for what it was and said no more. Let us hope that more human beings around the world will stand up for what is right, and let all homosexuals one day soon be free from malice, intolerance, hatred, bullying, being made fun of, violence, beatings, imprisonment, torture, murder, and bigotry.

  • I heard this song in Social studies last week, I love it, We are studying the Civil Rights Era, This is a beautiful anthem, we did this segregated thing when the blue eyed people get praised, encouraged, etc. I am blue eyed, and what happened I thought was wrong, well in the demonstration and real life. It really opened my eyes on what happened back then.

  • I was asking about a reference to "No More Auction Block" as a possible precursor to Tindley's 1901 gospel song "I'll Overcome" (which was sung by black women in from the labor movement in the 1940s and taken from there to Highlander via Zilphia Horton and also Pete Seeger). The director of Highlander, Guy Carawan, taught it at the first meeting of SNCC. Interesting story about how the "I" became "We" (not what you think - see Bernice Johnson Reagon's writing)

  • This was great in 2008 and it's great in 2009.

  • ich muss das in der schule singen

  • sei froh das du nicht einen song vom nazi heino singen musst.

    gruss vom niederrhein ;-)

  • ich hab auf das lied ne 2 bekommen

  • beim vorsingen in der schule oder wie ?

  • I would say Zilpha Horton/Pete Seeger/Guy Carawan all played a big role - Guy taught it then to the first SNCC meeting. I'm looking for evidence that WSO is derived from No More Auction Block, does anyone have either musical or lyrical evidence?

  • Look up in MySpace Bruce Springsteen rendition of WSO Live for BBC where he explains the origin of this powerful anthem...the current lyrics are attributed to Pete Seeger

  • An absolutely perfect song with a great video. It's rare when a song is both beautiful and powerful.

    I hope it does speak for anyone who is oppressed, anywhere, anytime. It does give hope. Thanks for posting it.

  • God Bless You Barack Obama! from Italy!

  • This is dedicated to all the homosexuals all over the world that continue to be harassed, abused, oppressed, discriminated against, ridiculed, beaten, tortured and murdered. Keep fighting for your human rights and dignity. You are fighting the good fight. One day bigotry will fade into the shadows and you will overcome.

  • We Shall Be Free by, Garth Brooks is the best song as an, Anthem For Gays and Lesbians all around this wonderful world!!!

  • yeah fuck religion

  • nice song.

    i love it.

  • i'm crying.... i love this song

  • Ei quatretigres!, jo també sóc català i no sento cap opressió i cap sensació de manca de llibertat en la meva vida ni a la de la resta de persones que vivim a la nostra terra. Em fa vergonya comparar-me amb pobles que realment son oprimits. Em sembla que vius a una realitat paral.lela.

  • yeyeeeah!!! amen hermano

  • Visca Catalunya LLiure!!!!

    Freedom for Catalunya.

    We shall overcome, liked spanish people or not, they will have to learn to live with the idea of catalan culture not going to disappear in spite all their efforts since dictatorship till now.

  • Freedom for all nations, tribes and people on earth.!!!!! I fight for the freedom of Catalunya, my country, and for mine, because we all deserve it,

    The ones that need to fuck others to feel good have a troubled mind, and will not be able to make us be silent, neither to make me leave this place as if he was a little fucking dictator, no my friend, here we have freedom of speech, here is not your little dictatorship, try to learn.

  • Freedom for all the nations, tribes and people on earth, who doesn't like all being being free has a big big problem in his troubled mind.My Country is Catalunya and I ant freedom for her and for me too, and anyone is gonna make me be silent.

  • This is to all the homosexuals around the world who are discriminated against, denied basic rights, oppressed, harassed, vilified, lampooned, persecuted, beaten, arrested, imprisoned, tortured, and/or murdered. Have faith and keep fighting the good fight. One day you will overcome.

  • Catalunya, in Europe, under the power of spanish government is hardly pushed for her culture to disappear. This summer we use "we shall overcome" in order to let all tourists her what is our reality.

    We are like all other tribes and people on earth, we deserve respect and freedom.

    We used to sing this song at church in our chilhood, and we still remind of itand wanna believe WE SHALL OVERCOME. Thanks.

  • Vete a hacer politica a otra parte por favor.

    Get out of here and take your crap with you, thanks.

  • Ves a l'infern ignorant!

    Go to hell ignorant!

  • tu que vas a ser lliure si ets un idiota

    que le jodan a tu cultura, la unica que vale es la mia.

  • la llibertat no te res a veure amb l'esclavitud de la politica.

    freedom has nothing to do with politics slavery.

    Liked you or not Catalunya will be free.

    T'agradi o no,troç d'ignorant,Catalunya serà lliure.

  • by the way, are you one of those killers of cultures called spanish, that need to fuck other for you to have a reason to live? i'm sorry you are such amiserable being.

  • A tribute to Martin Luther King, and the black people!

  • Woo-hoo. Great job SC. Love the BOSS.

  • Wonderful, the video and music speaks to the American Spirit. What a tribute to the goal of peace on earth for everyone.

    Thanks Spadecaller!
