WORKERS OF THE WORLD UNITE! YOU HAVE NOTHING TO LOSE BUT YOUR CHAINS!

[gwiwer57]

Power, passion, musicianship and personal agenda all superbly displayed. Bragg at his best. Yes he's traded the rough end of London for the comforts of rural life but he hasn't lost his cutting edge nor sold out on his uncompromising stand against repression of the working class.

[Steelhunky]

Thank God for our Unions!

[jeang287]

Occupy Forever!

[jeffreydebra1]

Listen to this song Scott Walker!

[Derek Zorniak]

I dreamt I saw Joe Hill last night....greatest last word ever spoken to the bastards who shot him: "Fire!"

[PBDCooper]

He is getting older (like all of us) ... but this kind of song has´nt aged a bit since he recorded it in the mid 1980ies. Still leaves a massive impression with me.

[Bundy Bear]

shite if billy is looking old, I must be getting old.... :(

[Shaun Woodley]

When management and unions can work together I call that progression. I have seen it in the past and I believe in it. There was no militancy or extremism. Now, in so called 'democracies' we have 'choice' . You can choose who to appoint Prime Minister or President but it makes no difference because they have to pander to the banks who are more powerful than their own country. Who pays the price? .......we do ...so fuck em.
