O Superman

O superman is my reaction to 9/11 and a critisizm of American Foreign Policy. It uses Laurie Andersons song of the same name written 20 years before the event. The relevance of the words is striking and eerie.

Thank you to those of you who have posted positve support for this video that was created 6 months after 9-1-1.

Thank you to Laurie Anderson for her inspiring and prescient "O Superman".

Thank you to those whose who have posted thoughtful critisism.

To those who have posted nasty,mindless, kneejerk, critisism, please crawl back into whatever hole you climbed out of...

Time has proved my critisism of Americal and Israeli foreign policy more relavant than ever!

Time has only sweetened O Superman

Stunning vid.

I never realised Laurie A's masterpiece for what it was, until nfarky turned it into this masterpiece.

Sorry banyera, but where were you and your anti-dick-president cohorts when we in the UK suffered Hyde Park, Brighton, Warrington, Inniskillen and everywhere else that terrorists made their mark in the UK ?

Where were you when Adams and McGuiness - our Bin Ladens - were openly being feted in Boston ?

That's a wrong of 9/11 - it should have come home to roost in Boston, not NYC.

@banyera Wasn't MASH about Korea? A UN led action?

@Jimbo386000 Firstly , Many appologies..If you read my comment properly , I blame the UK Government , NOT JUST the US , for Much of what went on before , EQUALLY .

RE - Vietnam , if the US wasnt ASHAMED of Vietnam , why so many films about it , plus watch the series "MASH" , US made.!! - I could Cry.!!

Check my own Video named "Angel Island" and listen to the Lyrics...!!

I have many friends in the US,Japan and Germany , despite these attrocities .

I have Grown "UP" , Not "Bitter"..!!

To nfarky:  I have always loved this song - and your video illustrates it beautifully - clever you.

@banyera Way to make it seem like everyone in america is a prick. Cause of course we all like to hurt and kill shit. Ignorant person. I do not like to fight, I do not like pain or violence. Rethink acting like you're all better than us because you live in the UK. I'm sure you would have not gotten involved if it wasn't for him, but we probably never would have gotten involved in these stupid wars if we never had those dicks as presidents. Don't you dare generalize us all that way.

Excellent video. A classic song from the superb Laurie Anderson.
