Johnny909 - Neda (You Will Not Defeat The People)

This video is originally recorded by Johnny909 (big respect!), and I made this video. The original you can find here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ivdKvsW2kmM

If John Kennedy was alive today he would say, "I am an Iranian!" A woman called Neda died on the streets of Tehran this weekend. This is the real cost of freedom. This is not something many of us understand, I don't think. I have not felt this moved in my memory. Long live Neda!

NEDA (You Will Not Defeat The People!)

Neda was a young girl
She would not wear the hijab
She walked out on the streets of Tehran
To join the madding crowd

She felt a burning fire in her chest
And her blood began to flow
You will not defeat the people
When their lust for freedom grows

Down down go the concrete statues
Watch the faceless soldiers run
You will not defeat the people
With the bullets from your guns

Neda was a young girl
Her eyes were black as coal
She walked out on to the streets of Tehran
To take back some control

Watch her father with her face in his hands
Scream her name out to the sky
You will not defeat the people
When they learn that they can fly

(First verse again...)

You will not defeat the people
When it's freedom that they know
You will not defeat the people
Crying Neda in the streets
You will not defeat the people
Crying Neda in their sleep.

Where did Johnny909 go?

[SeanAriadne17]

i think there's nothing wrong with the religion is all about the government and the people's behind it.

just a tip guys if you have a so much power specially if you are a greedy person, its impossible to listen to the people around you. and to NEDA may God give peace upon you. well at lease muslim people are starting to be open minded. which is good..

Ja, Pete gut gemacht, aber leider leidet dort das Volk und braucht dringende internationale Unterstützung.

Yes, Pete you're right but the suffering people need urgent international support.
