Joseph Arthur - We Stand As One (#occupywallstreet)

Protest songs should be open and somewhat naive
They can't help but reference Bob Dylan referencing Woody Guthrie
They usually speak in somewhat general terms
And to be effective at all, they say things that even those coming from a similar space, may not fully agree with.
They are easy targets for the venom of music critics (because of all the reasons above)
And yet still sometimes
They are necessary
So with that I am happy to present you

We Stand As One.

I hope you love it
Or hate it
Or love to hate it
Or let yourself
Hate to love it
but either way,
In some small way,
I hope that it helps.

- Joseph Arthur

The press makes these people important by following them and deforming the public opinion with their nonsense.

Literally the best song ever written. I'm assuming the other people below me are trolling just because WHAT

[Brooke Lorren]

My family makes very little incomewise, but we stand against these OWS people, and even if they try to use my blood as paint, I have no regrets.  They hate anybody who disagrees with them, regardless of income.

Nevertheless, I am not afraid. There is no threat that OWS can make that means anything, because no matter what happens down here, my soul is where it needs to be.

You are all looters,moochers,and parasites! Go away!!!

..you threaten to break down my door and expect me tp stand there quivering with my finger up my butt? Stay out of my hood. I will stay away from your "Occutard Cities' because I can't stand the smell of B.O. and shit but if you spead out as you have threatened, do not expect to find a bunch of cowering "pink people" when you arrive. We are prepared for you, you Nazi wannabes.. And Joseph Arthur needs to be on the Terrorist Watch List..

[Niklas King]

I don't want to share with you people.

come and get it you turd.

[FleebagSlayer]

Time to send OweBama's Worthless Socialists to occupy HELL

[jxwhit8]

And what you won't share Will be ripped from your hands Your body destroyed The way fire lands Burning your homes The privilege you snake The payback beyond Anything you could take Naked you'll be And full of regret And the way they were treated You'll long to forget Really???
