5. I don't know if the corporate media
wants to keep me from listening to Chumbawumpa , Pink, and Mellencamp, but I'll give it a listen anyway.

My favorite anti WW3 song is the beautiful "Do the Right Thing" from the late 70's by Ricky Grant http://firecorner.dyndns.org/firecorner_hungry_town.mp3

right click, save link and paste into your player. Then fast forward to about 18:30 if you don't want to download the massive file.

6. :)
I really wanted to keep the page contemporary.

My own personal fav is John Lennon's Give Peace a Chance.

15. Jerry Joseph - Yellow Ribbons
This song was written in 1991 during the first gulf war...meant to post it in the other thread.

Yellow Ribbons
Lyrics by Jerry Joseph & Daniel Hutchens

Collateral damage...
It's easy to say
Shoot everybody...
That gets in your way
Back at the Press Pool...
They're Alcohol Free
Dreaming up headlines...
About you and me

Out on the tarmac...
To welcome him home
You had them believe...
You went it alone
Well all of those nights...
You were calling my name
You got yellow ribbons...
But you ain't got no shame

You could tie a yellow ribbon around your bedpost
You could tie a yellow ribbon around the antenna of your car
You could tie a yellow ribbon...

But there ain't no yellow ribbons around your heart

Got a picture of you...
Got a flag in your hand
I call it a slaughter...
You call it a stand
You say that you love me...
I think you got nerve
You're so fucking precious...
Getting what you deserve

You could tie a yellow ribbon like a blindfold
You could tie a yellow ribbon in a bow up in your hair
You could tie a yellow ribbon...

But they're only yellow ribbons I don't care

Well they're shooting off fireworks...
It's the Fourth of July
The Star Spangled Banner...
Brings a tear to your eye
How many children are willing to die...
Before you pack up all your ribbons...
Say goodbye
