Paid Members WWFChilli Posted July 19, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted July 19, 2011 Just starting this topic after listening to Edwin Starr's incredible anti-nam song "War". Personally it's one of my favourite songs ever. Anyone else here a fan? Â We all love a good protest song deep down (probably) so does anyone have any faves and why? Get a bit of discussion I guess.

Paid Members Lefty Posted July 19, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted July 19, 2011 Not only a great protest song, and particularly relevant during the eighties but Maggie's farm by Bob Dylan is one of my favorite songs ever.

Paid Members Burchill's Buddy Posted July 19, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted July 19, 2011 What a strange coincidence, I'm currently enjoying a Dylan binge as his "Essential Bob Dylan 3.0" has been released on Spotify. So I'll go with  Bob Dylan - Hurricane  Although thinking about it a bit more,  U2 -  Is fucking superb on every level Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
