I can't wait to fly away.  Jesus is such a wonderful savior.  Praise God!  If you don't know Him yet, seek Him out today and He won't turn you away.  Then we can all see each other on the other side.
 

When I dialed his number, nobody picked up the phone. I'd say, better heed the classic proverb: "If you need help, look at the end of your arms."

Why is this not a collective 10...who in their right conscience would rate this below a 10?? Its an outrage{#Yell}


Because this recording is a bit lacking, compared to the studio version?

Entirely different from yodeling and alp horns.
 
I like Bombino, but there's nothing wrong with yodeling, alp horns, or Hocus Pocus, for that matter. Now, this song by Bombino should imho be followed by Rachid Taha's "Barra Barra".

A song for a certain President.



Probably for all "presidents" around the world, and throughout time, too, I'd say.

I was inspired by the comments to watch the original by the La's, and their lead singer very much looks like a young version of Klaus Kinski.

Reminds me a bit of "Song to the Sirens", by This Mortal Coil.

Is It O.K.?

It's only just O.K.

Makes me wanna hear the original.


It jarrs on the ears, and yes, I went to listen to the original.

What kind of weirdo would rate this a 1?




Certain religious types would. They really abhor "free will", which is the polar opposite of "obedience to god", at least in their minds.

Just a second here son.  Capitalism is not working and to imply it is a peaceful or even a democratic system is off base.  Look around you and what we see is a concentration of resources, property and certainly power in the hands of a very greedy psychopathic few while ever increasing numbers are forced to go without.  Medical care in the USA is one prime example but there are others to say nothing of endless wars to control resources regardless of the numbers of people slaughtered.  Then there is  the continuing destruction of our climate and environment in the unrestricted use of those resources.  While there are no perfect economic systems what we see now is the utter destruction of life on the planet due to unrestrained capitalism.  Unless we live in a balance with nature and the environment we are doomed. 
 

I agree with your last sentence, but I have come to be convinced that neither communism nor capitalism is going to achieve that.

But the song sounds good, despite (because of?) spreading unwarranted optimism.

The one good Ted Nugent song. Since, he's becoming a raving nutball!
Da Nuge! had a handful of good solo tunes too (Dog Eat Dog, Stranglehold), but yeah, he's pretty crazy.
 

Birdland, Great White Buffalo...

Yeah... how about "Ice Cream Man", or "Atomic Punk"?

Seriously doubt this CD came out in 1787, pretty sure they were still using 8 Track back then.
 

I didn't count, but estimate that it was only something like 22 "track" live performance back then.

As always, you choose to paint all Muslims with the same broad brush. Meanwhile, this week our soldiers in Afghanistan shot and killed 9 little boys who were out gathering wood. And then we wonder why Muslims want to kill us. If a Muslim army occupied the US and killed innocent men, women, and children I suspect we'd hate them for the rest of time.

We reap what we sow. Violence begets violence, and it's too late for Americans to keep blaming Muslims for all our troubles. We need to buck up and take responsibility for our poor judgment.

And we all know how 'tolerant' and 'accepting' Muhammedans are.

Just ask Salman Rushdie.

Or Ayaan Hirsi Ali.

Or Kirk Westergaard.



 


 

I am not American, but unfortunately, it is not purely an issue of "violence begets violence", assuming that peace would beget peace. For my position on religion etc., a Muslim (flatmate for more than a year, even) told me into my face, that the Quran demands that I be killed, and henceforth made great effort to not even be together with me in the same room, much less talk to me. But I could see the glare and anger in his eyes. Yes, you Americans have poor judgement because you favour a rad ical islamic government over a progressive one everytime (not only in Iran), but the world would be much safer if Muslims were not present in our countries.
