Music Day Episode - Protest Songs With A Social Message: "Tree Of Life, "Redemption Road", "I'm Falling Off Of The World"!
Episode Notes
This Music Day Episode focuses on Protest Songs - songs with a social message. There was a time when artists regularly addressed the issues of the day. Songs like Bob Dylan’s “A Hard Rain’s a-Gonna Fall”, Neil Young’s “Ohio” and Barry McGuire’s “Eve Of Destruction”. The Vietnam War added many others. But protest songs have been on the wane, as artists apparently do not want to alienate any of their audience. But I believe that artists have an obligation to speak out, so this episode features three of my protest/message songs: “Tree Of Life” (guns and mass shootings), “Redemption Road” (divisive politics), and “I’m Falling Off Of The World” (world problems). Let's work together to solve these problems.
