Bruce is one of those rare birds who really sinks his teeth deep into the truth. Some people need to be scared. Real scared. Incompetence, inadequacy and bad intentions must not be ignored or accepted. Evil is as evil does and Bruce Cockburn has been exposing it for decades.
I've listened to Bruce, well, since the beginning and maybe I should have said this a long time ago. If Bruce is a good representation of Canada and Canadians (which I believe he is) YOU GUYS ROCK! Expertly played smart rock, rock with an IQ, what a concept.
Canadian musicians occupy much of my favorite music . . . and some of them I didn't even know were Canadian until I found out later. Yes, I like Bruce here, but also The Guess Who, Leonard Cohen, Joni Mitchell, the Stampeders, Gordon Lightfoot, Neil Young, Buffy Sainte-Marie, Crash Test Dummies, BTO, etc. And I always tend to forget to name a few.
The biggest problem is that we have all been trained since birth to believe that Canada and the united States is a democracy. This is a half truth. Canada is a Constitutional Monarchy and the united States is a Republic where each individual can be free. The definition of free is to be under no legal restraint. The form of government each country has is a democracy. The government was never to interfere with the people, their rights or their property. If you are not a legal person, then you must figure out why the democracy (babylon) has control over you. You can not be seen as one of God's people if you have consented to be governed by a foreign jurisdiction.
Too f'in funny!!!!! Hahahahaha No wonder I got 'bitchy'..... after, I got 'Cat Scratch Fever' Hahahahaha Call it out brothers!!!!! Whoohooo!!!!!! Went through the whole roll, to come back home, and I am not backing down now. Thank you.
This fantastic Bruce Cockburn song is more relevant today than ever. Perhaps the best lyric ever written to sum up the world we are part of .And of course so few people even know it exists as it goes completely against he mainstream narrative . Now we have Mr Trump leader of the free democratic world [my ass], more like front man for the Mega industrial/Big Business corporation monster. The system is truly the beast .Lots of love from the Tripzville Godz check out our track "System is the beast" here on youtube.
He's not afraid to say what needs to be said......
This man is pure poetic genius. BRUCE COCKBURN FOR PRIME MINISTER OF CANADA.
Wow blast from my past! I love Bruce!
Still relevant today. Timeless like so many of Bruce's songs.
Both a beautiful bit of guitar work, and a thesis.
So current too! October 2023!
"Idolatry of Ideology". Always relevant, I'm afraid. Thanks Bruce, for telling us the way it truly is!!

We need a lot more artists to sing songs of redemption and information like this
I think we need Bruce more than ever. He says what need to be says.
18 years later it still has to been said
one of his best and strongest songs
agreed postcards from cambodia is equally good in my view.
Bruce Cockburn Prime Minister of the WORLD.
Food, shelter, peace, poetry, and guitars for everyone, YEAH!!
Love you Bruce and your plight for justice ....
Precious and beautiful artist. Honored to have met him several times ❤

NICE SONGS AND LYRICS BRAVO! When I first heard it on radio I thought it was Peter Murphy (of Bauhaus) singing.They definetly have similar voices
Bravoooooooo!
great song he was years ahead on this as only now with Trump are we seeing how bad it has been now for years while most of us never noticed
Thanks for your honest and sincere love towards my work,we have you to be most thankful for . 💓🙏
Still makes sense to me
relevant , for ever more !!!!!
I wish Bruce wouldn't be so cryptic. He should just say what he really means.
Yeah...don't hold back, now
if the man were to run for Prime Minister he would have my vote a thousand times over
The one dislike is from ted nugent.
Lol! Indeed

Went through the whole roll, to come back home, and I am not backing down now.
Thank you.
Oh, and peace to Ted.
Get over it, and smoke a bowl.
Eugenic missionaries always come back around.

I wanna learn this and sing it in church.

When are we rising up?
I think this was the Montreal jazz festival. I think.
Check out "Leave It All Behind" - an anti-bailout song. Search "Bankrupt Is The New Black".
