Something to remember, are you willing and able to be that water? Are you willing to have your kin be so as well? If so how much. Just food for thought.
Honestly kinda scary how I didn’t notice the news articles weren’t real until near the end when I realized the posted date hadn’t happened yet and then looked at the upload date
This is a loose cover of "Which Side are You On" by Florence Reece, a union organizer from Harlan County Kentucky. The original chorus goes "workers can you stand it, tell me how you can, will you be a scab, or will you be a man" Kinda diluting the core idea, solidarity, to water it down to some town vs town city vs country thing Florence Reese believed in ONE INDUSTRIAL UNION
This was amazing Was looking for a version of this song that fits my nation and oh boy, this one fitted perfecly, it has been decades and the same thing repeats every 4 years, "in 50 years we wiol be on top" yet it has been 40 and the average folk cant buy a bread, eletricity is now brign provided by third parties that just cause more crime, thousands die every year because of goverment recklessly, sadly our people have either lost their mind and support those rich guys who force us to pay 100% more on products like clothes, or have just lost faith and simply dont care anymore Keep your good work man, you surely make great videos
I pray that this next election won't be this nation's last. I'm not ready, nor is anyone in this country... but hopefully how close we came will mean that more people will be prepared if it's kicked down the road.
YESSSSSS! ITS AMAZING! In all seriousness, you have a wonderful gift. If I may, I think you would absolutely love "Keep Your Rifle by Your Side," perhaps even a cover would be in order. It's just a suggestion though. Nonetheless, I love everything you do, God bless you
This is actually a song I've wanted to do for a while but due to copyright strike concerns I'm not able to do a direct cover, I am still looking into what I can do though...
Ah what a shame. Perhaps an alternative would be an English version of “Nachts Steht Hunger,” I’ve been trying to translate it myself, though this is proving to be difficult
this should be Minnesota's anthem, this state is one massive farmer/logger/miner state with one major city that gets to tell all the farmers what to do because they hold 60% of the population, if our votes where decided by grouse product of every county the story would be different
If you haven't read the lore on the Shanty Boys instrumental you should check it out. The West Minnesota arc is the most believable thing I've heard from him...
Okay, i generally don't watch or even like this stuff, but this one was good! It seems you have to "fix some issues" over there, so good luck! May God be with you.
@@RJStockton Yes, unfortunately. The democratic establishment deliberately suppressed him and shot themselves, and the entire country, in the foot. Bernie had a similar populist appeal to the republican candidate (albeit more genuine), and could have gained supporters that would otherwise have voted for him.
“It’s time for a decision, you really have to choose…” I was holding my breath to figure out if I wandered into that side of the internet again. It all depended on how you finished that rhyme. 😂
I'm really loving all these songs on your channel. I was wondering if you'd consider doing a rendition of "Hanging Tree" (from Hunger Games) as I feel your overall tone and voice would match perfectly with the feelings of the song.
It's actually a song that I'd be interested in doing as well, I may see if I can fit it into either the "Songs of The Second Civil War" Playlist (as an adaptation), or I may have to invent a "Movie and Games" playlist 😅
Hello! I am political scientist and junior historian, and I have spent the last 5 years learning about American governance and American federalism. Whether you like it or not the revolutionary struggle that our forefathers fought for has returned. We are no longer represented by our government, nor taxed fairly. I am going to be writing a book that details an alternative form of governance and economics from our dual federal system. I will keep this updated for its eventual release so my fellow patriots can begin relieving themselves from our current political stagnation into a meaningful American movement of exceptionalism. Where ever you are reading this in the nation, God Bless you, and God Bless our union!
This is surprisingly neutral unlike the original either side could really use this song I feel like it's just another case of both sides of the common people fighting the same fight just against each other.
It's ALWAYS against each other. In every war, ever in recorded history. It's the poor vs the poor with the rich using them as shields, only to shake hands and laugh after the blood is spilled. Anybody talking about a "side" is as lost as a confederate soldier in 1870. "The wars over?! Wtf happened?! Everyone's dead, except the wealthy? Who could have predicted that?
The fire has sparked and it just won't stop burning. I've been awake with an unbidden spite for quite a time, now I hold onto my rifle and wait for the shooting to ring out. And when it does, god pray for me and all those around me... For the war will come, and it will be deathly.
@@jsgv0rt3x19 yeah, but when your talking about ideology you usually refer to it as referring to one side. Also, what ideology do you think it is then?
@@lukebishop7288 some form of agrarianism, but I'm not seeing how nationalism or socialism is present in the story. I know the original song was for union strikers in the US, however, unions aren't fully inherent to socialism, nor are they bound to it.
@@jsgv0rt3x19 I’m aware they were unionists, but there were also many socialists involved I believed, maybe not, after all TH-cam isn’t always the most credible source. But still.
@@Schrödinger10485 it’s written by a socialist and the unions were formed by socialists so the workers could more easily bargain with mine owners which is a large part of socialist ideology Sorry to ruin your gov mandated thoughts but this was a socialist song for socialists
Right wing? "Those government thugs call for martial law, to keep us all in line Only those leaches and tyrants know that they will be fine" "Those rich men and those leaches get richer every year While we, working every day, can’t even afford a beer"
Lol why? You're excited about deepthroating the boss's boot, ir what? By making a "right wing version", you're unironically choosing the side of the boss that the original warned about. But enjoy the boot, I guess 👍
You pervert this song, its a song calling for workers to come together and demand their rights, you would have chosen to die for the coal mine owners. The original strikers and rednecks of that time period are why we have liberty, not you right wing people who support cutting all regulations and oversight from businesses. LIBERTY IS WON IN BLOOD. And your associates wish to nullify their sacrifices, why do you want to return to the time of things like the triple shirt waist fire, and having no labor laws, this is what a lot of right wing politicians want, they only care about money and riches, not you, to them youre nothing but a useful pawn to make them money
in modern times the dynamic has totally flipped, now the city is a liberal center and providing the most pushback to the expansion of government and capital, while the rural areas support the corporatists and fascists who are gutting our country.
@@cageybee7221 I think that any side that is willing to give up their rights or the rights of others is wrong. I really don’t see it as much of a right vs left issue but more Athoritarian vs Libritarian issue.
WTF are you smoking? The liberal cities are screaming "Govern me harder daddy" while siding with Big Pharma and every corporation in America because they put up whatever monthly profile pic is trending. Us folks in the country are warning "keep out of our schools, your poison out of our bodies, and hands off our guns".
This is a terrible, awful bastardization of a great song. You've completely misunderstood what it's about, and you're trying to use it to promote the opposite of the ideas it was written to promote. Notable that you took out all the references to unions.
@@vaaccuummcleaner9214 organized labor is always eventually whats the states have to say because labor union leaders are always co-oped and bought off by the state communist or capitalist the only difference is in a free market the workers have the right to choose what they use their labor on
@@madman026 I'll admit it, you do make a good point. A lot of larger labor unions have been co-opted. (Teamsters, AFL-CIO etc.) However "Which Side Are You On?" was actually created by the wife of a union organizer during the Harlan County War. Given that said county is in West Virginia, they were fighting against both the state and the capitalists. The union was more of a way to get the local workers organized to fight for their rights, as apposed to a way to incorporate workers into the mechanisms of the state. On the other hand, labor unions don't exactly do that any more, so perhaps Alderon Tyran is trying to use the legacy to of rural working folks and their struggle, to justify the actions of modern communists.

you should make a Spotify so that we can listen to you more! amazing work,
can we take a minute to appreciate the lore in these news articles
the tree of liberty must be watered, as they say
Blood makes it grow
Watered with the blood of tyrants! but never forget and must also be watered with the blood of patriots
When things get dirty, clean it with water
When your government get dirty, cleanse it with blood
As they say, sic semper tyrannis
Something to remember, are you willing and able to be that water? Are you willing to have your kin be so as well? If so how much. Just food for thought.
Marty Robbins incarnate singing protest tunes. I dig it.
Reminiscent of Karl Clang, too.
every year this song becomes more relevant
Yep... it ages like a fine wine every time
Day by day
The line about marshal law being declared fits right in with Kaiserreich
I’m slightly shook at how good this is. I literally can’t stop singing the chorus
Honestly kinda scary how I didn’t notice the news articles weren’t real until near the end when I realized the posted date hadn’t happened yet and then looked at the upload date
This may become very relevant in the coming weeks and months…..may all that is holy have mercy on us all

This song's been around since 1941 and the lyrics are truer now than they were then
@doctabyte5370 actually longer than that
Its been around since the early 1930’s. The wife of a known Unionist wrote this song when private police raided her home.
Fuck FDR for getting this great nation involved in the English war of Aggression.
I would love to see like a full lore video/wiki about this alt history of an second American civil war
Alt?
The way things are going, there's nothing alt about this history
