POPSRemember Protest Songs? The Best One You Never Heard! The protest song has played an important role in American history. Anyone old enough to remember Woodstock surely remembers the "I-Feel-Like-I'm-Fixin'-To-Die Rag", and the Fish Cheer that started it off. What ever became of protest songs? Where are they now? There is enough anti-war sentiment to produce some good ones, but the corporations, it seems to me, have choked them off. I know there are some I've missed, but they used to be like flowers in a field... everywhere, and impossible to overlook. The above is, in my opinion, the best post-Viet Nam outright anti-war song I've ever heard, and at 22 years old it is as relevant today as the day it was released. "And the throne, the pulpit, and the politician Create a thirst for power in the common man It's a taste for blood passed off as bravery Or just patriotism hiding bigotry" Where are Woody Guthrie and Pete Seeger when we need them?
