"Have you heard it on the news
About this fascist groove thang?
Evil men with racist views
Spreadin' all across the land
Don't just sit there on your ass
Unlock that funky chaindance
Brothers, sisters, shoot your best
We don't need this fascist groove thang"

Song of the Day - No 171
Heaven 17 - We Live So Fast
WIKI
The song is about the fast-paced and materialistic lifestyle of modern society. The lyrics describe how people are always striving for more, and how they never seem to be satisfied. The song also criticizes the way that people are constantly bombarded with images of wealth and success, and how this can lead to feelings of inadequacy.

This is an excellent documentary about the early days of #BEF / #Heaven17 / #TheHumanLeague
It also goes over how - almost by chance - Marsh & Ware ended up recording with #TinaTurner
It blew my mind to find out that it was originally meant to be #JamesBrown singing 'Ball Of Confusion' on 'Music of Quality and Distinction vol. 1'... "What's for you won't go by you", they say

I am always more than happy to hear this #antifa pop classic!

Did malaise ever sound so groovy?

When I was a kid, I'd have nightmares about being firebombed by Nazis, as South Asian families were at that time in Britain.
When #Heaven17 released (We Don't Need This) Fascist Groove Thang, it meant the world to me that a group of WHITE musicians was taking an anti-Nazi, anti-racist stand. This is decades before the discourse of 'allies.'
So, don't hesitate to speak out against injustice when you see it. In your songs, art, conversations, life.
Every time you revolt and resist *counts.*
40 years ago yesterday, Heaven 17 released their second studio album, The Luxury Gap (1983). #Heaven17 #80s #80smusic #boomtownpodcast

der Song hat echt ein kleines Gimmik, wenn es von der Platte kommt
als ich die scheibe auf kasette (die älteren erinnern sich noch) aufnehmen wollte, habe ich das zimmer verlassen
als ich wieder kam war die kasette voll und die platte lief noch🤣 😂 🤣

Crushed By The Wheels of Industry
Work all day or work all night, it's all the same
If you want the pay
(But do you really want the pain)
Some drive tankers, some are bankers
Some are workers, some are not
It is time for a party
Liberation for the nation now
Crushed by the wheels of industry
Crushed by the wheels of industry
Crushed by the wheels of industry
Crush by the wheels (whoa, whoa)
Crushed by the wheels of industry
Crushed by the wheels of industry
Crushed by the wheels of industry
Work, now
