Playing For Change rarely fails to nail it... Sara Bareilles records in Central Park with backup from over a good chunk of the world... "What's Going On" indeed.

Okay, folks. Yeah, they shit all over the last day of Pride in the US. Breathe, think, plot, conspire... and sing along with the choruses, because Our Story Is Not Done.

Seanan McGuire and Dead Sexy, "My Story Is Not Done" live at MarCon back before the fit hit the shan.

These ladies have been doing this for FORTY YEARS... well, this particular song for thirty-one... I got to see'em live for the first time tonight. I was the only one around me who went nuts when those drums went off...

I think I'll write a book. :)

Indigo Girls, "Galileo" live.

People on both sides of the pond are highly likely to just *take* the long weekend and not _honour_ it. Herewith I do it at least a perfunctory salute: Playing for Change covers, in their inimitable style, the classic 1971 Marvin Gaye protest song that asks us to consider What's Going On... to have a care.

"Salvation finally came in the form of You’re the Voice: a huge, effusive and strangely timely single that would single-handedly reorient Farnham’s career. Written by the British songwriter Chris Thompson, Icehouse’s Andy Qunta, Procol Harum songwriter Keith Reid and singer-songwriter Maggie Ryder, You’re the Voice was inspired by a 1985 nuclear disarmament rally in London that Thompson missed; saddened that he hadn’t been there to lend support, he began writing a song that he felt captured the spirit of the massive protest."

Hat tip to @kyrielle for this memory... this is probably as close to the version I saw live as it gets - it may well have been on the same tour. And *highly* appropriate for right now.

She said, when you're a hammer [cop], everything looks like a nail. And I remembered a different kind of hammer:

Anarchists, accomplices, and all decent people, Peter Yarrow, Noel Paul Stookey, and the late great Mary Travers 🕯️ : "If I Had a Hammer"

I enjoy the fact that, unlike other , Lightfoot doesn't use sweeping general images. Instead, he focuses in on individual stories of individual people, and the effect of war on each of their lives. He evokes images you can see (of a bride weeping on her bed, a soldier waving from a train), and doesn't rely on any standard rhetoric to make his point.
