Songs to Change A Twisted World

I am trying to be upbeat, but cannot really find it within myself at this time. The World is a mess. Suffering and warfare are the order of the day for many millions of people, while starvation and famine afflict many others. Naturally, I am one of the lucky few on the outside of this day to day torment looking in. I am grateful and yet ashamed. Needless to say, I do not have it within myself to rant today. I have much I could rage on about, but today I cannot bear it. Instead, I have been compiling a playlist of music which I think could help to change the world. If anything can, it is music - music which is a a near universal to the globe, one of the things that sets us above other animals and humanizes us. Well, anyway, if these songs were heeded, what a world we would live in today! Without further ado:

1. For What It's Worth - Buffalo Springfield
2. Anni Kookoo - Xavier Rudd
3. The Price of Oil - Billy Bragg
4. Pete Seeger - Where Have All the Flowers Gone
5. Universal Soldier - Donavan
6. Guerilla Radio - Rage Against the Machine
7. Guantanamo - State Radio
8. Money Worries - Bedouin Soundclash
9. Better Way - Ben Harper
10. If I Had a Rocket Launcher - Bruce Cockburn
11. Camilo - State Radio
12. The Times They Are A Changin' - Bob Dylan
13. Born in the USA - Bruce Springsteen
14. Call it Democracy - Bruce Cockburn
15. There Were Roses - Tommy Sands
16. If I Were President - Wyclef Jean
17. The Rebel Jesus - Jackson Browne
18. Down to Earth - Peter Gabriel
19. Blowin' In the Wind - Bob Dylan

Well, there they are. Songs that I truly believe can make a difference. Please find them and listen to their message. From equality to anti-war, to the environment the idea is to spread the word of change, while there is still a chance that we, the people, can still change the world. We must, and we have to believe that we can, otherwise it is all lost and the Corpocracy has won.
