The first song I stumbled upon on YouTube is said to be controversial in the respective comment section, but – to my mind – it communicates a clear and exemplary message: Stop wringing your hands in despair over generations that have lost their way, morals, and senses, and start bringing about something positive. It really is the question of what is more important… people tend to forget that their time on this planet is rather restricted… – Derek seems to be singing: “‘We can talk and debate till we’re blue in the face – about the language and tradition that He’s coming to save – And meanwhile we sit just like we don’t have give a shit about fifty thousand people who are dying today” – Thanks, Meredith! Oh, you know I’d never leave you – No matter how hard I try – You know I’d never leave you – And that’s just how it is… — langsam zündender Bezirhungssong mit inspirierendem Clip! – (Quelle: YouTube.com, via intro.de) |
