I love this song. It makes me feel 15 or so again. I love the way Pachelbel's Canon in D is mixed into it subtly under the electronic beat. I love the singer's voice.
I love the memories it brings up - driving to school in Baga's blue escort, the Bass-o-matic; singing loudly; being the alternative kid; the empassioned fanatical devotion to my political causes of youth; skateboarding; my perpetual infatuation with Tony Hawk; Mark Recorvits, my junior high skaterboy crush.
I am bopping my head subconsciously and I love it.
So in honor of Martin Luther King, Jr., and in honor of peace:
All Together Now - The Farm

So in honor of Martin Luther King, Jr., and in honor of peace:
Remember boy that your forefathers died
Lost in millions for a country's pride
But they never mention the trenches of Belgium
When they stopped fighting and they were one
A spirit stronger than war was at work that night
December 1914 cold, clear and bright
Countries' borders were right out of sight
When they joined together and decided not to fight
All together now
All together now
All together now, in no man's land
All together now
All together now
All together now, in no man's land
The same old story again
All those tears shed in vain
Nothing learned and nothing gained
Only hope remains
All together now
All together now
All together now
In no man's land
All together now
All together now
All together now
In no man's land
The boys had their say, they said no
Stop the slaughter let's go home, let's go, let's go
