2 songs I'd like to see as YouTube videos for RP

"Its time to change
It cant stay the same
Revolution is my name
It will never change
So here it stays
Forever is my name"

REVOLUTION!
http://ronpaulrecount.blo...

One by U2, acoustic version, how to save a life by the Fray and you get what you give by the new radicals

I always think of our revolution when i hear this song... Too militant maybe? :)

Power in the Blood

No time for spindoctor's medicine
Cooked up by the government, selling me some cover-up
Sponsored information, crack pipes in the shopping malls
Nothing but another drug, a license they can buy and sell

I don't mind dying
I don't mind dying
I don't mind dying
When that call it comes, I will be ready for war

No time for backhanded compliments
From bourgeois apologists desperate for an incident
Real-estate assassins, assessing my predicament
My dollar bills dependant upon it being in their interest

I don't mind dying
I don't mind dying
I don't mind dying
When that call it comes, I will be ready for war

CHORUS

There is power in the blood, justice in the sword
When that call it comes, I will be ready for war
Power in the blood, justice in the sword
When that call it comes, I will be ready

I will raise mah sword up right
To the bright and shining light,
Stained crimson red with the blood of the unredeemed
And as I cut them limb from limb, and I dash all their kith and kin,
You know, their bodies I will bury in the deep
Because there's power in the blood.
There's power in the blood.

My wife suggested this song weeks ago and I have yet to post...this seems to be the perfect place to do it.

Somebody please make a video out of this one...the lyrics are powerful and the song rocks...

"Love is the Movement" Switchfoot

Good day in LA
and millions of faces are looking for movement
'cause everythings stuck, and everythings frozen and everyone's broken
and nobody moves and everyones scared that the motion will never come
this is an incompletion, stuck in time

Chorus

Love is the movement, Love is a revolution
this is redemption, we don't have to slow back down

(etc)

Some sections could definately be used for a powerful video, especially the chorus

by Crystal Gayle

Looks like I wasn't the only one with this thought on my head :-)
I remember seeing one video a while back on youtube that said 'We Are Ron Paul'
I thought that would've gone perfect with the lyrics to Invincible by Muse

During the struggle
They will pull us down
Please, please
Let's use this chance
To turn things around
And tonight
We can truly say
Together we're invincible

Then as its saying that last line have it say in the video
'We Are Ron Paul...
...together we're invincible.'
I thought'd it be pretty cool :-)

Here are the rest of the lyrics for those interested. Also check the song out. Very motivating and uplifting.

Follow through
Make your dreams come true
Don't give up the fight
You will be alright
Cause there's no one like you in the universe

Don't be afraid
What your mind consumes
You should make a stand
Stand up for what you believe
And tonight
We can truly say
Together we're invincible

During the struggle
They will pull us down
But please, please
Lets use this chance
To turn things around
And tonight
We can truly say
Together we're invincible

Do it on your own
It makes no difference to me
What you leave behind
What you choose to be
And whatever they say
Your souls unbreakable

During the struggle
They will pull us down
But please, please
Let use this chance
To turn things around
And tonight
We can truly say
Together we're invincible

Together we're invincible

During the struggle
They will pull us down
Please, please
Let use this chance
To turn things around
And tonight
We can truly say
Together we're invincible

Together we're invincible

"Don't pursue happiness. Create it."

The classic by Stealers Wheel, "Stuck In The Middle With You." For obvious libertarian reasons, if you've ever seen a Nolan Chart. :)

has the lyrics.

Doing Afrika Bambaatta's 'Renegades of Funk.'

No matter how hard you try, you can't stop us now!
No matter how hard you try, you can't stop us now!

We're the renegades of this time and age
It's the time and age of renegades
We're the renegades of this time and age
It's the time and age of renegades

Since the Prehistoric ages and the days of ancient Greece
Right down through the Middle Ages
Planet earth kept going through changes
And then the renaissance came, the times continued to change
Nothing stayed the same, but there were always renegades
Like Chief Sitting Bull, Tom Paine
Dr. Martin Luther King, RON PAUL
They were renegades of their time and age
The mighty Renegades

We're the renegades of funk
(funk!funk!funk!)
We're the renegades of funk
(funk!funk!funk!)

We're the renegades of funk
(funk!funk!funk!)
We're the renegades of funk
(funk!funk!funk!)

From a different solar system many many galaxies away
We are the force of another creation
A new musical revelation
And we're on this musical mission to help the others listen
And groove from land to land singin' electronic chants like
Zulu nation
Revelations
Destroy all nations(x6)

Now renegades are the people with their own philosophies
They change the course of history
Everyday people like you and me
We're the renegades we're the people
With our own philosophies
We change the course of history
Everyday people like you and me
C'mon!

We're the renegades of funk
(funk!funk!funk!)
We're the renegades of funk
(funk!funk!funk!)

by Bob Marley
Perfect for the MLK weekend

"get up, stand up don't give up the fight..."

WAR PIGS.....Black Sabbath

"Rise Today"

The wind is blowing cold
Have we lost our way tonight?
Have we lost our hope to sorrow?

Feels like we're all alone
Running further from what's right
And there are no more heroes to follow

So what are we becoming?
Where did we go wrong?

[Chorus:]
Yeah, oh yeah
I want to rise today
And change this world

Yeah, oh yeah
Oh, won't you rise today
And change this world?

The sun is beating down
Are we ever gonna change
Can we stop the blood from running?

Our time is running out
Hope we find a better way
Before we find we're left with nothing

For every life that's taken
So much love is wasted

[Chorus:]
Yeah, oh yeah
I want to rise today
And change this world

Yeah, oh yeah
So won't you rise today
And change

This world
Only love can set it right
This world
If only peace would never die

Seems to me that we've got each other wrong
Was the enemy just your brother all along?

[Chorus:]
Yeah, oh yeah
I want to rise today
And change this world

Yeah, oh yeah
Oh won't you rise today
And change this world?

Yeah, oh yeah
I want to rise today
And change this world

Yeah, oh yeah
I want to rise today
And change this world

1. You've got another thing commin'

2. Revolution

Originally done by Woodie Guthrie, but remade by Wilco and Billy Bragg.

This song always gets me going.

I’m gonna tell you fascists
You may be surprised
The people in this world
Are getting organized
You’re bound to lose
You fascists bound to lose

Race hatred cannot stop us
This one thing we know
Your poll tax and Jim Crow
And greed has got to go
You’re bound to lose
You fascists bound to lose.

All of you fascists bound to lose:
I said, all of you fascists bound to lose:
Yes sir, all of you fascists bound to lose:
You’re bound to lose! You fascists:
Bound to lose!

People of every color
Marching side to side
Marching ‘cross these fields
Where a million fascists dies
You’re bound to lose
You fascists bound to lose!

I’m going into this battle
And take my union gun
We’ll end this world of slavery
Before this battle’s won
You’re bound to lose
You fascists bound to lose!

Where is the Rudy Library and the Mitt Library. Has anyone found them? Do we even know if they can write?

They've used this track in the Bourne movie series and else where.

again the other day and it's perfect!

Sunshine- by Jonathon Edwards

http://sarahbrighteyes.co...

Sunshine go away today
I don't feel much like dancin'
Some man's gone, he's trying to run my life
He don't know what he's askin'

He tells me I better get in line
Can't hear what he's sayin
When I grow up I'm gonna make it mine
Or these ain't dues I been payin'

How much does it cost?
I'll buy it
The time is all we've lost
I'll try it
And he can't even run his own life
I'll be damned if he'll run mine
S u n s h i n e

Sunshine go away today
I don't feel much like dancin'
Some man's gone, he's trying to run my life
He don't know what he's askin'

working starts to make me wonder where
fruits of what i do, are going"
He says in love and war all is fair
hes got cards he ain't showing"

How much does it cost?
I'll buy it
The time is all we've lost
I'll try it
And he can't even run his own life
I'll be damned if he'll run mine
S u n s h i n e

Sunshine come on back some other day
I promise you I'll be singin
This old world she's gonna turn around
Brand new bells will be ringin'

Survivor - Eye of The Tiger!!!

It had Mr. T scared!

by John Lennon

But "Take the power back" by Rage Against the Machine is untoppable.

How about "Paper Money" by Montrose
http://youtube.com/watch?...

Poor audio on this old 1974 clip, but Sammy Hagar sings:
"I've got a million dollar reserve note in my hand... I can't stand it"
"Take away my silver, take away my gold, paper money just won't hold"

'Wind of Change'...Scorpions

"Land of Confusion" - Disturbed

"None are so hopelessly enslaved as those who falsely believe they are free." - Goethe

... with Dr. Paul dancing like Michael "Lord of the Dance" Flatley... but I don't think he has time to tape it before SC...

Flatley luv... Go Dr. Paul!

...by a Welsh band called Manic Street Preachers. The song is titled "If You Tolerate This Then Your Children Will Be Next." Great song, I think everyone should listen to it.

The Retrocon
Hope for America, Ron Paul for President in 2008!

"Believe"-The Bravery
"Timebomb"-Beck

Please someone make this!

I was listening to XM80's back in September while watching the donors and donations rolling in during the end of the 3rd Quarter. Shortly after the $1 Million mark was reached, a song I remember from High School came on. It was "Breakin: There's no Stoppin Us" by Ollie and Jerry (from the Breakin Soundtrack). As the song was playing and the donations were coming in, I couldn't help but think that that song would make a good campaign theme or a good YouTube video. Unfortunately, I lack the skills to make such a video. Maybe someone else can.

System of a Down- B.Y.O.B.

Lamb of God- Now you've got something to die for
- As the Palaces burn
-ashes of the wake
-art of ruin

Lamb of God has a lot of great anti-iraq war, anti-american empire songs that would work great in a hard hitting youtube video

Ide like to see more videos with Tom Petty's "In The Air." This song is revolutionary, yet not vindictive, and would get across the love and goodwill of the movement.

A little more vindictive would be Muse's "Time is Running Out." Also a very good song!

"bury it
I won't let you bury it
I won't let you smother it
I won't let you murder it

our time is running out
our time is running out
you can't push it underground
you can't stop it screaming out"

Another good one would be "Born for This" by Paramore... I liked that song before I knew about RP, but now it's just ridiculously DEAD on... it even talks about the media bias part, and it was written before any of this went down!

"Simply the Best" - Tina Turner
"Lovelife" - Lush
"September" - Earth, Wind and Fire

bonus
"I Need You" - LeAnn Rimes
"Nobody Does it Better" - Carly Simon

"None are so hopelessly enslaved as those who falsely believe they are free." - Goethe

lunatic fringe by red rider....

listen to the words....pretty neat. describes us :-)

http://www.youtube.com/wa...

horrible 80's video

lyrics...roughly

Lunatic fringe
I know you're out there
You're in hiding
And you hold your meetings
We can hear you coming
We know what you're after
We're wise to you this time
We won't let you kill the laughter.

Lunatic fringe
In the twilight's last gleaming
This is open season
But you won't get too far
We know you've got to blame someone
For your own confusion
But we're on guard this time
Against your final solution

We can hear you coming
(We can hear you coming)
No you're not going to win this time
We can hear the footsteps
(We can hear the footsteps)
Way out along the walkway
Lunatic fringe
We know you're out there
But in these new dark ages
There will still be light

An eye for an eye;
Well before you go under...
Can you feel the resistance?
Can you feel the thunder?

Jesus Jones - Right here, Right now
Cranberries - Zombie
Bee Gees - would love to see RP walking down the street to theme from Stayin Alive
Mellencamp has some great songs that would fit but he had Edwards at his concert

*Anyone get a hold of Willie Nelson?? Figured with the marijuana and tax issues, he'd be all kinds of on the wagon. He's also buddies with Kinky Friedman, who likes RP

"Victory for liberty! That is our goal, and nothing less. -- Ron Paul, December 17, 2007"

I always hear Redemption Song by Bob Marley in my head when I read on paul. I think that would be a great song.

Heres a lyric,"Emancipate yourself from mental slavery, none but ourselves can free our minds." - Great song!

Those who would give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.
