Witty way of illustrating the thought processes of the ruling class and how they push it on the rest of us...well put :)

“Stand Up Radio” – serving your right of information in a musical way

This is the full group playlist 2011 - 2016 part 1 - tracks 1 - 500 (2011 - 2014). The first track is the earliest track that was posted and never got un-posted or re-posted. The list holds 771 tracks with a message. It may spotlight news facts via informative lyrics, considerations, reflections on social or environmental themes, ancient knowledge and modern protest songs.

The second, last and relatively newest part of the Stand Up Radio playlist is https://soundcloud.com/sketches-from-holland/sets/stand-up-radio-part-2-2015

Hear and share your insights about what is really going on in the world, instead of what the main stream media are trying to make you believe as the (whole) truth.

Content is more important than musical quality.

Start your own discussion in the forum or leave your comment to the tracks. If you want to contribute, please do so. Please note that your track is musically/thematic/lyrically relevant to Stand Up Radio.

ABOUT MODERATING THE GROUP
Please only post tracks that go with the concept of this theme group. For a appropriate approval it helps if:
- lyrics are posted with the track 
- instrumentals include a description about the intension of the produced piece
- the posted track is not over 7 minutes long
- the title gives a clue of the content
A track may get disapproved if it is not clear what the track comprehends.
If a member posts multiple tracks that have no connection with the theme of this channel he/she risks a bann for this group only. This is only to keep the group clean and to remain able moderating this group regularly and efficiently.

Languages other than English, Dutch or German are not too easy for me to understand. If your contribution has been turned down and you think this is not right please send me a message :)

PERSONAL ADD
My initiative to Stand Up Radio comes: 
a) from my own wish to express myself musically with lyrics that put people to think further about the happenings in the world, in stead off only reading the regular news and believing this is the only thing needed to be known. 
b) from my wish to join musicians with a similar want and to form a musical alternative news channel together for everybody to listen to.

Stand Up Radio - full GROUP tracklist - PART I  (2011 --> 2014 )

Not sure if this track makes a political point...and let's face it, the way the Western media portrays things, none of us has a clue about what's really going on in Libya....I was just struck by the utter contrast in the way Western leaders and Qaddafi spoke.  But no matter whether one speaks with control or with passion, war is war.

Steve channels his finest Lennon harmonies, I stand on one leg to play flute, Steve rips up a wicked melodic guitar solo all in homage to The Hairy Man...

Protest against Barnet Council's plans to close libraries and build Europe's biggest rubbish plant in the woods at Pinkham Way.
Please send photos of yourself holding up a placard with one of the words from the song in front of the Town Hall, library, or Pinkham Way proposed site, and email them to info@dammitmusic.com. We'll include them in the video.

If It Doesn't Make A Profit it Can't Be Any Good

This we know for sure
Starting now, I will let you down
Starting now, I will let you down

Windows thick with ice
We don't need them
Or their paradise

I've been bitten twice
By the man with the demon eyes
We got there, soaked and paralysed

Just give me all you've got
I am tired of warning shots
And being polite
I'll tell you who you are
The remnants of a magnetar
A wasted life

Solid Ground

Punchy, social comment song. Political, without leaning in any particular direction.

Bicircular - Twist Of Fate (feat. Leanne Kelly)

As Dr Martin Luther King Jr states so eloquently 'I am convinced that if we are to get on the right side of the world revolution we as a nation must undergo a radical revolution of values.' This was as valid 4 decades ago as it is today – and not just for the USA. 

Fold - A Revolution of Values (ft. Dr Martin Luther King Jr)

Eyewitness testimonies from American veterans of the Iraqi War make it clear how so many civilians died. The rules of engagement were not those that we heard on the news. These soldiers aren't psychopathss. They're scared, disorientated, angry and armed. The people who put them there are the war criminals.


Winter Soldiers, Dave McKeown

    I have several exciting projects just bubbling under, but nothing new this week. Here instead is an oldie from about 5 years ago you may not have heard before. Just in case anyone's losing patience with Obama in 2012 it's always good to be reminded of what went before...

Welcome to Mike Spring’s corner of in-your-face songwriting

This page is inspired by the charm of pure songwriting. It is about the creating of a song, improvised music and raw demo’s. Naked not afraid ;)

‘Sketches from Holland’ is created by MIKE SPRING. This page holds raw recordings of original songs played live solely or invented in the heat of the moment. Tracks may be mono and not mixed. 
Once my inspiration is lit into a song idea a musical train starts rolling off hill. Often I finish a piece. Sometimes it stays a sketch and is forgotten about many years.

Thank you for listening!
