A beautiful song with a really great message.

Always beautiful songs, nice work Bengt 👌

You’re vocals always sound so endearing and are wonderful to listen too

Another essential battle, as important for women as it is for us! The power of the message is reinforced by the sweetness of the singing and the quality of the music (well done on the harmonica!!)!!!

Great song Bengt. complete agree with the sentiment. Your protest songs are now legendary. johnny

Pleasant & well written track.  A rare but meaningful subject we normally find in songs.  Brilliant performance.

Hey all guys, hope you agree with me - that all girls should be treated fairly!
I don't think I need to specify which places are referred to in this song!
A picture of my daughters little puppy dog - Solveig!

 How are They Doing

There was a great time when they felt that life was wonderful
they could walk on the streets without
any person who was spying on them
but now it’s not such a good time
They can’t do what they want
and they can’t wear the clothes they love

How come it has been such a big change concerning rules for girls
maybe it is depending on
the guys who are ruling their land
it is not easy to understand
The girls can’t do what they want
and they can’t study what they need

The world must protest against these men who are ruling there
maybe they have never listened to their mum
when she told them how everything should be
they have ignored all what she said
The girls can’t do what they want
and they can’t study medicine


Lyrics in Swedish

Hur mår de?

Det var en fantastisk tid när de tyckte att livet var underbart.
De kunde gå på gatorna utan
någon som spionerade på dem.
Men nu är det inte så bra.
De kan inte göra vad de vill.
Och de kan inte bära de kläder de älskar.

Hur kommer det sig att det har varit en så stor förändring gällande regler för flickor?
Kanske beror det på
killarna som styr deras land.
Det är inte lätt att förstå.
Flickorna kan inte göra vad de vill.
Och de kan inte studera vad de behöver.

Världen måste protestera mot dessa män som styr där.
Kanske har de aldrig lyssnat på sin mamma.
När hon berättade för dem hur allting borde vara.
De har ignorerat allt hon sa.
Flickorna kan inte göra vad de vill.
Och de kan inte studera medicin.

FIRST OF ALL, I WILL SAY THANK YOU VERY MUCH TO ALL WONDERFUL PEOPLE THAT LISTEN TO MY SONGS - LOVE YOU ALL!!

Dear friends, I worry more and more about the state of the earth! More and more wars flare up, the climate is worrying with natural disasters as a result! Strong malevolent rulers emerge and succeed in egging the population of the respective countries. History has shown how it goes - I think of such men as Hitler and others! The war causes huge emissions of greenhouse gases! Instead, use the soldiers to plant trees and fight the terrible forest fires!

The Baltic Sea is living dangerously right now! Scores of ships in deplorable condition transport oil across the sea. The risks are great for extensive oil disasters! I have made some songs for the Baltic sea just to make people understand the problems.

I have recently published some of my songs on YouTube - search for Bengt Roth.

I write almost all of my songs, and I sing my songs and play the guitar and the harp - no more. My recording equipment is quite modest with a Furch guitar, Alhambra guitar, Röde microphone, Focusrite and Garageband. My studio is our guest room in our house.
I was young during the 1960s when Dylan became famous. I was a member of a folk song group during that time. I love Dylan´s music!! I was also a big fan of The Doors, Jefferson Airplane, Mamas and the Papas and several more singers. I like folk music and the old protest songs. I love the music of Eva Cassidy. I was also a big fan of Björn Afzelius, and I love the music of Tom Petty. I am very inspired of the music of John Denver.
Bengt and certainly several 100 million people are intensively protesting against all evil around the world!
I love to sometimes write songs that are a bit weird and self-ironic!
You know that I am a novice in the "recording business", and sometimes I have to revise the songs.
My whole grown up life was occupied by my profession as a doctor in intensive care and anesthesiology. I was head of the department of Intensive and perioperative Care in Lund, Sweden the last years. After that I have got the possibility to be dedicated to music. 
My songs are a matter of extreme happiness and extreme sadness. I write all the music and lyrics except "As tears go by", "House of the Rising Sun", and songs by Evert Taube.
I love to leave some message with my songs!
I have no previous experience of writing fiction. I have, however, some experience in writing non-fiction. I wrote my thesis, and some chapters in a textbook in anesthesiology. I was also member of a group who introduced an education program in pediatric cardio pulmonary resuscitation for laymen in Sweden.
I have created a repost page "Bengt Erik Roth Repost Page".
