[Zero Cool]

No Surrender......

Brits out

 

[CalcuoCuchicheo]

Don't worry man, I wasn't being too serious with the old 'No Surrender' comment.

Still, I'd love to have some of the foreigners read the lyrics in some of our songs - that is Protestant/Catholic, Rangers/Celtic - just to see how violent & venomous they really are.


Anyways, after reading the posts in this thread I wanted to highlight AnarchistFunk's choice of Peter Tosh's 'No Nuclear War' as I had tried to get people in the Bob Marley thread to listen to his & Jimmy Cliff's music. Top choice my man.
