Well, journalism or rather the lack of ethics in it is an obsession of mine. We tend to get our information from people that aren't educated on the matter they report on, but simply a bit more knowledgeable about it than we are, while their goal is to create an impression, rather than inform. Money makes the world go 'round, but some people should start feeling the moral obligation their profession comes with. War reporting should be something that goes straight to history books, rather than eye watering paperback novels.

Thanks for the review, mate!

I guess it is sorta like a '90s tune. At least around the first half. Well, that was written about five years ago, so it's only about a decade back. :-)

Thanks!

Cheers for the review! You know, it's not the broadcaster's fault and if you think about it, even BBC's main source of income is advertisements. And even if it wasn't, it's not a beneficiary organisation. It has to get money for what it does, and that's selling information.

Another thing I want to promote is political songs. They seem to have eclipsed in the past couple of decades. And the expression of a political opinion through art hasn't been substituted by anything else. Unfortunately, thinking is becoming increasingly passé. The new thing is bling, wheel rims, hoes and bitches, the all time favorites of subjects around love, and last but not least, sexual provocation. Everyone is going back to the roots... Back to the time we were still monkeys.

Thanks for that! Well, you're right. The vocals are low in the mix, but that depends on your stylistic preferences. I've made songs that are pop, where the vocals sit well above anything else in the mix and others (like this one) that they sit together with the rest of the instruments. It depends on what your goal is for each song. This one isn't about showcasing vocal abilities, solos, too complex instrumentation etc. It's about the message. Everything is built around it and trying not to obstruct it. It's a bit less radio-friendly that way, but I didn't intend for it to be in the first place.

I'm glad you liked this! This is really one of the few songs that really mean a lot for me! Cheers!

Thanks for the review! When I made this, I felt the need that this was an underrated subject that needed to be addressed. It's more of a in-your-face political statement than a song. I really think that music has to get over the stage of speaking mostly about love and sex (or in some genres the all so important question of what a pimp the singer is and how fast his rims turn after he stopped his car). The production for this one took quite some time, because I felt that the balances were a bit fragile, but I'm glad that in the end it came out OK. Thanks again for sharing your opinion (and for liking this)!
