The ultimate protest song of my misspent yout.
“For what it’s worth” is a song about the hippie riots on Sunset Strip in LA, not Vietnam.
Are you implying it is NOT a political protest song? Back in the day, people also used it for protesting the war.
Golden Ribbons
Loggins and Messina
Delores had such a great voice. Gone way too soon.
Political/protest for who exactly? Everyone has a message, right?
One of the first albums I ever bought.
This could qualify for partial CRTC Mandated Content*
Had to look that up. Not political but my favorite example being from NC of that would be this. Its hilarious.
This was a protest against almost all the wrongs in seems in song form:
The royalties of single went to the orphan homes in Romania along with other artists who contributed on a benefit album,also on Use Your Illusion 2.
Yep, changing the world, one pop hit at a time.
Rage against the machine . . . that we’re limo lib Bernie bro cog$ in.

WARRIOR SOUL
This fight’s for you and me
In the land of the free
The rock minority
Against hypocrisy
They crucify our words
But they don’t understand
We want a better world
And a share of our land
They point at us
But we’re their children
We fight because
They taught us to be free
The land where our fathers died
The land of the pilgrims’ pride
Forced us to decide
If we stand or if we hide
That was our high school anthem.
…and don’t forget they weren’t all protests, in the beginning there was a lot of support for the war
Late to the party…..but,

Had no chance to see myself
Molded day by day

I am the one, Orgasmatron
The outstretched grasping hand
My image is of agony
My servants rape the land
Obsequious and arrogant
Clandestine and vain
Two thousand years of misery
Of torture in my name
Hypocrisy made paramount
Paranoia the law
My name is called religion
Sadistic, sacred whore
I twist the truth, I rule the world
My crown is called deceit
I am the emperor of lies
You grovel at my feet
I rob you and I slaughter you
Your downfall is my gain
And still you play the sycophant
And revel in my pain
And all my promises are lies
All my love is hate
I am the politician
And I decide your fate
I march before a martyred world
An army for the fight
I speak of great heroic days
Of victory and might
I hold a banner drenched in blood
I urge you to be brave
I lead you to your destiny
I lead you to your grave
Your bones will build my palace
Your eyes will stud my crown
For I am Mars, the God of war
And I will cut you down
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Abolish the state.
War is a racket.
Resistance is not futile; it is essential.

I don’t believe anyone has mentioned my favorite.
