“Yes to dance beneath a diamond sky with one hand waving free…” for this alone Bob Dylan deserves the Nobel Prize
—> Billy Bragg on Twitter
Stephen William “Billy” Bragg (born 20 December 1957) is an English singer-songwriter and left-wing activist. His music blends elements of folk music, punk rock and protest songs, with lyrics that mostly span political or romantic themes. His music is heavily centred on bringing about change and involving the younger generation in activist causes.
Lay Down Your Weary Tune
Lay down your weary tune, lay down
Lay down the song you strum
And rest yourself ‘neath the strength of strings
No voice can hope to hum
This Wheel’s On Fire
KT Tunstall & Billy Bragg
If your memory serves you well, we’re going to meet again and wait
So I’m going to unpack all my things and sit before it gets too late
When The Ship Comes In
Oh, the time will come up
When the winds will stop
And the breeze will cease to be breathin’
Don’t Think Twice It’s Alright
It ain’t no use to sit and wonder why, babe
It don’t matter, anyhow
