Hey guys,

So for school I need to write about songs that show protest. So far I have Bloody Sunday by U2. If anyone has any other songs or bands the snow protest, they would be great to know.

Thanks

A lot early Bob Dylan songs. His "finger-pointing" ones.

Times They Are A-Changin, It's Alright Ma (I'm Only Crying), Masters of War, Talking World War III Blues, Lonesome Death of Hattie Carrol, Ballad of Hollis Brown, Only A Pawn In Their Game, etc.

During the summer, this song was on repeat constantly. Some more I just thought of whilst sifting through my itunes:

What's Going On - Marvin Gaye
Ohio - CSNY
Give Peace A Chance - John Lennon
John Sinclair - John Lennon
This Land Is Your Land - Woody Guthrie
A Hard Rain's A-Gonna Fall - Bob Dylan

And of course, Fortunate Son by CCR.

this thread is rather pointless as just any protest song is far too generic, it would be nice if the protest songs tied into a particular catagory/purpose.
