Revolution 1-The Beatles-1968
-
You say you want a revolution
Well, you know
We all want to change the world
You tell me that it’s evolution
Well, you know
We all want to change the world
But when you talk about destruction
Don’t you know that you can count me out
Don’t you know it’s gonna be all right?
Don’t you know it’s gonna be all right?
Don’t you know it’s gonna be all right?
You say you got a real solution
Well, you know
We’d all love to see the plan
You ask me for a contribution
Well, you know
We’re all doing what we can
But if you want money for people with minds that hate
All I can tell you is brother you have to wait
You say you’ll change the constitution
Well, you know
We’d all love to change your head
You tell me it’s the institution
Well, you know
You better free your mind instead
But if you go carrying pictures of Chairman Mao
You ain’t going to make it with anyone anyhow
Perfect setup in 1998 for the coming 24 hour news and the internet of showing the sleaze and narcissism of Washington DC or any other world capital. Rinse and repeat.
Sorry 1988
Bump
one of the best albums. Queensryche was a really good band. Saw them live a couple of times good shows.
We did go see them live on this tour. Denver's Big Mac arena. Great show!
Big blowup full of lawsuits would later take place between their operatic lead singer Geoff Tate and the rest of the band.
Guess I had stopped listening to current “music” a couple years before that.
Heck Yeah!
Operation Mindcrime is an incredible masterpiece album. It’s unfortunate that Queensryche went the way of the dodo soon after. Nothing they ever did could reach the brilliance of this album. But I guess that’s what makes an epic album.
Their album “The warning” was very end time oriented.
Bkmk
Bfl
IMHO “Mindcrime” is their best album. I have seen them many times. When DeGarmo left the band it was all downhill for them. Thanks for posting this. It brings me down memory lane. A great time in my life. No internet. No smartphones. Ammo was cheap.
Cheers.
