Songs which represent Humanity

Do you have a song which you feel represents Humanity?

I For one feel this peice of music suits us well, we are living on the dawn of a new age, so much new technlogy so fast, once our achievments were measured by 100's of years, now we are finding out new and exciting things in months.

With experts predicting a high chance of detecting intelligent life soon, this song just represents humanity, and the discovery of new and exciting things.

Post your "Music for humanity"

Lyrics:

One day there will be no more pain like an opiate wonderland
No more worry, it will all just end

And all our forward movement will finally cease

The human machine will finally bleed
The human machine will finally cease to be

So set yourself free
And disengage from reality [x2]

The grounds will shake and your children will tremble
Soon enough the machine will fall
And we will all crumble
The human machine will finally bleed and cease to be

We'll finally be set free, be set free, be set free

Just be glad you know what life is!

Be glad you know

You know what life is

You know what life is

One day there will be no worry
No more pain, it will all just end
And all our forward movement will finally cease

Disengage [x7]

tupac, they dont give a **** about us

Every good song represents some facet of humanity.

It being autumn in much of the world (literally and figuratively), here is humanity in autumn, for me:

I can't help but think of Woodstock and where we have gone from there. It's what we pass on to about our children that really matters. We need more subtle songs, with messages of humanity and inspiration.

Kind of a depressing view of humanity in this song, but I love it so I will share it



You gotta be crazy, you gotta have a real need.
You gotta sleep on your toes, and when you're on the street,
You gotta be able to pick out the easy meat with your eyes closed.
And then moving in silently, down wind and out of sight,
You gotta strike when the moment is right without thinking.

And after a while, you can work on points for style.
Like the club tie, and the firm handshake,
A certain look in the eye and an easy smile.
You have to be trusted by the people that you lie to,
So that when they turn their backs on you,
You'll get the chance to put the knife in.

You gotta keep one eye looking over your shoulder.
You know it's going to get harder, and harder, and harder as you
get older.
And in the end you'll pack up and fly down south,
Hide your head in the sand,
Just another sad old man,
All alone and dying of cancer.

And when you loose control, you'll reap the harvest you have sown.
And as the fear grows, the bad blood slows and turns to stone.
And it's too late to lose the weight you used to need to throw
around.
So have a good drown, as you go down, all alone,
Dragged down by the stone.

I gotta admit that I'm a little bit confused.
Sometimes it seems to me as if I'm just being used.
Gotta stay awake, gotta try and shake off this creeping malaise.
If I don't stand my own ground, how can I find my way out of this
maze?

Deaf, dumb, and blind, you just keep on pretending
That everyone's expendable and no-one has a real friend.
And it seems to you the thing to do would be to isolate the winner
And everything's done under the sun,
And you believe at heart, everyone's a killer.

Who was born in a house full of pain.
Who was trained not to spit in the fan.
Who was told what to do by the man.
Who was broken by trained personnel.
Who was fitted with collar and chain.
Who was given a pat on the back.
Who was breaking away from the pack.
Who was only a stranger at home.
Who was ground down in the end.
Who was found dead on the phone.
Who was dragged down by the stone.

Humanity? Something like this...

In a more positive point of view this is what we are deep inside

Hear 'n' aid-Stars




Who cries for the children?
I do
Some time in the night
When you're feeling the cold
Take a look at the sky above you
Those are faces in the light
If the story were told
They are calling you, calling you
Yeah
We are magic in the night


We are shadow, we are light
We are forever you and I
We're stars
We're stars


We can be strong
We are fire and stone
And we all want to touch a rainbow
But singers and songs
Will never change it alone
We are calling you, calling you


We're the beating of a heart
The beginning we're the start
Forever we will shine
Yeah


We're stars
We're stars
We're stars
We're stars




We are magic in the night
We are shadow, we are light
We are forever you and I


We're stars
We're stars
We're stars
We're stars


We're stars, yeah
We're stars
We are shadow, we are light
We're stars
We are magic in the night
We're stars, oh yeah
We're stars
We're stars
We are magic in the night
We're stars
We are shadow, we are light

We're stars
We're stars
We're stars
We're the magic
We're stars
We're stars
We're the beating of a heart

We're stars
Forever we will shine
We're stars
We're stars
We're stars
We're stars

Wow - powerful imagery there trimble

Great Videos and songs, i hope one day when we do come into contact with intelligent life, we may be able to express ourselves through music, of there is indeed a language barrier.

A couple of my favorites by Phil Collins
Another Day in Paradise

It's sad that this is the reaction most people have toward those less fortunate to them.

Land of Confusion

Great video. I like the message.

You're the Voice

John Farnham

We have the chance to turn the pages over
We can write what we wanna write
We gotta make ends meet before we get much older
We're all someone's daughter
We're all someone's son
How long can we look at each other
Down the barrel of a gun?

You're the voice, try and understand it
Make a noise and make it clear
We're not gonna sit in silence
We're not gonna live with fear

This time, you know that we all can stand together
With the power to be powerful
Believing, we can make it better
We're all someone's daughter
We're all someone's son
How long can we look at each other
Down the barrel of a gun?

You're the voice, try and understand it
Make a noise and make it clear
We're not gonna sit in silence
We're not gonna live with fear
