I'm trying to think of any protest songs you can think of to make a CD out of. I would prefer they be from the Veitnam War era, but any would help.
We Shall Overcome Feeling Like I'm Fixing to Die Rag - Country Joe If I Had a Hammer All We Are Saying Is Give Peace A Chance Volunteers - Jefferson Airplane Ohio - Crosby,Stills, Nash
Are you protesting war, I assume? Here are some good anti-war songs. Some are from the Vietnam era, some are not. Joan Baez - Where Have All The Flowers Gone? Joan Baez - Blowin In The Wind Peter, Paul, and Mary - If I Had A Hammer Bob Dylan - Masters of War Edwin Starr - War Creedence Clearwater Revival - Fortunate Son Eminem - Mosh The Byrds - Turn! Turn! Turn! Bruce Springsteen - Born In the USA The Cranberries - Zombie Eric Bogle - Green Fields of France Barry McGuire - Eve of Destruction
I never understood how Peter, Paul, and Mary's "If I Had a hammer" was an anti-war song.... Peace and Love, Dan
People Gotta Be Free - The Young Rascals Peace Train - Cat Stevens Motherless Child (the woodstock performance) - Richie Havens A New Kind of Army - Anti Flag
Well, I'm not saying it is or isn't but the last verse is... It's the hammer of justice It's the bell of freedom It's the song about love between my brothers and my sisters All over this land
1 =b mc guire" eve of destruction 2=john lennon" give peace a chance 3=joan biaz"drug store truck driving man 4 = donavan"universal soldier 5=bob dylan"masters of war .............peace
theres been many errors in the authors of the protest songs. Blowin in the Wind is by Bob Dylan. Turn!Turn!Turn! is by Pete Seeger and so is If I had a Hammer. With taht being said check out bob dylan for protest songs he has alot of them and they are real good. The best protest song of all time, alot of ppl say, is blowin in the wind by B. Dylan. The Times they are a-changin is a good one, Its Alright Ma is awesome, With God on our Side is amazing, Talkin John Birch Paranoid Blues is a protest song about america's view on communism, Masters of War is nicce, the list goes on P.S. all those were bob dyaln songs.
I was referring to the singer, not the author. Joan Baez's version of "Blowin In the Wind" and Peter, Paul, and Mary's version of "If I Had A Hammer" are vastly superior. Bob Dylan was a great songwriter, but he couldn't sing.
whoaaaa kanadhor dont be foolish, first of all bob dyaln didnt write if i had a hammer and if you ask joan baez she will tell u who's version is better. Bob Dylan is the greatest(I get personally offended when I hear ppl like you), u dont know what your talking about.
