Thu 17 January 2008 - Billy
I’m alone in the house, blasting Billy Bragg on the stereo while cleaning up. Part of preparation for the concert on January 30th.
Waiting For The Great Leap Forwards… my God I love that song. Does it speak to everybody in community activism like this?
- For those who haven’t seen it (I hadn’t), here’s the original video clip for the song.
Tank Park Salute, though, saddens me. Ah, the power of good music.

That is one of my all time favourite songs and I can’t believe that’s the first time I’ve seen the clip to it. I also love the new updated version of this song, “if you’ve got a web site, I wanna be on it…”

Ditto, though on reflection I think the clip detracts a bit from the lyrics, so I’ve switched the video on this post for a live version.
