A Jordi's post in the SeNSe SeNSo blog (warning: in Catalan) today made me embark on a time travel, to a time not so distant —with the IRA and unionists, and the British army, playing their macabre game in Ulster; apartheid in South Africa—, that apparently and for the time being, as things have changed, has been happily left behind, with all the difficulties, wrongs and rights in the world.
And following with music, I could not avoid connecting this song,
Biko (by Peter Gabriel), to this other one,
Silver & Gold (by U2), probably one of the first reasons for the beginning of a great friendship 20 years ago, at least (Ok, Edge... play the blues!!).
As many others, these are songs that still move me (yes, my eyes fill with tears and my nose starts running). I hope it happens for a long time still.
