Quick Style - Piya Piya Calling Whenever I pass by your city It’s the sight of you I yearn to see I hug your photo earnestly As I take leave from your gathering Do you remember him who loved you insanely?

October 28, 2024Oct 28 Author BJSC 169: Moddi - A Matter of Habit Cruelty is a matter of habit The more you've seen it, the better you're at it Every boy has a tyrant's desire Hands behind the head, legs spread wide These are times of danger, times of despair No room for compassion, a soldier can't care Our neighbors are vermin, they're used to the blood How can they feel pain when they're living in the mud? Through cruel routine a soldier is born Ignorance soon turns to evil in war Israel's land is for Israel's kin Cruelty comes as a natural thing Learning to love is a natural thing It will find a way if you just let it in It will be strange at first, but then you'll see it That learning to love is a matter of being Being human is a matter of habit A few baby steps, then you get better at it To be for one minute, just now, just recall The opposite side of the towering walls But our hearts have hardened along with our skin We built a bubble and let no one else in We'll be staring in wonder as the angel falls Then being human will be a matter of course Will be a matter of course nLesWYPkUqQ The song A Matter of Habbit sung by Norwegian Singer-Songwriter Moddi is a cover of an Israeli song made by Izhar Ashdot. Izhar Ashdot is probably the closest thing to a rock-star Israel has, everyone knows atleast one song by him, regardless of age. The lyrics are based on stories and reports told by different Israeli soldiers. These soldiers are part of an organization called Breaking The Silence, a group of ex-soldiers who want to end the occupation of Palestinian land. When Ashdot went to perform at one of the biggest radio stations in 2012, Galatz, the station commander turned the song away, despite being the one to invite him in the first place – as a consolidation price he was allowed to perform another of his songs. In the aftermath, Galatz, realised the following statement: “There is no room at Galatz for a song that degrades and condemns those who have sacrificed their lives for the fatherland”. After all, the radio station was a station for soldiers and by soldiers, not at all a place where one could criticise those who protected the nation. This version was released 8 years ago, and unfortunately the song still is current with the attacks and counter attacks in Gaza. the West Bank and Lebanon.

December 2, 2024Dec 2 Author BJSC 170: Nahaba - VesniankaOh, springYou horrible springWhat did you bring us? Your brought us dark fatesAnd pools of bloodA wreath for a little childA dead daughter for an old womanMountains of enemy corpsesThose who are killing the spirit of disobedience Ruins for the landlordsBoys are dying in the fieldFunerals for a coupleTears for the young girlsFrom one conflict to another. We have moved our way to Ukraine this time. The duo Nahaba participated in this years national final to represent Ukraine with "Glasss" a song that I was considering until I found "Vesnianka". This song, like "Glasss" tells a tragic story that mirrors the lives of Ukrainians amidst the backdrop of the war that is happening. Both singers in this song do a very good job expressing both the despair and anger about the attacks that are happening. Very chilling to listen to. Hope this a discovery for some of you!
