My Country Right Or Wrong: 9/11 Memorial Tribute

To contact us Click HERE
I posted this a bit less than a month ago after sending these requests as tweets.


A series of 9/11 Memorial requests and dedications that I directed to West Coast Powerhouse "eclectic" station---the "adventurous" KCRW.

I don't think they'll get played, or relayed, so enjoy them here.

The Bradley Manning support group turned me on to some of this music by sending me a CD when I sent away for their petitions/flyers/buttons/stickers package. The CD Peace Not War Vol. 2, Track 5, What Would You Do, is the second selection in the set.

Music had been dead to me for so many years and I was in such a deep depression when this CD reached me. I swear it made me alive again. In the same kind of way that learning what Brad Manning did made me feel alive again. I can't thank Bradley Manning enough for the music...but he is only one person, only one hero. There are so many heroes right now. Many of them speak out publicly on that 9/11 documentary even though speaking out on 9/11 has gotten many people dead. That is bravery, that is heroism, that is patriotism.


The videos of these songs are well worth watching. There is some real artistry on YouTube.

(I have an extra cd of the LOL mix.)




Was it just a dream, were you so confused/Was it just a giant leap of logic
Was it the time of year, that makes a state of fear/Methods were the motives for the action

And did I hear you say
My country right or wrong

Did you save your face/Did you breach your faith
Women, there were children at the shelter
Now who can stop the hail/When human senses fail/There was never any warning, no escape

Did I hear you say
My country right or wrong
My country oh so strong
My country going wrong
My country right or wrong





I hear you say the truth must take a beating

The flag a camouflage for your deceiving
I know, yes I know

It's written on your soul

I know, we all make mistakes

This is not a case of blurred vision
It's a case of black holes, pocket holes, soul holes

And did I hear you say...
