Bakunin Posted June 30, 2005 Report Posted June 30, 2005 "Liberate us of the liberal" or in french "Libérez-Nous des Libéraux" Ok, its a very funny story , its a political song that was made from a quebec music band. The band was not very known when it was made but these day, they are known evrywhere in quebec. Its a rap/hip-hop style music band a bit like the beastie boys, they made that song and the riff, "Libérez-Nous des Libéraux" is very catchy. One day they were invited to the most popular talk show in quebec and they played the the song, then since both of our government are liberal and both are doing a bad job, it didn't take long to spread evrywhere to the radio, in other tv show, the news, political assembly, in manifestation, in the strikes, evrywhere... In not even 1 year, they became famous, one of the most active band in the artist community. I just tought it was a funny story , the riff is just too much catchy once you hear it, it can't get out of your head. The best thing its that the song can be used to protest against both the federal and the proincial government I think its one of the small thing that made the liberal impopularity in quebec a gueniss record these day. Ok, the band is called Loco Locass, they are giving the song for free on their website. here if you want to download it: http://www.locolocass.net/mp3/liberez-nous...iberaux_128.mp3 Right click "save target as" Quote

Riverwind Posted June 30, 2005 Report Posted June 30, 2005 lol, the funiest thing is they are going to play for one of the canada day concert Nothing wrong with good polictial paraody at Canada Day celebrations. I am assuming the song is primarily anti-Liberal not anti-Canada. Quote To fly a plane, you need both a left wing and a right wing.

I am assuming the song is primarily anti-Liberal not anti-Canada. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Its a political music group, actually they are sovreignist, not anti-canada but pro sovreign quebec and it can be felt almost evrywhere in many song. I read today in the newspaper, its not really a canada day celebrations, its more a community celebrations. The problem is that on the ads, the celebration was linked to the canada day celebration. There are sovreignist that will sing at the real canada day celebration but at least they don't sing pro-sovreignist song. Quote
