Billy Bragg ~ I Guess I Planted


I guess i planted some long lonesome Seed of a song Way down inside me long ago And now i can't remember when it was But it joined up with the rest of them and grows It's such a little song it don't compare With all your big ones you hear everywhere But when it dawns way in the back of your mind The big ones are made up of the little kind Union song. union battled. All added up. won us what we got now I can't even start to look around me here Without hearing this song And seeing all of us first separated, Hurt, apart and afraid And hungry for the union And so we kept on Singing and working, fighting till we got it. And this is the big union song i guess i hear. We fought there at your place We fought there on your ship And i guess if you missed out on The fight for our union, You missed out on one awful big step Us people took.

I guess i planted some long lonesome
Seed of a song
Way down inside me long ago
And now i can't remember when it was
But it joined up with the rest of them and grows
It's such a little song it don't compare
With all your big ones you hear everywhere
But when it dawns way in the back of your mind
The big ones are made up of the little kind

Union song. union battled.
All added up. won us what we got now

I can't even start to look around me here
Without hearing this song
And seeing all of us first separated,
Hurt, apart and afraid
And hungry for the union
And so we kept on
Singing and working, fighting till we got it.
And this is the big union song i guess i hear.

We fought there at your place
We fought there on your ship
And i guess if you missed out on
The fight for our union,
You missed out on one awful big step
Us people took.

Globalized Sounds

Today, beautiful European and American music, an Afrobeats recorded in Lagos, can play in headphones in Tokyo; a South Korean idol group can fill an Argentine stadium to capacity. On Spotify, the playback volume of African music has increased by 500% in five years; K-pop has already transcended the Asian border and become a common language for young people all over the world; Latin music has consistently topped the streaming charts for several consecutive years. The world is getting smaller while the scope of music is expanding.

The Power of the Scene

When the lights dim and the first note is played, strangers become synchronized. The tremor when thousands sing together, and the melody that still echoes after the crowd disperses - this is an experience that no screen can convey. We look forward to the return of large-scale concerts to the essence of music, and we also look forward to small livehouses continuing to nourish the most vibrant soil of music.

Crossing Borders

Music transcends languages - even if you don't understand the lyrics, you can still shed tears or dance. It transcends cultures - the drumbeats of Nigeria and the chants of Iceland coexist under the same sky. It transcends generations - a song from half a century ago can still bring tears to the eyes of today's young people.

We Create Together

The future of global music is not determined by algorithms, nor is it monopolized by a few giants. It is shaped by every person who presses the play button. Maintain your curiosity, step out of your comfort zone. Support independent musicians and attend live performances. Seek connections through music - because we believe that a song can change a day, and music can change the world.
