a girl came to steal it
the boys play music
the girls sing
hey! girl with the beautiful black hair
come and dance with me"
Day 14 of the Covid19 quarantine: "Mooi Weer" by Jaune Toujours, performed by Piet Maris.
Partially about war in former Yugoslavia, end of the '90's, but especially about the contrast between the different situation at some 1000s of kilometers distance: the same beautiful spring weather under the same blue sky, but within a totally different peace/war situation... And not a minor detail, with the frontiers and checkpoints completely closed, leaving people on their own, in unacceptable conditions... Nothing's changed: war's still going on somewhere, and even if ours is mainly against a virus, people are still stuck at borders ànd outside, on the streets, in unacceptable conditions...
From the album Barricade (2004) by Jaune Toujours
