Two very good friends of mine are involved in this new recording: Richard Strange, (who some fans will recall from the '70s band 'Doctors Of Madness' who supported Be Bop Deluxe' on one of our early tours,) and John Leckie who co-produced Be Bop's albums with me, (as well as producing the Doctors).This is a new song and rails against the rise of right-wing politics in the world today. Great stuff...check it out! ;-)
"Doctors of Madness new single 'Make It Stop!’ Produced by John Leckie and featuring backing vocals by Joe Elliott of Def Leppard, and protest singer Lily Bud, is an impassioned howl against the global drift to right wing extremism and persecution of minorities.
It is out today.

Cool song and promo. Couldn’t help notice a Templar Cross at approximately the 1:52 mark
Guess I see it in a more inclusive light - that all human endeavors should be stopped - that all of them are right wing in someone's eye. I think the conundrum is that when you get power, you can be seen as the same thing that you were working to change/defeat or a variation thereof. Maybe that's how they keep the wheel spinning...but would you stop it - considering that it helps maintain your and all life? Catch 22.
Subversive Big Brother speak - "Find your group, and do your best to maintain a favorable place in that group, or you could be offered up by your group for ""favors"" from another group in the negotiations to maintain the (illusory) privileges/ideas/ways of living/actions of your group, Just keep in mind that you are all (more or less) wards?prisoners of the state/nation/etc!"
(Some of you are going to die for the freedoms that I will provide - more or less from the song The Knife from the album Trespass by Genesis.)
Me again - Ah the joys of being an Exile on Mainstreet or the Fool in a Tarot deck - the choice of guises are so many....Possible Be Bop's Harlequin?????!!!! LOL
Subversive Big Brother speak - And don't have too many insights or we'll use you as a universal scapegoat (Joker in a deck of cards). - You know, dumb yourself down to household ideas, leave the ruling of your lives to your ??betters?? (or just more perverted - those rising up to think they could make a difference - be royalty or God - or the like or dislike as the case may be - and in some cases thinking they could become Big Brother/Sister/Whatever. Remember Big Brother/Computer AI is watching/monitoring....
Don't you wish you had a say in the programming - that' right you have the vote...….?????...….!!!!!
Remember Big Brother/Computer AI is watching/monitoring, on all levels, even cosmic and psychedelic.
Me again - Would that Jonathan Swift or "1948" Aldous Huxley were available for comment! LOL
