Beds are burning video
I’m currently burning the midnight oil, well at least until another hour from now. And out came from the very low volume setting of my stereo is a familiar song which I think I first heard several years ago when possessing a padded Billboard audio cassette tape is still the “in” thing. Not finding the remote, I tried to listen intently as I try my best to recall who sang the version I’ve learned to love. Guess what. I remember. It’s a new wave era band called…Midnight Oil. Now isn’t that weird.
My curiosity got me to instinctively search the web for who now sings this revival. The result surprised me when I saw a famous yet unlikely name to be linked to any song – Kofi Annan. I soon learned that this song is another advocacy to promote consciousness regarding the current climate change that everyone in the world is now facing. Now I find that not just weird but more like a crossroad for me, this song and my personal commitment to help advocate the need to instill environmental awareness.
Here’s the Beds are burning video from youtube.com and the mp3 file may be downloaded from timeforclimatejustice.org. Enjoy and help preserve our mother earth before it’s too late.
Mood: 2/10 Honks! (just came from an educational trip to the Manila Ocean Park. Will post my review soon.)
