How could this happen that it wasn't here previously?

Shame on You, fellow YouTubers!

Equinox sun. Summers of fun

No mortgage repayments to weigh my mind

And if it all fell through tomorrow

Put my pack on my back

And it's home where the lunatics roam

Faith, faith moved a mountain

Where the rivers are so clean

And the consciousness so green

And the luminous folk shine like

Lanterns of hope

Lanterns of hope shine on

Lanterns of hope

Ribbons of wishes, tied to the trees

Hives full of honey, yield to the seed

And if it all fell through tomorrow

Put my pack on my back

And it's home where the lunatics roam

Faith, faith moved a mountain

Where the rivers are so clean

And the consciousness so green

And the luminous folk shine like

Lanterns of hope

Lanterns of hope shine on

Lanterns of hope

Fire, fire light the lantern

When we drink from the streams

And we grow our own greens

And the fences have all been torn down

Lanterns of hope (x8).

Brilliant, listen to the acoustic riff played electrical on 4:22. The attention for detail that 9 out of 10 don't even notice! Eric.!

It's a sad and yet happy picture of how to cope with the inevitable toll that life will take from you from the stress, worries and sorrows it gives us. Is it going to drive you crazy? Don't mind that, just get ready for what comes next, even if that means being brought to the Funny Farm, think of it as a journey where you'll meet many people like you, with their stories to share, an enlightening experience if you will. Or simply it's a beautiful, happy and yet sad song to be enjoyed as it is.

For once, I can say that "Democracy" introduced me to the Killing Joke. That says it all.

The intro is very similar to "Going Down to Die" by Danzig. Love both bands

It's great album. Now Pandemonium is weak. Beyond Pandemonium and Jana the whole album is derivative of the bands KJ influenced.

Their best album is What's THIS for...... with Night Time second, with the first album a close third......IMO.

Nothing JK has done will ever equal their early 80's work IMO.

Except their best album came out in 2003. I will concede that after that release it's been pretty substandard (though still enjoyable).

@jarmoje Blind devotion. Funny how some people just refuse to admit when thier heroes have become repetitive and obvious. Don't fret, it happens to ALL bands, no matter how great they are.

@SCROGY Bull fucking shit! KJ has done many essential records after '96.

@regnier123 Agreed. It was their last great album. Pandemonium sucked because KJ started ripping off all the bands they INFLUENCED. The only good song(s) on Pandemonium was Pandemonium and Jana. Democracy was very strong overall. Lots of great songs and they got away from copying the bands they influenced and actually got back to being KJ and CREATING rather than copying.
