One of the best Manics song of them all... :-)Wish folk still wrote protest songs like this... :-)

Richard Strange

I'm not sure about the exact politics of it all but I love this song. Probably the best song on the album.

Their lowest viewed single? No surprise, this was filler stuff.

Alejandro As

Una de las grandes canciones desconocidas para la mayoría. Sublime

James Kirk

True. Britain, while encouraging democracy at home was oppressing her colonies. Most who looked to Soviet Union for support, were not really interested in communism, they just wanted to be free of colonial rule & to determine their own affairs. The USSR supported them with arms and education. Remember most of these countries had to FIGHT for freedom, it wasn't handed to them, and the USSR helped them to do so. Many blacks went to USSR to be educated when it was denied them in their own country.

Some of us are socialists & not members of the Labour Party. We look elsewhere - for values, commitment and truth. I am a communist - not a "supporter of the Soviet Union", whatever that meant [it's a redundant concept, in my day-to-day life, of course - that's plain fact]. Mr Robeson shines bright as a fine example to us. I understand what the 'Manics' understand - we come from the South Wales Valleys and we know where the support has come from. for working people, over many decades.

I always remember listening to this song on radio 1 coming back Manchester from work, I turned the radio on and this was playing, I have turned on the radio in my van thousands of times, so why do I remember this one so well?? The date was 11th September 2001 I always think of that day when I hear this song! Where were you that day?

fuck american hypocrisy. the usa has made a vile habit of overthrowing democratically elected governments and propping up opppressive and murderous regimes.

Nickleby2

you have no right to be condemning a free man for his support of anything. he was not running your country, in fact he had to LEAVE your country to be able to follow his dreams of achieving HUMAN DIGNITY. You have no right to ask the man whose father was a slave, and who suffered emence racism to get a decent education, who or what he should support. how dare you? Who do you think you are? You are still not free if you have no room for political disagreement in our US constitution.

I'm condemning him for his support of the USSR, which was oppressive, so what? Yeah he suffered oppression from America but it doesn't excuse his support for the Soviet Union, though it explains it.

Nickleby2

So is America, and so are you for condeming a man for his political beliefs. Robeson lived in London for 12 years, where he met politicans who were communists and many of them joined the British labour party, the British labour party was born out of communist ideology as did the british labour union, and the British national health Service, the envy of the world. Many communist were voted into parliament as members of the Labour party, some were even Conservative. Were they dirty too.

i love band who pay respect to others, instead of singing about how great they are or their music is!

MARZ8734

@jonnyjaywick Yeah but the Soviet Union was an oppressive regime.

jonnyjaywick

@MARZ8734 robeson went to the ussr to escape the usa's murder, persecution and oppression of black people

MARZ8734

Robeson was a dirty Communist who supported the USSR's murder of millions of people.
