The Rebel Black Dot Song o' the Day: SKApril!


Monkey, "Lost at Sea" via iTunes (from Lost at Sea) (The Last Angry Rude Boy)

Skammentary: What I have always loved about ska, in addition to the rhythms that make my soul sing, is that ska has always been music with a conscience, all the way back to the origins in Jamaica.
"…And you know, like I know,
Nobody knows exactly where we stand,
And if we keep on tryin', tryin',
Gonna make this world,
Yeah, we can change this world!
And if you care like I care,
Then maybe this whole wide world understand,
And if we keep on tryin', tryin',
Gonna make this world a better place for Man!"
