Anyone who plays Bruce Cockburn appreciates music. Bruce was born here in Ottawa and lived here for much of his early days. When I was 16 I snuck into a local coffee house to watch him play. He was good then and then his musicianship flourished and his poetry evolved to try to capture the human condition. I have lost track of the number of times I have seen his show whether solo or with his bands. I am glad his is still getting "airplay" somewhere and alternative venues like RP still let others hear his stuff. Explore his discography I don't think you will be disappointed. But you know I am Canadian, eh.

Bruce! (The Canadian one)

Very funny, you made me laugh.

First, this song isn't about that, has nothing to do with it. It's about a creation dream. As everybody knows, much of Cockburn's lyrics aren't political, much of it is about spirituality or relationships. Which means your outburst is basically off topic trolling.

Second, there's no more Contras and Marxists fighting in Latin America anymore, except maybe for those stupid Shining Pathers in Peru. They're almost all democracies now. Third, these things aren't personal, but you're taking it that way. When someone writes a political song against your work or your cause, it's not personal— their expressing their right to their own opinion in a free country. It only makes you look like a sad idiot who needs professional help when you say you're looking for him through your scope. You're obsessing over a war that's long over, and it makes you look strange. Perhaps you should get professional help before it's too late.

Third, I don't see what you're doing here, considering the content of the majority of songs here probably doesn't meet with your agreement. Maybe you'd be happier at a country radio net station, or somewhere where the content won't ever offend you or trigger your PTSD. Or maybe you're just a freak who wants to get our attention by nonsensical ranting and everything you said is a weird fantasy you made up that never really happened, and you spent the Contra wars in your mother's basement hiding from the sunlight.

Flippin' awesome!
