DAMN

The Isley Brother called the track “Ohio - Machine Gun”. The “Ohio” part of the song partly covered the lyrics written by Neil Young, the most famous song about the Kent State shootings: “tin soldier I hear them coming…four dead in Ohio”.  The Hendrix version of “Machine Gun”, largely thought to be a protest against the Vietnam War, also provided a commentary on war in general, with the guitars mimicking the sounds of bullets, bombs and helicopters. In this version, the Isley Brothers also took an anti-war perspective, singing about people running from the war: “bullets flying, children run, mothers screaming…tell me why”, followed by some religious content: “forgive them, they no not what they do”.

softly fading into the landscape as the sunset sets behind the mountains, surrounded by wildflowers that sway gently in the breeze, nature has a way of calming the soul and reminding me of my place in this world
