Babu Menos — Not Again (Breakdown № 2)

“Not Again” is a protest song expressing great concern about the resurgence of far-right, fascist ideology and propaganda, while at the same time giving a hopeful outlook on the power people have when they connect, unite, and solidarise. It will be released tomorrow, for the last time through all the commercial channels like Spotify®, Apple®, Amazon® and the like. After that, I will only release to Bandcamp, Mirlo, and jam⁠.⁠coop. This is a breakdown of the first verse and first chorus; here’s the lyrics: *Ninety years ago men in brown took over* *Killed and maimed from Crete up to almost Dover* *All the beauty, all the brilliance, all the kindness* *Smashed by mindless* *Fear of humanity, hate for humans* *Not again* *Hist’ry don’t need repeat* *Not again* *We can’t afford defeat* *Not again* *Don’t go back down that road* *Not again* *Humans are much — better than that* — CREDITS — Artwork Babu Menos, watercolour painting by Ludwig Hohlwein (poster “Der Stahlhelm, 1
