Midnight Oil: “Beds are Burning” (subtitled)

This song may appear a bit strange. But to me, it’s a powerful depiction about a human drawing a line in the sand and saying to the dark forces: “no more!!”

An example is Gandalf in Lord of the Rings, when he stood up to Balrog, the fire demon, to save Frodo and friends, proclaiming: “YOU SHALL NOT PASS!!!”

I have a live version of this on CD which I like better.

Powerful stuff!
