Imagine
My ultra conservative history teacher back in HS spent a week on this song. Also discussed Elton John Yellow Brick Road about society moving from agriculture to industrial
We spent 3 weeks just listening to various songs. Best teacher I ever had.

First one that popped into mind for me, too.

I saw the title of the thread and immediately thought, "All of them?" Yeah, that may not be entirely fair. :shrug:

It seems to me Communist and Subversive are two separate things. Yes, Communists used Subversives, but for the most part, the latter opposes whatever authority is in charge, so a natural enemy of Communists at the end of the day.
That being said, most good Rock (real Rock) is Subversive.

I just read the lyrics nothing remotely about communist or subversives.

'Age of Aquarius'
The funny thing with that particular song:
'When the moon is in the seventh house, and Jupiter aligns with Mars, then peace will rule the planets, and love will steer the stars"
Jupiter aligning with Mars... Jupiter is the king star, and Mars is the war star...
That song is saying a whole lot more than it seems to... and it ain't pretty.

The subliminal messaging was working well.

"Share the Land" by the Guess Who. Of course, that one was pretty obvious, but still, it was a mainstream hit.
-
Let's not make this political, right? er, left I mean.
-
Well, there's always This Land Is Your Land.
Number One, Hands Down.
-
Well, there's always This Land Is Your Land.
My favorite alternative verse to that song:
This land is my land
It is not your land
I got a shotgun
And you don't have one
If you don't get off
I'll blow your head off
This land was made for only me

I hate you,
You hate me,
We're a dysfunctional family
Shot Barney with a loaded 44
No more purple dinosaur

Another Pinko anthem...

About anything from Peter, Paul, and Mary. Had a friend drag me to a concert of theirs in the early 90's. Was thoroughly creeped out by all the New Age hippie crap.

And let we forget the full-on commies of Rage Against The Machine, though I like their music.

That's a Bruce Springsteen song, and I've always liked it:

He's still a Pinko.

You ain't doing it right if you're not rich. A non rich pinko is just an out of work bum.

Ugh, I can't listen to a Springsteen song. I think he's awful (and politics have nothing to do with it).
