Category: 向曼德拉致敬 Tribute to Nelson Mandela

在曼德拉服刑期間, 以致獲釋以後, 世界各地均有不少音樂人特地為他創作了不少歌曲。在此我們為大家搜羅有關歌曲, 既是一個回顧, 亦希望能為你帶來新思維。

Many musicians have dedicated songs to M. Mandela both during or after his imprisonment and here we would like to “rekindle” some of these fantastic songs and celebrations as a beautiful memory and inspiration for everyone.

    Lyrics:
    Free Nelson Mandela
    Free free
    Free free free Nelson Mandela
    Free Nelson Mandela

    21 years count to the tee
    Shoes too small to fit his feet
    His body is used but his mind is still free
    You’re so blind that you cannot see
    Free Nelson Mandela

    Visited the causes at the AMC
    Only one man in a large army
    You’re so blind that you cannot see
    You’re so deaf that you cannot hear him
    Free Nelson Mandela

    21 tears count to the tee
    You’re so blind that you cannot see
    You’re so deaf that you cannot hear him
    You’re so dumb that you cannot speak
    Free Nelson Mandela
