Musical Activism

“You can’t change the world by singing songs. But hopefully we can encourage and inspire the activism that can. Make a real commitment to social change instead of being like the people who buy Sandinista by The Clash and feel like they’ve done their bit.” —Billy Bragg
Musical Expression
“We’re more into expressing ourselves than making a radio hit. We had arguments with people who were saying, “Well, the ear can only listen to a song for three minutes.” That’s a bunch of shit! Look at Pink Floyd or Led Zeppelin; that stuff goes on forever and it’s totally listenable and totally memorable. I’ve never worried about how long the song is.”
