"Silver and Gold".
:22:57
This song was written in
a hotel room in New York City...
:23:03
around the time a friend
of ours, Little Steven,
:23:06
was putting together a record
of Artists Against Apartheid.
:23:16
lt's a song written about a man...
:23:21
in a shanty town outside Johannesburg.
:23:26
A man who's sick of facing
the guns of white South Africa.
:23:32
A man who is ready to take up arms
against his oppressor.
:23:40
A man who has lost faith in
the peacemakers of the West...
:23:45
while they argue
:23:47
and while they fail to support
a man like Bishop Tutu
:23:52
and his request for economic sanctions
against South Africa.
:23:57
Am l bugging you?
:23:59
l don't mean to bug you.
