News from Uncut with one week to go until doomsday: “David Crosby has posted a new song Capitol. Crosby confirmed on Twitter he was working on “a new song about our shameful US. Congress” on January 10. The song was mixed on January 11 and uploaded onto Soundcloud earlier today (January 13). As promised, the song addresses corruption within the American Congress:
“They’ll ignore the Constitution and hide behind the scenes
Anything to stay a part of the machine
And you think to yourself, this is where it happens
They run the whole damn thing from here”
I think I am actually going to do this
New song about our shameful US. Congress
Going to mix it day after tomorrow
