Oh man, this song is so cool! How has no one commented?
This is the story of an outspoken activist rock star, who's radical ideas were enough to get him assassinated.
Lots of Golden Earring songs have really terrible lyrics. This is a glaring exception -- some of the verses are hauntingly good. "That song called kill me" -- like he's painting a target on his forehead, and then the biblical comparison. It's very potent stuff, this song. All-round awesome.
