WAR

One of my favorite bands is WAR. They play funk, soul, jazz and reggae music. I think their most popular songs are “Low Rider” and "Why can't we be friends?", but they have a lot of 70's hits. Yesterday, I heard the complete album "The World is a Ghetto", and I love them more. This album is more instrumental and very funky, but they always introduce the multicultural features.

Their lyrics regularly present the social subject, a characteristic that all the bands in the 70’ have. My favorite song of this album is the one with the same name. I can close my eyes and feel every instrument. I can start moving very slowly and enjoy every single note.

Some Lyrics:

“Wonder when I'll find paradise
Somewhere there's a home sweet and nice
Wonder if I'll find happiness
Never give it up now I guess
Don't you know that it's true
That for me and for you
The world is a ghetto”
