Week 30 Video Playlist

Two interesting videos in this week’s playlist both at opposite ends of the spectrum. The first is Roam by the B52s: a very fun video with lots of comical content consistent with the general happy light hearted music of the B52s.

The second is the much darker video by Pink Floyd. In fact the content of the Fletcher Memorial Home it could be argued is one of the darkest songs Roger Waters composed and, let’s face it, he wrote some pretty dark stuff.

The song is a protest against all the leaders of the world who send young men to their deaths through the action of war. Both videos are well worth watching.
