Solution: Everybody buy the CD, play it every day to your children and their friends; talk to them about what they can do to make their home better every day; change their thinking, change their conversation – they grow up thinking a new way, using new words, minds change, homes change, society changes. It can happen. Instead of governments making the change…YOU make the change, WE make the change. Government will HAVE to change.

Proud To Be Bermudian sounds so much like somewhere else’s National Anthem. Like almost everything else called Bermuda culture, it is nothing much more the a ripoff from somewhere else.

So, songwriters are paid royalties when their songs are used – yes? No? If yes, then why in heck are we (and it is we, as in the taxpayer) paying more money to the songwriters? What are we getting in return? Exclusive rights to use the song – so I aint allowed to play it at home anymore? What exactly is in this agreement? And how much did we pay them?

I stand by my comments about the genesis of the song – THE BERMUDIANS.

Unfortunately, the people of Bermuda, especially the majority of those who post on this blog and others are still “livin’ in a system of mayhem and confusion”.

Senator Furbert talked about the first verse of the song : “There’s no denying these are not our best days. So many things gone wrong, it seems we’ve lost our way. But for us this is not how the story end, we’ve braved rough seas before, and we’ll do it again.”
Senator Furbert told ZBM, “In other words these times that were are in now, under the leadership of the Progressive Labour Party government, are not our best times. That’s how I see it.”
“But I will suggest some of the words are nice, but I find some of the words offensive. That is why I cannot support this song, and as I said on the radio, I will not purchase it.”

Lol its cool Laverne ya peoples just bought it for you. I hope its elevator music in the BIU building on REPEAT!

Really?! When did the “hate people that don’t look like us” campeign stop? Was anyone wondering why alcohol sales are up, well here we are, a fine example.
