Anti-Straw campaign song

[Yusuf Smith]

As-Salaamu 'alaikum everyone,

Can I suggest a good campaign song for the anti-Straw campaign?

There was a soul hit (from the 60s or 70s) called "War" which goes "War! What is it good for? Absolutely nothing!". Substitute Straw for war (and he for it) and there's your song. It's got a call-and-answer format, so a leader could sing parts and the followers could sing others. You should insha Allah be able to find someone who knows how it goes.

Go to http://www.bignoisemusic.com and search Edwin Starr, the song "war" is in the album Classical Soul- Universal masters - cost 99p

and yes get someone to change "war" with "straw" and go around blackburn playing it on loud speakers .. :D
