Official music video from The EP "Beautiful Blues" by The Amanda Emblem Experiment
The Revolution is on its way.
This footage shot while in Europe 2015, when I wrote this song. At the time 1000's of refugees were spilling out of Serbia through the European countries. We travelled the same routes and their plight touched me greatly, along with the horrific stories of the War in Yugoslavia, with very open wounds still evident for all to see. This eye opening experience has a profound affect on me. This song and video is not comfortable to watch and listen to, nor should it be. I recently found the original poem that I wrote on the road. It's very different to the lyrics and I've included some of it in the video.
The plight of refugees is a contentious issue here in Australia. I fear now with covid-19 that the poor treatment and apathetic, mean and inhumane attitudes towards displaced peoples grows with our own isolation. This makes me very sad and I hope that people still continue to strive for a united humanity without war and death.
This song was recorded by Diva Demolition (while I was the main songwriter in the band) and was released without my consent in 2017. I'm proud to revisit/rerelease it and give it the attention it deserves. I remember being on a train and composing the grinding beat on my iPad. This song, like so many displaced people has been on a long journey. I'm very glad it's come home.
