"...Meanwhile, I still find the song clip I included very moving and as to your comments - "Frankly my dear, I don't give a damn!"...."


Eddie, Eddie, Eddie...

Look, I did *not* mean the you guys weren't getting the music out. What I meant was that we all know the songs are out there, but the *mainstream* Radio and TV stations refuse to play them, because they're now deemed 'too political'...or at least, they are on the BBC.

It's people like you, who I regard as The Last DJs, the ones who *are* doing all they can to get the music out, who have the freedom of choice and have decided to use it to the best of your ability.

Heck, you all give me hope!

So, I'm sorry if I put it down wrongly, it was the mainstream that I was talking about, where protest songs once filled the airwaves, but now no longer do.

Without you guys, there'd be no hope at all. *You Guys* are some of my heroes!

Oh..and 'frankly my dear, I *do* give a damn!"   x
