I love this song, but the audience in this video gives one pause. They're like Stepford teenagers. Are they stoned? Are they native Norwegian speakers who don't have the slightest idea what he's singing about? Do they just find the song too sobering? But it's the best rendition of the song that I've found on YouTube.
Proud to be a public school teacher for 26 years, I see teaching as a radical act. Practitioner of Neo-schoolmarmism. School Library Media Specialist. I am a convinced Quaker, born again agnostic, mother of 3 daughters, passionate about issues of peace and social justice. My mom was a "red diaper baby", my dad was a conscientious objector during WW2, and I grew up in the thick of anti-war protests in Madison, Wisconsin in the sixties. Not a Republican bone in my body and not many Democratic ones either.
