"James Connolly Was There"- Irish Socialist Song
An Irish socialist song about James Connolly, and specifically refers to the 1913 Dublin Lockout (the Transport Union's Strike against William Martin Murphy and other employers for the right to unionise) and also the 1915 Glasgow Rent Strike (more broadly speaking, Red Clydeside) and the Liverpool General Strike in 1911, along with the 1907 Belfast Dockers Strike which was led by James Larkin, another trade unionist of the time.
James Connolly (5 June 1868 - 12 May 1916) was a Scottish born Irish republican, socialist, and trade union leader, executed for his part in the 1916 Easter Rising against British rule in Ireland. He remains an important figure both for the Irish labour movement and for Irish republicanism.
He became an active socialist in Scotland, where he had been born in 1868 to Irish parents. On moving to Ireland in 1896, he established the country's first socialist party, the Irish Socialist Republican Party. It called for an Ireland independent not only of Britain's Crown and Parliament, but also of British "capitalists, landlords and financiers".
From 1905 to 1910, he was a full-time organiser in the United States for the Industrial Workers of the World, choosing its syndicalism over the doctrinaire Marxism of Daniel DeLeon's Socialist Labor Party of America, to which he had been initially drawn. Returning to Ireland, he deputised for James Larkin in organising for the Irish Transport and General Workers Union, first in Belfast and then in Dublin.
In Belfast, he was frustrated in his efforts to draw Protestant workers into an all-Ireland labour and socialist movement but, in the wake of the industrial unrest of 1913, acquired in Dublin what he saw as a new means of striking toward the goal of a Workers' Republic. At the beginning of 1916, he committed the union's militia, the Irish Citizen Army (ICA), to the plans of the Irish Republican Brotherhood, and the Irish Volunteers, for war-time insurrection.
Alongside Patrick Pearse, Connolly commanded the insurrection in Easter of that year from rebel garrison holding Dublin's General Post Office. He was wounded in the fighting and, following the rebel surrender at the end of Easter week, was executed, and martyred, along with the six other signatories to the Proclamation of the Irish Republic.

"I Love Chairman Mao's Works the Most"- Chinese Communist Song (毛主席的书我最爱读)

A Chinese Communist song from the Cultural Revolution. The line "Chairman Mao's rain has nourished me," better translates to "Chairman Mao's dew has nourished me" in Chinese, and is a play on words, as "dew" and "quotations" are homophones.

    A very interesting and intelligent man. Led the Yugoslav army to many great victories, becoming a great thorn in Hitlers' side. Kept the peoples of Yugoslavia together, and the most any history documentary says about him is "He was a dictator." to which my family and I say, "Go shove it up your asses. He was a great leader who didn't bow to either Russia or the USA and founded the League of Independent Nations, to counter NATO and the Warsaw Pact.."
