Adriano | When minds collide

This is a rough translation, and with “rough”, I mean, I translated it to rhyme. Some changes had to be made to the content of the lyrics and it is not complete.

[Torch]
Now is the time, here is the place
yeah, this is the night, Torchmann’s on the case
The thought of germany at night, is just enough to give me fright
-my brother Adriano was killed at night

Skin color: black, blood: red, silence is gold
Thoughts are deep blue. a citizens fear of country is cold
a winter fairytale from Germany with blue velvet
Persona non grata in my own land, i’ve felt it
Operation Artikel 3 - a laugh for the nation
man, it’s part of my life, not our imaginations
all these years we wasted time as radio guests
one could think us rappers really got no good to express
it’ll venge, you’ll see, one day we’ll get it on our own
Unity makes strong, Adriano died alone

[G.E.R.M.]
once your life is hanging, dangling from a silken thread
all over your body, warnsignals tingle and spread
the time is ripe when your heads no longer have prices
so let’s start getting our act together and commence with strategic devices

Surveillance the enemy and slowly reveal them by their choices
words are like the wind but only deeds have voices
we’re not gonna wait, digging holes with axes
let us make it clear: you’ll pay your karma like taxes

Chorus: [Xavier Naidoo]
This is somewhat of a final warning
‘cuz our hit back’s been long in planning
we’ll show up where you show existence
and finally show your brown shit our resistance
‘cuz what you seek is the end-game
and what we give, is our rounded fists to end shame
may your downfall be binding
and what we hear be your pity cries and your whining

[Tyron Rickets]
Remembering the past, a resistance lacking vitality
today ther’s enough brothers with the right mentality
trying hard at a jump to power for a foundation
by making politics law and economics their vocation

In all the tongues of illumination, the laughter quit
Is awakening the change in the year of dragon spit?
60 million slaves of which 8 million made it
the best now live amongst you, I hope that you’re not jaded

[Sékou]
How many more men must die pass by the public eye
On both sides of the Atlantic watch the panic multiply
Walk on by we divided supposed to coincide
Sideline observers disturbers trying to stay alive
I realised at a young age life’s design maze like
But its amazing the way hate spreads when its been raised right
Without day light the truths often hard to swallow
Why we sending out our love to Amadou and Adriano

I will be doing a follow up video soon for more clarification on this subject. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VQmyGrDIW5k Viacom vs you. Google must divulge the viewing habits of every user who has ever watched any video on YouTube, a US court has ruled. The ruling comes as part of Google's legal battle with Viacom over allegations of copyright infringement. Digital rights group the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) called the ruling a "set-back to privacy rights". The viewing log, which will be handed to Viacom, contains the log-in ID of users, the computer IP address (online identifier) and video clip details. While the legal battle between the two firms is being contested in the US, it is thought the ruling will apply to YouTube users and their viewing habits everywhere. Viacom, which owns MTV and Paramount Pictures, has alleged that YouTube is guilty of massive copyright infringement. The UK's Premier League association is also seeking class action status with Viacom on the issue, alleging YouTube, which was bought by Google in 2006, has been used to watch football highlights. Legal action When it initiated legal action in March 2007 Viacom said it had identified about 160,000 unauthorised clips of its programmes on the website, which had been viewed more than 1.5 billion times. Following the launch of its billion-dollar lawsuit, YouTube introduced filtering tools in an effort to prevent copyright materials from appearing on the site. The US court declined Viacom's request that Google be forced to hand over the source code of YouTube, saying it was a "trade secret" that should not be disclosed. But it said privacy concerns expressed by Google about handing over the log were "speculative". Google's senior litigation counsel Catherine Lacavera said in a statement: "We are disappointed the court granted Viacom's over-reaching demand for viewing history. "We will ask Viacom to respect users' privacy and allow us to anonymise the logs before producing them under the court's order." The ruling will see the viewing habits of millions of YouTube users given to Viacom, totalling more than 12 terabytes of data. Viacom said it wanted the data to "compare the attractiveness of allegedly infringing video with that of non-infringing videos." YouTube and Google had "compelled" it to go to court, Viacom said, "by continuing to defend their illegal and irresponsible conduct and profiting from copyright infringement, when they could be implementing the safe and legal user generated content experience they promise". It said it would not be asking for any "personally identifiable information" of any user. "Any information that we or our outside advisors obtain will be used exclusively for the purpose of proving our case against You Tube and Google (and) will be handled subject to a court protective order and in a highly confidential manner." 'Erroneous ruling' Leading privacy expert Simon Davies told BBC News that the privacy of millions of YouTube users was threatened. He said: "The chickens have come home to roost for Google. "Their arrogance and refusal to listen to friendly advice has resulted in the privacy of tens of millions being placed under threat." Mr Davies said privacy campaigners had warned Google for years that IP addresses were personally identifiable information. Google pledged last year to anonymise IP addresses for search information but it has said nothing about YouTube data. Mr Davies said: "Governments and organisations are realising that companies like Google have a warehouse full of data. And while that data is stored it is under threat of being used and putting privacy in danger." The EFF said: "The Court's erroneous ruling is a set-back to privacy rights, and will allow Viacom to see what you are watching on YouTube. "We urge Viacom to back off this overbroad request and Google to take all steps necessary to challenge this order and protect the rights of its users." The body said the ruling was also potentially unlawful because the log data did contain personally identifiable data. The court also ruled that Google disclose to Viacom the details of all videos that have been removed from the site for any reason.
