Working Class Hero

If you've never heard this incredible song by John Lennon, prepare yourself for a shock. It's one of the most powerful songs about working class life ever recorded. One stanza begins:

Keep you doped with religion and sex and TV
And you think you're so clever and classless and free
But you're still fucking peasants as far as I can see
A working class hero is something to be

Now playing on Radio LabourStart, on our Tuesday playlist.
