My god. The energy in this one is through the roof. This is quickly becoming one of my favourite songs through this, the sheer determination and resilience of the song truly represents the struggle of the Chilean people, A determination that needs to be replicated here in the UK, where the government is using foreign spying as an excuse to go after and send the secret police against anyone Asian, and where our immigration concentration camps are being ran by private companies abusing their detainees and using them as slaves. Long live Chile, Long live the people, long live the workers!
"Workers of my country, I have faith in Chile and its destiny. Other men will overcome this dark and bitter moment when treason seeks to prevail. Keep in mind that, much sooner than later, the great avenues will again be opened through which will pass free men to construct a better society. Long live Chile! Long live the people! Long live the workers!" President Salvador Allende's farewell speech, September 11, 1973.
👏🏻👏🏻🇨🇱✊🏻✊🏻 muchas gracias Jack excelente interpretación, Éste es un himno muy especial se compuso Durante la campaña presidencial de Salvador Allende. Muchas gracias por interpretarlo con tu piano. Ahora vamos a vivir un periodo histórico muy importante, te pido si puedes interpretar. De Víctor Jara, el derecho de vivir en paz.
Wow, I can really feel the story of my people speaking through your music, the style and the feelings you put into your interpretation truly transport my heart to the Chile of la Unidad Popular, and inevitably to the tragic times of Pinochet. I’d say this work of yours has a quite enormous potential for helping us Chileans think of peace, unity, and fraternity, especially now in times of writing a new proposal for our Constitution, when the political polarization is at its highest since 1973; and when the new President is working towards implementing a novel, more participative, fair and pragmatic style into Chilean (even South American?) politics.
Excellent work, as always! I want to thank you for dedicating so much of your time and talent to entertaining us and preserving these pieces of our shared international worker’s culture. Your channel inspired me to start learning to play. Cheers and solidarity
Excellent work Jack!!! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾. I love your videos. You should do a cover of "Trabajadores al Poder" the hymn of the chilean Movimiento de Izquierda Revolucionaria (Revolutionary Left Movement)
Love your playing! You ever consider playing some filk (yes, filk is how it's spelt) music? An example that comes to mind is Minus Ten and Counting 16 - Everyman, a song about all the unrecognized workers who advanced the space program. I recommend you listen to it.
I always love your covers, they're incredible, some are even better than the "orgiginals" tbh. I know quite many say socialism doesn't work, but I think we all can agree that it works in music, almost every socialist song is incredible. If you'd take any suggestions, I'd suggest "Arbetets söner", a swedish social democratic song from about the time when we got our first democratic socialist government led by Hjalmar Branting (maybe a little nerdy but he got the nobel peace prize for avoiding revolution while democratically and peacefully shrinking the power of the king)
Love the music! Do you ever take requests? I love Last Train to Nuremburg. I grew up listening to my Elementary School Music teacher playing Pete Seeger, brings back so many memories - Also, what's the history of this song, if you know it? Im having a hard time finding information online, thanks!
As far as I know (and I am no expert on the history and context) the song is by Inti-illimani in 1970 right when Salvador Allende was elected. Poder popular (people/popular power) is the idea that the working class can have autonomous power outside the influence of the state or capital. In Chile, poder popular took the form of workers taking over their workplace and forming organizations of worker democracy. Cordones industriales were the largest of these, and were set up to pressure the Unidad Popular government into expediting their socialist reforms. The largest growth of poder popular was to combat the employers organizations which, with the aid of the US government, were trying to sabotage Unidad Popular and the democratic road to socialism. I just started to read "Weavers of Revolution" by Peter Winn, which is about what might be the first cordón industrial. I'll probably know a lot more when I finish it than I do now. It seems like the most radical aspects of the chilean revolution was occurring through poder popular, and not the government.
Love your channel! I’m not sure if you do requests but might you ever cover “Fight For Uncle Abe?” You’ve done great covers of other civil war songs and I can’t find any covers on UA-cam.
The Chilean struggle for freedom has a profound effect on me, causing both sadness at what could have been and hope at what's to come. El neoliberalismo nace y muere en Chile!
Please do Auferstanden aus Ruinen! As a German-speaker, i'd love to hear your voice and play on that one! And, it's a surprisingy non-partisan song of Unity

This song always makes me cry and that's why it's the best
Another Chilean song!

Chilean leftist music never ceases to amaze me

Long live Allande, Long live Socialism, Long live Chile
From India, a country on the brink of fascism.

Beautifully done, as usual! I had never heard this one before, it's a great song. Viva Chile Libre!

I love the emotion that you can hear in every single word, not every song has that
That's one of the reasons why i like your covers(?) so much!
Amazing! Thank you so much for making this! 🌹
Песня, которая заставляет плакать. Да здравствует Чили!!!

Another banger, love it Jack. Sorry, I don't always have a lot to say.
Desde Brasil, te amo camarada

He actually recently made a cover of that song, so check it out if you haven't!
Italy: l'avvenire sorge anche sul Cile🇨🇱👍
Can you please give us the link to the notes? This version is AMAZING ❤

Muchas gracias por esta bella interpretación! (Ojalá pudieras a futura interpretar el Venceremos de Sergio Ortega y Quilapayún).
Please, do you have the sheets? Or are your arrangements done by ear?
You should do a victor jara song
The Chilean struggle for freedom has a profound effect on me, causing both sadness at what could have been and hope at what's to come.
El neoliberalismo nace y muere en Chile!
Just want to say I love your videos!
I was wondering if you might be interested in performing "Dying of Hunger, Dying of Cold" by Gracchus Babeuf?
¡Viva Allende! ¡Viva Boric!
Allende👍, Boric no.
Have you ever considered covering "Lenin is young again/the battle is going again"?
Please do Auferstanden aus Ruinen! As a German-speaker, i'd love to hear your voice and play on that one! And, it's a surprisingy non-partisan song of Unity

Creo que es un chiste que diga "echaremos fuera el yanqui", con todo respeto...
Era el pensamiento de la época, ya que los gringos tenían la mala costumbre de imponerse en los paises mas pequeños.
@@deraka5588 me refiero a que el chico es del yanqui
Sing us a song for the people of Ukraine please.
Agree, the imperialist war of Russian Federation should be condemned by the leftist community, we shall as well support Ukrainan refugees and people
