      So-called “anti-racists” can`t deny that they want a world in which White people are an ever-decreasing population until eventually we no longer exist because of mass immigration and “assimilation” being forced on every White country.
      It is an act of genocide to advocate or facilitate the destruction of a racial or other group.

    Lyrics
    Rolling the ball (rolling)
    Rolling the ball (rolling)
    Rolling the ball (rolling)
    To me
    Rolling the ball (rolling)
    Rolling the ball (rolling)
    Rolling the ball (rolling)
    To me
    They arrived at an inconvenient time
    I was hiding in a room in my mind
    They made me look at myself, I saw it well
    I'd shut the people out of my life
    So now I take the opportunities
    Wonderful teachers ready to teach me
    I must work on my mind, for now I realize
    Everyone of us has a heaven inside
    Them heavy people hit me in a soft spot
    Them heavy people help me
    Them heavy people hit me in a soft spot
    Rolling the ball (rolling)
    Rolling the ball (rolling)
    Rolling the ball (rolling)
    To me
    Rolling the ball (rolling)
    Rolling the ball (rolling)
    Rolling the ball (rolling)
    To me
    They open doorways that I thought were shut for good
    They read me Gurdjieff and Jesu
    They build up my body, break me emotionally
    It's nearly killing me, but what a lovely feeling
    I love the whirling of the dervishes
    I love the beauty of rare innocence
    You don't need no crystal ball
    Don't fall for a magic wand
    We humans got it all, we perform the miracles
    Them heavy people hit me in a soft spot
    Them heavy people help me
    Heavy heavy
    Them heavy people hit me in a soft spot
    Rolling the, rolling the, rolling the, rolling the
    Them heavy people hit me in a soft spot
    Them heavy people help me
    Heavy heavy
    Them heavy people hit me in a soft spot
    Rolling the, rolling the, rolling the, rolling the
    Them heavy people hit me in a soft spot
    Them heavy people help me
    Heavy heavy
    Them heavy people hit me in a soft spot
    Rolling the, rolling the, rolling the, rolling the
    Them heavy people hit me in a soft spot
    Them heavy people help me

    The audio for this video is from The Kate Bush Live on Stage EP 1979 ( you can hear the audience at the beginning and end). which got to number 10 in the UK. Apparently, actual stage footage was not yet ready so Kate recreated the stage performance for this video. So what you are hearing is a live performance. It was also the first recording on which Kate took the lead as the producer.

      Her and the two dancers do the same routine in the 1979 BBC Christmas special. But the camerawork there is better there than in this video. The forward rolls from the dancers, her jumping up and being caught by them like an ironing board. The framing is too close and cuts too late on this video to appreciate it.

    same thing happened to me ,having learned bag pipes for 6 years as a kid and bored with it and asking how we could make it interesting again. was walking down freak street in Kathmandu Nepal and heard this pipe music ,with sitar and guitar with a choir ,just floating down the street.tracked it down and came to the discovery of Alan Stivell and his album "celtic symphony".and at the end of the album has the most simple but most beautiful piping i've ever heard .opened up a whole new world for me .what a day that was .

    I will forever associate this song with my own spiritual awakening. It was 3am on a weeknight with work a few hours away, as I had been eyeballs deep for months in a search for truth in ancient cultures and religions.
    When I stumbled upon this song, I broke down and weeped for a good 15 minutes, pure joy and happiness. "Because now I realize...everyone of us has a Heaven inside!" And THAT is the secret of the ancients. THAT is what we are not supposed to know...that we have limitless potential if we expand our consciousness.
    "I must work on my mind!" "We perform the miracles!" We are the Energy of the Universe operating at a certain vibration, and we are all connected. Our divisions are creations of our conscious egos, nothing more, nothing less.
    Why would I not be kind and happy and giving and peaceful to everyone I meet? Why would I give and receive anything other than Love?
    Thank you, Kate Bush - you beautiful, Enlightened woman - for having an incredibly positive effect on my life. Every time I hear this song now, my crown tingles and energy shoots up my spine :)
    Thanks for reading, and I hope this comment has a positive effect on someone else. Love.

    • @atgunchev

    "Them Heavy People"
    Kate Bush #TheKickInside
    [Refrain]
    Rolling the ball, rolling the ball, rolling the ball to me
    (Rolling, rolling, rolling)
    Rolling the ball, rolling the ball, rolling the ball to me
    (Rolling, rolling, rolling)
    [Verse 1]
    They arrived at an inconvenient time
    I was hiding in a room in my mind
    They made me look at myself, I saw it well
    I'd shut the people out of my life
    [Verse 2]
    So now I take the opportunities
    Wonderful teachers ready to teach me
    I must work on my mind, for now I realise
    Every one of us has a heaven inside
    [Chorus]
    Them heavy people hit me in a soft spot
    Them heavy people help me
    Them heavy people hit me in a soft spot
    [Refrain]
    Rolling the ball, rolling the ball, rolling the ball to me
    (Rolling, rolling, rolling)
    Rolling the ball, rolling the ball, rolling the ball to me
    (Rolling, rolling, rolling)
    [Verse 3]
    They open doorways that I thought were shut for good
    They read me Gurdjieff and Jesu
    They build up my body, break me emotionally
    It's nearly killing me, but what a lovely feeling
    [Verse 4]
    I love the whirling of the dervishes
    (Come on, give me dervishes love)
    I love the beauty of rare innocence
    You don't need no crystal ball, don't fall for a magic wand
    We humans got it all, we perform the miracles
    [Chorus]
    Them heavy people hit me in a soft spot
    Them heavy people help me
    (Heavy, heavy, heavy)
    Them heavy people hit me in a soft spot
    Rolling the, rolling the, rolling the, rolling the...
    (Ro-rolling, ro-rolling...)
    [Chorus]
    Them heavy people hit me in a soft spot
    Them heavy people help me
    (Heavy, heavy, heavy)
    Them heavy people hit me in a soft spot
    Rolling the, rolling the, rolling the, rolling the...
    (Ro-rolling, ro-rolling...)
    [Chorus]
    Them heavy people hit me in a soft spot
    Them heavy people help me
    (Heavy, heavy, heavy)
    Them heavy people hit me in a soft spot
    Rolling the, rolling the, rolling the, rolling the...
    (Ro-rolling, ro-rolling...)
    [Chorus]
    Them heavy people hit me in a soft spot
    Them heavy people help me
    (Heavy, heavy, heavy)
    Them heavy people hit me in a soft spot
    Rolling the, rolling the, rolling the, rolling the...
