Burma

Week 30 Burma

I recently watched the movie Beyond Rangoon which depicts some of the horror when the military cracked down on protesters in 1988. Thousands of innocent people were gunned down by the regime. In 1990 the military allowed an election and Aung San Suu Kyi, the leader of the opposition, was elected by over 80% of the voters. She was then placed under house arrest and is currently still being held by the military even though she is the rightful elected leader of the country. LYRICS

This song confused me because I thought the original version of it was a draft or something... I mean I think I heard a different version of this song.

This song would benefit from one bridge part, with a lot of voices singing or something, in between the narrative. What do you think of that thought?? I know though once something is posted, the people can bite you!!
