Name a song, which in your opinion predicts or has predicted the future. I choose 1969's one hit wonder by Zager and Evans - "In the year 2525". Some songs kill it. This is one of them. Miss the good old days where lyrics meant somwthing.
I heard this on the radio while i was driving to the store an hour ago.
When it came out it was a commentary on that time period but you could consider that since much of it fits today it predicted the future.
Ten Years After
I'd Love to Change the World
Everywhere is freaks and hairies
Dykes and fairies, tell me, where is sanity?
Tax the rich, feed the poor
'Til there are no rich no more
I'd love to change the world
But I don't know what to do
So I'll leave it up to you
Population keeps on breeding
Nation bleeding, still more feeding, economy
Life is funny, skies are sunny
Bees make honey, who needs money? No, not poor me
I'd love to change the world
But I don't know what to do
So I'll leave it up to you
Oh, yeah
World pollution, there's no solution
Institution, electrocution
Just black and white, rich or poor
Them and us, stop the war
I'd love to change the world
But I don't know what to do
So I'll leave it up to you
