From the 6th to the 9th of June European elections will be held in all EU member countries. So, in order to prepare each and everyone, as distant observer or as participant, here is a selection of "Europe" songs. Some well known, some lesser known or not known at all. I think there is something for each and everyone to enjoy! 
Do not hesitate to listen to the playlist to discover those tracks you don't know and vote for up to three tracks that you prefer.


In order of appearance:
Rolf Trostel - It Is War in Europe (Progressive Electronic)
Jan Akkerman - Gate to Europe (Jazz Rock/Fusion)
Sol Invictus - Somewhere in Europe (Prog Folk)
Santana - Europa (Earth's Cry Heaven's Smile) (Jazz Rock/Fusion)
Robert Wyatt - Old Europe (Canterbury Scene)
Quantum Jump - Europe on a Dollar a Day (Canterbury Scene)
Kraftwerk - Europa Endlos (Progressive Electronic)
Nuova Divisione - The Last Man in Europe (Crossover Prog)
Fury N Grace - A Dream-Letter To The Witches Of Western Europe (Progressive Metal)
Noir Désir - L'Europe (Rock)

Screw Ursula.Angry

She's the worst since Barroso (who went on to work for huge banks) and could even outdo him.


I went for NwarDezWink

Voted for Europe Endless - A masterpiece. Europa (Earth's Cry Heaven's Smile) and Old Europe are wonderful as well. 

My favorite Roxy Music-tune might have rivaled kraftwerk if it was in the poll though:

Some really great per my tastes music here. Going...

Rolf Trostel - It Is War in Europe
Noir Désir - L'Europe
Kraftwerk - Europa Endlos

And I wanted to vote for Sol Invictus too. Love Robert Wyatt and have the album it's off, but it's not a favourite of mine of his. Very nice poll.

Ursi is hideous indeed. But let's not forget to mention Drincker. Barroso (11x) and von der Leyen (4x) are both regular Bilderberg attendees, but none of the core Bilderbergers seems to have ever feel the need to smell Juncker's breath.

No vote by the way, I'm a diehard anti-EU Nexiteer Evil Smile.

Robert Wyatt's "Old Europe," Noir Désir's "L' Europe," and Santana's "Europa" got my votes as multiple voting is allowed.

the last good prez was Jacques Delors (RIP recently)
 

The only thing Junk-ers has done is promised that European Countries could choose winter or summer hours  all year round

That was 8 years ago and nothing's changed before that stupid promise.


I'm pro-Europe (80 years of peace on this continent is the first time in human history, so we're obviously doing something right), but not that way it is heading (first building multinational firms capitalisms - invited to invest in Luxemburg - and screw the modest citizen) and in stopping sucking dicks to the US and Ukraine (whose actual prez is insulting us to get weapons to fight the people it has denied the basic rights inside its history)


Just imagine that in July the rogue state of Hungary will damage Europe's future furthermore for the next 6 months.

^ Yes, up till now the European Commission has mainly followed an ultra-liberal policy, giving priority to big companies and stakeholders instead of protection and serving its citizens. But remember...

Putain, putain, c'est vachement bien, nous sommes quand même tous des Européens!"


RIP, Arno...

very little places else on this planet that I'd like to live than Western Europe (maybe NZ's Southern Island)Hug

ou bien Les Marquises, comme Le Grand Jacques Wink

even Canada's not the same than in my youth.

Just for that alone, I added a vote for Santana

^ I've always found it strange how (in the mainstream Confused) Europe is known for their big hit, and they have released 11 albums, none of them bad, having a song that is embarrassing (not even Carrie, which has a nice guitar solo).
