Some rather obvious choices missing:

The Doors - The Unknown Soldier
Gnidrolog - I Could Never Be A Soldier
Metallica - Disposable Heroes
Metallica - One

The whole underrated Roger Waters album Radio K.A.O.S. was pretty much all about anti-war and the Powers That Be. The song Four Minutes scared the hell out of me at the time.  



As a bonus find this evening, I stumbled across a partial RW and the Bleeding Hearts Band concert from 1987. The re-mastered sound on this video really gives you the experience of being there.

I see it as Stephen Hawking and Elon Musk combined to take over all the radio waves and satellites and create world peace. Maybe i'm crazy.  I read once that Elon had contacted aliens and they gave him super powers/technology to stop world annihilations. 

My very fav Roger Waters song was Two Suns in the Sunset from Final Cut. 

Here is his last take from 2020 - not bad at all

Hi,

Thanks, was going to add this, specially since it makes so much sense these days with Ukraine being senselessly raped.

Another song in the same album also deserves a listing ... EPITATH was pretty much the same thing from a victim's point of view.
 
Although "21st Century Schizoid Man" was released during the Vietnam war in protest of that war, the main significance of that song to me is that it is called "21st Century Schizoid Man", which seems very appropriate to the current situation.
 
No, I know how to behave in the restaurant now, I don't tear at the meat with my hands. If I've become a man of the world somehow, that's not necessarily to say I'm a worldly man.

Gentle Bump

Any other good prog protest songs?
