Clawfinger - Two Sides

[@underakillingmoon]

Clawfinger best song

[@elmo2you]

To this day, this is still a masterpiece. Both musically and lyrically. Underappreciated for it's actual message, which is not anti-religious (as some do claim, apparently unable to listen to the lyrics). It just promotes using your fucking brain and fight for what you stand, instead of obediently following whatever your religion (if any) allegedly dictates.

[@unwnme]

Organized religion is cancer in humanity my friend.

[@tintoweno]

Men Allah Al Salam, I don't believe in a God that I need to worship. Ya Rab Ya Rahman, I don't believe that I need to get down on my knees. Men Allah Al Salam, I don't believe that a voice from above can help me. Ya Rab Ya Rahman, I only believe in what I can see and the things that I can achieve.

[@Jebochannel]

And what does these words in arabic means in translation/context? Thank you.

[@DISEIL]

S Min Allah Al Salam means From god comes peace Ya Rab Ya Rahman means Oh merciful god/lord I speak Arabic btw that’s the closest to a simple answer i could get😅 hope this helped

[@Jebochannel]

@@DISEIL Thanks man. ;-)

[@DISEIL]

S sure mate

[@SofiDural]

God I loved this tune. 15 years ago!?! Time flies.

[@flioink]

25 now! Yep, time does fly, but it also feels like an eternity ago. 🧔‍♀

[@braianleguizamon42]

Damn, i listen this over and over again, such a great song, and underrated band !!!!

[@Gabyrhcp15]

damn! I fucking love those arabic sounds! it fitted so perfect in this song! Awesome!

[@asasin4576]

+Alpha Omegakill While the imagery in the video is predominantly of the Middle East, I don't think anything in the song itself makes it against one religion over another predominantly.

[@asasin4576]

+Alpha Omegakill Then I have to ask, does it make a difference that the song targets one religion over another?

[@aldenjames1174]

Just like the government sponsored Islamic invaders fit into Sweden!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@Zngl]

When songs are against christianity all is good. If it's about islam, hell breaks lose.

[@KINGS1976]

fuck islam ...anyway ..lol

[@flioink]

This song perfectly sums up my opinion on (any) religion!

[@alext6081]

Havent heard it for over 5 years , got goosebumps when chorus comes in !!!

[@ivankrizic9180]

I like Clawfinger from 98 and I praise Jesus!

[@fuzzo4475]

Damn straight man, I love this music. But I also love God and Jesus. :)

[@towerofmadness]

Time to wake up man. Read the Bible on its enterity and you'll realize about it.

[@alexsowpel770]

Я Тоже

[@gumborific]

Scandinavians have shown over the years to be very philosophically advanced; win music, art, & literature. This is an intelligent, atheist song that promotes self action, achievement and responsibility; not fate, and blind faith.

[@MCXpress]

For several years not hearing about this song - this shit still rocks!

[@jogiamai]

Ofra Haza in backvocal is brilliant!!

the best clawfinger song

[@DiRaled]

thank you for having the video to one of my favorite songs of all time!

[@randleburleigh]

Brutal honesty is the solution for everyone. It may or may not be scary, but it is not easily condemned.

Шикарная вещь!

[@MeidoInHebun]

This song was very helpful when I was 13 and just figuring out my real beliefs.

[@UserNameNiemand]

Dat Bonham shuffle!

[@Tulemasin]

yes. lyrics are great and a whole song is great to

[@sreaver3]

@Psychologiker completely agree with you here and to quote Kerry King " religion is a crutch for people who are to weak to get through life on there own" sums it up nicely i believe.

[@Valshala]

I just love the lyrics to this song :)

[@carperjake]

Love this song, the bass makes it for me.

[@kerli666]

[@AmxCsifier]

I listened to this song like 18 years ago and didn't find it since, now found it by chance. I liked the arabic singer, she's lebanese i'm guessing

[@bobakor]

[@andidepressiva2124]

I can't understand how the children play and laugh being surrounded by ruins and dirt -- and I can't feel at ease and definitely not happy in this "perfect" first world. How do they do that ????

[@Katj81]

Those who blame God for all the bad things forget about Devil, who also has great power over the world. Everything in this world has a good and a bad side - this what makes things complete. Without bad things happening we could not appriciate the good ones. Just think about it;)))... anyway: I love this song:)

[@johnnykidlx]

Loved them since "Pin me down"...but never had the dream come-true of earin' Clawfinger live... Though nordish, their lyrics in english are...perfect! Can't think of any other band presenting reality as they do... ...well, maybe NoFX... Oo

[@Marbilight]

Amazing

[@shtelle]

superb song, good lyrics

[@randleburleigh]

p.s. honesty doesn't neccesarily mean you are right. It just means that you are open to the truth.

[@bacon_kimikazegaming6496]

The only god is man, we choose our own fate.. Thats also why i find the lyrics in this track awesome, and a text all men should come to understand. Religion is a source to much evil.. Nuff said.

[@ALienZ0308]

Humans are naturally inclined to believe in God. It feels soothing to think, there's "a better place" or there's some kind of meaning for all existence. And if we take a look in history, seemingly religions have always been very essential part of our culture. And like Zak says: "...Eight stories more now which one should you choose Now which one can you use" In my opinion all this should be enough proof to realize, there is no God, no better place, nor meaning. We're born just to copy our genes.

[@mrdeathamore]

So true...

[@xLoNaDaRx]

That's the point. There's no way. If I create my own imaginary friend and say that he will live forever, no one will ever be able to say that he does or doesn't exist.

[@luiszoom215]

I'm Christian but I don't push my beliefs down anybody's throat, I just hope that one day in the near future that all of this war and feuding with all these religions stop and we all just come to a realization that all of this is pointless, there's no need for all this fighting.

[@James89B]

"With or without religion, you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion. "

[@R0GUER0CK]

GOOD FUKIN SONG.. GREAT MIX OF RAP AND THE SAMPLE OF THE GIRL..

[@WeenieManX]

a bit late post but, the burden of proof is on the ones who claim something (you claim God exists) not those who question it.

[@dillerdallerglor]

This song is extra relevant now that Denmark is preparing legislation which would elevate >>objects that hold significance to religious groups

[@Curlyfriez12]

the arabic part sounds very nice

[@maniacsnufkin]

great ending

[@ThePerceptionist]

does anyone know where the Arabic sample come from, very evocative singing

[@KaarelVeike]

I think it was Ofra Haza - kzbin.info/www/bejne/fYHUZ5h9eL2Lhpo

[@wmonk5642]

Yea, the same question. And its not Ofra at all, in track she sings arabic, look text transcript above.

[@AmxCsifier]

Here name is Antoinette Sayegh, from Lebanon, it's not a sample though

[@Beta2k]

discogs states that the singer is 'Antoinette Sayegh'. See: www.discogs.com/Clawfinger-Clawfinger/release/419524
