A co-write with Joanne Cooper. Back some time ago, several of us (in this forum), wrote, recorded and posted songs about the plight of the rhinos. (Joanne spearheaded that "movement"). This is one that never got posted. So I thought I'd let it see the light of day. WHAT WE GONNA TELL OUR CHILDREN every year the number gets a little smaller every year bone pile a little taller rhino disappearing before our very eyes poachers grow like a cancer if not you and me, who will have the answer? will you turn away when you hear their cries? what we gonna tell our children what we gonna say we did that we let the rhino end or that we saved them for our kids stand up for the sake of your sons raise your voice for your daughters give them a future together we can stop the slaughter so tell me... what we gonna tell our children educate the world it's just a fairy tale no magic in the horn just a con man sale wasting your money won't cure a thing death of the beast is all it can bring what we gonna tell our children what we gonna say we did that we let the rhino end or that we saved them for our kids stand up for the sake of your sons raise your voice for your daughters give them a future together we can stop the slaughter so tell me... what we gonna tell our children The BAND: Style is _PWPOWER.STY (Praise&WorshipGuit&Piano[120RS]) RealTracks in style: 1523:Bass, Electric, PopPowerA-B Ev 120 RealTracks in style: 1535:Piano, Acoustic, Rhythm PopPowerPushA-B Ev 120 RealTracks in style: 1529:Guitar, Electric, Rhythm PopPowerBrightA-B Ev 120 RealTracks in style: 1526:Guitar, Electric, Rhythm PopPowerPushA-B Ev 120 RealDrums in style: PraiseWorshipPowerPush^1-a:Qck, b:PHt RealTracks in song: 633:Guitar, Electric, Rhythm PopAmericanMuted Ev 120 (A:sync) RealTracks in song: 1260:Guitar, Electric, Soloist PopShining Ev 120 RealTracks in song: 659:Guitar, Electric, Rhythm TexasRockChop Ev 120 (B:8ths) RealTracks in song: 1540:Guitar, Electric, Soloist PopBelieve Ev16 065 A fight we should revisit often. floyd

Great tune and poignant message. I had forgotten about the songs for the Rhino project. There were several nice ones as I recall.
Enjoyed this one a lot.

Floyd,
Hard hitting lyrics delivered with powerful vocals and a great band.
Thanks for digging this up - I`m going to look back in the forum for the other songs on this theme.

Floyd. Thanks so much for posting this. I must say I was very dissappointed that I couldn't get anything going with the rhino thing. There was such an awesome collection of songs and a commitment from two top South African artists to record for an album.
We needed about R120 K sponsorship (about $10 k) to get the thing going and I approached about 50 corporate companies in South Africa with no interest.
I guess corporate South Africa is a bit over saturated with the plight of the rhino and is also probably dispondant that even with all of their efforts and money we do not seem to be winning the war.
After FAWM I will do a video of this one.

Floyd/Joanne,
Why wasn't this posted before ;-)
a very melodic and poppy verse with a good powered up chorus.
A very complete package!
Good work as always.

Floyd and Joanne
A powerful, powerful write, and delivery.
More musical class from you guys.
This is masterfully delivered, and sends out a powerful and vastly important message at the same time.
Just so well done.

Excellent! Powerful message delivered in a powerful way. Love the drums in this, did you add processing after the fact to get them to sound so good?
Anyway, an excellent write, performance, and mix, on my third listen.

floyd and Joanne,
This is excellent, really excellent: great lyrics, great melody, great singing, superb arrangement and a real power-house of a mix. I can't believe that this has been sitting on some proverbial shelf somewhere! From every angle, this is 'quality'.
All the best to you both,
Noel

Good song, alas the Black Rhino seems also to be extinct in the wild now too, so too late mate.
A re-write of it? Along the lines of I Shot the Sheriff, but ... ? As us humans are all guilty. F

What can I say that hasn't been said? Nothing!
This is another fantastic winner from Floyd.
