Pink Floyd - Another Brick In The Wall

A
The Wall is a song made in three parts, represents all that a man has suffered through his life, in this is case roger waters, the leader of  the pink Floyd band tells his history through a fictitious character named pink Floyd. The part two of the wall represents the childhood in which every situation of that school, such as the dictator teacher, and the abolition of freethinking is another brick of  his wall of solitude, violence and war.

Another Brick In The Wall is full of metaphorical concepts, and in  the part two we can see for example in the beginning of the video, the faceless people in the train, represents  how  millions of  Jews people , as well as  intellectuals,  and political dissidents, were led by the Nazis and their allies during World War II to the extermination. In this way is how Roger Waters perceives education in his moments of childhood.

I want to break free




I want to break free is the 6th song on the album The works (1984) by Queen, one of the gratest rock bands in history. Although Queen claimed themselves as a non-political engaged band, this song was considered as an anthem for the ANC (African National Congress) movement in South Africa in the late 80's. The song is about wanting to break with someone's domination (in a relationship), but it is also seen as a symbol of breaking any kind of subjugation. Ironically, though the video was a huge success in England it was banned in the US because the band is dressed as drags
