What's The Connection? Flags 1

Today is Flag Day in the United States so this connection of Flag songs is appropriate. Not all patriotic songs. In fact we start with burning one. Not all American flags. We have everything from No Flag to different colored flags to pirate flags and having sex on a flag. There's a finish line flag and songs about being finished (dead) and having a flag represent your life and service. Only one song about the actual day: Flag Day! So have a good one, even if you don't celebrate it.

  1. Dutch greatest hardcore punks Pandemonium had a tune With A Black Flag/Demonstrate

    Pandemonium being one of my most loved bands from The Netherlands. After a few years they thought they'd said it all, dissolved and made one benefit reunion. And that was it.
    Around the same time the German Toten Hosen had Unter Falscher Flagge, quite the opposite side of punk.

    The Dubliners played this Green Flag in a medley called Rebellion.
