This is the complete song collection of the music composed by the Palestinian surgeon and self-taught musician Doc Jazz.

However, from time to time, songs will be on offer for FREE, sometimes even the whole collection - so check back frequently, add yourself to the or the so that you can stay informed about these offers! You can also INVALID -- Facebook Badge END -- Because of their reliance on a unique combination of politically critical lyrics and catchy beats and melodies, some of these songs managed to penetrate into mainstream Dutch media, most markedly the song 'Balken van Ellende' - a satirical song about the Dutch prime minister - which ended up being used in a news quiz on national television, where two questions were asked about the song (see videos). He also played all instruments and vocals on all songs, except on the album (produced by the African American producer Forrest Thomas) and on the Dutch song 'Doe Maar Multicultureel'. In these songs, Doc Jazz collaborated with prominent professionals from the Dutch jazz and fusion scene. His music can be found in a wide variety of styles ranging from piano ballads to funky music with a groove and with a taste of Doc Jazz's characteristic rock guitar solos (and on 'Front Door Key' the mesmerizing saxophone solos of Susanne Alt) - in three languages:. A Palestinian short shepherd's flute called the is also often featured in the songs. One last note: don't assume the music of Doc Jazz is only political! If you scroll through the vast collection of songs, you will find many songs about other subjects of love, and of life!

Lyrics
Justice Leads the Way Free Palestine, it's the only way It's the only way we'll see peace one day Look at Palestine see the trouble and the pain Voices calling out for freedom are crying in vain We've got to find a way to make this world a better place But its no use trying if the causes of the problems aren't faced You cant reach peace if you're not ready to fix the mistakes of 48 Justice leads the way So fix the mistakes Cause if you wanna know where peace is You know justice leads the way Games of power causing hunger and distress Every minute every hour victims in a game of chess Mother, oh mama, what are we supposed to do Father, oh father, tell me what this world is coming to
