This is the complete song collection of the music composed by the Palestinian surgeon and self-taught musician Doc Jazz. The songs here were mostly recorded and produced between 2001 and now, although a few of the songs date back to the late 80's and the early 90's. Normally, these songs are only available for listening, not for download. 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
Muntathar is a hero "Hey! Take my old brown shoe" For all the children you terrorized For all the crimes you commited with your lies For all the orphans Who lost their homes For all the tragedies You caused for your own goals Take my old brown shoe It has your name on it Its coming straight towards your face And that's the shame of it Because you fool no matter what you do Even my shoe is too good for you Hey! Take my old brown shoe For all the people in Arab lands who have been occupied and tortured by your hands For all these brothers an sisters too I'm gonna take off my shoe and throw it at you Take my old brown shoe It has your name on it Its coming straight towards your face And that's the shame of it Because you fool no matter what you do Even my shoe is too good for you Hey! Take my old brown shoe Now here's the lesson You may have learned That old brown shoe Was the credit that you earned you can't continue to occupy An ancient nation that you failed to pacify Take my old brown shoe It has your name on it Its coming straight towards your face And that's the shame of it Because you fool no matter what you do Even my shoe is too good for you George Bush Hey! Take my old brown shoe George Bush, hey Dubya Hey! Take my old brown shoe
