Just sent this by my daughter and after reading the Greenham thread thought I'd share it here.
It's by Carsie Blanton - who is an American singer/songwriter - one woman and her guitar mainly I think.

Oh.
I have just found the text that accompanies this song *Little Flame*:

Little Flame is out now on all platforms!! Featuring @yevagabonds and my prison buddy @ranafreesoul. The little flame belongs to all of us, and you can use this song in any way forever, unless you’re a fascist. (In that spirit, I have re-mixed a Soviet animation from 1971 as the music video. Isn’t it gorgeous?)

Thank you NotSpaghetti for sharing that song ....in my own small way I try to " keep the flame alive" even if its writing an email to my MP these days rather than attending a protest march!

Me too Gingerrice.

I love that it's a Soviet animation from the 70s.
I will be looking her up, Carsie Blanton I think - and her "prison buddies" grin
