U2 – Pride (In The Name Of Love)
One man come in the name of love
One man come and go
One man come he to justify
One man to overthrowIn the name of love
What more in the name of love
In the name of love
What more in the name of loveOne man caught on a barbed wire fence
One man he resist
One man washed up on an empty beach
One man betrayed with a kissIn the name of love
What more in the name of love
In the name of love
What more in the name of loveEarly morning April four
Shot rings out in the Memphis sky
Free at last they took your life
They could not take your prideIn the name of love
What more in the name of love
In the name of love
What more in the name of loveIn the name of love
What more in the name of love
In the name of love
What more in the name of lovea visionary or a fool?

All the clever ones are 8)
he was also a tyrant to his wife and children. he also had countless affairs, the i have a dream speach was brilliant, andits a shame that we cant all live up to it. he was a visionary i think, but not a very nice man to be around.
How long will prejudice blind the visions of men, darken their understanding, and drive bright-eyed wisdom from her sacred throne?
I wonder what would have happened to him had he NOT been assassinated???
Do you suppose he would have achieved world wide fame in life (as he clearly has done in death) or would he have become just another single issue rabble rouser – maybe like the Rev Jesse Jackson.
i reckon he would have become a politition and become as corrupt as the rest of them.
