One way artists and musicians are speaking out about Fukushima is to use music as a protest tool. This is one example of many. This musical performance is WELL WORTH LISTENING TO. He sings from the heart. If you are not crying by the end of this, well… watch and see what happens…
According to the Atlantic; “Frying Dutchman, a Kyoto-based band virtually unknown a year ago, is behind what has perhaps become the anthem of the post-Fukushima youth movement. The song “humanERROR,” a poetic rant which, if nothing else, clearly articulates the narrative embraced by many Japanese, has become an internet sensation over the past three months. Organizers, concerned that people might not know how to articulate their protest on the one year anniversary of 3.11, began a campaign to get 100,000 people to play “humanERROR” on sound systems across Japan — the louder and more public the better, they explained. Sixty-seven thousand registered.”
