Fischer-Z - A Plea [Music Video]
"I read a letter sent by a young Russian soldier to the mayor of his home town, begging him not to send any more young men to the war to die. His brothers and some friends have already been killed." - JW
This song deals with the shame and futility of sacrificing so many young lives for warmongering military leaders.
Many thanks to these lovely folks who made this video - go and check out their work!

White Lies (You Won’t Get Away) [Music Video]
Переглядів 3 тис.Рік тому
White Lies (You Won’t Get Away) is a mad, fun, surreal track in the Fischer-Z tradition of songs like ‘Limbo’! It’s also a serious political comment. In our current era where facts and truth are not important to many politicians, the deconstructed lyrics of the song point out that the white lies told by Johnson, Trump and the other popularists may well come back to haunt them.

You are the best Voice ever
Love this band ! Why have so few heard of them ?
Yer, you are all right, this music just reminds how it was back in the 70's & 80's, we had nothing but times where good, everyone one got on better, so "MAKE LOVE NOT WAR" PEACE (PEOPLE DON'T KNOW WHAT PEACE IS, BECAUSE WE HAVE NEVER EXPERIENCED IT) THE WORLD IS A FUCK'EN JOKE, LOVE YOU ALL, "PYSCHO SHANO"😅❤🐵🙊🙉🐱
Fischer-Z - John Watts for ever😊
To wait for the perfect girl ❤️🥰🌹😜
Far to long bro,i know 😞.
best version
Thank you for the feel good song! 🎶🎸
Good musik ,saudade and beutiful.FOR ETERNATY....😔
I like this song And of course I was born in the late seventies
Is that a danelectro?
A good and great men...
Listening in the garden now, with headphone on. Going out of my head.

Hello John, we See you tomorrow in Hamburg 😊 I'am happy
Es gibt Dinge im Leben, die sind und werden einzigartig bleiben. Und ich sehe ihn heute Abend live 👍

OHHoHH Marliese.....🤭 Great to see John again!!!
Nice song ❤
great pop song!
hello john. i've been an enthusiastic listener of your music since the 80s. you hit the nail on the head with this song. i can't add anything to that except that it's sad but true. many greetings from germany and please go on with your fantastic songs. ps: why isn't there a reissue of "going deaf for a living" on vinyl yet?
See you at Capitol in Hannover 8th of May 2024
Great video!
Wow, the video really helps convey the message!
Glad you think so!
Great song! The intro and the melody of some parts of the song remind me of 'Man In Someone Else's Skin' 😀.
great song. thanks! peace and love!
Everyone is calling for peace in Gaza, no one is calling for peace in Ukraine?
Gaza is a more readily identifiable existential crisis.
Fischer Z es una banda con un sello propio, inconfundible... lo que les hace grandes... sin duda,una de las bandas más infravaloradas de la Historia...
I always enjoy listening to your music. Even as a teenager. About 35 years ago 😃
🙂
Brilliant lyrics and beautiful song ⭐
Really nice 👍👍👍
This song's vibes reminds me of how i felt hearing Glen Hansard the first time--not sure if it's a timbre or accent thing, but it resonates in my soul. Thanks for another great tune to live by, Fischer-Z.
What a poignant song about the futility of war and those in charge sending young men to die needlessly on foreign soil. No war has ever served a purpose except to bury million of wasted lives, lives that had so much to give and do. Your day will come putin. Not lost that ability to put into words and a tune a song about the situation. Thanks for posting and sharing John.
Too many world leaders who care about nothing but holding onto power.
John can still hit the high notes conveying his passionate plea for peace. Remember Russia, Putin will pass. It's just a matter of time.
Marvellous!
Great song but the B side holiday in France was also brilliant 👍🏼❤️
Is that the original singer?
Yes indeed!
I used to have the vinyl record
Thanks , amazing song ❤
Que hermosas melodías !!!!!
Nice song.
Great songtext, and good sound with old Rock and Reggae-vibes. I love it.
Fabulous!
I want a Time Machine, anyone want to come with me? Back to the 1980’s 😊
Uff. thats music.
Far_too_long to wait for the perfect day!! hahahah Love it!!! .. Please don't tell me something I know!!!!
Het eerste wat bij me opkomt...🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶❤️💪🙏
Great song
Loved So Long so captivating. Need to listen to the rest of their music. Born January 69 and growing up as the youngest of 4 , I was dreaming of meeting Kate Bush every night nearly for years after she raunched the screens in 77 . Still can't ever catch up with the superb music of the 70's 🤘✌️🤲
