Oct 13, 2010 - You know, I am a Libertarian(I am not sure about Teabaggers, they've been 'highjacked' by the neocons), but I think Pete Seeger, even if he is a communist, is an American hero. I think if he were an America communist dictator, he probably would be great. But not everyone, like Pete Seeger, is great.

Mar 5, 2011 - I second that emotion! Few performers have done as much as he has for the causes of freedom & justice...and he's still going strong in his 90's! Good for him! :-)

Mar 6, 2011 - With most audience-participation songs, you have to drag the singing out of them. Take Pete and a great song, and the crowd sinks their teeth into it, and brings it on home. Pete Seeger is truly an American Treasure!!

Mar 8, 2011 - Pete Seeger is an american musical icon, and yet, his humility and joy is overwhelmingly brilliant. He seems more into the fact that the audience is singing along that the fact that he is a true superstar. If only more musicians were like Pete--full of energy, humility, and joy... Hopefully he'll be with us to see his 100th birthday, and the world will be a better place then...

Mar 12, 2011 - Although that's a nice post, here's a bit of info. Pete QUIT the CP in 1949. He was in the Party for maybe thirteen years. He's been out of the Party for SIXTY-TWO years. Isn't it time to finally stop defining him solely by a political allegiance he held for less than a decade and a half?Pete is an independent, anti-repression, pro-peace, democracy and humanity person. THAT is what matters now. And it's not as if anyone in the CPUSA CAUSED Stalin to be Stalin.

KennBurch Says:

Mar 12, 2011 - @caliklovesmexies10 It's a universal humanity song. Pete was already out of or on his way out of the Party when he and Lee Hays(who was NEVER in the Party)wrote it. There's nothing in it that would lead anyone to "communism", at least not the Soviet or Chinese kind.Just let the Cold War die already. And get over yourself. If you aren't rich, it's the rich that are your enemy. Not "communism".

TheTommyfarm Says:

Jun 3, 2011 - Pete, you are precious. A national treasure.

Jul 2, 2011 - Although the song might seem cheesy to everybody who went ot summer camp in the 80's 90's and up, it is still a truthful and beautiful song.

Nov 30, 2011 - That's the greatest hymn to humanity ever sung. That's us. We should be glad for it, damn the drama and the consequences. We're awesome. Each and every one of us.The only thing similar is the Ode to Joy.
