We Don't Need No Billionaires--Song Review
reviewed by Michael Lohr
Dada Veda has gone and done it again. In a crucial time in our country’s history, when everything is seemingly falling apart, music can provide us with a bridge to healing. Dada Veda understands this, and has given us a vision of truth, the antidote to a dying, materialistic world.
Reminiscent of Bob Dylan and Joan Baez protest songs of the 1960s, ‘We Don't Need No Billionaires’ bristles with socially poignant lyrics and jangling, echoing guitars. Honesty and integrity are forthright in Dada’s voice. This song, the music, both are heartfelt. And if you are
familiar with Dada’s work, then you already know this to be true.
“We Don't Need No Billionaires, Zillionaies or trillionaires, what we need is love, sweet love”. Indeed, Mr. Veda, indeed!
The song is streaming on Spotify and other digital platforms and is available for downloads at iTunes, Bandcamp and CD Baby.
