Biografía:
"Algunos cantautores, cuando tocan se imaginan que son Bob Dylan; yo me imagino que soy The Clash"
Billy Bragg, nacido en Barking, Essex-Inglaterra el 20 de diciembre de 1957, es un cantautor izquierdista muy vinculado al movimiento obrero.
Formó parte del llamado anti-Folk de los años 80. Es un artista influido tanto por el punk-rock (en especial The Clash, se le conoció como el 'one-man-Clash'), como por los cantautores comprometidos, en especial

Rotting On Remand
(Billy Bragg)
C
I stood before the judge that day
F C
As he refused my bail
And I knew that I would spend my time
G
Awaiting trial in jail
C
I said there is no justice
F C
As they led me out of the door
F C
And the judge said, "This isn't a court of justice son
G C
This is a court of law".
C
They first sent me to Windsor
F C
And then to Stoke on Trent
In a holding cell in Liverpool
G
Three days and nights I spent
C
My solicitor can't find me
F C
And my family don't know
F C
I keep telling them that I'm innocent
G C C7
They just say, "Come on son, in you go."
F C
I was picked up on suspicion of something I haven't done
C B/C A/C G/C G
Here I sit in 'F' wing waiting for my trial to come
F C F
It's a cruel unusual punishment that society demands
C G C
Innocent till proven guilty, rotting on remand
F C G C A7
D
I ended up in this jail
G D
Built in 18-82
When one man to one prison cell
A
Was a Victorian value
D
Now three of us are squeezed in here
G D
And you can't escape the smell
G D
Of that bucket in the corner
A D
And we eat in here as well
They let me out of this cage
G D
To slop that bucket out
To get my food and bring it back
A
And if I'm lucky, get a shower
D
Apart from one hours exercise
G D
I'm locked in here all day
G D
You don't turn criminals into citizens
A D D7
By treating them this way
G D
Is the prize of law and order the stench of Wormwood Scrubs
D C#/D B/D A/D A
With judges quick to sentence sending more down from above
G D G
It's a cruel unusual punishment that society demands
D A D
Innocent till proven guilty, rotting on remand G D A D ...
