Words with Beats have MAGIC.

Words with music, lyrical phrases, or beats have more considerable -rather drastic- influence than words alone in achieving the desired result. 

Education has its VALUE and IMMUTABLE BENEFITS; some of my favourites are: 

• It fosters autonomy, self-assuredness, and bravery.
• It contributes to creating a more secure world.
• It enhances societal productivity.
• It aids in self-discovery and self-understanding.
• It boosts both mental and physical well-being.
• It encourages and sustains harmony within the global community.
• It nurtures the skills needed for problem-solving and critical thinking.
• It assists in staying abreast with a rapidly changing environment and adapting accordingly.

Education is IMPORTANT. But what kind of education has been debated for countless years. The following song raised the following concerns: 

The Education provided earlier and still NOW in some parts of the world needs to be changed. They are the methods of developing the stereotyped individuals incapable of thinking and reflecting critically so that the established 'norms' can be followed with zeal without questioning.

Background of the Song

The most famous section was released as a single. It topped the charts in the United States, the UK, and several other countries, a rare achievement for Pink Floyd in 1979. Its well-known refrain, "We don't need no education," has become a countercultural rallying cry.

The song examines the theme of alienation and the oppressive nature of the education system. Waters drew on his experiences in school, where he felt that the education system was designed to create compliant individuals rather than inspire creative thought.

Musically, the song stands out for its disco-inspired beat - a surprising departure from Pink Floyd's typical progressive rock sound - and its iconic children's choir, performed by pupils from a school near the band's recording studio in London. The chorus the children sings lends a powerful and haunting quality to the song.

The key ideas of this philosophy, as presented in the song, are as follows:

1. Critique of Authoritarianism: The song is a confrontation of an authoritarian and repressive educational system. It implies that educators should be more facilitative in students' education rather than simply acting as knowledge gatekeepers.

2. Emphasis on Individuality: The song stresses the significance of valuing each student's unique qualities. It argues that schools should treat each student as an individual rather than treating them all the same.

3. Importance of Critical Thinking: The repeated phrase "We don't need no education" could be understood as a plea for a more stimulating and original learning environment rather than one that only instils a sense of conformity and memorisation. The song’s lyrics advocate for encouraging pupils to engage in critical thinking and question accepted conventions.

4. Promotion of Creativity:  The song advocates for an educational system that encourages innovative thinking and discourages rote memorisation. It promotes an atmosphere conducive to developing original thoughts and actively encourages students.

I hope you will like the upbeat tune and wordings of the song and the philosophy behind it.
