    I’ve heard of one big protest song by a pretty mainstream artist which didn’t autofill on youtube when I just searched for it and was apparently buried. I wonder how many other songs were buried.

    I’m surprised at the lack of folk songs about Luigi

      Here you go. There are a number of ‘corrido de luigi’ songs out there.

        Using this as a place to infodump because I just learned it: you know how haikus follow a 5-7-5 syllable pattern? For corridos every line is 8 syllables.
