By Les Ogres de Barback, from their album Rue du Temps. We've changed a few Parisian references to place the song in Montreal. We sing it in French but here's a rough translation for anyone who was wondering what it is we're singing about.
We Shall Overcome is a protest song that became a key anthem of the US civil rights movement. The phrase derives from a gospel song, possibly a 1903 song by Rev. Charles Tindley of Philadelphia containing the repeated line "I'll overcome some day", but more likely a later gospel song containing the line "Deep in my heart, I do believe / I'll overcome some day." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/We_Shall_Overcome
To The Barricades (A Las Barricadas) was one of the most popular songs of the Spanish anarchists during the Spanish Civil War. A las Barricadas is sung to the tune of Warszawianka 1905, a socialist song from Poland. The lyrics were written by Valeriano Orobón Fernández in 1936.
