Strange Fruit

ANÁLISIS | SIGNIFICADO

'Southern trees bear a haunting sight, with blood-stained leaves and roots, and black bodies swaying in the wind. The scene of the South turns grim, with twisted mouths and horrified gazes, as the sweet scent of magnolia is overtaken by the smell of burning flesh. The strange fruit hanging from the trees serves as a bitter reminder of a dark past, a crop destined to wither and rot. UB40's 'Strange Fruit' paints a vivid picture of the horrors of history, wrapped in poetic imagery and emotional depth.'
