This land is your land This land is my land
From California to the New York island;
From the red wood forest to the Gulf Stream waters
This land was made for you and Me.

    This isn't Woody Guthrie singing it, at all. I don't mind the cover but annoyingly mislabelled.

    Land belongs to no person, in reality. It is land, sooner or later it rises , or falls, or erodes away. People delude themselves re owning land............. in the long term it belongs to nature

    the answer is probably money do the sexualised teens want Rhianna shaking her ass on Lady Gaga half naked or real art? The former IMO
