  1. Shame on You

    Shame on You is a single from the Indigo Girls album Shaming of the Sun released in 1997. The song's lyrics celebrate Chicano culture ("I go down to Chicano city park/cause it makes me feel so fine") and strongly criticize efforts against illegal immigration as being racist ("The white folks like to pretend it's not/but their music's in the air") and hypocritical ("They say we be looking for illegal immigrants/can we check your car/I say you know it's funny I think we were on the same boat/back in 1694"). Steve Earle sings backup and plays harmonica on the song. The song was inspired by filmmaker David Zeiger's documentary Displaced in the New South.

  1. Shame on You

    "Shame on You" was the Danish entry in the Eurovision Song Contest 2004, performed in English by Thomas Thordarson. The song was performed in Danish at Dansk Melodi Grand Prix in 2004, titled "Sig det' løgn". As Denmark had not finished in the top 10 at the 2003 Contest, the song was performed in the semi-final. Here, it was performed nineteenth. At the close of voting, it had received 56 points, placing 13th in a field of 22 and missing out on qualification to the final by three places, thus requiring Denmark to qualify from the semi-final in their next Contest appearance. The song is sung from the perspective of a man telling his lover that he is tired of the lies on which their relationship is founded. He sings that "you're my fire, you're my desire" in an attempt to keep the relationship alive. While Thordarsson himself is gay, the lyrics do not suggest either a straight or gay relationship. Musically, the song was originally heavily Latin-inspired, with many reviewers suggesting a similarity between Thordarsson and Ricky Martin. As performed at the Contest, however, much of this influence had been diluted - with commentators remarking that this was due to public pressure in Denmark.
