Philip David "Phil" Ochs (December 19, 1940 – April 9, 1976) was an American SingerSongwriter, famous for his {{protest song}}s (or "topical songs", as he liked to call them).
He was the most active during TheSixties, when he wrote hundreds of songs, covering many topics, such as UsefulNotes/TheVietnamWar, the UsefulNotes/CivilRightsMovement and labor rights. After the events of 1968 (the assassinations of UsefulNotes/MartinLutherKingJr and UsefulNotes/RobertFKennedy, the police riot in UsefulNotes/{{Chicago}}, and the election of UsefulNotes/RichardNixon) he became increasingly disillusioned and depressed, eventually leading to severe mental illness which drove him to [[DrivenToSuicide hang himself]] in 1976.
