"Leviathan"
Song

Leviathan is a song by the Welsh rock band Manic Street Preachers. It was recorded for the charity album Help!: A Day In The Life for War Child UK in 2005. The song is also available as a download on iTunes. It takes its title from the 1651 book about political power, Leviathan, or The Matter, Forme and Power of a Common Wealth Ecclesiasticall and Civil by Thomas Hobbes. The song references Patty Hearst, the SLA, the Baader-Meinhof Group and the film The Medusa Touch.
