Sarpinto - Schengen Macht Frei by Sarpinto published on 2011-11-12T21:33:01Z Schengen is the name of the discriminatory and ill-designed visa regime of the European Union (EU). This song is the product of many visits to embassies of European countries to obtain a visa which is a painful, costly, time-consuming and humiliating process. I believe it reflects the experiences and feelings of many people who have ever attempted to obtain a Schengen Visa. I realized that many of my European friends are unaware of the difficulties non-EU citizens face when traveling to Europe as most EU passport holders can travel to many countries without the need to obtain a visa. This is my attempt to raise awareness about the Schengen Problem which I believe is a violation of basic human rights and I wrote this song to pass the message across.
