Fèy
"Fèy" is a traditional ''vodou'' folk song in Haïti. In Kreyòl, "fèy" means "leaf", and the lyrics of the song describe a leaf falling from a tree. Like many traditional songs in ''vodou'' folklore, the lyrics of "Fèy" can hold many meanings, both religious and political. At least two ''mizik rasin'' bands in the 1990s sang adaptations of the traditional song. A version first performed by RAM in 1992 was banned throughout Haïti during the remaining years of the Raoul Cédras military junta.
==Political history==
In 1991, a military junta headed by Raoul Cédras seized power in a coup d'etat, overthrowing the elected president, Jean-Bertrand Aristide. RAM, a ''rasin'' band in Port-au-Prince, which had run afoul of military authorities before, first performed "Fèy" at the 1992 Carnival in Port-au-Prince, and then began to perform the song during their weekly concerts at the Hotel Oloffson. Despite no overt references to the political situation, a recording of the song was widely played on the radio and immediately taken up throughout the country as an unofficial anthem of support for Aristide. Playing or singing the song was soon banned under military authority, and RAM's leader, Richard A. Morse, was subjected to death threats from the regime.〔Shacochis, Bob (1999).

"Fèy" was released on RAM's first album, ''Aïbobo'', in 1996.〔RAM (1996). ''Aïbobo''. Cave Wall Records. ASIN B000008Q17.〕
