I would completely agree with this comment. The reason is this. With the amount of media saturation and people being Instagram famous now, everyone gets the bulk of their entertainment from ingesting the personalities of others who are broadcast to them through all these platforms. Some of the lyrics are virtually prophetic, given that the internet was barely a dream when it was written and at that time, you only had the personalities of broadcast TV or MTV at best. The people we adore are being everything we want them to be, quite literally.

I think there's a consistency in the chorus: they've always been spoken by the deceiver. "You won't have to follow me, only you can set me free" in the first chorus seems to imply that the deceiver was trying to win people's sympathy by playing an underdog or a victim, but this was only the beginning of a bigger plot, and the deceiver must maximize the profit through the next step: incite the public. "He won't have to follow me, only you can set you free" in the second chorus seems to imply that the death of "a leader" doesn't have to matter, what matters is YOU, every member of the society who falls for "cult of personality" and agrees with the deceiver. Protest, riot, or do whatever you can for a "movement", so the deceiver can expand his/her influence and cash your efforts in.

neongreenrules I guess bodyglove wetsuits had a hand in printing federal reserve notes, considering their logo is on the $1 bill. It's a hand with a gash in just the place you would cut your hand if you were to make a blood oath. Funny how there's a faint sword in the "grass" in front of the pyramid pointing toward the part of the hand with the gash. The only thing missing is a reflective ink blot on the upper part of the middle finger, and it would be pixel-for-pixel. Pure coincidence. It's not like someone who starts a clothing line worn by media elites/the bourgeoisie has to be rich already, and they totally have no ties to the mafia. Even if they use the same symbols as the mafia, they have no ties to it. Forget the fact that the symbol in question has been tattooed to Mafia hitmen. That's unimportant. It's just some cool looking hand thing.

Just look what happened to JFK when he spoke about "not wanting to serve the interests of a great fraternal organization (secret societies)" and wanting to stop Israel from developing a Nuclear Power Plant as well as wanting to pull out from Vietnam. Hitler banned secret societies across Europe, kicked out the Central Bankers (Federal Reserve/Rothschilds) and started printing their own economy next thing you know all neighboring countries waged war against Germany. Even the United States preferred siding with the Soviet Union (who had been killing millions of people since 1917) just to stop a tiny country like Germany.

@wynfrithnichtwo84232 жыл бұрын
They may have won awards but they also went away as quickly as they arrived. There was one other song that hit rotation, but it never gained this traction. Then to be honest came Nirvana and hard rock/metal dropped in popularity, which took all the bands like this with it.

Was and still is ..one of the greatest songs ever made..hands down. We need this song to be heard now more than ever. This song literally changed the way I looked and heard music in 1988. I was 14 years old then..I am 47 now and my opinion has never changed.

Living Color is one of my favorite bands. If you like metal/thrash, a new band called Unlocking the Truth is worth checking out. Every time I listen to them the riffs and melodies get stuck in my head for days. Their first album is called Chaos and has some really strong songs on it.

One of the most underrated rock bands in history
@Britton_Thompson5 жыл бұрын
Nah, not really. This is the only album they had any success with. Sure, they had a big hit with this one song, but they had no longevity. They also had the historical misfortune of carving out a fanbase at the worst possible time in rock history by being sandwiched between two era-defining juggernauts-- first Guns N Roses, and later, Nirvana. Plus, the slow burn of Metallica which had been a very organic, grass roots campaign up to that point was reaching it's crescendo around this time too. Unless you could hang with those three bands, you were toast back in those days.

Ok again,I say ONE of the most underrated rock bands, there are dozens more,Especially overseas that many people in the U.S.have never heard of ,yet are some of the best in the world at what they do.And they do not need some fake wrestler, or a lame video game to make them , nor does living Colour because they are musicians
