​@@LSLS1 I am a guitarist and the inconspicuous energy is absolutely mind-blowing here. You can describe anything the way you want to describe. Dimebag is just whammy wank on effect pedals. Tony Iommi is just pentatonic mumbling with a ring modulator. Marty Friedman is just classical scale sweep and tapping wank. Tom Morello is just acting like a chimpanzee battering some strings. That's not how music works, bro. Sometimes the simplest stuff is the best - could be because of the way it's arranged, how it complements the song's dynamics and texture as a whole.

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.

About a year and a half ago, my oldest son hollered to me as I walked in the door after my shift. "Mom! You have to listen to this band!" I listened for a moment, then walked away. My son called me back, because he wanted to share the music he "discovered". I returned with the vinyl. I put it in his hand. My son had discovered the music of my youth. He was happily stunned, and I was tremendously proud.

Wow...it gave you some real self-awakening, didn't it? But I think you missed the point of the line. Yeah, only you can set you free, but if you don't know exactly what you're freeing yourself from, especially if there are a lot of options into what you need to free yourself from, you're not going to do much more then stand around confused. Yeah, you're woke to the fact that you're a slave to the system, so good for you on that. But now what? Go ahead, cast those shackles off. It doesn't really matter if you lose your chains when you're in a never-ending desert with nothing but predators combing the landscape looking for little snacks like yourself. So you're now free of your chains in your eternal prison. Congratulations. Now get back to work.

@@daviddunford8265 hit and miss fella but the right idea is there. There is inherent danger in becoming woke, akin to the nail that sticks out gets hammered. Absolutely. To clear it up, the memery for woke lvl 1 etc. is actually useful. If you are lvl 1 woke, you are one of the most vulnerable category of people around. majority to yourself. You know not to blindly trust anything. Useful when applied, dangerous when only known. If you're gonna get woke, like the song, trust there's possibly a GOOD reason it came to be this way in the first place, and know that since it IS this way, you only have two real working options. Do your part to help fix it from the inside as a sporting player of the game that exists, or, operate outside entirely to infect and attack it, replacing it with whatever you see fit that day. Any other notion in your head about it will only cause you to hate things we need, and spend more time looking at things you won't ever use.

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.

Waaay back in the 80's, pre-internet, and 'Living Colour' had yet to be played on MTV or MuchMusic, I was at a RUSH concert and Living Colour opened. WTF ??? When all these, dread locked 'rasta dudes' came on stage, the entire audience was in startled awe...are we not at a RUSH concert?? Once they started playing...everyone in the audience went NUTS!! Simply OUTSTANDING performance and energy. When RUSH came on stage, Geddy Lee - lead singer of RUSH - addressed the audience and said in awe - 'Can you believe THAT?' One of the most memorable concerts ever.

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.

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.
