I won't file a complaint or a request to block this thread, but I sincerely see no purpose in posting this here.

I find it slightly offensive, quite annoying in terms of noise and lack of musical content, and rather pointless.

I'm not in favor of censorship, and perhaps the purpose of the post went over my head, so I will ask the poster:

Why was it posted?

And the chorus, catchy no?

I only watched half of it and decided it does not make much sense.

but the song is awful. And the Christianity/Communism thing is pretty...pathetic really. Sounds like a fundie trying, and failing, to be smart and make a point.
Great film though.

Always loved Negativeland -- folks should look into them, not just their music but their activism. This song always one of my favs... I even have the T-shirt, now w/holes.

Don't get to wear it out, much ... go figure.

loop on this artist.

So sorry, just a personal taste issue here... sometimes I show my antiquated age and closed-mindedness about new musical performances.


My apologies to those who like this stuff, no offense intended to those who love it.
