That is a very good and appropriate comment, Laurent. It's the current regime that is shocking, not the song, and our natural reaction is to use foul language to express our dismay and distress. And the song does just that and wonderfully well. It is a lot different than using foul language to shock or just for the sake of using it to sound cool and trendy. I fully agree, John. Laurent put it better than I ever could ![[Linked Image - Only viewable when logged in]](https://www.pgmusic.com/forums/images/icons/default/thumbs_up.gif)

BD,
Amazing songwriting. Lyric and Melody.
Killer production. Excellent mix.
Incredible work on the video. Mesmerizing.
Powerful.
fj Powerful - that’s exactly what I wanted to convey. Thank you for listening and your comment, Floyd. Much appreciated

Hi BD.
Your title brought to mind a line from Roger Miller's song "The Code Of The West: do unto others before they can do it to you."
I couldn't find my pass to get through the Google gate but
I assume it's a f.....g good song as you're known to be handy with that sort of thing.
Vic

Great song! Excellent choice of words!
(We Europeans live lightheartedly with swear words; the French language is full of them, for example, not to mention some German dialects.) Thank you, Opur Yeah, you're right, here in Europeland, we're a bit more relaxed about swear words. Banning a word has never worked anyway.

B.D,
That's an incredible hard rock song.
It's also full of protest spirit.
From gentle love songs to hard protest songs, I'm amazed by the richness of your talent.
And it's definitely a song that requires parental advice.
As always, the video was fantastic.
Enjoyed my listen and watch a lot.
Best regards.
Shigeki Adachi

I had to pass through the gate keeper's portal to watch and listen. Luckily it was just signing in - no way I'd provide ID to Goggle & Co.
Nice bit of modern, high gain rock in the very popular genre of symphpopmetal with femme vox.
The narrative - yes, indeed.
The music - fits the genre really well but I'm not a fan of that guitar tone personally.
ACE Thank you, Ray, for finding the time to listen and comment. As always, much appreciated

I told you, Brain!
That censorship watchdog here is strict. What it did result in, however, is a totally unreadable title, which in turn generates a lot of interest!
If this Forum was placed in my country, or yours, the watchdog would have added some more f**k words, I think.
I also told you how great the song is! And the vocals, wow! Also the lyrics and video are great too. I really enjoyed it all.
But I wouldn't make it, myself. My voice is too low and it's a bit too wild for me.
Well..., in about a month or so I will release a House song. Than maybe we can compete about wildness ;-)
Hans Thank you so much for your kind words and for your support here and on YouTube, Hans. MUCH appreciated I don't really do "wild" things just for the sake of being wild. I have emotions, and I try to express them using the same words I would use if I were talking to you in real life. The lyrics of this song reflect (more or less) what my wife and I talk about after we’ve heard the morning news. Including the swear words. Minus the rhymes, though

I think there are more f-bombs in this four-minute songs than in The Wolf of Wall Street  . Outstanding lyrics, melody, and production. that's all that needs to be said. Now I have to watch "The Wolf of Wall Street" and keep count... Thank you for your kind feedback, Scott. Mucho appreciated

F bombs? We'd say about average for one episode of so many series nowadays. We're late to the party but we've read all the comments and, for us, DC nailed it. Regarding the narrative it needs to be said in whatever way grasps attention. And it was very well stated. All of the tracks and the great mix yielded a stadium filling sound. It setup a standout soundstage on our monitors. Simply EPIC! And really driven home with the video. Wow. Kudos and a helluva great production! J&B Thank you Janice, thank you Bud, for your nice and positive feedback. Much appreciated

I think I'd be one of those f*****s if I don't give good review for this song F-word used here as an instrument, usually used as a punctuation mark by young people, I can handle that but hopefully in smaller doses next time  You've managed to get the maximum amount of anger out of the vocalist. And together with the tight guitar band and great selection of BIAB instruments, this grows into the epic Praise Worship Uptempo song as the style describes. The dynamics is once again admirable, both in the arrangement and the vocal work. I sign your message, why is it more ok to bomb children, but not to say f***, expressing as loudly as possible the desperation of fighting against real problems that they want to sweep under the rag... Glad I joined YouTube more than 18 years ago, so I didn't have to prove my age I really enjoyed the suffering so mission complete Janne Thanks a lot for your kind and, as always, detailed feedback, Janne. I really appreciate it And you're right, the goal was to express maximum anger with as few words as possible. By the way, I'm surprised that YouTube computes your age thus losing the opportunity to verify your ID

Hi BD.
Wow! That opening piano is brilliant. Then the song came along. I'm literally completely spellbound. Everything about this is music par excellence. This is one of the most lyrically powerful songs that I've ever heard. Moreover, what you say really does need to be said (over and over again), and there is no other word in the English language that can amplify feelings and transmit anger like the f*** word.
The music is amazing. Not only do you have a sublime melody, but your arrangement and video are also extraordinarily good.
By every measure, this is super-polished and superbly engaging.
--Noel Since writing lyrics is the most important thing I want to improve, that really made my day, Noel. Thanks a LOT

Thanks a lot, Scott I really appreciate your support here and on YouTube BTW, to all the guys'n'girls who still read my replies and couldn't watch the video because of the age restriction: The song is now available on Spotify (sorry, no SoundCloud link - SoundCloud refuses to publish it because of the album cover) Just click the Spotify link in my signature to find it. (I had to switch distributors to get it published, but that’s another long story that I’ll tell sometime in the future.)

Hi, B.D.
Well. I'm only two months late to this f***ing party, but I'm glad I got on before the train was gone for good.
Excellent production all around - especially the vocal performance.

Hi, B.D.
Well. I'm only two months late to this f***ing party, but I'm glad I got on before the train was gone for good.
Excellent production all around - especially the vocal performance. Better late than never Thank you for your nice feedback. The vocal performance took up almost half of the mixing time, with tons of automation and stuff, but I also think all the effort was worth it. It’s helps to have a motorized fader...
