“If we find a way how to act together, be articulate, focused and persuasive, we can shift mountains. Look back: people did it before. Soviet dissidents were fighting against one of the most oppressive governments on the planet and shared their own diy magazines (samizdat) via secret networks. Labor union leaders and civil rights activists were dying for their beliefs in the US. And it actually did make our world a better place.” – Nadya Tolokonnikova of Pussy Riot


Pussy Riot

The Russian feminist art collective known to the world as Pussy Riot deliver a musical/visual combo that just hits the core of our souls and makes us want to raise our voices. They bring with them a powerful message that is perfectly served with their must listen gem “Police State”. The talented group of women are not afraid to speak up and deliver verses and melodies filled with irony and satire that surely know how to deliver the message intended. They speak to us and tell us to look around and see the world and ask us ourselves if the authoritarian extreme right is a voice of …reason? I think you’ll hear their answer loud and clear in this song, probably you also already know my views in this subject by my way of writing and by how I support music. They invite you, me and the world to speak up when politics and government are trying to take more than they should …for we tend to forget that we as people voted them in, it’s not a right to power that they have but a right to speak for the people that they are suppose to represent.

Lyrics

Big smile for the camera

it’s always on

it’s all in the protocol

they tapped my phone

golden idols

holding rifles

take my body

anybody

i’m your trophy

make my nose bleed

now you own me

o my god i’m so happy i could die

o my god i’m so happy i could cry

everybody is doing the same

and it’s make me happy-e it’s make me happy-e

everybody is doing the same thing

and it’s make me happy-e it’s make me happy-e

no problems in paradise

we locked them up

we all have to sacrifice

it won’t be long

shut the borders

perfect order

sons and daughters

drink the kool aid

it’s the new way

do what i say

o my god i’m so happy i could die

o my god i’m so happy i could cry

everybody is doing the same

and it’s make me happy-e it’s make me happy-e

everybody is doing the same thing

and it’s make me happy-e it’s make me happy-e
