Na, maybe they need to learn about discovery too.

swap that e and a

Kenya gonna learn about "discovery"

Well if Kanye thinks he's suing for royalties he done gone and fucked all his credibility so he's going to get laughed out of any court he's dumb enough to step into.

The song lyrics are literally to do with brinkmanship. Which is the term used for when we’re close to nuclear war. (Ie the impact of nuclear war)

A new Cold War has started. Biden said he’d send aid as long as necessary and fund the war indefinitely - that’s the definition of a Cold War.

This isn’t something you agree with. It’s a fact of reality.

The song used to be relevant when it came out, faded in terms of relevance, but now has newfound relevance.

Kids listening to this in the 90s never feared nukes dropping. Kids listening to it now may well have that fear. Why don’t you get it lol

(you still missed the point)

I don’t agree that the song has to do with brinksmanship per se, strictly the impact of nuclear war. I don’t agree a new Cold War has started. Few do. I understand the title and your premise, I don’t agree with them.

As to the rest of the content of your message I genuinely have no idea what you’re on about.

The song is about nukes ya doofus

Alternative mix of the song. Al: "[Engineer] Tony Papa and I liked the alternate mix because we thought it sounded more 'Phil Spector-y' but ultimately decided that the official mix was better for purposes of the album."

Depends. Are you stupid or not?

Al, 2014: > It was a simple enough video to direct. 98% of that video is basically stock-footage clips from public-domain Cold War footage. There was really only one shot at the end, which was easy enough for me to direct. That was also a video the record label did not want to make, because for some reason they thought a Christmas song about nuclear annihilation wouldn’t really play during the holidays. But I wanted to have a Christmas song out, so I funded the video myself; it wasn’t that expensive.

...and the 2 years prior had a global pandemic. Stuff happens, a lot. It's rarely ever just 'smooth sailing' and I think we take it for granted when it is.

To put it into context, WW2 was only 82 years ago. How many world-altering military, political, and ideological clashes have occurred since then all over the world? What about financial crisis, etc? People act like things are hunky dory all the time, and they really just aren't.

Saved you a click, It's fake.

Anyone know... is it supposed to be a style parody of Black Gold by Soul Asylum? They sound so similar and I never really knew what sound he was going for.

That's surreal.

Hey, that picnic blanket can totally stop temperatures hotter than the sun.

Not focusing on continuity is one of the things DC actually is getting right. We couldn't have a movie like Joker if they were locked into producing interconnected films.

Fr he’s just giving first hand account and comfort

You're the one having trouble with perspective

Later, kid.

I mean you’re the one having trouble understanding the term “newfound relevance.”

The song was relevant when it came out during the Cold War.

But an entire generation listened to this in the 90s and 00’s and the concept of nukes dropping was a relic from the past.

That’s no longer the case in 2022. Hence the ‘newfound relevance.’

I can’t believe you needed to have this explained to you.

Are you 12, or what?
