MESSAGE: This song is in recognition of all those artists who were also activists fighting for civil rights. - Hudba
I've been so looking forward to this reaction and it did not disappoint! Action is our power! Plus, he had the great Mavis Staples who adds so much to this! Thank you so much!!!
It's so refreshing to see someone actually engage with the lyrics. Watching people just not notice or care about what he's saying when it's so easy to understand and beautifully written is a bit maddening
Nina Simone cried “power” in her songs. Mavis Staples marched next to Martin Luther King Jr. for civil rights. They name activists in the song like “Billie (Holiday) cried power, (John) Lennon cried power, James Brown cried power.” Also Joni (Mitchell), Patti (Smith), Marvin (Gaye), Woody (Guthrie), etc. Joni Mitchell spoke out for the environment, John Lennon and Woody Guthrie sang in opposition of the Vietnam war. Nina Simone was a powerful voice for civil rights and as more people fell in love with jazz, with her music, more people of all ethnicities began supporting the civil rights movement in the USA.
There is a saying I often think of. 'I used to think someone should do something about that. One day I realized that I'm someone."
Such a powerful saying we should take to heart
This is a tribute to the activists of the past, like Nina Simone, Mavis and all the other powerful activists named who cried "power to the people". I love Hozier so much, he has such a beautiful way of making a statement. Listen to his Jackboot Jump next please.
Love, love this song!! Hozier is a lyrical genius - I use this in my English classes to teach close reading, the students love this!
You. You are my favorite English teacher now
You're the first person I've seen (both irl and online reaction) who recognized "It's the light and it's the obstacle that casts it" as a significant line. In my opinion it's one of the foundational messages from his album, but thank you for paying attention to the lyrics
I liked how you really went into dissecting the political aspects of this song, most ppl don't touch that part. I don't personally believe it's just about class, I think it's the intersection of class and many other things, but I agree that those in power benefit from keeping us divided, especially by demonizing oppressed groups. And I think being able to disagree but respect other ppl as humans is important. One problem I have with it tho, is that in many places the "disagreements" are often about whether or not other ppl should have basic rights. So I don't blame ppl for not wanting to be friendly with those who disagree about their very right to exist y'know?
This 100%! I feel it is easy to say "put your weapons down and find compromise or common ground" when your rights aren't the ones in question. It's easy to find compromise on shared experiences, like poverty, etc, but if they still fundamentally disagree on my very existence, to the point of possibly wishing me harm or death, that's hard to overlook.
This specific version of the song never fails to make me cry. It makes me feel power rushing through my veins, the power to rise up.
Thanks Sarah for sharing this song !! A wonderful uplifting song..!
Great reaction to a remarkable song. You caught the words and nailed their meaning. His song Jackboot Jump is along the same vein...I think you would really appreciate it. Hozier is speaking to the people at a time of consequential change, and either those of us that want to be free rise to the challenge or we all fall. "You know good things are happening when the jackboot needs to jump" Give that song a listen if you're interested.
Everything that we're Denied by keeping the divide ***** but still a perfect break down phil. Glad to be here from the cucumber squad
Yay its back watched it again thanku so so so much love love love this an your amazing reaction incredible request much love and God bless always x
I was genuinely shocked when I heard you talk about the real issue at the core of most of our problems being a class war. Best reaction I've seen, and EXACTLY what Hozier intended people to think about when listening to the song. Unfortunately, the message doesn't always get across. People's material conditions have not been very conducive to them recognizing the ways we're all united- otherwise we would've united by now. You got it spot on, brother
In the EP the organ is played by the legendary Booker T.
Fucking preach, man! I've watched a few reviews if this song, but yours is the only one that had anything meaningful to add.
Hozier is such a talented lyricist 🥰
I absolutely loved hearing your opinions about this.
The Wise should Recognise their own Wisdom Reflected in the eyes of Others When this occurs nothing will ever Disunite Us All
I really like how you break down music your comments are wright on
I don’t understand why people don’t see what’s really going on
Thanks
Excellent reaction video. You get it!
Omg I'm so excited for this 😊😢😢😢❤❤❤
It is the groundin' of a foot uncompromisin'
You have to HAVE TO do a reaction to Marcin Patrzalek and Sarah James. Please, please...
I will do Sarah James. Never reacted to her before. Marcin, you can go check my Marcin Playlist 🙂🙂
@@thefablesphere Rocket man she did on AGT... blows my mind every time.r
Talking abt Hozier, did u know Cakra Khan hs a smashing cover of "Take me to church "
Nina is a reference to Nina Simone. If you don't know her, you should look her up.
Please react to My Mind by Yebba
Hello sir❤Please react to beautiful Gigi de lana cover of "HEART TO HEART" by kenny loggins..thank you💞
Can you please react to Fever Dream by Palaye Royale
MLK talked about class war. No one speaks of this, but MLK advocated for UBI.
so disapointed you didn't pick the official video
Спасибо за вашу реакцию. Вы открыли для меня много новых имён. Отреагируйте, пожалуйста, на исполнение такого плана: czcams.com/video/WWKabrcUI48/video.html
LMAO that none of the reactors I've watched reacting to this song have known anything about the people mentioned in the song. "Nina cried power" is Nina Simone who actually cried, "Black POWER" during the Civil Rights movement in American during protests and sometimes from the stage when she performed. You get the word play in the title now? Criminy. People you're on the internet - Google some shite!
