Malcolm Gladwell brought me here. His audiobook “Talking to Strangers” tells the story of Sandra Bland, and the song plays in between chapters.

[guitarvocs]

David Byrne brought me here. He is performing this song as a second encore on his latest tour. This is a powerful and simple masterpiece, and I'm grateful to the artist who wrote it. May there come a day no one has to write songs like this again. "Silence is the enemy and sound is the weapon." Indeed.

[pdl]

If this song got remade today, it would be about 20 minutes long.

Breonna Taylor, say her name. Breonna Taylor, say her name. Won't you say her name.

[carolinereid]

Came here from Malcolm Gladwell. He lauds the song on the audio of his new book, Talking with Strangers. I hadn't heard of the song before, but I'm glad I listened to it. Powerful stuff.

I just saw David Byrne last night. The encore song was "Hell You Talmbout" with added names, with Janelle's permission. This song needs to be sung; thank you for this video. The arts help to keep us sane in this tragic time. More artists (dancers, writers, musicians, actors, visual artists) need to make social justice art. Artists have the ability to create powerful works of art to make visible the horrors of society.

As soon as I heard of the tragic loss of Ahmaud Arbery I thought of this song. Just want to write this and say his name.

[tanham]

I cry every time I hear this Lord HELP US!

[monikahill]

there needs to be a new updated song for today 2020

[adamscoll]

George Floyd, say his name. George Floyd, say his name.

[viralynn]

[sharidogan]

Malcolm Gladwell’s newest book features this song! I had never heard of it! So glad to know it now! Thank you Malcolm and Janelle for immortalizing the lives of the voiceless!

[MR.F]

Great powerful song, and video! Needs more views!

[lemoncakesandmoonpies]

I heard this or a recent protest, had no idea janelle wrote this. Powerful

[bones]

Too many more names since this song was published.

[litawi]

I don't know why, but I teared up too. Maybe because this was so powerful. We are all connected like Amel Larrieux said "every time one of goes down, it's like I'm looking at my own blood on the ground". Great piece...too bad it wasn't more widely shared.

[berlinblount]

silence is the enemy and that sound is the weapon!

[AlexandriaBryan]

I remember Janelle and the Wonderland family did this last year at the #EephusTour in Philadelphia and I cried my eyes out…. I WILL FOREVER APPRECIATE THIS SONG.
