There are millions and millions thinking this is so great
That we all live in a military state
Mindless consumption and endless competition
You pay a high price for being born American
Well I had nothing to do with it
I, for all my life fought against all of this
Harry’s vocal delivery is harmoniously mellow and projects a magnetically appealing authenticity that rings through the soundscape. His voice rides along the wistful and reflective instrumentation with a flawless self-determination that captures the essence of the song. Harry’s voice is extremely engaging, not boisterous or “in-your-face”, which enhances the empowering factor of the messaging…not preachy…but it comes off as a guy simply stating his viewpoints and it’s easy to absorb. “I Just Want You to Know” is a song and composition that activates your mental imagery and may challenge your way of thinking.
Commodification
Corporatization
The long slow death of a beautiful nation
