Power To Change - The Black and White Years

[wilson9T5]

change?



[patriciaharlow]

I've watched this video sooo many times over the years. Love it! :) Great song and amazing video, kinda drives it home.

[APortraitSky]

Austin Texas. :)

The video is really good to though!.

[soupietea]

I think change is amazing!

this song portrays it so nicely

they might have the power of persuasion....but we ALL have the power to change.

POWER TO THE PEOPLE!

[xBLOODBAFx]

YOU CAN HAVE THE POWER TO CHANGE BUT if your heart is not in it ....  -_-

[xBLOODBAFx]

we need to change our love of power and learn the powa of love.... power is just our ancesters trying to strive against eachother for dominance.... but thats just "left over monkey shit" and it fucks things over.... we need to transcend all that...

[tkquann13]

Great tune and awesome video. Love these guys.

[sallyanalbead456]

i love this song!!!

[Decimator334]

2:02 WTF!?!?

That is disgusting.

[zellersboy]

@Decimator334 fuckin sex change. even though i wasnt considering one, if i do im not! fuck the dick was like floppin around all over the damn place and they were ripping his balls out. SICK!

[UltraSupermom]

Love you guys

[Mathaius833]

You are so right, but you are talking about the most destructive species to ever walk the Earth, humans. I am very sorry to say, change will not happen and we will destroy ourselves because of our inability to change.

[spiffdude]

Very powerful video, thank you.

[Lennon82]

Thanks so much!

[ts3jane]

BOMB, LOVE THIS.

[Lennon82]

Thanks!  Much appreciated!!

[Lennon82]

The lyrics are awesome.

[cherubrck]

HERE ARE THE LYRICS (this will take me several comments)

needless to say, I won't go. I will be dead in the ground before the show, terrified and strange. still I will believe in the power to change. say what you will, what you'll say probably won't change my feelings anyway. things will feel the same. still I will believe in the power to change.//I remember now: the why and how - the idea and the firebrand. from sludge of sea to scourge of land.

[cherubrck]

we once were the same as the beasts and the rain and the earth and the cane and the ocean sleeping. and life was strange as the wet on the rain and the sweet on the cane and the creatures creeping. till along one day someone found a way to keep famine at bay, they stored and hoarded. the idea grew and their numbers too, till none really knew how they lived before it. and the idea spread till the others were dead and philosophers said, we need a savior.

[cherubrck]

but the answer was there in the bird and the bear, in the animal stare, in our own behavior. we are alone and estranged. I just hope we have the power to change.//must I emit, must I say everything that must be done to compensate for our contented age? first, we must believe in the power to change. people, it's done. let's let go. we have been striving too long to die so, it's well within our range. still, we must believe in the power to change.

[FlashFace]

Very cool. Love this song. Has a Talking Heads vibe to it.

[spazzythecow09]

i love this song but at some parts i cant understand him..anyone got the lyrics ;o?

[GMH1967]

Yes, please!! I've been looking for lyrics fo rmonths! Obviously quite poetic, as others have said -- so really really want to get the whole thing!

[elrikwulfgar]

Saw the boys at Stubbs last night for the Austin360 Concert Series kick off. Looked like most of the 101x gang was there. But inspite of that, it was awesome. You guys are great live. Hope you hit the big time and it looks like you're headed that way. You can really see that Scott has thought out his lyrics like poetry feeling and thought. See you guys when ya come back home to Austin, hopefully soon.

[iluminate1guey]

viva atx!!!

[nightdragon567]

i love this guys voice! and the video is amazing!!! fucking awesome

[mzurovec]

this is the most liberal, inaccurate, propaganda like video i've seen in a while. come on people, i just wanted to hear the song.

[Synchronicitical]

Actually it is pretty accurate... and I'd say it's more progressive than it is liberal (except maybe the gun fact if that pushes your buttons). As Stephen Colbert said,"Reality has a well-known liberal bias."

[warlocks4life]

Woot they put Bob at the end of the intro!

[Slammok]

OBAMA is young, dumb and out for the lazy - beware America. Hold onto your wallets because this guy is after it.

[whatabeast101]

dang man.....nice vid. i really liked it.

[moses2662]

KEEPIN IT WEIRD BUT INFORMATIVE

[Katio90]

Fantastic!

[471911]

you can keep the change.

[Lennon82]

Thanks dude, I need it.

[rixtar99]

Guns are not responsible for 300,000 deaths a year. The people pulling the triggers are!

though I am all for free hugs.

[evoke1988]

i agree, if there weren't people being seduced into joining a gang ( the army ) to kill for someone else to get money to live, or get "leadership" skills.. we wouldn't have a problem... also with illegal gangs, if there was more work put towards a good society instead of profits there wouldn't be a need to rob someome

[heat45jc]

go ride a skateboard

[evoke1988]

go to hell atheist

[heat45jc]

lol. i was so pissed when i read that, til i saw that you wrote it. i thought i was really taking a bible thumping. all religions are SO dumb.

[dizzytel]

That was seriously really awesome...great job =)

[Lennon82]

Thanks a million!!

[rocklesson86]

I love song and we do have the power to change.

[Lennon82]

I agree!

[PockyPlox]

love the song.

love the video and its message.

sending it to friends =]

[Lennon82]

Thanks!!

[OhsoScary]

ok that's it you have killed the word...R.I.P. Change.

no!, bad people bad people go to your cages bad.

Terrible Video

And cute censorship as this is my second post. Just like a socialist!

[rgitlin]

great video!

[blocker444]

great video! 5 * :)

love your music keep it upp!

[pointyearsrule]

Amazing compilation. good job on sound as well b/c the words spoken on clips doesn't overpower the song, yet both can still be heard clearly. Few ever make this work. Kudos.

[IgnoranceKiIIs]

...dude...

[rmr78666]

awesome video that really motivates you to create change! Love your music; Proud of you guys representing Austin awesomely!

[MLBBRB]

Great Video Scott. Love the intro with the compilation of "change" segments. Not crazy about the sex change operation.. but can see why it's relevant.

keep em coming.

black and white years... YEAH!!

[wickedfkngood]

oh ya, Scott you can come too. I'll have to ask about the drummer though ;) [...and the Paris quote is fantastic!]

[Lennon82]

I'd be delighted!

[wickedfkngood]

i'm SO fucking proud of all of you! and my mom wants Johnny and Landon to come over for Thanksgiving. LOVEjen

[ckmtree]

Awesome video for an awesome band. brilliant job.

[missbeckyjo]

BRAVO! This is fantastic, guys! I'll be sending it to all my friends! Love you! -Becky Jo

[usernumberp90]

I love the message this video is sending out! And I love the small Brady Bunch insert... =]

This is a video that needs to be circulated around the world, plus I love the beat.

[californiadr3aming]

Awsome message,awsome song overall great video!

[schmecky90]

This video is awesome! Very thought provoking!

[SwinSwinford]

Really cool. I love how it's not really partisan - just really great thoughts and stats.

[emitf]

[59leovirgo]

It is an awesome video. Hope more people know a little more 'bout this band.

[sixxaddiction]

I totally dig this video!

[Emsidoodles]

Absolutely love this, it's such an excellent song with a perfect video. :)

[spooneatingmonster]

Great video guys! very eye opening!!

[gunsnroses03]

nice vid, love it

[bigdude7]

[1940rn]

I love this video!!! It is amazing!

[hunnypotunlimited]

Thanks Randy!

[maggieMALICIOUS]

this song and video is just amazing. i respect the black and white years so much for putting out this message and taking charge.

[underoathandemery]

Awesomeness!

[maryska38]

this is so awesome! i love the music and i love the video! This is first song i hear by this band, and i need to listen more!

[tbone1619]

Obviously so many of us agree - great video, great song, GREAT message. SO WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO ABOUT IT? :) Change doesn't happen by itself, it happens through committed people working hard. Not to preach, but I would suggest that, if you liked what you saw, you pass this along to AT LEAST 5 friends who might also enjoy it. I'm sending it to 15 right now!

[GayDotCom]

It's a really cool song and the video is honest and quite informative and clever. I love it! :D

[cartmanrulz602]

dude, you guys are awesome. this video and your song really get to the heart of the world's problems today. thank you for this, we all appreciate it.

[eesinator]

this video is very well put together. i think the message is important and relates to everyone in our society

[girlfulfilled]

I love the intelligent aspect behind the song. The statistics are an amazing edition. I didn't know what to expect from the video but this has AMAZED me. Bands such as this deserve more success since their words and ideas would stimulate the youth population instead of encouraging them to embrace violence and making derogatory comments about women.

[rolltider17]

Cool video! Good job!

[willywonkamybff]

whoa, i really liked this video... to be honest i was looking at it b4 i watched it and thought eh another stupid thing, but i must admit i really did like it =]

[amesrocks23]

Niceee! ... Awesome! =]]

[cool76249]

Excellent awesome!

[XaneyE]

awesome!

[lUCASrOCKSBALLS]

Great video, really nice:P.

[sunshine75182]

This video is SOOOOOO TRUE!!!!!!!!!!!

[saxygator]

This video is really cool. It's put together extremely well and has some really great footage in it! This is DEFINITELY one to pass along to all your friends!

[SergeElysium]

Wow, I am left speechless! Not sure what to say exactly. But this video is AMAZING, I am glad I checked it out!

[EbbleX]

This is a great video with an equally great message! :D

[countrygirl101ai]

Wow! This video seriously made me think about how much change affects our daily lives and that we are in power of that change! Amazing, though-provoking video! Nice job!

[treebugg79]

This video was amazing. And an even better song. The message it sends is thought provoking. Awesome work!!

[Rlambaria]

You guys are still my favorites...and this will always be one of my all favorite songs. Good job! That said your asses in the car and come to Marfa!!

[LankyLongbean]

I love what this video is saying. Great message, great video!

[iamlost4815]

Awesome video, it sends out a great message.

[chupachup07]

I love the message of this vid, hope everyone that watches it feels the same.

[coopernichol3]

i love this video and the message its bringing.

[sabraelluver]

I just have one thing to say INCREDIBLE... great message!

[beckyb1956]

This is a great video. It really made me think. The song and video are perfect for each other. This would be great for anyone to see - well, maybe if they're not too squemish, the eye and surgery, etc. It is both disturbing in places and funny in others. Great Job!!!

[pdw55plv]

I think that the way to change is not to be so critical of those that do serve! My mother always told me, "Those doing anything will be criticized by those who do nothing." Great job guys!!! I agree there were some gross parts, but the truth hurts sometimes.

[filmakermom]

Phenomenal! Thought provoking. Great song and great video. This should be shown on the cable news networks.

[evilguest]

Bloody brilliant.

[reltub4]

Great video! I love that it shows so many kinds of change. It is very thought provoking. The music is perfect for this video. The glass eye is kind of gross. I love the baby laughing. Overall, simply great!!! You know hugs can lead to other things - danger lurks!

[jumanjifan01]

Video is great, but it's the song that ties it all together

[kramerbarff]

I NEEEEEDDDDDD A HUG!!!!!

[whitedolphin14]

great video, attention grabbing and hopefully a shove in the right direction. I'll definatly be sending this to my friends...and enemies, why not. everyone should see this

[snivilis]

Oh, btw, that last comment was me. -Libby

[snivilis]

I really, really love this video and this song. Wonderful job.

[cherubrck]

Long live Bill Hicks!

[erndog8]

The sex change IS gross. But that's not fancy video editing, Dubya DID flip off the camera back when he was Guvna of Texas...

[BarbroAldridge]

mostly thought-provoking and fun; sex change is gross; President's finger is offensive and unacceptable.  Like him or not respect the office. Try respect for a change.
