This is SOOOOO far ahead of it's time. And this was before reality TV became the norm. I have an assignment due about reality tv in a week. Have to pick a show, critique through essay form while applying Morrow's "Vast Wasteland" speech.

This song is THE first thing I thought of. Puts U2's 'ZooTV" into bigger prespective. Because many casual fans didn't come close to figuring out the message. Sad!

I'd listen to the radio and can the TV...it's too much money to spend on crap. No good shows at all..name one that wasn't just a colossal waste of time.

I can not believe the garbage people invite into their homes, (and minds) on a daily basis.....I don't care how supposedly good some of the programs are....the absolute rubbish definitely outweighs it.................7 years going on 8 since I allowed it in my home............I don't mean to preach but once you are out of the loop, it's shocking to see what's on offer...........xxx

@MissNATferfoglia Good comment..and I couldnt agree more. Things are changing though.Mainstream news are losing viewers as people turn to the internet and all the excellent alternative media thats out there. Maybe one day all the people who are transfixed by strictly come dancing, might show as much interest in how the world really works....but...i doubt it. "Watch the shiny shiny" as Frankie Boyle would say LOL

really well thought and laid out, the whole video brings all the lyrics directly to your attention and what they're about in a clever and sometimes humorous way.

Over all enjoyable 5 stars.
