The song was inspired by and dedicated to Marsha P. Johnson, a New York drag queen/gay activist whose body was found in the Hudson River in 92 (ruled suicide, but questionable). "The Johnsons" part of the band name comes from her.

BREATHTAKINGLY haunting, I heard your soul sing. May Marsha P Johnson know that you life and what was placed in the complex bowl of humanity was not in vain. .......THE GOOD IN HUMANITY HEARD AND FELT YOUR PAIN AND ANGUISH WHILST YOU WERE PART OF THE PHYSICAL WORLD.

First and foremost, im actually a hip-hopper. Not that i'm superficial, i know my roots and i'm open to other genres, mostly black music like reggae or 60s/70s soul, but for a few months i'm really diggin indie and singer/songwriter music. i stumbled over antony and the johnsons by chance and was immediatley astonished by his powerful voice and the feelings he's teansporting. I'm practically trying not to cry everytime i hear this song, great singer and great message!



Having a child creates a river of sorrow.
