Best bit is after pale-as-the-grave chorus bloke sings 'Don't know what it's for', and he says, disgustedly, 'Business,' as though imparting some great political insight.C'mon, yiiiiiiih.
And the fact that he managed to recruit not one but FOUR tone-deaf warblers to sing his chorus.

Quote from: "Godpleton"QuoteAnd the fact that he managed to recruit not one but FOUR tone-deaf warblers to sing his chorus.He's clearly kidnapped them.I'm convinced he dredged the bloated body of that second one out of a canal only moments before the video. I've never seen a guy so pale.
Speak's wikipedia page implies that guy is a vampire.
His first single, "Stop the War", was explicitly political. In it, Speak weaves a complex tapestry of political philosophy
His own assessment, that "this is an anti-war song, at that time, after September 11, this was just timely", may underestimate the song's subtleties. This ignores the internal evolution present in "Stop the War": Speak takes us on a philosophical journey through extremist Wahhabism, Marxism, and finally optimistic Post-9/11 philosophy.
Speak's addition of the word 'bisness' (business) after the word war draws connections and connotations towards the military-industrial complex, highlighted by Dwight D. Eisenhower. He carefully alludes to a multifaceted paradigm in which war is carried out as business and, more thought provokingly, that war is now a tool for multinational profit. Parallels can be drawn from Speak's controversial statement to the ongoing privatization of the American Armed Forces and the the hypothesized secret cabal of big-business insiders running the current Bush Administration. With this short message Speak is silently asking for a lifting of the moral zeitgeist to stop the entrenchment of war itself in the nation state.
