The Yeah Yeah Yeah Song (With All Your Power)
"The Yeah Yeah Yeah Song (With All Your Power)" is a song by The Flaming Lips, released as the second single from their 2006 album '' At War with the Mystics''. It is their highest-charting single so far in the UK, peaking at #16. About the song The theme of the lyrics is more political than their earlier material, as it asks listeners what they would do if they had all the power in the world. The questions asked are answered by a chorus of repetitive "yeah"s in the first verse and "no"s for the second verse. Wayne Coyne has repeatedly stated that the song does not directly refer to George W. Bush, as members of the media have speculated, but serves as a general statement about abuse of power. Coyne summarized his intended interpretation to the band's audience at the Austin City Limits Music Festival that "Power is like money. It should be earned, not given to you." This song was used in Intel's "Raise Your Hand" ad campaign, which features text question over shots of people in v ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
