    My high school sent home a packet saying that if we write anything "slanderous" about the school on teh internetz or newspaper or "underground newsletters" they can deny our graduation.  This song started playing in my head.

    His voice is like no other. It gives me the chills every time. Even just reading his poetry. There will never be another like Serj Tankian. He will forever be my favorite.

    The reason Serj isn't as mainstream as other singers is because most people don't really enjoy music (despite claiming to do so). Most people put music in the background, to prevent silence. I've noticed that people who listen to Serj or other not so popular artists who make good music with good lyrics, they sit down and listen to the music while watching the video. They want to understand the song. Your average person doesn't want to understand the song, so they don't care how good it is.

    "Open your eyes, Open your mouths, close your hands and make a fist" Reference to SOAD's first album :)
  • @OmegaSoypreme
    The line "Open your eyes, open your mouth, close your hand and make a fist" was in the liner notes of the first System of a Down album. I was so excited when I heard it in this song!

    Why the hell doesn't this have more views?!
  • @fooff1
    "Down with the system" I'm like :D
  • @anonimus5996

    It is amazing how this video was made by 16 year olds, nice job.

    Serj, i don't think, that you'll read it, but i just want to thank you. You make wonders. The song ends ten minuts ago, but i'm still sitting and straing at the screen. And it's my reaction after most of songs, and every next one is better, more shocking, and though-provoking. It's incredible how you mix music, lyrics, and video. You change the world by your songs. Thank you.
  • Things like this makes me feel that there is still hope in our generation "Millenial", thank you Serj.

    This song and video are both masterpieces. Thank you Serj!
  • @zimeron1
    Anyone who can work "Commercial Orwellianism" into the lyrics of their song is mad genius
  • @MultiHungryGhost
    Всем привет из России! По моему это самая лучшая песня в альбоме, не передать той радости, которую я испытываю, когда слушаю эту песню, а тем более когда вижу клип :D
  • @TheCrusaderBin
