Rhythm Hunger Nation

4...3...

2...1...

"With music by our side
To break the color lines
Let's work together
To improve our way of life

 Join voices in protest
To social injustice
A generation full of courage
Come forth with me

People of the world today
Are we looking for a better way of life
We are a part of the rhythm nation
People of the world unite
Strength in numbers we can get it right
One time
We are a part of the rhythm nation

This is the test
No struggle no progress
Lend a hand to help
Your brother do his best
Things are getting worse
We have to make them better
It's time to give a damn
Let's work together come on

People of the world today
Are we looking for a better way of life
We are a part of the rhythm nation
People of the world unite
Strength in numbers we can get it right
One time
We are a part of the rhythm nation"

             -Janet Jackson, Rhythm Nation

 

If Katniss Everdeen doesn't lead a big synchronized dance number at the end of Hunger Games it'll be a missed opportunity of behemoth proportions.

Rhythm Nation is one of the greatest music videos of all time.

Aaron - agreed. That whole album. holy hell was Janet on fire.

Well, that was terrible. If you're going to rip off Janet. Do it right. That is my favorite album by her. "Black Cat" is my favorite track off of that album and "Love Will Never Do (Without You)" was a video I'm sure made a lot of young boys' balls drop.

...AND Nathaniel just won the internet.

Katniss is WAY too morose to lead a dance number, but Jena Malone's Johanna TOTALLY could!

I just YAS'd so hard. That is BRILLIANT.
