When I first heard this incredible earworm in a context that wasn't the 6Music playlist, I realised that it had been edited for language to such an extent that the uncensored version was almost like listening to another song entirely. The radio edit kept the essential melodic quality but cut most of the political bite, which you can hear to full - albeit brief - effect here. It's like listening to a stream of consciousness diary entry; occasionally poetic, often angry and overflowing with references to everything from deforestation to deep thinking vs happiness to power structures and exploitation. While still being incredibly catchy. A reflection on revolutionary thought, but one you can dance to.
