Back

One of my favorite #PowerPunk / PowerPop songs! Fun fact: I was voted most likely to become #PattiSmith in my high school yearbook. I think they meant it as an insult, but I took it as a compliment!

#PeopleHaveThePower!

"I was dreaming in my dreaming
Of an aspect bright and fair
And my sleeping, it was broken
But my dream, it lingered near

In the form of shining valleys
Where the pure air recognized
And my senses newly opened
I awakened to the cry

"That the people have the power
To redeem the work of fools
Upon the meek the graces shower
It's decreed: the people rule

People have the power
People have the power
People have the power
People have the power!"

- Patti Smith, 1988
