    Very impactful song. Not to be a traitor to my species, but homosapiens need to recognize, being a keystone species, that everything we do affects other species--whether it be good or bad.

This is a powerful song with a message we all need to follow.... our food chain is so delicate and if we cut anything out of it, the consequences can be cathastrophic!!

    Pharrell and Chad's productions remain stellar! ... always pushing that creative envelope further while at the same time paying homage to the past... I'm digging the ending too: "...He made this world, took it and gave it back again, and we learned nothing..." Brilliant. And no surprise at all from these two geniuses.... *****
