NOW MORE THAN EVER. POWER TO THE PEOPLE!
Patti's lyrics are poetry.
I still appreciate her optimism.

This comment was posted over 3 years ago. Since then, we here in America are a little over one year into tolerating this intolerable administration. I'm encouraged by the power of the American people, standing up against the tyrannical dictator who threatens to destroy this country and turn it into some kind of xenophobic, racist, and hateful land. The people do have the power over this demented behavior and we will not allow it to happen. Thank you, Patti. Your song means more now than it ever did.

Not her best song, but still enjoyable.

Great artist. I like this one & think it would be fantastic live. I would start the concert with this song!

I think this is the third or fourth time I've found myself checking whether this is Patty Smyth from the 80s band Scandal. I bet they both hate being confused with one another.

Luckily, I have the power to hit PSD
I imagine this would be thrilling to hear live, in concert with a mob of like-minded folk. But outside of that pressure cooker, this comes off as cold leftovers.
And the people have the power
To redeem the work of fools
From the meek the graces shower
It's decreed the people rule
People have the power

First comment in 19 years? Not sure much has changed people- and power- wise.
Judging by the rating, I\'m not alone in thinking this song is pathetic, particularly for an artist of Patti Smith\'s artistic credentials. It\'s just simplistic stadium rock of the worst type - even Jefferson Starship would be ashamed of this. Please can it be dropped from the playlist before it affronts our ears again?
Ahhhhh, would that it were true, Patti, would that it were true. Less so than ever these days. 
this tune always revs me up
Had to check if this actually was Patti Smith, confirms my belief that when she\'s good she\'s very good, but when she\'s bad ...she stinks really bad. This is embarrassing.
I like Patti Smith in general but this song is awful.
Gag.
