Digital Soldiers

Where we go one we go all! To cut a long ripple effect story short, this great hymn to resistance was brought to my attention in the comments on a post by Matt Bellamy on Instagram. A Muse fan was complaining his song had been censored everywhere and it sparked my curiosity. So I asked him where I could hear it. He then explained that upon release, his video had gone viral and all the channels which had shared it got immediately shut down by YouTube. So did the Instagram account on which he had posted it, whereas his YouTube channel got shadow-banned — which literally makes you invisible to other users unless they enter your URL. Shame on those who still believe in conspiracies! Since I loved this song so much (the kind Muse would appreciate) I had the idea to share it on the Telegram chat of the DéQodeurs (a French community committed against mainstream fake news) who promptly reposted it on their news thread, which helped Gordo {Bot} increase their number of views and even receive donations to help fund the making of a full album, and also owed them supportive comments from many French digital soldiers. Gordon is based in Glasgow and the cute 5 year-old playing electronic drums in the video is his daughter, Melodie. You may also check his very stylish and professional official video HERE.

Where we go one we go all!
Trust the Plan,
Don’t take no for an answer.
Where we go one we go all!
Don’t you know we’re the
Digital soldiers!
Digital soldiers!

Take a little time,
Think about the world
That we live in;
Think about the lies
All the time,
No one said it was gonna be easy.

Fly into the night,
Are we dreaming for a miracle?
Open mind?
Open wide,
No one said this was gonna be easy.

There’s people praying day by day
(Listen up and you’ll hear them say)

Where we go one we go all!
Trust the Plan,
Don’t take no for an answer.
Where we go one we go all!
Don’t you know we’re the
Digital soldiers!
Digital soldiers!

Corruption with a smile
Do we really know who to trust,
And who to believe?
All the while,
They’ll be running
And running and running.

You better hold tight
Because the swamp runs deep
With the things we don’t see.
Open mind?
Open wide,
No one said it was gonna be easy.

Sink? Swim?
Who’s in?
(We all want peace and harmony)
They won’t give in — no!
(Never never)

Where we go one we go all!
Trust the Plan,
Don’t take no for an answer.
Where we go one we go all!
Don’t you know we’re the
Digital soldiers!
Digital soldiers!
