SHOUT! SHOUT! LET IT ALL OUT!

So i watched the Finale for Season 1 of US Skins, and the song Shout, by Tears for Fears was the song that Stanley & Caddie sang (in UK Skins they sang Wild World by Cat Stephens) and I found myself instantly singing along (like I am prone to do when I like a song), and regardless of what you think of the show, one has to admit that that song is a classic. Not only is it a classic, but its a song that still has continued meaning, not just as teen angst anthem, but as a song that can define a movement.
People everyday in some way shape or form crave to be heard. Luckily we have the internet for that now, but what if we stopped to consider what would happen if tomorrow, the Internet were to disappear, how would one make their voice heard? Just a random thought.
