What the President Said (Single)

David Poe - "What the President Said" - Single Cover - ECR Music Group

Lyrics

Don’t let him
Don’t let him get away with it

Did you hear what the president said?
Don’t let him get away with it.

Did you hear the president lie?
Don’t let him get away with it.

Show me what democracy looks like
This is what democracy looks like

Press

“It is hard to deny the expert craftsmanship of Mr. Poe’s songwriting and producing. In just over two minutes, Poe manages to create an amalgam of strong political sentiment and soul-stirring musical elements in a way that only an adept songwriter can. He seamlessly weaves in the layers of the handclaps and protest cries from the Women’s March, which magnify the song’s timeliness and relevance.”

“A completely new show, Shadowland will become, without doubt, one of the more important theater events of the new season.”
—Absolute Madrid

“In choreography, if you can’t be a genius, then you must be ingenious. Balanchine is a genius, Robbins is ingenious. Pilobolus Dance Theatre, I would have said a year ago, is simply ingenious. Now I’m not so sure that the gift of ingenuity isn’t capable of once in a while surpassing itself, so that we are shaken out of admiration into awe.”
—The New Yorker

“The dancers periodically sweep across the stage as one, just as the lights sweep overhead like the advancing bar of a copy machine . . . Both have a dehumanizing effect, but just as Mr. Poe injects pockets of hopeful longing into passages of insistent hubbub, Ms. Johnson finds ways to emphasize the lovely fragility of the individual.”
—The New York Times
