This is definitely a multi-generational song. I was at a wedding Friday night and the D.J. downloaded it by request to play at the reception. At least 3 generations of woman screaming out the lyrics. Girl, you didn't just write a song, you created an anthem.
My sister was killed by her husband in October. Thank you for putting my rage to music. The power in this song brings tears to my eyes. It’s our power, take it back with no apologies, ladies!! 💜
My 26yo sister & 2 week old nephew were killed 17 years ago by her husband & the babies father . Which he beat her throughout her pregnancy because he thought the baby wasn't his he even cracked his skull when he was a week old and send him to the hospital and then he found out in court after he killed them that it was his son.
Boy, I needed this. When I was 18, I was violently raped and have dealt with it. Now, I am 72 yrs. Old have have been avenged. Thank you, Chinchilla, this was exhilarating and wonderful. I always needed this. For this, you have my deepest respect, admiration, and my love.
Thank you for sharing your story. I'm in my 20s and have dealt with sexual assault. Seeing people willing to share such a vulnerable experience helps me feel less alone. I wish you the absolute best ❤
my at most respect for you for being a survivor yet also being still vulnerable and caring enough to share in hopes this can ease your pain and yet help others heal
You know how I know us women have the mental resilience to put any man to shame? We can go through the most unspeakable pain caused by men, and yet 9x out of 10 we do not become abusive, serial killers, etc. We can absorb insane amounts of violation/mistreatment, and not emulate any of those behaviors (preying on the innocent vulnerable). Now we prey on the predators. Gavin DeBecker was right - women should be very proud of these traits. 💪
For every person who was taught they could not fight back, who was gaslighted into keeping their mouth shut a/b sa, for every person who watched their abuser live a seemingly happy life while they sank into depression!! This Song Reaches Down Into Your Soul and Inspires A Warrior Spirit!!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH Chinchilla!!!!!!!!
@@Angela-kc5ui I see your point, but I disagree. My daughters seen much worse watching movies and stuff on RU-vid. I don't think the video itself is for her, but the song is basically about not taking shit from people. My kids are tough, yet gentle. To each their own, but my kids won't be taken advantage of.
I'm a 44 year old man and it makes me sad to see so few men posting on here. This song is amazing, gives me chills, and makes me want to run through a wall for all you women that have been through such awful things. Please know you are loved and you are special!
Thank you for being one of the few men that exist still to see the other side of things and not take offense, instead you see our pain and feel for us. Much respect to you ❤
I worked in the Indie sector of the music business for 25 years and to see what you have achieved and are achieving I know will inspire thousands of up and coming artists. Long may you reign.
I concur. I was touring in the nineties into the 2000's... Seeing so many bands play before or after us was pretty tough sometimes... But every once in a while there would be someone who came out of nowhere to steal the whole weekend! This is worthy of all the praise that you receive. Be strong, stay humble, and make some f'n NOISE! best of luck
I'm loving this era of female rage music, the absolute BANGERS these queens are creating out here. Future Music history is gonna be lit when they get to this chapter.
65 year old grandmother here. LOVE this! Young women are writing these amazing anthems nowadays and how do you say it…? Oh, yes: I AM HERE FOR IT! The video is perfect. ❤❤🔥❤ #CHINCHILLA
@@JhadeSagrav 🌹Stay strong, safe, and true to yourself! You younger women give me hope that you can change your worlds so that you do not fall into the traps that marriage and/or children can bring down upon you! Patriarchal societies don’t keep the vulnerable people safe. We must save ourselves.
I love how ladies from every generation are praising and vibing to this song. What an anthem for women. This is what I want to see from feminism, not “men are evil”, but “women are strong”. Positive, empowering messages EVERYONE can get behind.
That's all pc and everything but u know the laws had to be different back in the BC days 😁. Bc & it def shows. I'm speaking from my own experience. That's not me being bitter. It's talking from my own experience/S. Bc tbh not even my dad would be talking down to a females career choice if ppl had to know that 1 that bad. Or just even find an interest. Or or he's Asian. He sure did want me to be in tech or medical. But anyways, yeah. If the shoe fits, wear it. Bc I can not imagine a male coming here & toxicly making it be about him. You've learned Nuffin! Nothing at all! Not even at a hunded,,,
For someone like me, who's survived and escaped an abusive relationship after six long years, this song just hits ... special. Screaming this at the top of your lungs is soooo cathartic! Thank you for the anthem QUEEN!!!! Nothing but love!!! ♥♥♥
I am also a survivor of abuse, first growing up, then for 16yrs in a relationship and I stayed to avoid going back home. I am finally free of all that and pray I never cross any others like them.
We can't fight back when they drug us. It's rampant and we can't report what we don't remember. Insidious. We have to decenter men from our lives and trust no one.
I’m a teacher. Today, I had to call CPS for the second time in 24 hours. She is the sweetest, softest spoken 10 year old I’ve ever met in my life. The strength and courage she’s shown so far this week is more than you could ask of most grown men. Yesterday, the dam broke and she started disclosing…today I had to call because it seems he (Mom’s boyfriend) may have broken her jaw. She didn’t cry when she told me. Tears just get her more pain, she said. I’m listening to this song in Cali’s honor. Please send prayers and good will her way.
@@LiJa-hx9io She seems a lot better already. I know it’s not all sunshine and rainbows, but she’s got this subtle glow of confidence I didn’t see before. She’s smiling bigger, looking less tired, and she’s even coming out of her shell a bit more. I’m really proud of her.
@@sarahraisingmyvoice That little girl got all my Respect I dont know her but i know that she deserves the World after what shes gone through. Its good to hear she is feeling better already
As the mom of 7 kids and grandmother to 7 more, this made me cry. Boyfriend needs to be in jail and if mom is watching it happen, let her go share a cell with him. I hope she will be okay and I'm very glad to hear she seems to be improving. The children you teach are lucky to have you. Best wishes.
@@denisegrupe8588 Mom does her best, but she isn’t around 24/7 and she gets hit, too. Worse still, he’s their next door neighbor. CPS is involved an he has moved back to his own home. As far as I know, he is not allowed to be alone with the girls-ever.
I'm in tears. Female rage is beautiful and this song is amazing. So powerful and empowering. I love this for every woman who's reclaiming their power 🔥
As a 26 yr old survivor of C-PTSD caused by multiple traumas, music is a very important part of my day and one of my coping skills. You've created a beautiful piece of art and I am personally grateful for your creativity and passion. You've gifted every woman this anthem. Power, beauty, strength, courage, loyalty, self respect, bravery. As a survivor of multiple sexual assaults, listening to this song helps me feel protected. I feel that I can walk into a grocery store alone without being followed. I feel strong and i feel heard. I absolutely love the message and the intention. Thank you for giving us our voices back. For trying to comfort us and remind every lady how fucking powerful we are. ❤
@@PaolaLozanoYogaHello 👋 Madaline. How are you doing? Hope you are fine. I'm Zack Hudson and am from Denver Colorado. Where you are from? You seem like a real country girl
This song make me smile and cry all at the same time. This is a goddamn anthem, the embodiment of taking back your power. You don't know how much these lyrics mean to so many of us. As someone who has survived a lot and is struggling to get through the trauma, this song is so empowering. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!
I know im just a stranger on the internet buy as someone who has been through some stuff too I just want you to know I'm proud of you. I know it doesn't mean much from someone you don't know but the fact you're still here is cause to celebrate. The world can be cruel and you're still here kicking a$$! So just in case no one were told you, I'm proud of you ❤
@@BriskiTheFreak You don't know how much I appreciate your kind words. Thank you for reaching out and showing such kindness and support. It has truly touched my heart! Sending love and good vibes your way!! 💜
The rush of emotions I felt all at once listening to this song was exactly what I needed!!! You can feel the rage she holds and you can’t help but feel it yourself! I love this!!! I absolutely love this!!! This song alone is going to be what sets things in motion for the future of women of all ages who are going through something no matter what it is. This song is what’s going to help us take our damn power, our innocence and our voice back!!!!!
I am in the process of leaving, and divorcing, a narcissist I have been with for 24 years. I have this, and other empowering songs, on repeat! THANK YOU!! 🔥❤️🔥❤️
Sweetie, I'm a 52 year old, dutch woman (so please excuse some grammar or linguistic mistakes), you've captivated me with "Chalk outlines", brought out the Warrior Princess within me with 'Fingers' and a full-on She-Devil with "Little girl Gone" with only a lyrics-video and a bad-ass photo of yourself!!! You, my dear, my adoptive daughter (alongside your adoptive brother Ren. Yes I know you didn't realised you were my children, deal with it), can't go wrong!!!! Luv joe!!! 😘🥰
Fingers is a great song. It’s my next favorite of hers. I’m so glad she has got the attention she deserves. And as an independent! Yes!!! Can’t wait to see what happens next. 💙
I don’t think the artist realizes how big of an impact this song has on women of all ages and races who go through a lot. From domestic abuse in a marriage down to bullying in grade school and everything else in between. This song is our anthem and it will be a voice for all of us who are sick and tired of taking it!!! This song alone is going to move mountains and change a lot of shit that’s wrong with the world and I am here for it!!!!! 💯💯💯❤️❤️👊🏻👊🏻💥💥💪🏻💪🏻
Every girl and woman understands the building of rage at the monsters everyone else pretends they don't even see. I'm a GenXer and this speaks to me. What a great anthem for us all.
AMAZING!!! As a survivor of the type of guy who talks down to the little man, one who tried to erase my worth, and one who is getting his comeuppance as he sits in a cell waiting for trial, this song makes me feel so empowered. It is my new theme song. I'm so happy you're getting the recognition you deserve!!! You are an amazing artist all the way around, and I can't wait to hear you top all the charts as an independent artist. PS I'm 45 years old and this is the first video I have ever watched premier as it dropped!! 👏 👏 👏 🎉❤
Better to find your strength and worth later than never hon. I’m ecstatic for you and that he’s in a cell awaiting justice. I hope that it finds him. If not, you can buy it for a couple hundred bucks worth of commissary on the right persons account. Just saying. 😉 Sending you love and enduring strength, I’m so very proud of you and you should be too. 💪😘 ❤
for our family (our child), it's was a female .... and tends to be women for our family .... so, yeah, we are thinking of this song in different ways ... 3 cheers for comeuppance
As a daughter of a narc/abusive/pedophilic man, this song hits because I realized what he was during my teens years and now im in college, and I use this song as a way of venting since literally my mother has stockholm syndrome so she didn't believe me rather made up excuses for her husbands behaviour. And I'm the youngest, and he still believes he can control me yet I am the stubborn and spoken child of the family, it's really hard to control my actions unless I change them myself. Thank you
Def not alone. My father abused me my whole life. But I found out about 4 yrs ago that he molested my sisters little girl and was also SA my sister growing up. I'm the oldest, she's the baby of the family. We have a brother between us, who im actually trying to get help to get him away from my father. The law was lenient on my father, let him go home to care for my mother and mentally damaged brother. I believe my brother is the way he is from being shaken by our father. People aren't supportive. It just gets very quiet and lonely and depressing. People with good parents don't realize how lucky they are. Hugs to you ❤
Stay strong and know you're truth and worth .. I'm so sorry your mother didn't believe you, I hope U have supportive people in your life to get U away from abuse and speak your voice and truth and can live safe x
I'm a 50+ year-old male. I heard the song yesterday for the first time, I've probably replayed it 20 times. After reading so many of the comments here, adversity - tragedy - resilience, the song just gets more powerful. Vocally, dynamically, whatever technical jargon that I can't think of right now: Wow! This would be killer, even in a language I don't know. Then the lyrics hit your brain and heart with . . . is there such a thing as poetic volatility? These songs don't come around nearly often enough. I don't even know what to compare it to without diminishing it in some unintentional way.
I hear you glad you got it out i am so sorry this happened and hope you are ok but nothing changes the fact that this situation is to be discussed with a good paichologist. Not listening to a song. Trust me. This song on the other habd is stupit and acts more like false empowerment
So pumped for this. I was at a spinning class and I told the instructor to just play this song… let me tell you the class went wild and all of us for once enjoys the workout from hell!
Thank you! I almost died at the hands of the person i loved more than i did myself. Hearing this song made me smile, but at the same time cry so hard i had snot running down my face. It said everything I'd always wanted to but never could. Maybe he'll hear it in prison and think of me. ❤❤❤
Good Goddess is this therapeutic. As an older neurodivergent SA survivor dealing with the chronic health repercussions of holding that trauma for 40 years, I am so effing proud of you and all the young ones speaking out, expressing your holy rage. It will cleanse the world of the disease that is patriarchy ♥️🙏🏼🔥✊🏼
As a 12 year old, seeing those being assaulted and my self have been assulted before! Seeing this has given me way more confidence to not give up with myself and my voice! I hope all generations can listen to this.. x
👋 I was sa'ed at roughly your age and everyone either ignored or covered it up. I still get terribly triggered when I see him, but I'm able to realize he's a pathetic little man who is finally reaping karma. None of it was your fault and don't let people sweep you under the rug if your safety isn't threatened. Don't let anyone push you one way or another on reporting -- you never know what you're going to get and it can be scary. You deserve to feel safe and heard and I'm sorry this happened to you. You are strong and cunning. May your voice echo for many years to come
This song is what is gonna land her on the map and take her to the top. She’s not just singing an amazing song, she is a voice for every woman in the world who has gone through something, no matter what it was. She is the voice for all of us who have been stripped of our power and our dignity and our innocence and this is going to be what helps us women find our voice and take our power back!!
The music industry would never ever allow this song. Music industry as evidenced by everything being revealed especially now with Puff Daddy, is a demonic structure with extreme evil at the center, hatred of women is a mainstay of that structure
You did this project by yourself. You wrote a song with next level lyrics and passion that women have been missing out on and starving for since the days of Missy, MJ Blige and Queen Latifah. Your incredible vocals, harmonies and unique style all have combined with hard work to catapult you into the hearts of millions of women and strong men everywhere. It’s your time, Chinchilla! The MV had me lol literally out loud. Showdown at the local! What a brilliant idea. Much respect. Xxx
@@suzannesantos86 My husband and I share the same account so it’s understandable that you called me sir. But it’s really ok because his amazing mother raised him to be a feminist so he also agrees that your post is perfect! 🌹🌹🌹
@@dallasflynn5200 Oh, that’s wonderful to hear. We need more amazing mums out there teaching their children kindness and equality. Thank you for taking the time to appreciate my simple words. It made my day ❤ much respect from Tasmania, Australia.
As an American woman who's rights are being eroded in every way these men possibly can , i think we need an anthem that says " Messsed with the wrong bitch in the wrong Era " . This song is fire! And every woman who sings it at the top of her lungs can feel the power in those words . Love the video! Don't look now, but your hard work is showing.
Can’t wait for Summer protest marches, because they will happen and hearing the chorus blasted as a chant. Wish we didn’t have to March, but state legislators made that impossible.
Hell yeah. Another American woman who is ready for every bit of this. I’ve seen soooo many women lip synching this. It strikes a nerve in so many. You’ve created a masterpiece that has become the anthem for the fed the fuck up. That’s a beautiful thing.
2 years ago, I was lucky to be able to help our daughter and 2 grandchildren escape from her abusive husband. We hid them at home for a while as he did not know where we lived. This time and her support network, gave her the strength to stand up to him.
I cannot express how much I fucking love this song. Finally, FINALLY a feminine rage ballad I can scream at the top of my lungs to. The fake laughter to real anger at 1:15 lives in my head rent free every single day since I first watched this masterpiece. This is going to be the song to slingshot you to stardom, and honestly I don't know anyone more deserving of it. Knock 'em dead!
Your comment is interesting, so I’d like to ask you or any other woman here: Do you think female empowerment should come at the expense of men? This is a question that I have been trying to tackle for a while, and I want to write an essay about it eventually and I’d like some input. As a guy, my instinct is to say no, but I don’t even have half of the picture, so words from anyone would help me. Thanks!
I did not expect to actually cry the first time I heard this song. As someone who escaped abuse and is now going after said abusers this song came out at the right time
My daughter and I totally jam out to this song on repeat. She is totally self possessed and more confident than I was at her age. She doesn’t take shit from anyone. I hope she stays that way. I feel like this song encourages her to stand up for herself and continue to be a fierce force to be reckoned with.
What Courtney said. If my mother had said such empowering things about me instead of yanking me down to her level, my childhood and whole life would have been so different. Tell her all of this if you haven't. It means so much more than most people realize to hear a parent admiring the strength of their children.
@@Cloverkitty wow, I felt this on such a personal level…. I couldn’t possibly relate more to what you just so eloquently described. I sincerely wish there was a way that I could tell you personally how validating it was to simply read your comment where…but thanking you for your sentiments will have to suffice. Thank you for your raw words - they’re among the few I’ve seen that so perfectly encapsulate my life experiences… All my love to you 🙏❤️
I'm in my 40s, and you're my favorite female artist right now. My 72 year old mother and my 15 year old son are new fans. Thank you SO much, and we love you!
An absolute banger. And even for a 42 year old man the rage you put to words hits so close to home. Thank you for expressing what I couldn’t all this time.
I can't wait to see your new video. My adult daughter is a fan of yours & Ren, and she shared your music with me a couple weeks ago. I have been humming "Little Girl Gone" every since then. I LOVE IT! I've been sharing it on Twitter like a mad woman because you have created relevance that is so true for women around the world. I grew up in a domestic violent home, and swore MY children would NEVER, EVER go through what I had. your song is an anthem for women everywhere. You go girl. YOU GOT THIS.💜💞💜
I'm a black woman ...and the amount of times I've said "Say that again - I didn't quite hear you" lol Only to then hear those words as lyrics is amazing 🙂
I'm a 51 year old post-menopausal woman who did university for vocal music performance. This is my first time hearing/seeing this song and video. It just gave me an out of body experience in the best way. I have just been bitch-slapped by genius. Running to go watch more Chinchilla videos now 🏃♀️🏃♀️🏃♀️
I always feel like a boss every time I listen to this song. Why? As a victim of bullying, emotional and child abuse, and as someone who struggles with past trauma, the part where chinchilla sings "Honey, I've changed so much since I last saw you" truly stands out to me. During my childhood and teen years I wasn't really the happiest kid because of the way my own family would treat me. However, the only time I would be happy in those days would've been whenever I was with my friends or someone my age instead of my family. In the spring of 2016 by the age of 12 going on 13, I was diagnosed with mild Autism and my family tried to discourage me from telling everyone that I have a disability because they would think I'm trying to embarrass them, but I never tried to embarrass my own family just for saying I'm Autistic. It took me 5 years to open up about myself having a disability just because my parents tried to shut me up. Because of the fact that I am on the Spectrum, I've come to realize I'm thin because of how picky I used to be with certain foods which leads to the fact that every person with Autism like me has sensory issues, and I do too. My father used to force me to eat foods I hated just for the taste without understanding that, I have sensory issues, especially with taste. He also used to spank me when I was an infant, thinking it was the perfect way to discipline me, but instead, me, getting spanked as a baby caused me to become aggressive, build walls and have trust issues. This explains why I'm an introvert and why I used to be more quiet than I usually am now. My father and mother also used to sometimes force me to be social when I didn't want to, and my brother accused me of being "disrespectful" or "rude" just for being quiet. Everyone has to think before they do or say something and think about the outcomes. You can't just go ahead and assume what you say or do will benefit the other person without knowing the consequences. Sometimes, my own family would laugh at me when I'm being honest about something, thinking I'm telling a stupid joke when I am actually telling the truth. When someone speaks the truth, you gotta take their feelings into consideration and take it seriously. You can't take the truth with a grain of salt. When I was getting bullied in school, I would tell my parents and they'd do a horrible job at trying to tell me how to deal with bullying properly. In fact, they never taught me how to handle those situations the right way. All they would ever do is give me a dry response saying, "Eh, who cares?" Or just say "I'm sorry that happened to you" and do nothing to console me. My mother judged me by my physical appearance. There was a time when she forced me to wear a formal dress to a party where everyone was dressed in casuals, which I couldn't take control of because mothers think they're always right about something and are always trying to "win" and not accept that it's perfectly okay to be wrong about something, especially in a situation like when one thinks that everyone should wear formal clothing to every party, which isn't true. My mom also judged me for not having clear skin. I've been trying so hard through all of my high school years to maintain clear skin by maintaining a healthy diet and proper skincare routine with the right skincare products, and she still points out that I have a zit or whitehead on my face when she sees one. Acne is normal. It's not ugly. If anyone says it's "ugly," that's just an opinion which is a lie. Now, I'm not gonna let those bullies or my own family mess with me anymore. Over the past 20 years of my life, I've shed tears from all the pain and trauma of the past, but I'm not letting that stop me. I've learned to deal with this all on my own with some councilling (unfortunately I can't afford a councilling appointment anymore) and by spending some time alone and talking to some of my friends about these things I've been struggling with my whole life. It is by the grace of God that I have survived all this suffering from the past and that I am alive today. The sad thing is that, I sometimes question my purpose in life and who I am, which can make me become depressed and lead to thoughts of suicide and hoplessness because some of my trauma isn't fully healed, but I've learned to get through it on my own by staying strong, resilient, independent and faithful. Today, I am much more confident and happier than ever. I'm no longer afraid to be myself, look like myself or tell anyone I'm neurodivergent, especially to my friends and family. I am not gonna go back to being the helpless little girl I once was. My family may still see me as that little girl, but I am a woman now. And I may be an introvert, but that does not mean that I'm just gonna go ahead and let people cut me off to silence me. I'm not letting that happen. ❤
I understand you really well. I am good with my family but i am also ver introverted. And thats not a Problem for me atleast. I often have different opinions too and discuss woth my family, but i cant really talk with them, because they get so sensibal over arguments and stuff. Now i just dont give a fuck about other peoples opinions on me. I also got mobbed last year, but without real reasons, from just really stupid and "young thinking" people. Gladly i solved all this with my parents. And i was open minded since the middle school and my personality never really changed, its your life so do what you want and dont give a fuck about what others people think. You would be a great Gym Partner, because i think we have a similar motivation. Whatever, training helps a lot and nice to hear that you feel better.💪🤙
This thing hits like a wrecking ball. The poetic lyrics, the fantastic vocals, the awesome videography, the musical buildup, the immaculately layered production, and the utterly confident "swagger" of the whole thing. Bravo.
This song is halping me heal so much. I was assaulted earlier this year and im finally able to grasp the woman i once was. Keep healing ladies. We are in this together. ❤️
This is the anthem for anyone who has ever been in or is currently in an abusive relationship and wants out. This is how I felt at the exact moment I decided I had had enough. "Ding ding hold my earrings" is the most "lets throw down" line in any song ever without making a direct threat 😂 I have never identified with a line so much in my life ❤
"messed with the wrong b*tch from the wrong era" 💖 This makes me think of the domestic violence my mom endured and the same sh*t my daughter won't tolerate.
I'm 54, this brought me chills and nearly made me cry. Abusive survivor and afraid, still. This gives me hope for young women and hope that what happened to me as a young child and woman doesnt happen to anyone else, this is an anthem as some others already has said.
YESSSS. I still remember the blood on my teeth that stopped the years of abuse. The little girl was gone that day. I still paid hard for it, but this song is the first piece of art that catches that moment so perfectly. Thank you, Chinchilla!!
I’m obsessed with your song and I’m some random 40 year old stay at home mum. I heard it on one random POV and had to research it and listened it for 2 days on repeat (on headphones because my kids are small 😂). So empowering for many people (especially abused women). It’s the emotions that sells it and I’m not surprised it’s already such a big hit. You are such a talented and smart young women ❤
I am a heavy metal, punk rock guy - but through the rabbit hole that is the internet discovered your voice/music via the collabs with Ren (another internet rabbit hole find for me). Just writing a comment and giving a shout out here for your AMAZING voice and talent, originality, beautiful eyes and rad style. Great production design and wardrobe in this video. Hard hitting song. Well done. Best wishes, much love.
This. I listen to a bit of everything now bit as a a 90s kid with a colorful childhood, I mostly got into metal, punk, old school rap, and other aggressive shit. But I’m impressed with some of the new school hip hop and pop artists, making music like this. Idk if I will like every song and album but it’s a flex to appeal to people who don’t usually listen to your genre. Every now and then I find a gem. Hell, I wish I’d heard this when I was a little girl.
From another perspective, as a male reading the comments by so many women, I'm all teared up. You've touched a visceral nerve, you and Ren have come to save the world with Music and the power of song, and the spoken/rapped word.
My bestie put me on to this song last year, but it didn't really hit me until I experience it with the music video even though it's been on my playlist since first listen. She was jamming so hard to it we almost got into a car accident lmao. But I get it, I have that same intense connection with it now. I wish it existed a few years ago when I was getting divorced, but the sentiment still remains. Definitely requesting this everywhere I go now.
Wow...I heard this for the first time today and it gave me LIFE. I'm 47, a survivor of abuse and now I have another power doing to add to my bad ass lady playlist. Thanks so much for this one
I wasn't abused the way alot of women in the comments were. He was physical twice. But majority of my trauma came from emotional abuse. Cheating. Gaslighting. Always telling me I wasnt good enough. Fuck two feet tall, I felt 2 inches tall. I no longer take shit like that anymore and have learned my worth. This song hits SO hard on that for me. This isn't just a song. Or a tiktok trend. It's a fucking anthem.
First thing my therapist told me after I disclosed my rape to her, but felt unqualified to call it that because I was able to fight him off after a few seconds: "Every single patient I see who's been sexually or physically abused always tells me they don't feel comfortable claiming it as rape, or abuse, because 'someone else' had it worse, including patients who have endured the worst abuse I've ever heard. It didn't need to be worse for you, because it was already awful enough." He was physical twice, but how many times did he threaten you? How many times did he make you FEAR he was going to get physical? You don't need to qualify that your abuse was 'mostly' emotional. It was abuse, and you didn't deserve it. Your trauma is real, your trauma is valid, your trauma is IMPORTANT and deserves to be acknowledged as the abuse that it was. Just because 'someone else had it worse' doesn't mean it wasn't AWFUL for you, and you did nothing to deserve that. I'm so sorry he did that to you. You deserved, and still deserve, to be treated with respect by the people lucky enough to be in your life. Him abusing you is a reflection on how messed up HE is, not how deserving you were, because nobody deserves that. You're enough. You're worthy. You matter.
This is female EMPOWERMENT in a bottle 🔥. Your voice is so POWERFUL. This song hits me in the feels. I’ve been playing it non stop with obsession! You should be so proud of yourself. If this is your first independent song, I CANNOT WAIT to see what you do from here. Yass, a new artist to bang to. Love it Chinchilla 🫶🏼
@@inacorner sometimes you have to fight violence with violence. If someone was assaulting you, you wouldn’t fight back? If someone assaulted a young girl who didn’t feel she could fight back, you wouldn’t fight for her?
I love this song so so much. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve listened to it. I’m a survivor of childhood sexual abuse and grooming from an extended family member and it only ended because I got pregnant at 15. He used my sexuality as blackmail to keep me silent, got enraged when he learned that I decided to do open adoption and came to the hospital to try and see the baby and me. And after all that they didn’t even convict him cause they said he had mental issues, truth is he knew the judge. I struggle with PTSD and major anxiety because of that but listening to your song has helped me make the push to take my life back and fight! Thank you it makes me feel so powerful!
I was at my cousin's wedding this evening and the DJ played this and most of the Ladies started singing at the top of their lungs I was singing too. Love this song
After leaving her label/management - this is Chinchilla's Declaration of Independence, and it's an absolute banger 🔥🔥🔥 Been listening to this / Fingers / Cold Water more or less on loop for the last week. Thank you Ren for leading me by the hand to Chinchilla. Thank you Chinchilla for being fucking awesome in every possible way. Thank you both for lighting a musical fire under my arse these last few months. I'm genuinely excited about music again after decades of being jaded by the crap we're bombarded with.
Think Meatloaf said it best, u took the words right out of mouth. First heard Chinchilla on Rens Chalk Outlines beautiful song amazing voices but this song ..... seriously I'm 58 been playing this on repeat, amps at 11 and singing at the top of my lungs . Ren renewed my love of music and Chinchilla just added petrol to the flames
This song OMG. I’m 50, where has this vibe and fight been all my life!? I have chronic diseases this song helps me fight ! Just OMG this song ! I taste blood and dirt when I vibe it! ❤
As a survivor of DV, I do not advocate violence. Do not engage. Do not fight back. Run as far away as fast as you can. It does not get better. It gets worse. You, my dear, are empowering! I discovered you a few hours ago and am enchanted! Bravo! Well done, you!! (and them!!!) Oh, and I love that you put out your own lyric video to this song! People are going to want to sing this! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
@@abijoyc I sent the one who physically abused me to jail. I gave him one chance and bye. The narcissist is haunting me from his grave. We had 3 children during our 15 years together and we are still digging through the damage. My most satisfying punch was when I told him my happiest day at that point was when I woke up and realized he didn't know everything.. I stopped communication other than email. The next time I spoke to him I forgave him for all of the wrongs and thanked him for the good times, etc. He was on his deathbed. I cried tears when he died because I realized I got my last wish for him. He died a bitter and lonely old man. he left no will. We were long divorced. His oldest son, not mine, came in and cleaned out the estate. The ex also left a trail of misinformation that I can never defend. Emails I responded to but none of my responses. Wounds. Deep wounds. Punch away darlin'!
I’ve never ever seen comments like this. Every single one telling you of the impact this song has had on them. You have channeled the rage and power of the Goddess of the planet and of all women. Wow.
I lost my pride when i fell in love with the wrong one. That strong, proud and angry voice from this singer pulls me out of the dirt a whole lot. Her song makes me burn with anger on a good way .
Songs often have to be listened to a few times before thoroughly enjoying it, but this song hooked me immediately. Must've listened to it over a dozen times today already.
This definitely isn't anywhere near the type of music I'm usually in to but God damn this song goes hard. Seriously, good job on this one. Killer song.
I was walking out of a park behind a group of young men the other day. One of them dropped a plastic bag on the ground three metres from a bin. I said 'I think you dropped something' and walked up to them. The guy who dropped it reacted angrily and said 'Get out of my space - if you were a man I'd lamp you' and I said 'I'm just curious to know why you don't want to pick it up' and I picked it up. I went home the long way to make sure no one followed me. I felt so disheartened that violence is threatened so casually. This is small fry compared to the amount of loss and damage sustained by others - but it's from a common source. I can tap into a well of anger of all women through space and time who've been demeaned and belittled and degraded without recourse to even the score - and this video and song are such a powerful expression of that and such a needed response. It's a wonderful piece of art. I can't wait to see you live - and I'm a guitarist so if you ever want extra guitars let me know.
I cannot wait, your music is a whole other level and I was so glad to see your interview with Chris liepe, this song is amazing and I'm glad you're finally getting more recognition
I watched that...I was so impressed by her class...she strikes me as a really sweet, thoughtful human being...I'm a fifty year old, married father and I love this song!
Hello 👋 Amanda. How are you doing? Hope you are fine. I'm Zack Hudson and am from Denver Colorado. Where you are from? You seem like a real country girl
This is my anthem. I read so many comments and can relate to the abuse and narcissism. It hurt me but did not make me bitter, that is my strength. Your song is so beautiful, i can feel every word, tone, the anger, the healing and the letting go. Its a beautiful thing. Thank you.
@vartikagoel689 Hey, thank you so, so much for sharing your story and supporting my music… I’m planning something to say thank you properly but RU-vid doesn't have DMs... please could you DM me on Instagram with your RU-vid username? My Instagram account is chinchilla_music , it’s verified so you can be sure it's legittttt 😁🤍 Cx
So, I learned about this song through my mom. This song actually was my most listened to song on Spotify in 2023. This song got me through a really hard period of my life. A couple years ago I was SAed by an ex of mine. I was shown this song while I was in therapy treating my PTSD that I developed from him. It kind of made me realize that yeah. I am strong. I've changed so much. I've grown so much. I'm not the same person I was 2 years ago. He hasn't changed, but I have. I am so much stronger since getting treatment, and this song reminded me of that. I think my favourite part of this song is these lines: "I been at work and I got my badge of honour Honey, I've changed so much since I last saw you" Because it reminded me of how far I've come in my recovery. Anyways, thank you so much for this song. I still listen to it when I'm feeling weak and helpless to remind me that I'm not.
CHINCHILLA!!! Perfect timing!!! You don’t know how much I needed to see this today!!! You are such a BADASS and I’m feeling much stronger right now, thank you from the bottom of my heart. Every woman should see this, whether they’re going through something or not! I’ve been rocking this song since the minute you dropped it. Sister, you’re going straight to the top, ON YOUR OWN TERMS. I love you!!
Share this for all our sisters and brothers who experience abuse, for those that don't survive, and for those that do. Be it mental or physical or both. You can survive without them, press charges, and leave. For everyone who comes after you💪🏻❤✊🏻
The music and lyrics reach down into my guts and grab my soul so hard I cry when I sing along. So primal. As a woman who left a high-demand patriarchal cult-like religion where they did everything they could to control me, crush my spirit, and extinguish my power, I can’t thank you enough for this.
wish I had this song freshman year, when my comp teacher was telling me I'd never been an author and verbally abusing me in front of the class, even when I'd already written a book. how many books has she written? none. take that. I've got two under my belt now with five more planned
The band The Chicks (formerly known as something else) and their song Goodbye Earl was the first "Revenge on the Abuser" song I had ever heard. Since their song, I haven't really heard much until recently. In the last 2mths I have found a massive catalogue of "Revenge on the Abuser" as well as "Calling out abusive behaviour" music. Thank you for being apart of the strength to recover and fight back. This song is definitely one of the most powerful and empowering songs I have heard for this genre.
@Me Someone The Chicks. Fun Fact. The Chicks removed the "Dixie" bit due to the ties of the word. They have wanted it removed for many years, because of how the word "Dixie" has offensive and triggering implications towards many American POC. When the George Floyd incident occurred, they used that moment to finally drop it. If you want to miscorrect a person, Google before you make your ignorance public.
7 time rape survivor here. 2 were military coworkers. I survived all of them and i still rise with courage and strength. I love this song. I love the video even more. Thank you for your strength.
It's been a while and there's a million comments but just want to say as a woman in her 50's I've been there. I've been there and then some. You young women out there, don't accept any sh*t! Never accept less than you deserve. P.S. Chinchilla, you're awsome. Never change.
@@freem1 @jessikalynn4456 100% there's so much in Chinchilla's catalogue the all generations should hear - one in particular really struck a chord with me is Know No it is on her Awakening EP ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-2tsaxFhOci0.html "I could be naked in your bed and still entitled to decline!" whoa... Have a great day - so energised by Chinchilla & Ren right now!!
I listen to this song every time i feel less as a woman, i feel intimidated by men, i feel hopeless. Always helps me get everything together and keep fighting. Thank you❤️
Thankyou to Ren for introducing me to this whirlwind of phenomenal talent. All I can do is apologise for not finding you before chalk outlines. You seriously are amazing. Much love
I'm impressed with the amount of drive, vocal talent, and technical abilities Chinchilla has in order to write, sing, record, video and produce this song at such a young age. Creativity and work ethic often leads to success in any endeavor.
