Thelma Plum - Better In Blak (Official Music Video) 

It's not fair that artist like Thelma don't get more commercial success. Thelma you look amazing in blak

Properly bawling me eyes out to this. Deadly women, deadly song.

This song as an Indigenous woman gives me strength... Thelma Plum has a voice That needs to be recognised Powerful. Thank you Thelma.

Love this song. Australian music needs more of this kind of representation tbh 🙏🙏

i really like this one ... brilliant voice, just paid for 4 of her tracks... i normally just stream off youtube, but a brilliant artist like this deserves financial encouragement.. :D

First time I encountered Thelma was last week, opening for Troye Sivan in Sydney. Blown away! Amazing vocals and such profound lyrics in her music

From the bottom of my heart I thank you for these words having my identity stolen from me as a baby I feel this song very deeply ❤️❤️❤️ They took the colour from me but I look better in Black 🦎

I just came here because the full album just dropped at midnight here in the U.S. Great job, Thelma! The entire thing is intricate and very well written. Excellent album that I’m going to be listening to over and over again!

Thelma’s voice.....like this song is something for the ages.

Lyrically I feel this song on such an emotional level, masterpiece. I can’t believe I can only hear this song on JJJ WTF!? Artists like this should be recognised and celebrated.

I interviewed Thelma quite some years ago when I worked as full time Broadcaster for Koori Radio & Thelma was a young teenager & I thought she was great then & wow has she grown into an amazing phenomenal vocalist/songwriter.

Entire album is solid. Her voice is so amazing. I’m so glad she took her time to put together such well structured album with so much raw emotion. THANKS THELMA!!!!!!!

nice voice, nice presence.

This is amazing, I just did a school assignment on you in music and now im a fan of you. You’re so powerful I love you

Do you know what it feels like? To get calls in the middle of the night? Saying you're not worth it, you deserve it Go on, have another drink Do you know what it feels like? To get stuck in the middle of a fight? Screaming you're not worth it, you deserve it Go on, have another drink But if I just keep quiet I'll be the one who's lying too Why should I keep hiding, always crying? Tell me what did I do? You took the colour from me, darling, I'll get it back You took the colour from me, but I look better in black If I knew what I know now, maybe I would take it back But fuck that, I look better in black Do you know what it feels like? To be told that you are never right? If I had a lighter skin maybe I would win Does it make you want to think? Do you know what it feels like? 'Cause I know what it feels like! If I had a lighter skin maybe I would win Does it make you want to think? But if I just keep quiet I'll be the one whose lying too Why should I keep hiding, always crying? Tell me what did I do? You took the colour from me, darling, I'll get it back I'll get it back, I'll get it back, I'll get it back, I'll get it back You took the colour from me, but I look better in black If I knew what I know now, maybe I would take it back But fuck that, I look better in black Hey! I look better in black Hey! I look better in black If I knew what I know now, maybe I would take it back But fuck that (fuck that!) I look better in black

This icon thelma plum has stolen my heart, don’t stop now gorgeous girl! 🖤💛❤️

Such a beautiful song, such a powerful statement, she will inspire others

here from the triple j hottest 100! this song deserves so much more

Thank you Thelma I absolutely love this song and I love the meaning too. Be who you are and be proud of who you are.

How talented is this beautiful woman her music is phenomenal

This needs more love !!! Absolutely love her songs !!!❤

i love this song, its so catchy. I like seeing my aunties! From your nephew Ngaarrgii!

Amazing song. Your voice is stunning! I heard it yesterday on the radio here in germany and can't stop pressing the repeat button...

Gorgeous!!!! So down to earth 🌏 colour scheme is great.

Magnificent songwriting xox

I’ve had this album pumping through the speakers to the backyard as I repatriate by garden. Perfect spring listening. Deadly!

Tears and goose bumps! Bless you Thelma

Thanks to 666 and radio Canberra for playing Thelma during Naidoc week in the last couple of days. You absolutely rock and no wonder everyone voted for you as the best. Because you simply are. Not just because your a great singer, but because you are a fantastic spokesperson for indigenous Australians and all people whom others think that they should behave or act differently just because of their heritage. Huge respect.

Your voice is so sweet, yet powerful. Archie would be grooving on his cloud, little lady.♥️♥️

Thelma you are incredible ❤️

Love her confident smile at the end of the clip I'm very glad to see indigenous people having their voice heard in general and especially through means like this that can really help with pure exposure, if enough people are willing to engage with her message that is which sadly many Australians still are not, but it can only help. Why do they call it RE-conciliation when relations were never good in the first place? (Not to disrespect movements that have done good for the indigenous people but the wording is not accurate to the history by the normal definition) When will we offer an 'apology' that actually warrants some bonding and strengthening of ties and relations (aka, actual action, actual polices, an actual movement, the chance for indigenous people to forge their own path forwards with agency). When will we acknowledge that the department of child services is the modernized rebranding of the stolen generations (less explicit sure, but we all know proportionally indigenous families suffer far more than other groups in these regards).

LOVE this song!! x

This is perfect pop song and so much more! It should Australia's new anthem! I have it on repeat! Thanks Thelma!

You are amazing. Super proud of you contributing to the Australian music scene. An inspiration to my daughter. Thelma, keep doing what you do! xx

This Lady is a Diva and a Goddess. 😎😚

Agree with Ally. This is the perfect song. It’s my ear worm. Should have been number 1 in the hot 100. As a 63 yr old who has been with the Js since the beginning this is my No. 1

This song😭😭😭 Thelma you are beautiful and this song is absolutely Boss Queen ❤️🔥

See you at the Coldplays concert 2023 ❤

This tune has been playing on the jukebox in my head for weeks, but seeing the clip for the first time took it to a totally different level. Just blown away.

I think EVERYONE looks better in their skin cause that's how YOU are. 😃 Empathy, character, and humanitarian values are what our species presently needs. Group work and cooperation got us here, so let us continue.

She's really pretty lovely voice too.

Great song and message

Great song. Great lyrics. Very inspiring, even as a middle aged white male. Good on you.

Thel just gets better with each new song and video!! Love it!!

This is one of my favourite songs now. I adore it and the message that comes with it

I have listened to about 6 of your songs now. I have yet to be disappointed. Take my subscription, take my likes, well done. Correction: EXTREMELY well done. 🖤💛❤

Hair looks great. Your soul is greater..thanks for your art😊

I heard this song on insta and fell in love with it ❤️

Can I just add to that ? . . . And an expression of the ability, to transform an un-positive into a positive . . The transformation of lead into gold. The Power Of Alchemy, raising ones vibration rather than de-evolve. You rock Thelma ! : ))

Just discovered this today after listening to the album. Thank you. You are amazing!!! Definitely a new fan.

You are a legend Thelma, keep making wicked tunes!

Marvelous and super lovely ❤❤❤

I hope you are recovering well. We need your sweet voice!

Amazing sounds beautiful!!!

I want to simultaneously dance and cry to this song. 😂😭

This just came on in my car (had it on repeat for a bit too hehe) and i was instantly transported back to when it was released. Such a gem of a song even if it's based on humans being shitty to each other. Thank you again

i just can't stop listening to it ! love it!

This song is coming out of a study I saw about pop music straight to my heart

It’s good when nice songs come to you, thanks! ❤

Love this and am eagerly awaiting more good music
