Tracy Chapman - Bang Bang Bang (Official Video) 

2024 anyone here 😊😊

LYRICS: What you go and do Go and give a boy a gun Now there ain't no place to run to Ain't no place to run When he holds it in his hand He feel Mighty He feel strong Now there ain't no place to run to Ain't no place to run One day he may come back Repay us for what we've done There where you Gonna run to Where you gonna run But one fine day All our problems will be solved 'Cause Bang Bang Bang We shoot him down Give him drugs and give him candy Anything Oh to make him think he's happy So he won't ever come for us He won't ever come But if he does And if there's no one else around Bang Bang Bang We shoot him down If he Preys only on his Neighbors Brothers, Sisters and Friends We'll consider it a favor We'll consider justice done But if he comes for you and me And we can place a gun in his hand Bang Bang Bang We Shoot him down What you go and do Go and give a boy a gun Now theree ain't no place to run to Ain't no place to run Now we'll all be at his mercy If he decides to hunt us down 'Cause there ain't no place to run to Ain't no place to run He wants the chances that you took from him Oh and nothing that you own Then they'll be no place to run to They'll be no place to run And if he finds himself to be A reflection of us all Bang Bang Bang He shoot us down Before you can raise your eyes to read The writing on the wall Bang Bang Bang He shoot you down Before you can Bridge the Gulf between And Embrace him in your arms Bang Bang Bang He shoot you down

From 2023 to 2030 ill keep coming to this place and adding a like to all comments here, Legend Tracy 🙌

Im a punk and metal guy but i gotta respect a true artist like her..mark my words..her music will be remembered in years to come.genius

No matter what song she sings..she has the ability to reach into my heart...I absolutley love her voice.. wish she would only sing more...

SHE SHOULD BE SEEN AS ONE OF THE GREATEST SINGERS OF ALL TIME

This beautiful strong woman was a gift to the people of this planet ..

She's been telling us what's really been going on in the 🌎 through her music for decades, she's the GOAT.

The most inspiring, humble, respectful, patient and singer of all time. God bless her heard her songs from 1988

Selfless human. A very rare gem! Tracy Chapman is a legend. Never seen an artist so unique as her. A legend✌️

Tracy Chapman is all about humanity, honesty, humility & compassion. All her songs speak of that. Can't find no singer like her today.

Tracy has always been acutely aware of the heartache of the world in which we live. Be it personal loss, Domestic Violence, gun laws gone mad or any manner of injustice, Tracy gets down to the nitty-gritty. This lady tells it as it is, yet somehow refrains from passing judgement. Tracy has a pure soul and quietly goes about her business of helping those less fortunate. When will people realise that the pen is indeed mightier than the sword or in this case, gun?

"He wants the chances that you took from him and nothing that you own." One of my favorite songs by her.

Why can't we get music like this anymore? It's truly aching the trash music we get these days.

With Everything going on in this world right now Tracy is just the voice that the world needs to hear

'And if he finds himself to be a reflection of us all, bang bang bang, he'll shoot us down'. Amazing music, amazing lyrics, amazing artist.

A underrated legend.

I too find these "Oh, it's a woman" remarks somewhat ludicrous. Tracy has always looked like a beautiful woman to me.

Who is till listening to this loving song in August 2020.

I can't believe I've never seen this video. Chapman is a star in music and lyrics. She is also a gorgeous woman with no makeup - or very little I can't see. I am so tired of seeing over made up women with freakish lashes and lips that are so exaggerated they scare me. And let's not mention the clown colored plastic talons. Really would love to see more of her. Fantastic !

Written about a decade ago and still true today. I love this woman's voice and messages in her music.

This song was put out years ago and speaks of everything that is taking place right now. She's an amazing talent and all of her music speaks of real life. POWERFUL MUSIC AND THE MESSAGES IN HER MUSIC IS EYE OPENING.

2024 is there ??

Tracey is always the artist for the times we are in. I love her music with my wholeheart. She is anti establishment and anti ignorance. In the end its clear that despite being a premier talent she will never get what she truly deserves. I like to think that she has already received everything she wanted and for her its enough. She will be forever in my heart! My soul rejoices whenever I hear her.

To miss out on Tracy Chapman's music, is to miss out on an amazing life experience.

"he wants the chances that you took from him, and nothing that you own" God damn... That is mercilessly beautiful

Tracy is just the best singer in the world in my eyes. Grown up all my life listening to her amazing voice. I love her so much. Its hard to explain how much her music means to me and my family x

i love how simple her music video is. so, we can concentrate on her message.

When the world need her the most she disappeared Tracy were are you we need you more than ever now

I can honestly say Tracy Chapman was the only artist I have heard that every song she wrote I loved, Tracy had that sort of feeling Brilliant

How can this video have only 1 million views and Justin Bieber's songs have 10 million views? this can't be right!

I wish we still had good music like this these days! Tracy if you ever see this, please know that you're loved! Your music touches my soul and inspires me differently.

I love her voice and her music very much and I won't stop loving her !!!!❣️💝❣️

Je suis français je comprends à peu près les chanson, mais sa musique est et restera éternelle dans les vibrations de mon corps, malgré mes 63 ans et je l’ai écouté à 18 ans environ !!!!! Bravo à Tracy et a RU-vid

When the world is bleeding from devastating effects of corona virus, we come here to seek solace

sometimes I get surprised when I listen to these songs and it still feels like it was released yesterday. I love her songs

Great artist and always will be. As relevant today as first recorded; the world over.

As a people we don't support out artist unless rap music now a days. But with all the police violence, in new York, Missouri, Florida,texas, this song should be a national athem, protesting black violence. But will it? No. Let our voices be heard thru song and peaceful protest. With Tracy capman song at the head of the protest.but will we do it? No, we will find everything in our power to avoid it why? I don't know why. But stop awhile in your anger, and your confusion, and say hey, this is not working, maybe this will work. Let's try anything what we were trying before didn't work, let's try something new. Nothing beats a failure ,but a try. Come on folks, lets give it a try at least.

She's amazing, does she still record music ? I'd love to see her in concert 😍 first listened to her in Texas back when I was in elementary school

1.1k dislikes ....bitter people everywhere

This woman sings about "real life" by somebodys that lived it..."All that you have is "Your Soul".

You can sense the sadness of emotion and heaviness in her soul...she's a rare jewel.

Absolutely love Tracy Chapman ❤

Has too be one of the most important songs ever written

Tracy Chapman was ahead of her time with this powerful message about guns and the effects of it!

Still love this music! Such a wonderful Artist as Tracy is hard to find nowadays. When I first heard this song I was in my early teens and fell in love with the voice and this woman.

I have loved her music since she started singing. She is beautiful inside and out and a wonderful story teller. Never disappoints me.

She's so beautiful. Her eyes are so gentle and her voice just soothes the soul. You talk that talk, Tracy!

So beautiful she reaches inside of us and touches something most artist will never do!

love this woman she's got so much depth and writes about such important and rarely spoken of things

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐😘👏👏⭐⭐⭐

A simplicidade do ser humano leva ao sussesso 😍😍😍👍

A voz mais linda que eu já ouvi...todas as noite durmo ao som de suas músicas !!!! Tracy...😘😘😘

This song reminds me of the saying "the child that is rejected by the village will burn it down to feel it's warmth." Wrong or Right the village is just as responsible for the actions of the child as he himself is. Can be applied to so many situations in life.

George Floyd RIP

Amazing lyrics. A reality of what many goes through. Life is not a platform to entertain others by which ones action by reason of the hell others put some one throught as a result of hate, discrimination and or racism; to observe reactions and erections. Shameful acts like that sometimes comes from our public officer's. That is not healthy for life.

there will literally never be another tracy chapman. LEGEND.

Love this lady. Taught me about history, love and oppression through her songs. Master class.

Song is so fitting for today’s society.

Tracy Chapman's songs reaches the mind and soul and they make me relax remember those days and my late husband who we used to listen together as a couple until we go to sleep

April 4, 2020: Corona pandemic: Florida's shutting down .... tho GUN SHOPS aren't. Because they've been deemed essential. Love Tracey's timeless peaceful messages, now anthems.

Absolutely love Tracy Chapman. If I ever go on Desert Island Disks, it’ll definitely be in my playlist.

"Bang Bang Bang" What you go and do You go and give the boy a gun Now there ain't place to run to Ain't no place to run to When he hold it in his hand He feel mighty he feel strong Now there ain't no place to run to Ain't no place to run One day he may come back Repay us for what we've done Then where you gonna run to Where you gonna run But one fine day All our problems will be solved Bang bang bang We'll shoot him down Give him drugs and give him candy Anything to make him think he's happy And he won't ever come for us He won't ever come But if he does And if there's no one else around Bang bang bang We'll shoot him down If he preys only on his neighbors Brothers sisters and friends We'll consider it a favor We'll consider justice done But if he comes for you or me And we can place a gun in his hand Bang bang bang We'll shoot him dead What you go and do You go and give the boy a gun Now there ain't no place to run to Ain't no place to run Now we'll all be at his mercy If he decides to hunt us down Cause there ain't no place to run to Ain't no place to run If he wants the chances that you took from him And nothing that you own Then there'll be no place to run to There'll be no place to run And if he finds himself to be A reflection of us all Bang bang bang He'll shoot us down Before you can raise your eyes to read The writing on the wall Bang bang bang He'll shoot you down Before you can bridge the gulf between And embrace him in your arms Bang bang bang He'll shoot you down

Amazing song, give him drugs and give him candy make him think he's happy

Tracy Chapman la plus grande chanteuse de tous les temps en plus de son immense talent elle est d une modestie et d une simplicité à susciter l admiration.

Sou Fã da Tracy, suas letras são lindas, suas músicas me trazem calma e paz. 🇧🇷🇧🇷🎶🎶❤❤🤩

Her confidence ,respect for her professions, singing from bottom of her heart, her message through songs and inspiring for life ,her voice and charismatic of her face is another level of magic

kinda sad that im just hearing this song in 2015. why cant music like this be mainstream nowadays? so much more meaningful!

Beautiful woman. Beautiful song.

not another artist on the planet like this woman for me, no singer hit quit like her 💯❤️

2021 and still feeling the same magic when I listen to this song.. Real Music never dies..

This song is the punch in the heart it needs to be - her courage and insight in writing these lyrics and performing them is what makes her the incredible, wise and unafraid artist she is.

Her insight and wisdom have always been true and deep, her voice is incredible. A true gift to this world.

My daddy there has been a change in the music corporation from performance to looks. Just look at how many people don't know the joke by Brandi carlile a very talented artist who got very little air play and people didn't know of her until she won an award on t.v. . Its the industry. Pink floyd speaks about it on "have a cigar".

my dad introduced me to her and i was hooked since i heard her.

Me myself and i,even in 2080 it will stil be played,Quality never goes out of style

This song and she's got her ticket are my all time favourite Tracey Chapman. I was introduced to Tracey's when I was around 4. I'm now 43 and still a fan.

You have just gained me as a supporter for your music...pure talent 🖤🖤

Prophetic song. Makes my heart hurt.

Ich glaube, Tracy hat mich mein Leben gelehrt... Großartige Frau!!! 💕

Super.music.Joan.Marion.Suzan.K.Ashley.Thanks.Talent music.Cheers.I love you very much my beloved husband Mark.My Angel.My heart.

This video deserves more views I'm not right ?

Love this song and pretty much every song she has done well Tracy should use her name really but she's amazing

What you go and do You go and give the boy a gun Now there ain't no place to run to Ain't no place to run When he hold it in his hand He feel mighty he feel strong Now there ain't no place to run to Ain't no place to run One day he may come back Repay us for what we've done Then where you gonna run to Where you gonna run But one fine day All our problems will be solved Bang bang bang We'll shoot him down Give him drugs and give him candy Anything to make him think he's happy And he won't ever come for us He won't ever come But if he does And if there's no one else around We'll shoot him down If he preys only on his neighbors Brothers sisters and friends We'll consider it a favor We'll consider justice done But if he comes for you or me And we can place a gun in his hand We'll shoot him dead What you go and do You go and give the boy a gun Now there ain't no place to run to Ain't no place to run Now we'll all be at his mercy If he decides to hunt us down Cause there ain't no place to run to Ain't no place to run If he wants the chances that you took from him And nothing that you own Then there'll be no place to run to There'll be no place to run And if he finds himself to be A reflection of us all He'll shoot us down Before you can raise your eyes to read The writing on the wall He'll shoot you down Before you can bridge the gulf between And embrace him in your arms He'll shoot you down

Whos here 2022

I have been listening to Tracy's music ever since I was a little boy. I adore her voice and the message that she conveys through her music. She is a real singer whom I find no match to compare with her. What a spectacular person she is.

Stuck on you I've got this feeling down deep in my soul that I just can't lose Guess I'm on my way Needed a friend And the way I feel now I guess I'll be with you 'til the end Guess I'm on my way Mighty glad you stayed I'm stuck on you Been a fool too long I guess it's time for me to come on home Guess I'm on my way So hard to see That a woman like you could wait around for a man like me Guess I'm on my way Mighty glad you stayed Oh, I'm leaving on that midnight train tomorrow And I know just where I'm going I've packed up my troubles and I've thrown them all away 'Cause this time little darling I'm coming home to stay I'm stuck on you I've got this feeling down deep in my soul that I just can't lose Guess I'm on my way Needed a friend And the way I feel now I guess I'll be with you 'til the end Guess I'm on my way I'm mighty glad you stayed I'm mighty glad you stayed
