Where is the love is a anti war anthem turned into pop with its catchy baseline and heart felt chorus its still well known i heard it first in the chart when it was first released when i was ten and at the time i remember thinking it was different to everything i knew it wasnt a song about love or heartbreak about naked women or expensive obects and lifestyles not even about gangstas but if you didnt like the song you would the video  it simply consists of a stylized question mark black background and a crudely drawn white box around a red question mark that askes the question why or where is the love ? the video follows them as they transfer the images on to walls and vehicles dressed in black and pursed by the police while they try to spread the message a good metaphore for  lack of freedom of speech and for repression .This is still one of my favorite songs and although the video is simple in its ways i think the message is clear and honest and you cant beat that .
