Listen: Fiona Apple Crafts Scathing Anti-Trump Tune for Women's March
READ TIME: 2 MIN.
Moody vegan Fiona Apple has channeled her anger toward President-Elect Donald Trump into a minute-long protest chant, which is sure to be a big hit among the 250,000 marchers in Washington, D.C., on January 21, as well as the millions more in marches planned in all 50 states and 32 countries around the world.
Rolling Stone reports that Apple crafted the minute-long piece with composer Michael Walen. It features some piano, marching drums and the infamous sample of Trump bragging about groping women without their permission on Access Hollywood. But the main draw is Apple's chorus.
"We don't want your tiny hands, anywhere near our underpants," chants Apple, in a cry that is certain to be picked up among women across the nation.
"Tiny Hands" is Apple's second musical diatribe against Trump, following her "Christmas Song" parody, "Trump's Nuts Roasting on an Open Fire," which she released in December, and performed live at a Standing Rock benefit in L.A.
Billboard notes that Apple's song is the latest in a barrage of anti-Trump songs, including protest anthems from Anohni and CocoRosie and a series entitled "Our First 100 Days," featuring songs from The Mountain Goats, How to Dress Well, Mitski, Bully, PWR BTTM, Will Oldham, Minus the Bear, Toro Y Moi and others that feature songs supporting causes that could be threatened by a Trump administration.
Listen for the rallying cry at the January 21st march in D.C., and the 600 sister marches taking place across the world. Other female celebs participating in these marches include Cher, Scarlett Johansson, Katy Perry, and Amy Schumer.
