    "comment": "\"I'm talking to you, so come on\nShout, shout, let it all out...\"\n\nRoland Orzabal said,\n\"A lot of people think that ‘Shout’ is just another song about primal scream theory, continuing the themes of the first album. It is actually more concerned with political protest. It came out in 1984 when a lot of people were still worried about the aftermath of the Cold War and it was basically an encouragement to protest.\"",
