Brian Holland…is a songwriting and composing genius and gentleman. He’s been thinking about all that has happened recently and Feels like the PLANET is saying “enough” – the world is dangling a big reset button in front of us to “STOP IN THE NAME OF LOVE”. STOP the contempt and confrontations going on. STOP the tribalism me vs you mentality. STOP the lack of compassion for others less fortunate. STOP polluting the air we breath and dirtying the water we drink. Instead he’s sharing … START listening to one another. START hearing one another. START finding common ground and things we can celebrate together and be grateful for together. Basically…Let’s not let the human race fall on its face.
PS: Come and Get These Memories: The Story of Holland-Dozier-Holland has just been released.
