Disco de No Doubt: “Don't Speak”

This single is really awesome. It is not hard rock, but it certainly is not slow. I have loved this sound ever since I first heard it on the radio. I hope you enjoy it!

Few people transcend the bitterness and resentment of the break-up of a long-term, romantic relationship. Gwen Stefani and Tony Kanal, however, defied the norm: instead of endless bad-mouthing and wallowing after their split, they created one of the most beautiful and lyrical of rock songs.

They know each other so well that they don't need to explain or blame or dwell in "altogether mighty frightening" memories. Gwen and Tony assure each other that they know they're "good, real good...so please stop explaining...I know what you're saying." This song should be the blueprint on how to end a romantic relationship without hard feelings; mutual goodwill, compassion, and understanding ("I know what you're thinking; I don't need your reasons; don't tell me 'cause it hurts") displace the stereotypical "10 Things I Hate About You" break-up.

Even without this backstory, this song is stunning and evocative, and I love the guitar solo. Interesting video...my continuing thanks to YouTube for (free) access to great music.

for me if No Doubt had have broken up after this Song I could understand because they truly nailed a Song that was a Home-run.this Song has alot of feelings&depth to it.I like some of there songs but nothing quite hits me the same as this one.
