俄國龐克樂團Pussy Riot的Nadya Tolokonnikova和Masha Alyokhina發表了她們的第一首英文歌曲〈I Can't Breathe〉,Yeah Yeah Yeahs的吉他手Nick Zinner也有參與(但他是彈貝斯),歌名出自去年被紐約市警察誤殺的非裔煙販Eric Garner在斷氣前說的最後一句話,龐克先驅音樂人Richard Hell也在歌曲結尾念出Eric Garner的遺言。Pussy Riot表示這首歌是獻給所有國家暴力的受害者,不論是被殺害、扼死或受到警方暴力對待,也獻給政治犯以及在街上抗爭的人。
MV則是在俄羅斯拍攝的,並用一支菸蒂和一包棄置的俄國香菸諷刺俄國新興起的Russian Spring意識形態,Russian Spring是一些認同俄國近年來對鄰國強勢軍事行動的人對此種「反西方」意識形態的稱呼。
Pussy Riot's first song in English is dedicated to Eric Garner and the words he repeated eleven times before his death. This song is for Eric and for all those from Russia to America and around the globe who suffer from state terror - killed, choked, perished because of war and state sponsored violence of all kinds - for political prisoners and those on the streets fighting for change.
