i think sublime, if Bradley didn't die, would have exploded and changed the way music was then. and we'd be experiencing different bands now. i believe that. same with nirvana.
yo, brian. enough about nirvana. what horrible songwriting. seriously. i give dave grohl a lot of respect, though. sublime...their 40 oz album is still amazing...ball and chain...ebin...quality. (we stayed in this guy's pad once, it was where some dudes got hacked up back in 95..it was great, though...shout out to louie-dog)
yeah, man. 40oz to Freedom is an amazing record. i used to love this band so much. the lurid content is the only thing that stalls me from being a total sublime-freak. i like 'don't push' the best. and 'what happened': "she may be an angel, she might be a creep, she might be black, white, american indian or japanese!"
Have you heard Scarlet Begonias? Soooo amazing.
i love "Rivers of Babylon" and how you can follow along in your bible as they sing it.
"We sold some mushroom tea. we sold some extacy. we sold nitrous, opium, acid, heroin, and PCP. And now I hear the police comin' after me. Yes now I hear the police comin' after me. The one scarlet with the flowers in her hair, she's got the police comin' after me." naughty!
That's my favorite part because I always try to sing it with him and end up stuttering.
yeah, thats my favorite part too. i USED to stutter it. but after years of saying it out loud, like dashboard fans with dashboard songs, i know it well and i would hang myself if i stuttered it.
heee heee. playing 40 oz to freedom as pulling into the hall parking lot. didn't even remember. got a look and immediately turned it off.
whos ready for some new stuff to come out in music is anyone sick and tired of the same stuff flooding the radio? I no I am let me no what u think?
Oh man dan I think I am dumber from reading ur post. Bad songwiritng you gotta be crazy to say that and agree with brian. There would different if kurt and the sublime guy didnt die. Kurt deffently was a awesome song writer if u ever saw the mtv unplugged of nirvana u would know. But I guess back in 94 u where hung up on the new kids on the block still and manuto. The unique thing about kurt was that he was able to combine all of his influences in a unique way. Unique being a key word
i actually liked (but not loved)nirvana for a very long time. then we got stuck at barnes & nobles one day so i spent the time by reading his journals (there's this book and its letters he wrote, parts of his journals, thoughts, music he never finished) and gained such profound appreciation for him from that.
yea, that MTV unplugged cd is an awesome nirvana album..i was in 5th grade when he died..i remember we had a student teacher and he was the only one who knew who kurt cobain was..none of my friends did. haha
they put up pictures of him on the 5 year anniversary of his death in my sophomore year of high school. people wore all black and stuff it was kinda over the top.
yo you were still a sophmore then...wow...that's crazy. when he died i was in 8th grade. so then on the 5 year anniversary i was in college already. but now, i'm mature! guys mature faster than girls! GO METS!
okay calling yourself mature doesn't work babe
yea i remember... this kid , our star line backer.. who was like 6'5 320 lbs.. jumped off a roof.. because he was so upset about cobain.. and he wanted to die too.. but of course being as big as he was.. only put a dent into the concrete.
are you serious?
is he ever really serious? i feel that once a year we need to devote a day to complete and utter nonsense. like ty does each and every day. we can just post inlikely clusters of words and it's imperative each post be completely off the wall and either completely true or completely false. ian, whatayasay?!
