DUBCC - Tha Connection > Outbound Connection

Sept. 11th, 2001 ERA ROCK APPRECIATION THREAD! 3 Doors Down, Staind, Nickelback

<< < (2/4) > >>

Sccit:
staind was dope

TraceOneInfinite:
Now coming in at #6 is Linkin Park "In The End"



The vocals on this song are so raw and painful.  It's like Kurt Cobain with a more polished hip-hop sound--and then this guy had that same thing that Pac had, River Pheonix had, Keith Ledger had, that tormented genius quality that had him end up dying at a very young age.  Spectacular song was a mega-hit in that era.  And it's again, also really wholesome compared to the music today.  They never espoused any Christian viewpoint, but it's possible.  The guy is singing pretty honorably about something a lot of guys go through--where they are actually the one staying true to love--and being being betrayed by it.

TraceOneInfinite:
Coming in at #7. is Lifehouse "Hanging by a Moment"



I remember I had a friend my freshman year of college when this song was blowing up on radio.  He told me the song is about God.   He said, listen to the lyrics, it says, "Starving for truth... the truth is God."  I said, "no man, what are you talking about, it's just your typical love song." 

...but the fact that that was even a conversation back then explains what era we were living in Pre-Sept. 11th.

the only thing I ever liked Jayz on was that album he did with Linkin Park
