Yay Luke! That way, you can only ruin 1 night of your life and knock two shitty bands off the list together!

Man, Counting Crows are awesome. Adam Duritz is my nigga.

WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
too pretentious for me. "Around Here" my ass. What's he so fucking sad about? Only thing I'll give him props for is "Accidentally in Love" since he wrote (maybe) it about Shrek and his girlfriend. That's kinda cool.
-
counting crows are incredible dude...one of my favorite bands of all time. i always respected your taste in music because you know your shit from back in like the 50's and 60's up until today...but you just lost brownie points my friend...you would've been the first person i thought would've said "damn that would be an incredible show"
-
Nah man, I can't do it. I don't like the vibe I catch from their music dude takes himself too seriously. Same exact problem with the Goo Goo Dolls, I loved "Name" when it came out, but then they basically made that same song 100 more times, got old for me.
That's just me though, different strokes
-
what do you mean you don't like the vibe you get from the counting crows (i love the goo goo dolls but i will give you that most of their songs sound very similar to each other)....
-
Lemme find some lyrics, I'll show you what disgusts me, lol.
Maryann you're better than the world
They took a lot of time getting it right on this girl
I said Maryann you're better than the world
They did a lot of things right on this girl
I had a lot of girlfriends
I should have known them
Click your heels and count back from three
Do you want to go back
You should have known that
The butterfly in reverse here is me
Maryann you're better than the world
They took a lot of time getting it right on this girl
I said Maryann you're better than the world
They did a lot of things right on this girl
Where'd you want to go to
with nothing beside you
But webbing and curfews and rain
And everything that hurts you
Gets stuffed up inside you
Like butterflies with wings
or other perfect things
We go swimming in the sunshine
Dangling from clotheslines
Seperate and fall into me
And did you ever see me
Me absolutely
Me but all you but still me
Maryann you're better than the world
They took a lot of time getting it right on this girl
I said Maryann you're better than the world
They did a lot of things right on this girl did alot of things right on this [2X]
did alot of things right on this girl
that's called "Butterfly In Reverse". What the fuck? It just strikes me as whiny and attempting to sound sensitive, it's boring and common, to me at least. Again, though, this is just my opinion. Kind of pussy music.
Now, here's, for instance, a Brian Wilson track about the same thing.
"Caroline No"
Where did your long hair go?
Where is the girl I used to know?
How could you lose that happy glow?
Oh Caroline, No.....
Who took that look away?
I remember how you used to say
You'd never change, but that's not true.
Oh, Caroline, you
Break My Heart
I wanna go and cry
It's so sad to watch such a sweet thing die
Oh Caroline, why?
Could I ever find in you again
Things that made me love you so much then?
Could we ever bring 'em back once they have gone?
Oh Caroline, No...
Just infinitely more interesting to me. I don't like Duritz's half asleep delivery either. "Accidentally In Love" is good, though, and Mr. Jones was good the first 1000 times.
-
his voice and delivery is my favorite thing about them...that track is definitely not one of their best...here's a better song...the lyrics are great here:
Angels of the Silences
Well I guess you left me with some feathers in my hand
Did it make it any easier to leave me where I stand?
I guess there might not be too many who would stand beside you now
Where'd you come from?
Where am I going?
Why'd you leave me 'til I'm only good for...
Waiting for you
All my sins...
I said that I would pay for them if I could come back to you
All my innocence is wasted on the dead and dreaming
Every night these silhouettes appear above my head
Little angels of the silences that climb into my bed and whisper
Every time I fall asleep
Every time I dream
"Did you come?
Would you lie?
Why'd you leave us 'til we're only good for...
Waiting for you"
All my sins...
I said that I would pay for them if I could come back to you
All my innocence is wasted on the dead and dreaming
I dream of Michelangelo when I'm lying in my bed
Little angels hang above my head and read me like an open book
Suck my blood, break my nerve offer me their arms
Well, I will not be an enemy of anything
I'll only stand here
Waiting for you
All my sins...
I said that I would pay for them if I could come back to you
All my innocence is wasted on the dead and dreaming
-
fuck both bands
-
Love Counting Crows - it would be great to see them live.
-
