... and the death of Buddy Holly has zero to do with politics .But "American Pie" is one of the greatest songs ever written.![]()
We have found common ground ......Oh yeah, well I'm marinading a 1lb bottom round while listening to Tool. So there!![]()
I can't wait for CNS to EARN a spot on the video .
Because ...... well , here's 10 quick ones ......
I hate bands who choose to politicize themselves .
I hate bands who poke fun at our leaders .
I hate bands who hate their country .
I hate bands who make fun of our nation .
I hate the band .
I hated the band way before any of the above .
It's been played for way to long .
The lyrics are terrible .
The song doesn't translate well for being covered by a marching band .
The South doesn't share the lost values of dirty punk drug addicts .
.... make it 11 - It SUCKS .
No , make it 12 - Anyone who follows up the 9/11 attacks with the release of "American Idiot" - should be shot ._evil:
Anyway , I feel like my IQ lessens with every note that's played . :redface:

Wikipedia lists more varied interpretations for the verses, since it's not as if there's a single accepted meaning. That's the beauty of good art, I suppose.EDIT: This is considered as the definitive translation for "American Pie" - http://user.pa.net/~ejjeff/pie.html
Just saw their show over in Birmingham a few weeks ago. They didn't play anything from Undertow, sadly, but remained just as good as the last time I saw them.We have found common ground ......

I would like to hear Stevie Ray Vaughn's version of Voodoochile (the 1st part when the song starts), being played while the players slowly walk out of the tunnel, not jumping, or cheering or "locking arms" but kinda like a boxer that is coming to the ring to beat the crap out of his opponent. Focused and intimidating. What do you think?
I just want to hear Yea Alabama by the Million Dollar Band.
That whole "Enter Sandman" thing is VT's. Call me an elitist, but I don't enjoy copying others' ways of doing things, mostly because I think our way is better and always will be. Alabama deserves traditions all her own, not something watered down by the fact that someone else has routinely done it before us.
