this is an old list that I wrote in the thread about Blink 182 a few months ago ...since then I discovred maybe 30 new bands like The Bridgeheads,Staind,Brand New and a lot of old punk rock like Propagandhi,Fugazi,The Refused or Operation Ivy...I do not like it when people say that I don't listen to a lot of bands just because I like Still Waiting lyrics or something like that ...
If you asked me to write down the best lyrics I know ...what would I write??John Lennon-Working Class Hero | John Denver - Country roads or Casey's Last Ride ...or billions of other songs...but still I feel something when I hear this ''Would you be the savior of the broken,the beaten and the damned'' ...
and still I hear more pop sound on the new album then on TBP :) like the beginning of the song The only hope or Sing ...I do not like it and I do not want to change it ...maybe it's not the pop music that I cannot stand ...I hate it when I hear voice fucked up with computer and I hear it on the newest album by MCR ...The Beatles was a pop band too but their lyrics mean something to me and their music is awesome...there is pop that I love but there is also pop that I do not like ....I don't like pop like Lady Gaga because I hate the sound ...and the new MCR album reminds me of that sound sometimes ...
still the same thing ...you like it I dont ...there is nothing to talk about ...
the last thing I wanna say is the thing about depressive songs as you like to call them...you also called those songs emo ...but Nirvana was not optimistic at all but noone will call them emo...at least I believe so...
