How this insanely bad and silly band moves so many records I will never know. It's just another example of my not understanding how magnets work I guess. Well now, I'm depressed...
If I have to know what these guys sound like so do you.
I think I'm just gonna blame professional wrestling.
Okay before I start ripping this song, let me say that individually these two "artists" have done stuff I've really really liked, but these two together in one song? It's like a herpes bomb blew up in my ears.
I feel disgusting watching the video. These dudes are so greasy. Ke$ha most likely reeks of Jack Daniels from her purse. I'm also trying to figure out why the 3OH!3 dudes are YELLING this crap at my screen. Stop just stop.
I don't know what the sound they're going for here in this noisy collaboration but really all it's doing is making me nauseated and giving me a headache. Sorry guys. Individually I can handle your respective skankiness but when you combine them? No, it's too much sleeze and dumb for one song. Can't deal. Pass the ear plugs.
AND LEARN TO SPELL WITHOUT NUMBERS AND COMPUTER SYMBOLS, ALL OF YOU! GAHHHHHHHHHHHH.
I distinctly remember the first time I heard this band, I hated them. Shinedown was just another Nickelcrap clone. I used to get them and Seether mixed up. Actually I might still... they're both pretty awful. This is one of those bands I try to discount in meetings by my t-shirt theory... I.E. when was the last time you saw someone in a Shinedown shirt? Like I'll put up with Metallica and Megadeth because people are passionate about these bands. I don't think I've ever asked someone "So hey, what's your favorite band?" and had them answer "OMG I LOVE SHINEDOWN." Does anyone even know what these dudes look like?
Anyway I thought I had heard the worst these dudes could shit onto a platter until I heard this:
This is so not a rock song. This is like some Matchbox Twenty garbage. And it might not even sound like garbage if it was done by a Matchbox twenty, Sarah McLachlan, some Hot AC something or other because this is a pop ballad, not a rock song. Yet last summer this thing ear raped rock radio all summer long and I never once heard one person say they liked it. I mean there isn't anything to LIKE about it.
I realize that scholocky mediocrity is what most of 'Merica (eff yah!) likes but come on. This is just dog vomit.
"The Crow and the Butterfly"
I painted your room at midnight So I'd know yesterday was over I put all your books on the top shelf Even the one with the four leaf clover
Man, I'm getting older I took all your pictures off the wall And wrapped them in a newspaper blanket I haven't slept in what seems like a century And now I can barely breathe
Just like a crow chasing the butterfly Dandelions lost in the summer skies When you and I were getting high as outer space I never thought you'd slip away I guess I was just a little too late
Your words still serenade me Your lullabies won't let me sleep I've never heard such a haunting melody Oh, it's killing me You know I can barely breathe
Just like a crow chasing the butterfly Dandelions lost in the summer skies When you and I were getting high as outer space I never thought you'd slip away I guess I was just a little too late
Just like a crow chasing the butterfly Dandelions lost in the summer skies When you and I were getting high as outer space I never thought you'd slip away
Like a crow chasing the butterfly Dandelions lost in the summer skies When you and I were getting high as outer space I never thought you'd slip away I guess I was just a little too late
So awhile back this gorgeous package landed on my desk. I know I listened to it but can't remember what it sounds like because of the band's STUPID name. And the album's stupid title. "If Looks Could Kill."
Yes I'd certainly be dead by now from these Hall and Oates mustaches. No. Just no.
