Hard To Explain

Was an honest man
Asked me for the phone
Tried to take control
Oh I don't see it that way
I don't see it that way

We shared some ideas
All obsessed with fame
Says we're all the same

Dude, the guy's 80. Despite his past drug addiction and drinking problem, he's still lived longer than my grandparents.

But, then again, he's been in a coma... hell, music is what is keeping him alive. "Gotta keep moving; like a shark. I'll die if I stop."

He's working on a gospel album with a ...

Realize that every country has its own interests here; Russia, France, Germany, between oil agreements with Iraq and a good-sized Muslim populations, are against this war for that reason. The politicians know that they'll lose favor and end up losing power if they do this, not to mention the cheaper ...

I'm still waiting for the Rolling Stone review. It's not up on their site yet... which is odd... because they've already reviewed Elephant , and that's not out until next Tuesday. But, then again, Linkin Park's spent some dough on making sure the record wasn't leaked, which probably included holding ...

Eminem may be a dick, but so is Matt Good.

Don't raise a double standard. Eminem's one of the most talented guys in rap, and probably the fourth most talented white rapper of all time (behind the Beasties, of course). Em's also becoming one of the people ...

Of course, who else could be an expert at Chili Rock...?

People have said I look like Rivers Cuomo.

Other people have said I look like Bruce Springsteen.

And if anyone can figure out how I can get "you look likes" for THOSE TWO, instead of one of them and then someone who actually looks like them, I'll give you a big sloppy kiss.

People enjoy labelling themselves these days. It's like saying your ethnicity before "American" or "Canadian". "Oh, I'm Italian-Canadian".

Does it matter? I'm American AND Canadian, I say. Because, well... half my family's from Canada, the other half's lived in America (or on American bases) for ...

It seems kind of... well, controlling, to try to change someone's music tastes. And it's judgmental to call rap/hip-hop "Bad Music".

But, I digress. If you really want him to be switched over to punk/emo, use these songs:

Human nature creates a heirarchy, just like any other animal. Some are meant to rule over others; there's always a leader in a pride of lions, a gaggle of geese; they've been put in that position by the rest of their group.

There is a reason why we elect officials in this country. We want someone ...
