1st post/thoughts of olp

Post by theirflowers11 »

hiyas all. my first post here. i love this forum and find everyone here to have very fascinating opinions and thoughts on our lady peace. they are one of my favorites. i love how the band is unique on all of their albums. i know there is a lot of talk about gravity, but in my personal opinion i think the songs live up to our lady peace potential live. the new songs are great as well. i cant to see them in Ft. Wanye this summer. anyone else goin? well, sorry to take up your time with this. by the way, what new song do you guys like the best. our time is fading, not afraid, or talk is cheap? peace out, kyle

Welcome to the board!

That's a good little test for newbies. If they answer something like "all ten of off gravity becuse i dont liek the other albums very muchly", then we know they're just getting into OLP and will probably leave the board in about a week.

However, a top ten like that (^^^) is the sign of a well-seasoned fan. :mrgreen:

I like OTiF the best so far. However I will need studio versions before I can make a solid decision, especially for Talk Is Cheap as the quality isn't the greatest...don't get me wrong, I'm very greatful to those of you who got it up on the CM and it sounds like a good song, but I can't understand all the lyrics and the guitar sounds pretty indistinguisable(sp?) in some places.

Brutus is an honorable man
It's just coincidence that oil men will wage war in an oil rich land
And this one goes out to my man taking cover in the trenches with a gun in his hand
Then gets home and no one flinches when he can't feed his fam...

But Brutus is an honorable man...
