And not to piss you off or anything, but I really do find Nelly's music to be pretty putrid.



nah no worries.....your opinion doesn't piss me off, its lack-luster comments that can relate to the genre that I simply wanna :roll: haha

but yeah, rap can get quite annoying.....such as Lil' Kim and 50's "Magic Stick"??? WTF is that all about...

Hey,

Brand New - The Quiet things..

Is one of the best videos I've seen in a long time...It actually made me appreciate the song more, whereas it seems that most other videos hurt the song more than anything.

As to why they censored "Let's start war, start a nuclear war" is beyond me.

I am shocked no one mentioned Junior Senior's - Move Your Feet.
I faced death. I went in with my arms swinging. But I heard my own breath and had to face that I'm still living. I'm still flesh. I hold on to awful feelings. I'm not dead... My chest still draws breath. I hold it. I'm buoyant. There's no end.
