oh oh oh.....story of 100 aisles.
I am in love with it now, and I never really liked it before.
Don't know why though...I think it got stuck in my head one time and now I can't get enough of it.

Goodbye you liar,
Well you sipped from the cup but you don't own up to anything
Then you think you will inspire
Take apart your head
(and I wish I could inspire)
Take apart your demons, then you add it to the list.

I couldn't agree more. The ultimate one for me was Story of a 100 Aisles and All My Friends. Now they are my two favorite olp songs

I wasn't really a big fan of Are You Sad or Bring Back The SUn when I first heard them. Now I love both songs. Seeing them done live is what did it for me.
By the same token there were songs I liked/or could tolerate when I first heard them, but don't like them now. Everyone's a Junkie is the biggest one. I can't bare to hear that song anymore.

I feel love, I feel a power. It comes to me in the darkest hour. And I want to feel it again

Are You Sad - took me a while because when i heard it, i wasn't into slower songs
Bring back The Sun - didn't do too much for me until i saw it live
Car Crash - i've just started to realize the incredibleness of this song
Stealing Babies - It just didn't seem that great the first times i heard it
The Wonerful Future - it just seemed boring to me until a couple of months ago.

ok, i've been ignoring this thread not wanting to admit to myself i didn't like an olp song at one time... it's not that i didn't like the song, it's just that these songs just didn't do it for me at first...
hope (i dunno how i didn't like this song at first, i love it now... especially live)
dirty walls
shaking- bothered me at first
lying awake
consequences of laughing
middle of yesterday
sell my soul
bring back the sun (first time i heard this song, it just sounded out of tune, now i love it)
It's weird though, i listen to these songs over and over until they eventually become my favourites on the cd- i notice all the little things that i didn't notice at first that make the song so special

Thats one of the great things about OLP there is something new to discover all the time. I got into Supersatellite by trying to figure out what they were saying at the end.

Okay, I want to proudly say that I ..."found" The Wonderful Future.
Yay!
For so long when all these people here were talking about how great the song was I just didn't really get it. Then I was listening to is at random on the way home and I just found it amazing and I have love it ever since. What's weird is there isnt really a particular reason for me to like it now, and it didnt really grow on me. It was like I heard it for the first time or something.

Dirty Walls... i have no idea why i didn't like this song when i first heard it. I just didn't. Now I do.
Julia... What drew me back to this song? 2 words - Sarah Slean.
Story Of A Hundred Aisles... I just thought it sounded insane whenI first heard it. Then one day it got stuck in my head, and I played it over and over and over and over an over...
Middle Of Yesterday... I just hated the beginning. Actually, I hated the song. So I actually left SM for a while, then about 6 months later, I was in a car in the middle of a busy street, and the car next to me was blaring MOY, and I've loved it since then.
Sell My Soul... I first heard this, and I thought it was shit. Now I think it's actually pretty decent, and i've finally let friends play this in my presence, now. I don't know how to rephrase that so I don't look totally evil, but meh.

...and this is me hanging on / i'd burn our initials in the sun if it would shine / anxiety chokes me like razor wire / if hate's in your heart man, you'll take what you're given / wake up / i'm not the only one / it's never goodbye / go ahead and play dead / if everyone's a casualty, then take your time, there ain't no trouble / these wounds they will not heal / ambition can be a tricky thing / what the hell do i know about rape anyway? / this is not what i hoped for / ain't it so weird how it makes you a weapon / who will be there to tell me how stupid i am? / those living for death will die by their own hand / and it's me that I am spying on / pick up the pieces and live with the stars / hurry up and wait / things have never been so swell / they're always the ones who slowly drift / be great / ...and this is my world.

Hehe, no, I just looked at the driver and he looked at me, then we started laughing, and then we both sang along with the song. It was actually pretty awesome.
