10 years ago I was in my mom's womb spinning around listening to Out Of Here.

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 just can't believe we have serious OLP fans that are 10, 12 years old. I don't think I would have ever had a grasp on music at your age.

Not many people here are 10 or 12....they were 10 years ago though. Hence the point of the thread. Most people here are around 16-21 (from what I can gather) and then there are some older and younger people....we have a wide range of ages here. :D

I was listening to this kid songs thing. It definitely had at least one beatle song. All I remember was this song "harmony". I think it was by Eric Clapton?
Speaking of Kids Songs, Raine did one of those. He sings twinkle twinkle little star.

I was 16. Pretty obsessed with Pearl Jam and grunge in general. In my first year of A levels and probably ice skating every day.
Open your eyes to nights and days, you close them up and float away
and somehow inbetween you've got to master lying to yourself
you back the cause, get out of school, you get a job, the job gets you
and somehow every day you end up serving somebody else
now if that ain't panic that you're feeling, then you damn well better start
you can drive it into that head of yours with the hammer in your heart.


And it's alriiiiiiiight now, take the world and make it yours again.

I was *counts on fingers and toes* 9 ten years ago.

I dig vintage OLP, and new OLP. The new stuff is gonna be the shiznit.
"When looking up there, I just felt whole, like I belonged. Like one day I too would shine my most brilliant. Sitting there also made me think about sitting through services at my little country church back home. About that never-changing congregation of the same sixty-seven people and everyone has known you since before you were born. Now, out here in the real world, everything just seemed more vivid than when I used to sit in that little pew. That pew that was now so, so far away from where I was. I feared I had somehow left God behind there, too. I feared he was somehow just sitting there, saving my seat on the fifth pew from the front row, just waiting on me to come back. I left so quickly, I worried that he may not have noticed I was gone. And, now, I’m just too far away to find. So he’s just sitting there, patiently waiting on me to come back. I closed my eyes and prayed a moment. I hoped more than anything that he could still hear me." -an excerpt from my novella, A Sea of Fallen Leaves.

I was 6.. turning 7 in about a month. I don't remember hearing anything from Naveed on the radio. I only really knew them when Clumsy came out. I clearly remember hearing Superman's Dead, Automatic Flowers, 4am and Carnival on the radio (not Clumsy for some reason) and liking them.

The first four albums are incredible. Gravity wasn't so good but I'm looking forward to the new album very, very much.

first song I remember hearing on the radio was "Clumsy". Totally dug it. I remember signing it over and over in my head before I even knew who made it.

I loved Superman's Dead (still do). Automatic Flowers scared me, I have no idea why. :freak:

yeah, I was freaked out by superman's dead but I remember the video was played a lot and it was on the radio and what not. That is the first song by them I can remember hearing...everything from Naveed was new when I bought it. I know that I saw Automatic Flowers a couple of times....and a little bit of clumsy...no 4am though.

never heard 4am or automatic flower 'till I bought the CD. Soon became two of my fave songs ever.
