Anything MGB/MG can go in here. What are your favourite songs?

Advertising on Police Cars. I sent the song to my best friend yesterday afternoon and she was like "This song is really long. It's like 7 min.". I'm like "Who cares its pretty!"

I love Advertising. Everything about it is brilliant, especially the lyrics:

Hey Mr Chips,
How's the wife,
And are the kids still poison,
Do you still eat them.

Very chilling indeed, and the way the music escalates compliments it perfectly.

Interesting fact - the entire song was recorded on keyboards.

MGB rocks....

I was at the concert they played at Wonderland, and they burned a Scooby Doo doll. As the sacrificial stuffed animal. But because we were at Wonderland, and scooby doo is sort of a theme around the place, it was a bold move, and it made it even more hilarious.

MG's Book is very good as well, has anyone read it?

by **defying_gravity** » 5/19/2002, 1:28 pm

It's brilliant.

Apparitions, Under the Influence, Tripoli....

Yeah, I like MGB.

I really need to listen to AOB.

Also I've read MG's book and it's so great!

I'm a fan of Matthew Good Band. I have "Beautiful Midnight" and "Audio Of Being". I kind of stumbled upon the U.S. version of "Midnight" after remembering a Canadian friend of mine talking about them previously. I automatically fell in love with that CD the first time I heard it, and it was in my Top 5 for that year (it may have been #2). I have never really gotten into "Audio Of Being", but I think it's pretty good...

Did they ever release Audio of Being in the US. I have the other three cds but not the new one.
Favorite Songs:
Prime Time Deliverance/Inescapable Us (Sound awesome together)
Symbolistic White Walls
Original Gangsters
Apparitions
Hello Time Bomb
Boy and his Machine Gun
The End of the World as We Know It

I like Apparations.. it just doesn't strike me as amazing or anything..
My favorite songs that I've heard are: Tripoli, Advertising, Fall of Man, and Antipop. I haven't heard much though. I hope to buy Audio of Being.

What? Do you mean Look Happy It's The End Of The World? Or is there some MGB song utterly unknown to me?

Yes that is the one. My brain shuts down after 12am :lando:

I met Trevor and Bill from TC too :love:

and I also met MG and Rich but I missed half of TC'S set but thats ok b/c I've seen TC's so many times.... MG is really nice in person...

by **superrgirll** » 5/20/2002, 12:22 pm

I stayed to meet matt good, but realized that i was missing treble charger, so i decided to watch treble charger instead. Did you meet the guys from sloan too?

That song rocked live! I gave my first time to Matt Good! I could never forget that night, Matt, he was so sweet.....

Anyway, my favourite song, very favourite would be Running For Home, at first I didn't understand it, but then I found countless ways of interpreting it. Most of MG's songs have a really obscure meaning in it, unlike *cough*the new OLP*cough*.

by **defying_gravity** » 5/20/2002, 2:01 pm

I can play Running For Home on the piano. It's great.

by **areusad831** » 5/20/2002, 2:33 pm

I think Matt Good is the best lyricist there is in my opinion. His songs can be taken so many ways. Some of the songs are so obscure I cant even figure out the meanings
