And yeah, his exact words were "it's a stinker!"
no you aren't NIkki. I do not like the OMA video. I don't even like the song. Now I am the only OLP fan to say that. Hates song and video..
as For A/LS..I just love this song done live. I always think it is a keyboard , but it iis actually Steve on guitar. the part right before he goes "Looks like the holy ghost is gone. looks like the war was in y our head( or whatever th eline is) "



actually the only song on this new cd I had vid idea for was WOAS> i totally see it done in an amusemnt park or somethng. These two youngs kids( late teens) just enjoying their lives and each other while their whole world around them is falling apart. then you can show wars, devastatin and things of that nature. cause that is what I get from ths song. That someone makes you realize isn't as bad as it seems, and we can change it.
I also agree with Nikki on thief. It was a symbolic video to capture the mood of the song. I think if you ever had someone you love terminally ill or you yourself been ill this osng effects you.. It is never easy watching someone you love deteroiate before your eyes. I sometimes can't hear this song cause I have lost 4 people close to me to terminal illness( my parent, My grandma and my uncle) so it is hard for me to hear it. I do love the video
My fave OLP vidoe is Birdman cause I love seeing Raine freak out in the end where he is practically swinging from the microphone. I also love Hope, In Repair, IAH., Thief and SD with the kid. the other version with the carnival people is too freaky for me.
least faves. OMA fn SOT. Goe I really don't liek those vids
I feel love, I feel a power. It comes to me in the darkest hour. And I want to feel it again

the video for thief is one of two videos that makes me cry every time i see it. the other one is everybody hurts, by rem.
and OMA makes me feel happy, and powerful for some reason.
back on topic, yay for angels losing sleep!...uh..i haven't even read the last few pages of this thread, but that seems to be about right...yay!

Hope wrote:but.. how can you not like OMA, the song?
wow, the first person i've met who doesn't like oma... insane. i don't know, if i had to guess which olp song EVERY olp fan would love, or at least admire, it would be oma for sure. i for one am crazy about it. i have my headphones over my ears listening to it before school at least once a week. it does give you that powerful feeling, and that's awesome when you feel half-dead and filled with impending doom too early in the morning on a monday.
nikki4982 wrote::GASP: It's out? Or you think they just started playing it early?
and..what the crap?

i'm guessing that the fox just started playing it early. they have a knack for doing so.

...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.

I don't hate OMA, but it's never been one of my favourites - it's one of the ones I could honestly take or leave live.
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.

what can I say I have to be different.
then again I bet there are people who don;t like my fave OLP song/../

speaking of OLP songs that people could do without with... i never saw what was so special about Blister. it's good, but i never had a crazy phase for the song (i've had one for just about every one).
