I will not let my first impression on the song be laid on a crappy mp3.
London Ontario! Here I come!

Lucky bastard.
I like Matt's comment by the way.

I had the privilege of seeing MGB's final concert, and i was front row centre, before i saw them i was kinda a fan but not much but the concert turned them into my 2nd fave band... since they've dropped in my rankings but it's still good tunes

Matthew Good is amazing. In fact, Matthew Good Band is the only band that even comes in close to tickling my fancy as much as Our Lady Peace.
I think pretty much every Matt Good song is awesome, but my favorite at the moment is "Going all the Way."

I listened to AOB from start to end today.
It just gets better and better.

Matt Good have already passed OLP in my heart. You take OLP's best song (lyrically):
Goodnight, the future's sold out
there's no use screaming
Who thought we'd ever get this far
Tonight your faith has come down
To money and a TV
Psychics who've never been to Mars and
Nazi breast feeding....
And now you take one of the best Matt Good song:
You will come back within yourself
You can be art when we melt
And I will know what you were for
I say we're leaving
There ain't nothing here at all
Another day, a week the mall...
Suburbia is much more poetic.
And defying_gravity, I'm not use to your new avatar.

You know, Odin, I totally agree with you. But for some reason I have a really hard time admitting it, cause I love OLP so much also.
I've heard that Matt talks a lot of shit on OLP, anyone know anything about that?

It's only Chris Martin!
I've always thought that OLP's lyrics are not particularly "deep" to be perfectly honest. They just sound profound because of the complex rhythms.
And Orangesteamboat, don't start up the whole MG v. OLP debate again. We'll never hear the end of it from some narrow-minded people.

mg is a great lyricist but sometimes i wish he would break out of the self-depreciating "look at the shit we're in" style and write about something other then modern life drudgery.

That would be good.

more politics would be nice. i'd like to know where he stands.

once again, i will complain about living so far south of Canada, since you guys have the best music, well, you and california... but anyway... 
i had to search out all i could find on MGB after seeing "hello time bomb" on MM in like 99.... so finally i bought two CD's on the internet (Beautiful Midnight and Underdogs) and i absolutely loved them.... i put them close with OLP, his lyrics are most often deeper, but less applicable to fans... i see his points often, when he makes them clear, but i just cant listen to his songs and find a meaning in them for me, other than i hate the whole dumbing down of society, which he is very vocal about...
Audio of Being is good also, i recently got it... looking forward to his new band/solo stuff

They're probably more personal, for sure.

No OLP song can touch me like Suburbia, Strange Days and Boy with his Machine Gun, not even Blister or Is Anybody Home?.

*whistle* look at all the AoB fans... Don't forget Beautiful Midnight now, that album is just perfect.
Also, no one seems to have recommended Jenni's Song or any of Matt Good's older, History Teacher era songs. If you haven't heard any of this older stuff check out The Bombmaker, The Ocean, Dancing Invisible, Casual Walks and Coming out in Purple.
Something I've noticed about the song names... there's a whole freaking lot that begin with 'The'
The Bombmaker
The Fall of Man
The Fine Art of Falling Apart
The Future Is X-Rated
The Inescapable Us
The Last Poem's Poet
The Man from Harold Wood
The Ocean
The Rat who would be King
The War is Over
The Workers Sing a Song of Mass Production
Okay not that many, but still... I miss any?
