I hate how whenever I say something about OLP people are like, "Innocent is the best song EVER!"

I just roll my eyes and say, "Eh..."

Ha.. i know what you mean.

Whenever i bring up OLP, my friends tell me Clumsy was their only good album. :uh:

OK, going back to the off-topic idea of an OLP video game... any computer geeks here know how to make a game? Even if it's a crappy one... oh man, that'd be funny to play. :lol:

We'd have the aforementioned special moves for those three, and Steve's would (obviously) be death by Stevegasm. 8-)

I mentioned doing this a long time ago. I can't find the post though.

Matt Good and Ian Robinson are the evil sub-bosses!

Anyway, about OLP's music (imagine that

), around here, myself and my friends are pretty much the only people I know who have heard their music.

Even if you say to someone "I like Our Lady Peace", they'll say "Who's that?".

In reply, I'd have to say "the guys who sing 'Somewhere Out There'". And they'll go "Ohhh! Are they a new band?"

It really is kinda sickening, but in all honesty I kinda like it that OLP is my own little thing down here. The only thing that boggles me is that Nickleback is pretty big, but they have far worse music and, in my opinion, less catchy music.

why is the suggestion that they are a new band sickening?

I mean, yeah they are musically illiterate but if they have only recently begun to get into top 40 pop culture that shouldn't be surprising. Most bands have been around for a long time before they get a record deal, and many bands do not become sucuess's on their debut album.

You said Nickelback, how many CDs did they have before they came out with Silver Side Up and How you Remind Me? I know many people that thought they were a new band. They even got the best new band juno! Were they a new band? hall no. But still, the fact that people know them today is what matters. Or at least to them.

I believe that when it comes to get best new band at award shows it's based on whether they had ever been nominated at the same award show prior to that year.

I am not even going to ask what that is. When I read this I thought of the Jane Fonda/Milo O'shea film Barbarella. He has an orgasmatonic ray. Yeha I know-but what do you expect . It was one of those movies from the sixies that mixed sex and sci fi. the only reason I ever saw it is because that is where the band Duran Duran got their name from

i would consider "making it big" as in becoming a household name, being featured on american magazines and media, and going platinum. Nickelback's "The state" didn't make them huge in america in my opinion, but it did go gold, just as gravity did.

Josh!!! Make game! Now!!! :lol:
