Does anyone know any good songs about adolescents or bullying (besides the obvious olp ones) I need them for a school project and I'm too dumb to think of more than four..

plus it would be interesting to see what kind of songs like that are out there.

the msot obvivous would be Nirvana- SMELLS LIKE TEEN SPIRIT. some others I can think of. Beastie Boys "Fight For Your Right", Skid Row-"18 and Life"(this is the darker side though), POD-"Youth Of The Nation", The Offspring-"The Kids Aren't All Right", Twisted Sister-"We're Not Going To Take It", Rod Stewart-"Young Hearts",
if you want to go with ABUSE you can use Pat Benatar's -"Hell Is For Children' and Suzanne Vega's "LUKA"
Hope that helps. If I think of anymore I will let you know. It has been a long time since I was a teen.

NOWHERE KIDS( I think that is the title) by Smile Empty Soul.

Numb by Linkin Park,
I'm not entirely sure if that is what the song is about, i just know the video is, so I'm assuming so.
And uh..Hold On by GC? I don't know...

Gail, just to let ya know, it's "Adam's Song" You were like 99% of the way there too. The word song should be omitted from song titles anyway.

Untouchable by Dakona -> there are two versions, the neweer one from Perfect Change seems to me to be talking more specifically about abuse than the older one from Ordonary Heros which is a bit more cryptic(sp?).

Speaking of my language project. . . does anyone know where I can find a good but brief (like 40 words) Pear Jam bio?

in 40 words? that's crazy short.
There was a band. They named themselves "Pearl Jam". They had a cool song called "Jeremy". The End.
