"Wipe..." Title Official?

I think that, here at the CM, we have some of the most sardonic humor of any board.

*go us*

The lyrics to Wipe are good, but too simple. That is really the only thing i'm not wild about witht hat song. I love the chorus and the guitar work is nice, but the lyrics just are too simple. Hopefully, if that song is on the cd, the lyrics will be worked out a bit better.

Well, it has been a fair amount of time since we last heard it live, so I'm sure it's been improved upon. Assuming it's even going on the album, which would make a lot of sense if it's also the title of the album.

Dont ask why should be the title.

Hmmm. No. the title should be... "LIVE"

That would kick total ass, man.

I'm not sure, but was that supposed to be funny?

Anyways, why is everyone freting over something that isn't official? For all we know the title is "Hey you!"... let's just sit back, wait, and argue about the demise of the band when the name is official.

I dont mean to start up any big fuss with this post....but i know it will anyway because people's opinions get blown out of proportion on here.....so here goes.....

Although i like the title "Wipe....", I think they should call the new album "Not Afraid" because it signifies that they are not afraid to try something new or different or simple or complex, and not afraid of what people will think of it because it is their music, and the only people that "have to" like is themselves.....that's right....believe it or not, they, like most artists that have ever made music, made it because they had a passion for it and they liked it....the fact that others like it and pay them to make it is an added bonus, but it all started with passion...

"My opinion" of OLP's music is that i can listen to every cd straight through a million times in a row and not get sick of it, and i do not dislike any song.....I know some ppl only like certain OLP stuff and think some of it is inferior (ie gravity) and that is fine and you are all entitled to your opinion and i respect everyone's opinion...it just bothers me that people think that they make the music for you and if you dont like it then it is the end of the world.....they make it for themselves because they like it, and if we the fans like then thats great and if we dont....at least they like it....that is why i like them....the passion for the music really shows.....

sorry for the rant....although i did not intend for this, im sure many opinons will follow this post

Paul

Not Afraid=good title

I suggested a while ago to do "the winding road" ala not afraid, because they've been on a long journey in which they've taken all sorts of directions. A winding road also represents no sight of the end, and I can't see the end of OLP in the near future.

That is pretty good too

Hmm i'd like the title the winding road a lot.

The Winding Road isn't bad, but it's a bit too Beatles for me

I'm okay with pretty much any of the currently released song titles that I can think of (Walking in Circles, No Warning, Not Afraid) except Wipe..., Don't Ask Why (this I wouldn't mind too much), and Talk is Cheap.

So, um, half of the ones I can think of.

I like the title, but isn't the lyric "one-way road"?

ya, it is

. But a one-way road represents one forced direction which is not OLP. Plus it doesn't have that ring to it like "the winding road" does

and there's nothing wrong with the beatles.
