embezzlement.




"On crack" is the new P.C. "retarded". But it brings me to the conclusion that you can't write songs about retarded people, because they are retarded. It just makes you look bad. But you sure as hell can write songs about people on crack.



etc.
I've got it, she was a crackie.

I'm tired of satire, it's kinda brutal because no one takes you seriously cuz they're scared. Bleh, I only attack nonsense I swear, apathy.

R.I.P.


Hairspray spokesman, profit, third string dead celeberty.







Lord was also known for being a very cultured man who loved reading poetry out loud on the set of his TV show and as being somewhat reclusive at his Honolulu home. However, he was dubbed "the Lord" (behind his back) by the cast and crew of Hawaii Five-O because of his imperious manner.

[EDIT]

I'm also noting a similarity between "Lady Madonna" and "Fever" by Nintendo, Mario and the Plumber Bros. Of course Mario, being the doctor, knows how to augment a few notes into a classic.

This also kind of sounds like, "What I got" by Sublime. No Andy Warhol but this archive of nonsense isn't worth nutin.

That's a really awesome observation, thanks.
Well If you want to get that technical listen to

The Eagles Hotel California 5:41 (solo lick) http://youtube.com/watch?v=hcwr1nbmWLI
Metallica Orion 6:43 (also solo lick) http://youtube.com/watch?v=aw_3Tqnmz5A
Almost too technically different but I can see where Metallica has a lot of inspiration.

Angel Witch Freeman 1:47 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QVLvz0be1j0
Metallica Nothing Else Matters 2:54 http://youtube.com/watch?v=JgiGrXpOhYg
It's not exact but the whole solo sounds very similar though and you can tell they were just borrowing from Angel Witch.

Sort of a standard guitar riff, but damn if it doesn't sound like Jet totally ripped off Iggy Pop's lust for life:

Lust for life:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wko_IweA6R0

Jet - Are you gonna be my girl
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DYbZNamJQ5g

I've been saying this for years! Iggy Pop shits ipods for Breakfast.

I feel the Jet song worked really well for Apple so Royal Caribbean took the original for their other bourgeoisie service/product. It's funny too, listen to their new generic version on the ad.

It's actually almost a direct copy from Led Zeppelin's Trampled Underfoot.

Finger Eleven even seems to have ended a show with covers of songs that used the riff before them: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-bNytaOfQPw

Smells like Teen Spirit is itself a ripoff of More than a Feeling, which Cobain was never shy about admitting. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U7ba2A3mtVU

No I believe in the video the band is making fun of the fact that more than a feeling sounds nothing like teen spirit.:colbert:
[edit] To continue, this song most ACTUALLY resembles the progression of a lot of Black Sabbath songs, leaving it neither intentional or in violation of any intellectual rights other than from inspiration.

I know, but why would Mustaine rewrite that other than come up with something new? Probably because he's too bitter to let it go.

Yeah that's right because St. Anger was a masterpiece.

[EDIT]

A couple more I should probably point out! (obvious)

Hitch Hike by the Rolling stones (just the intro)
There She Goes Again by the Velvet Underground.
Sorry these songs are too rare for links.

Day Tripper by The Beatles http://youtube.com/watch?v=V2UYRoti-tY
