Ila Reto Posted September 7, 2008 Share Posted September 7, 2008 ^ thanks for the tip, Shoot the Moon is the only album the store had- the others were discontinued. i'll keep my eyes open!and this isn't the best song, but i love this part when he sings On the Ave. live:"I had some friends, a psychotic coupleThey had a room in a residential hotelThey fought in the bedWhile we fucked on the floor" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hermione Posted September 7, 2008 Share Posted September 7, 2008 Yay my favourite thread is back In 'Westbound Sign', I like it when he sings,"Is tragedy 2000 miles away?"Totally a cool little reference to '2000 Light Years Away' right there. When he sings that line he even puts on the slightly odd voice he sang the older song in (check out how he says "away"). Westbound Sign is like a continuation of the story. I think the reference is really sweet, and it always makes me smile and this isn't the best song, but i love this part when he sings On the Ave. live:"I had some friends, a psychotic coupleThey had a room in a residential hotelThey fought in the bedWhile we fucked on the floor"I am obsessed with that song at the moment, love that part. Also,"We were a messBloody and half undressed" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J'net Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 From 'MPLS Song' - Broke and lonely, cold and hungry and though it may soundFunny, I'm doing alrightIt's another dreary night ... Well actually, I love the lyrics to whole song, it's hard picking just a few lines out XD.I love that whole song, too, and I always love to hear the first line when it shuffles around. When he sings "Iggy Pop is playin' downtown" he sounds SO forlorn.Yay my favourite thread is back In 'Westbound Sign', I like it when he sings,"Is tragedy 2000 miles away?"Totally a cool little reference to '2000 Light Years Away' right there.

Jaymee!! Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 Caution! Police Line! You'd better not cross!Is the cop or am I the one that's really dangerous?I don't know why I like it so much...I suppose it's the way his voice gets all rough when he sings 'one'.Good message too...something to think about.

J'net Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 " you can't go voicing something if its just not right.."Isn't it, "you can't go forcing something if it's just not right"? And I love this line, too!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jake smith Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 Nice one guys. This is also proving quite insightful for some lines i wasn't sure of the words for.How about..."Dickhead, F***face,c*** smoking, Motherf****, a**hole, dirty boy, waste of cemen, hope you die, waaaaa!!"Please excuse Billie Joe's language!ill agree with this one.

Hermione Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 Isn't it, "you can't go forcing something if it's just not right"? And I love this line, too!!!Great line. That song has several of my favourite lines in it, it's just a perfect song. Really interesting choices of words, and even a fabulous made up word "Well don't get lonely nowAnd dry your whining eyesI'm just roaming for the momentSleazing my back yard"and "I'm a loser and a user so I don't need no accuserTo try and slag me down because I know you're right" By the way I love your ava!

Nimrod99 Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 At the moment, I'm really liking the whole of Poprocks and Coke. I can't choose which parts to use, so I'll just go with this: "Wherever you go you know I'll be there. If you go far, you know I'll be there. I'll go anywhere, so I'll see you there." I like the way he says "Wherever" in the very beginning. For me, the song has a lot of importance on many different things. It especially reminds me of the bond that I have with my current horse, as well as the bond that I had with my old horse. I would do anything for those two.

The word sleazing and the phrase "slag me down" are just so evocative in this song.Thanks re the ava - a friend took this photo when I was dancing to John Lennon's "Birthday Song" recently. I didn't know he took it until he emailed it to me. I was really having such a great time and happy to have it captured (even though I normally hate having my photo taken).At the moment, I'm really liking the whole of Poprocks and Coke.

It especially reminds me of the bond that I have with my current horse, as well as the bond that I had with my old horse. I would do anything for those two.I love that song, too. I hear the first "wherever" as "Whe' e'r" and I love that pronunciation, too. And I love the line, "I'll go anywhere - just to see you there." I think the main thing I really like about this song is not so much the words, which are really simple, but the sound and the feeling of it - BJ puts the feeling into it with the way he sings it - and it always makes me feel kind of warm and sappy .

greendaytone Posted September 10, 2008 Author Share Posted September 10, 2008 Poprocks is such a heartfelt song, loved it when it came out with International Superhits and still do! Fits in with the Warning era, where i think Billie Joe was coming to terms with how important his marriage was.I love it when it builds up towards the end.... "if you should fall, you know i'll be there!"Bllie's voice is great in this song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
