The lyrics are... better than most of the lyrics cited in this thread. However, that video is atrocious as is the costuming. Also, "That was beautiful baby! OH yeah!" | ||

Oh, and he sings actual words. Not half/quater words really fast so no-one understands shit, but thats more london eh, i dunno what the official "term" was for it, but its like underground crap. 2pac is better/more meaningful than Eminem will ever be. That's not insulting Eminem (He's perfectly fine in his own right), but just straight truth. It's not a good idea to generalize an entire genre. As for my contribution, I give to you all the Ramones. They were intentionally dumb, so I guess I have to give them some credit, but just it just goes overboard to the point where you can tell they just didn't have any ideas. I still <3 them, though. Don't think that they're bad just because they're simple. They're intentionally dumb. "Eating Chicken vindaloo." | ||

Except this time, rather than hearing about mushy regret crap, we have lyrics about overhearing gossip about the cheater. The music video is pretty weird, but the song isn't hilariously awful like a bunch of others we've seen here. | ||

For instance, some academics who study too hard might be on the verge of being "too school for cool", if they donate all their time for good grades and no time for a social life. That's the whole point of the song, in fact. Raise your glass if you're wrong, in all the right ways. (The opposite group of people who care only about being social and don't care about doing well in class are, quite literally, "too cool for school".) It's funny watching some of these terrible videos that are just plain hilarious. But it's equally funny watching people complain about songs that they just don't get. lol. | ||

I heard the line and immediately discontinued listening to the song. I don't know if I was more embarrassed for his lack of talent compared to the other people on the track or just angry that people with such little talent can make it big... | ||

If you read the lyrics by themselves, it's as if they write each line seperate from the lines previously, and just focus on being balls out ridiculous. It's almost like: Line 1: "something to do with epic flames" Line 2: "hm, now let's do something epic about battle" Line 3: "now let's write something about epic lightning!" Seriously. Look up any dragonforce song. Exhibit A, Body Breakdown chorus: In my heart, in my soul, I am out of control Fly across the mountains and towards the distant sun Tears evermore we cry like before Feel the breakdown of my body - set me free Exhibit B, Operation Ground and Pound Far away will our eyes now see the day For today, the everlasting eternal sun Washed away the dreams of a brighter day Forever hold the dream inside the chance to fight another fight The breaking hearts that stand for all our lives Live tonight LOL, it's hard to take them seriously sometimes, but the guitar work is just too awesome to resist. That's actually just a Dragonforce thing because they're terrible. A lot of power metal is pretty bad-ass | ||

"New kids on the block had a bunch of hits Chinese food makes me sick And I think it's fly when girls stop by for the Summer, for the Summer" Those are the actual lyrics of "Summer girls" by LFO | ||

First line in this song: "transient jet lag ecto-mimed bison" The song makes sense you just need a stupidly large vocabulary to understand it. I sat down for like half an hour to analyze it. It's actually really good. On September 06 2011 10:07 Fishgle wrote: Anything by: Between the Buried and Me - If it doesn't sound good sung, then just scream it randomly Mars Volta - Pretentious beyond belief. The lyrics probably make sense, but not without spending 12 years in a thesaurus Red Hot Chili Peppers - They've said in interviews multiple times that they just throw anything that rhymes together. The Killers - same as RHCP i would bash pop artists or rappers, but their lyrics actually make sense, however mundane and repetitive they might be. Well you sir are just wrong. Btbam is pretty good. Mars Volta lyrics aren't even that hard to understand, you just have to have a knack for recognizing subtlety. When does the Killers throw rhymes together. Seriously, when. | ||

"Why you think you take a ho to a hotel? A ho tell everybody, even the mayor. Reach up in the sky for the hozone layer." For absolutely awful lyrics with no redeeming qualities, I'm pretty sure "Hate My Life" by Theory of a Deadman takes the cake. Everything about that song is vapid and asinine. He complains about hobos, traffic, and his wife wanting to buy things. On the scale of things that should make you hate your life, just about everything he mentions is pretty low. Then, he can't think of much to complain about in the first place, so he has to complain about his job twice. I mean, really. Hobos. He hates his life so much because hobos. Jesus Christ. | ||

The entire premise of the song is about someone who is too fucking stupid to understand what the fuck a timezone is and how it works. Goddamn it makes me angry just hearing it. | ||

I'm glad everyone is over it now because when it was popular no one I knew would hear a word against it. It wasn't catchy at all for being a pop song and sounded awful, which I might have overlooked if its lyrics had redeemed it at all. re: above post I think almost everything by Simple Plan qualifies. It took me a while to realize that they weren't an over-the-top parody of other bands but were actually serious. | ||

A lot of power metal is pretty bad-ass Dragonforce isn't terrible, they're just riding that power metal image like a Nazgul (haha!!). Of course the lyrics are terribly overdriven with pathos and everything else but with the fast-paced insanely well played music it makes an enjoyable mix  | ||
