Hi;
I don’t have a band nor do I play or sing. Maybe can’t write either but have a read anyway if you will.

I’m Just a Loving Fool

Who knows what happens when love falls apart
And who was that man who called love an art
Well art can’t be mastered except by the fool
And so I’m getting plastered on this here bar stool
Drowning my sorrows
Afraid of tomorrows
I’m just a loving fool
I played at love like I’d mastered the art
Never caring bout breaking a heart
Now there’s no escaping this drowning pool
So I’m getting bombed on this here bar stool
Drowning my sorrows
Dreading tomorrows
I’m just a loving fool
Now you’d better be smart better be cool
Or you’ll be beside me on this here bar stool
Drowning your sorrows
Dreading tomorrows
I’m just a loving fool

Well that’s it. Thank you for your time and comments

We’d just like to point out that we’re friends with Clipse (on myspace) and they’re pretty pissed about you calling The Smiths gay.

mock orange aren’t a “new band” and actually have been around much longer than the decemberists.
*decemberists “Castaways and Cutouts” 05/21/2002
*mock orange “Nines and Sixes” Sept 1998

but at least you do your homework before trashing bands (sarcasm).

sometimes constructive criticism hurts more. if i had said, “kindly give up on music and get a real job. your banal melodies, lyrical themes and instrumentation simply will not enable you to make a career in the music industry” it would not be nearly as entertaining as saying, “your band sounds like a sunshine-y Gap advertisement being gagged and tortured by an electroclash-loving serial rapist.” plus, it would take longer to pick out the nuances of individual songs, and i’d rather spend my time doing things that aren’t as soul-shattering as listening to bad music.

I’m sure Mega Brekfast has an audience. It’s just that…I don’t ever want to be friends with any of those people because they have what I like to call “bad taste”.

Mega Breakfast is a wonderful album and The Chap are greatly underrated. Perhaps that means I don’t get it and I’m not one of the good guys. But you’re just an idiot…
