I'm American

Huh! I just got bitched out by a coworker the other day for going to Wal Mart at lunch and getting a few things. I got lectured bigger than shit about the trade deficit and how Wally World is slaving the Chinese. Now I feel like Queensryche just bitched me out for consuming. I mean, like consuming anything at all. I cannot help but get angry at times...
Nice!
BOTH of the songs I've heard from this release have exceeded my expectations! With that said, I cant wait for 4/7!!!! :Smokin:

Don't take it to heart. Remember it's a concept album, and therefore speaking from a fictional point of view. I'm sure there is just a sense of parody in the sentiment. In any case, America does have some pretty skewed ways/point of views. Just sayin'.....

I didn't download the video, it wanted me to sign in. I hate that shit. If it's free, just give it to me. I'll see it someday, somewhere.
Actually I'm American is the only song on the album I don't like. I am about 10 listens in on the whole album and I think it's better than Empire. It ain't no Mindcrime I, but it's definitely their best effort in a very long time.
I have no idea what you guys are talking about though. I haven't paid much attention to the lyrics yet.

Yeah, I couldn't remember my Yahoo login. I am sure it will hit You Tube or Google video soon anyways. Glad people are saying this one is promising though. I look forward to it.
I tried to download it on eMule, a file sharing thing. Turned out to be a porn video somebody had misleadingly named "Queensryche - I'm American (New video).mpg". Oh well, The Bang Bus was entertaining too.

Too funny, Trix! That's happened to me before too. The worst one I got was something like Whole Lotta Rosie and let me tell you...there was a WHOLE LOT of Rosie in that video. More than I wanted to see!

Hmm Rosie came with extra plumbing?
Jokes apart that's a risk of file sharing. I found it a lot in P2P systems, people mislabel sound files (on purpose or by unawareness) and you donwload something just to find it's definitively NOT what you've been looking for (not to mention viruses). Free is not always free

Tate has quoted his political views often in the past 5 years....based on what I've read from him, he does truly believe the lyrics he's singing in the Mindcrime records.

Extra PLUMPing would be a more accurate description. It was a fat fetish vid. Too much cottage cheese for me.Wyvern said:Hmm Rosie came with extra plumbing?

I don't know why it's asking for you to register? I didn't have to?!Trans-Siberian Outcast said:
I agree, it's not the best kick off track for the record. I wonder who suggested that track?! Still it is the best thing they've released(or will) since
the mid-90's...

Lar$ is a looser in a sense, what he had achieved a lot of money yes, also to lost most of the true fans, gaining the animosity of many and make Napster to close serving it as fertilizer for many more systems to go on sharing.
Some people still don't understand that by creating a martyr you just fueled the cause.

Sorry I post that joke now the joke's on me. Your description was graphical enough to feed my nightmares for a thousand years :zombie:

Sorry, Wyv, didn't mean to disturb your sleep for the rest of your life.Wyvern said:
You're right though, the whole Lars vs. Napster issue just fed the whole file-sharing community. Many weren't aware they could download songs for free on the internet until that lawsuit became headline news (that's when I first heard of it). Lars is not only greedy, but he's stupid for not recognizing the similarities to the whole Church vs. Metal lawsuits with Ozzy and Judas Priest back in the early 80s. All it did was garner more publicity, and album sales, to the accused.
