Y'know, metal does the same thing to me. If I don't want to think about romantic stuff, a girl, happy things, or generally anything that makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside, i just crank up the music and it all goes away. That is NOT the reason WHY i listen to metal, i enjoy, it sounds good to me, but that's just something it does for me. Maybe i'm too busy "rockin' out" to think about that shit. But a good song can always give you some feeling, like shock, awe, chills, old memories,what have you, as well, but music can shut out feelings that weren't caused by the music. I'm just rambling at this point, I hope i didn't confuse you, because I sure confused myself...The saYer said:

~) though I prefer presentation as opposed to the lyrics themselves. That's not to say there aren't a handful of songs and or bands that I really get into as far as lyrics, but I think a vocalist that can express emotion is more important than the actual words coming out of his/her mouth.

I love vocalists (as well as guitarists, drummers, bassists and some keyboardists >

Yep, though I can't relate specifically with that band, an emotic vocalist is really more important in my ears as one that is technically profecient, though the combination of both is unstoppable like in early Geoff Tate (Queensryche.) Of all the fans of different genres of metal, I would be surprised to find many people that didn't think "Operation Mindcrime" kicked ass. I am a guitarist and love guitar, but Geoff is what stole the show on that release.Roy said:
When I was a younger man I used to like having sex to Yngwie (not with Yngwie mind you >EVERLOSTINDEADETERNITY said:

Mine still works great but the back isn't what it used to be. I need to invent some Backagra and I will dust off "Rising Force" more often. >~
Ha ha, I made up an alternative lyric version of that for a girl I knew. She wasn't too happy but my mates loved itWyvern said:Also some years ago I was always singing Deep Purple 'Strange Kind Of Woman', because my girlfriend was called Nancy, her face was nothing fancy and it was like in the song
Fuck, that sounds so damn familiar. Now guess why I haven't been around so much lately! What's your most recent anti-women playlist? Mine isThe saYer said:

I was trying to be funny so I apprecite someone liked it but I was being a bit serious as well. I don't want to turn this post into some kind of sex thing, but my willy an pretty much do whatever I want it to on command. I mean all it does is hang around all day while the rest of my body has to work.
Life must be good being a dick. Maybe that is where the phrase came from when it comes to your bosses. They always are hanging around, don't do a hell of a lot, but pretty much dictate what you are going to do when they want to.
