What? No Nomination For "Harvest?"

[King Purple Rainbow]

This sucks.

"Harvest" is one of the finest songs I've ever heard! And without a doubt, the most accesible of the songs on BLACKWATER PARK.

So why is it under the radar?

No video play, no radio play???

It should've been nominated for something...

A Grammy, a Video Music Award...

S O M E T H I N G ! ! !

I know, I know...Opeth is the complete opposite of the commercial artist. But a little recognition would be nice...

 

[IcemanJ256]

heh. whatever. Yeah Harvest is the song that got me into Opeth. but I'm not expeecting it to get played on MTV anytime soon.

 

[King Purple Rainbow]

I know it won't...

But it should. It would easily be the best song on that freakin' channel!

 

[Eirik]

Yeah.. I like the fact that Opeth more or less belong to us who actually care...

 

[Gregsmack]

I think it would be funny seeing Mikael on TRL saying things like "Linkin Park and Papa Roach are like boybands with guitars," or "Oh Staind are so fucking worthless."

----------------
Host: So......Mikael, we're going to play some videos, and we'd like you to tell all our awesome viewers out there what THE Mikael Akerfeldt thinks of them.

Mikael: Okay.

Host: First, Linkin Park and Papa Roach.

Mikael: Boybands with guitars.

Host: Um..okay.. what about Staind?

Mikael: Fucking worthless.

Host: Um.. okay!
------------------

Come on, you all know you'd love to see that.

Harvest is only a half-video anyway. I mean it doesn't really say anything visually, except "we're laid back guys who drink beer and eat weird pizza."

 

[King Purple Rainbow]

Well then, scrap that video!

Make a new one that actually has the feel of the song and put it on Mtv2 Rock for crying out loud!!!

Opeth="Hey Carson Daly...BITE ME!"

 

[Slipknot_isn't_metal]

nah ....i really wouldn't wanna see opeth on M-TV or MuchMusic or any of those crap channels.....

 

[Demonspell]

I do think Harvest could conceivably get airplay, but only in a pre-deregulation market. Thank the 1996 telecommunications act for ruining everything.

you are crazy, fuck mtv, fuck the radio, and fuck the mainstream. opeth and any other death black metal band you name it is too good for the mainstream

 

[Jayde]

Harvest is beautiful

The MTV fucks would say it's boring, anyway. Because it doesn't have the dope rap beatz.

 

[Opethfan1980]

I totally agree with Erik. I'm glad that Opeth is for us who actually care enough to seek them out.

 

[StorTroll]

Too good for MTV....

 

[King Purple Rainbow]

Yeah, they are too good.
