The music is what brings me to a song, the lyrics are what keep me around.

All of my favorite songs have lyrics/stories/verses that I adore.

perfect circle, talk talk

For real?

I also always wanted to know how both Dr. Dre's handled things.

My daughter sang loud and thought Bruno Mars was saying "Hot Ham" on Uptown Funk

Weezer on El Scorcho

"I asked you to go to the Green Day concert

You said you never heard of them (how cool is that)

How cool is that?

So I went to your room and read your diary"

Nice to see VAST on a reddit recommendation list for once. Jon Crosby was such a boss vocalist back in the day (don't know if they are still active/touring). I think "I Don't Have Anything" is one of the most humbling and heart wrenching songs I'll ever know.

Thanks for going in with an open mind! Like most of us, I love finding new music and new bands, but I always find it extra amazing to discover one through a random internet stranger. Happenstance. Right place right time.

And for what it's worth, I'm in my mid 40s but I saw flor play live right before COVID shut everything down, so like 3 years ago or so, and and they are really good live. The vocalist sounds just as good live as he does in videos or in studio. Good energy too.

I DON'T KNOW HOW BUT THEY FOUND ME

(also, you probably missed The Gufs back in the day but if you like Our Lady Peace there's a chance you'd like some of the songs in their catalogue)
