jesus, that was a lot of information. they all need to get over it & keep it in their freaking pants.

seems like it would give me something to do when really bored and me and ethan have nothing better to do.. haha.. i'll bring this up to him whenever he gets online..

for every ONE taking back sunday song there could be two brand new songs that could be going back to that one taking back sunday song.. and the other way around..

it would be rather funny if these guys sat with each other and wrote.. cause **** sounds that way..

today after studying the sound of each band. i think lead singer in brand new has a much sexier. and nicer voice.. then in taking back sunday.. its more whinny and what not.. and the songs don't sound so clear recorded as they do with brand new..

all of you think too much
The winner here could honestly be decided in a spirited THUMB WRESTLING match

explosions-in-my-pants · 03-04-2006, 12:37 PM

no i just think its interest in the band's history... and just being so bored.

I prefer Adams voice. So shoot me. It has more texture. I know thats not one of the best ways to describe a sound, but still... I still prefer Brand New in general, and Jesse's blatantly the better lyricist. The more you listen, the more you find with his lyrics. Its all good.

But hya's right. They needa quit dwelling on such a silly li'l thing. Which Im sure they have done by now, and they got a good couple o albums out of it, but meh. Tad lame.

Antonio Adam = me forgetting to put the period and you probaly did see an old vid of jesse, adam and john they we're all very very very close friends. So Jesse was vocalist, then he went off to the form the Rookie Lot with the rest of Brand new, which was when Taking Back Sunday hired Antonio to sing, and he sucked so Adam took over and Murder Junkie if you have nothing to add but making stupid posts about the band and saying its pointless making the comparsions don't post or read it no one is forcing you to. I also think, they do need to quit dwelling on the whole thing, but tis hell interesting.

i am heaven sent, don't you dare forget.
i am all you've ever wanted,
what all the other boys all promised.
sorry i told. i just needed you to know.
i think in decimals and dollars.
i am the cause to all your problems,
shelter from cold. we are never alone.
coordinate brain and mouth.
then ask me what's it like to have myself so figured out.
i wish i knew..

i hope this song starts a craze.
the kind of song that ignites the airwaves.
the kind of song that makes people glad to be where they are,
with whoever they're there with.
this is war.
every line is about who i don't wanna write about anymore.
hope you come down with something they can't diagnose,
don't have the cure for.
holding on to your grudge.
oh it's so hard to have someone to love.
and keeping quiet is hard.
'cause you can't keep a secret
if it never was a secret to start.
at least pretend you didn't wanna get caught..

we're concentrating on falling apart.
we were contenders, we're throwing the fight
i just wanna believe, i just wanna believe,
i just wanna believe in us.

oh, we're so c-c-c-c-c-controversial.
we are entirely smooth.
we admit to the truth,
we are the best at what we do.
and these are the words you wish you wrote down.
this is the way you wish your voice sounds,
handsome and smart.
oh my tongue's the only muscle on my body
that works harder than my heart.
and it's all from watching tv,
and from speeding up my breathing.
wouldn't stop if i could.
oh it hurts to be this good.
you're holding on to your grudge.
oh it hurts to always have to be honest
with the one that you love.
oh, so let it go..

we're concentrating on falling apart.
we were contenders, we're throwing the fight
i just wanna believe, i just wanna believe,
i just wanna believe..

we're concentrating on falling apart.
we were contenders, we're throwing the fight
i just wanna believe, i just wanna believe,
i just wanna believe in us.

this is the grace that only we can bestow.
this is the price you pay for loss of control.
this is the break in the bend,
this is the closest of calls.
this is the reason you're alone,
this is the rise and the fall.

we're concentrating on falling apart.
we were contenders, we're throwing the fight
i just wanna believe, i just wanna believe,
i just wanna believe..

we're concentrating on falling apart.
we were contenders, we're throwing the fight
i just wanna believe, i just wanna believe,
i just wanna believe in us.

That's made me want to listen to that song now.
Hah.
