    I want to thank my late wife, Megan, for introducing me to this before she departed. This and a few other songs kept me alive to finish raising our daughter. If anyone else is on the ropes and reading this, hold fast. Keep your chin up and refuse to quit. I'm proud of you for endeavoring. It gets better.

      Whoa, don't look now but some of you might be getting old. It's been my experience that those who don't crave novelty get stuck on their, teen/early twenties era music, being biased by association with peer consensus and fond experiences of youth. I've known some who deny that's what it is and some who lean into it, believing it inevitable for one to become a curmudgen, yet I'm probably older than you guys. Those of my generation got stuck in the eighties, which to me is clearly the worst era of the last century.

      @LovesmyKimmy 10 лет назад +6

      Aside from the rest of the album being weak compared to this, they did themselves a major disservice by fighting the internet. Nu metal never made it mainstream so the bands that did get huge did it online and underground. These guys, I believe, had some corporate backers who fought their underground/online exposure. There were a few years full of bands that got stuck by the ""Be heard" or "be paid"" dilemma. Unless you're a top act, it's a new luxury to be able to do both.

      Ty for posting the LYRICS! RUclips's captioning sucks A** for this song especially bc of the particular accent he has when singing this song. I love it...especially for that time in my life and since that song, as well as many others were setting a stage for so many songs and bands that were so ahead of their time .
      To be fair...it felt like it was the first time so many bands came out and were ahead of their time but that was just an experience of my generation (from our direct perspective)...but as I was saying, to be fair, The Hippie Movement and Generation, so to speak...had some of the most drastic and amazing evolutionary jumps from the music of the former years and the music of Jimi Hendrix, Jefferson Airplane, The Beatles, The Eagles, and so on.
      Of course I'm sure if Mozart, Chopin, Bethoveen, & the others were still alive they would probably add another "fair" NOTABLE of their own! 😅

    I started with 80s thrash and 70s heavy metal, then got into new bands (2010s-2020s). I liked few early 90s bands like Primus or Infectious Grooves, for some reason I’ve always skipped the late 90s/early 2000s.

      Bruh I saw them live with Deftones and Linkin Park when White Pony had just released and Linkin Park only had one single on the radio. Deftones' equipment trailer got stuck in a snowstorm in Colorado or something and they had to rent instruments from a local music shop down the street from the venue. They pretty much said fk it, played some of the fan favorites and just played covers and jammed the rest of the night. It was really informal and casual, and it made for a really unforgettable show. Taproot had tons of energy and Linkin Park had a meet and greet with fans until Deftones started. Everyone who wanted to meet them got a handshake. It was an awesome show.
