    I think we can all relate to this song. At one point or another we all go through the exact shit talked about in this song.

    This song has "hit single" written all over it. The video was pretty clever too. When I saw it the first time it looked familiar, then WOW! at the end, that's Sunset where it crosses over Silverlake. So I watched a few more times looking for other landmarks, and spotted the Casbah Cafe near the beginning. The route followed is Sunset from Sanborn to Silverlake.

  • @BiggAlmilky
    @BiggAlmilky 16 років тому +1

    I honestly don't think i can say how much i love this band and what a breath of fresh air they are from the generic pop bands which seem to fill the UK charts these days.
    Song writing with honesty and passion tinted with humour and sadness. They truly are brillant and like most of us on here i think they're acoustic versions are better than their album tracks because they can show more of their raw passion for playing.
    Definitely going to see them while they are in the UK.

    i bet anyone in this world 1,000,000 dollars that when ever they travel they jsut say "hey dude lets shoot a friggin music video" boom.... music video in a boat, grass, tunnel..... and even a car. I think its the best types of music videos.

  • @ugottjon
    @ugottjon 14 років тому

    I know he's not a very good singer (and I don't mean he's bad, i love his voice, and his voice is amazing for the stuff her writes), but I'd rather have his voice compared to having a voice like Steve Perry or someone like that.

    Lyrically the band is kind of weak but the tunes are just plain catchy and they are
    amazing creative that I personally think it makes up for the lack of great lyrics.The on the list of bands I like.

    Sometime Around Midnight and Gasoline are the only ones that have acoustic versions that are commercially released. If you really wanted to you could convert it.

  • @Bartleby1701
    @Bartleby1701 16 років тому

    I'm sure this has been discussed, but is this band named after the Don Delillo novel "White Noise"? I loved that book - great cultural reference.
    Cool band too.

  • @KawhackitaRag
    @KawhackitaRag 15 років тому

    I like this version a bit better, but my previous opinion about the melody and harmony of the tune still applies. The creative ideas for setting and percussion are nice, though.
