    Watched an interview where Andrew said he doesn't do metal due to how much he loves and respects it. And how sacred it is to fans. So you know if he's going to release a metal track, its getting all his attention and love put into it. He killed it. Absolutely showed that he can sit right up there with the best of em. His passion for what he does is damn near unrivaled. Been a fan of his whole career. Dude is special.

      I can say that this is 100% true. I went to Vans Warped Tour back in 03, and went to get his autograph. He spent over an hour signing, and then saw me and a bunch of others in the back of the line looking kind of bummed out that we might not get to meet him. He brought everyone up from the back and then made sure we all got to meet him. When he asked my named, I told him, and he started to spell it 'Steven'. I didn't even say anything and he stops writing and asks me " is it with a PH or a V?" And I just kind of shrugged it off and said "it's with a PH, but it's not a big deal man!". He then crumples up the paper and grabs one of his own little papers from behind his chair, and then writes out "To: Stephen. If we're not going to try and do it right, we shouldn't even bother! Thank you very much! Stick with me! Party hard! Your friend, Andrew WK." I still have it framed next to my bed with a four leaf clover I found that day. Always gives me motivation.

  • @PerogiXW
    @PerogiXW 3 роки тому +567

    Incredible song, but there's a certain lyric that I think people may be getting wrong. Well, not exactly wrong per se, but there's a double entendre in the second verse. After Andrew sings Persephone(x3) the lyric "to err is divine" (an obvious reference to Alexander Pope) can ALSO be read as "to Eris, divine", as in the Greek Goddess of Discord. This is especially apparent since he earlier sang about "the lover of chaos and strife", with Eris being known as a popular god of chaos and Eris being literally the word Strife in ancient Greek. She was also called a goddess of war by Homer. The real proof is in the music video, where this lyric is accompanied by Andrew holding a golden apple, which Eris famously threw in to the wedding of Peleus and Thetis, leading to an argument among the gods that resulted in the Trojan war. Just thought I'd share since I didn't see many people picking up on this!

    A little personal story for anyone interested in reading, I remember in highschool I was one of the few "metal" guys who liked Andrew W.K. I was instantly a fan when I saw a live video of party hard, I was like "this guy seriously loves music. I don't care his vocals kinda suck, this is metal as fuck."
    Now fast forward some 20 years and he releases something like this that is legitimately metal as fuck. I can't believe he wrote something like this given the vast majority of his work is somewhere between pop and punk.

The flashing logos looked like the logo for the show, plus another that looked like the classic cartoon network logo. Watched that show like crazy when I was a kid, didn't discover his music till years later, first was "Music is Worth Living For", and I have been hooked since.

      Something makes me think they're all 9 out of 393. It's either that or you happened to get an exceptionally rare disc and if you brought it to AWK himself he would probably recognize it as being insanely special numerologically significant 93/93. But you might want to ask around other people who have the same disc on a forum and see what they say they have as their serial number out of 393.
