love greg love the whole band i saw them 5 times in show and talked to them and all my respects go out to you guys and greg should run for office greg graffin for president hell ya
BR should create project with songs like that. It would be amazing stuff. I have to admit I listen to it more, recently than to my all bloved punk rock songs of Yours I wish You also inevitable new great punk "strangerthan fiction"-style album soon
FattyMateo nope... I got the point. Thanks for the concern, all the same. Were you really laughing so hard that you were crying? Or was that an exaggeration (a.k.a. a lie)?
Here's a story of an honest man losing religion Climbing the pulpit steps before an eager congregation While praying came a wicked inspiration Brothers, sisters, this is what he said Dearly beloved, dearly beloved, dearly beloved (make no mistake, despite our traits, I've seldom seen) I can't relate to you (I can't relate to you) I can't relate to you He was the kind of guy who'd always go right out of his way But more before the crazy notion leapt right into his head And stubbornly crept into every mad perception I can't deny a funny feeling when he said Dearly beloved, dearly beloved, dearly beloved (make no mistake, despite our traits, I've seldom seen) I can't relate to you (I can't relate to you) I can't relate to you Dearest in memoriam, set phasers to stun And grab yourself a neighbor's skeleton to lean upon Did you know him in life, one filled with regret? So soon we all forget we ever met Do you know my name? Sing a light refrain For a man estranged I won't deny that I'm inclined to isolate Dearly beloved, dearly beloved, dearly beloved (I can't believe) I can't relate to you, I can't relate to you (I can't relate to you, I can't relate to you) I can't relate to you, I can't relate to you (I can't relate to you)
i think that someone fiddled with the pitch...@grumpdy The song is called "do what you want" not superman xD and it goes "hey, I dont know if the billions will survive, but I'll belive in god when 1 and 1 are 5"
I wish they would sing the backup vox live like they do on the records. Does Greg do the backup vox on the record and the backup singers can't do them live?
@grre77 Greg's no atheist. Contrary to popular belief, he does not identify himself as an atheist, but chooses to identify as a naturalist. And the band itself is less about anti-theism than simply using religion as a metaphor that doesn't allow for an individual's freedom to think or express themselves as they choose.
The "evidence of genes" part that appears in the official lyrics of this song doesn't seem to be actually mentioned. Neither here nor in the original studio recording. Did anybody else notice that?
"remember when they get saved you heard it here first" Hate to break it to you, but this isn't my first time hearing stupid shit from delusional people, least of all Christ-punching. Next time you could try something like "Bad Religion will be writing songs about how there's a giant copy of the Mona Lisa's face on the surface of Saturn, and she speaks to us in Portuguese about the wonders of cheese-making!" At least then you'd be original.
Honestly one of my favorite songs
same
Dharma Boskat Yup.
I want a "love" button.
takes my breath away! their music and songs are all so amazing and have such a great message! powerful! i love these guys!!!!!!!!!!!!
Set phasers to stun...
Greg quotes Star Trek, nice!
And the song is perfect.
this man is so intellectual and big inspiration to me
Best song, catchy too 👌👌👌👍👍👍👏👏👏
love greg love the whole band i saw them 5 times in show and talked to them and all my respects go out to you guys and greg should run for office greg graffin for president hell ya
FANTASTIC!!
Wow...What a great version of this song. If you haven't checked out Greg's solo folk stuff you should.
best band ever....nuff said
That is it the feeling. Society is so messed up I am constantly hit by people pushing me in their direction at work
EXCELLENT! love these guys
Greg is legendary.
This is beautiful
(the reverb on his voice does it)
This song sounds great acoustic. I love it.
BR should create project with songs like that. It would be amazing stuff. I have to admit I listen to it more, recently than to my all bloved punk rock songs of Yours I wish You also inevitable new great punk "strangerthan fiction"-style album soon
thanks a lot for this. this song is great acoustic or electric..
best song everrrrrrrr
Thank you Greg Gaffin, you were instrumental in leading me back to Father.
Then I think you missed the point 😂
FattyMateo nope... I got the point. Thanks for the concern, all the same. Were you really laughing so hard that you were crying? Or was that an exaggeration (a.k.a. a lie)?
Greg is God. No more, no less.
He practically accompanied me through all my life with his voice.
@elpunko YES! And Joey Cape does a lot of acoustic version of Lagwagon songs. @kriskalwala look up: Mission Hall Chemist, or Memoirs and Land mines.
holyshit he sings great in this.
neato.
Here's a story of an honest man losing religion
Climbing the pulpit steps before an eager congregation
While praying came a wicked inspiration
Brothers, sisters, this is what he said
Dearly beloved, dearly beloved, dearly beloved (make no mistake, despite our traits, I've seldom seen)
I can't relate to you (I can't relate to you)
I can't relate to you
He was the kind of guy who'd always go right out of his way
But more before the crazy notion leapt right into his head
And stubbornly crept into every mad perception
I can't deny a funny feeling when he said
Dearly beloved, dearly beloved, dearly beloved (make no mistake, despite our traits, I've seldom seen)
I can't relate to you (I can't relate to you)
I can't relate to you
Dearest in memoriam, set phasers to stun
And grab yourself a neighbor's skeleton to lean upon
Did you know him in life, one filled with regret?
So soon we all forget we ever met
Do you know my name?
Sing a light refrain
For a man estranged
I won't deny that I'm inclined to isolate
Dearly beloved, dearly beloved, dearly beloved (I can't believe)
I can't relate to you, I can't relate to you (I can't relate to you, I can't relate to you)
I can't relate to you, I can't relate to you (I can't relate to you)
Blessed be the lyric posters
I don't care Greg u r awesome.
i think that someone fiddled with the pitch...@grumpdy The song is called "do what you want" not superman xD and it goes "hey, I dont know if the billions will survive, but I'll belive in god when 1 and 1 are 5"
AMAZING
sweet man, thanks
I went through this. I was into BR when I was religious, I wish this song had been out when I left. It would have been played over and over
amen brother
This song made me realize, long after the fact, why all us punks drifted into the rave scene and hard techno in the mid-late 90s. So good.
totally agree
i you like this kinda music, i recommend also looking up joey cape,chuck ragan and tom gabel ;)
I wish they would sing the backup vox live like they do on the records. Does Greg do the backup vox on the record and the backup singers can't do them live?
Greg is a fucking badass
True.
@grre77 Greg's no atheist. Contrary to popular belief, he does not identify himself as an atheist, but chooses to identify as a naturalist. And the band itself is less about anti-theism than simply using religion as a metaphor that doesn't allow for an individual's freedom to think or express themselves as they choose.
Well... he says he is an atheist in his book... so yeah Greg is an atheist XD
What?!!
His voice accompanied me my life too, but Greg=God?...
The "evidence of genes" part that appears in the official lyrics of this song doesn't seem to be actually mentioned. Neither here nor in the original studio recording. Did anybody else notice that?
ses vraiment bon greg acoutisque
i personally like there more up beat songs but this ones good
geeeeiiiillllll
they are the best I've been married for 22 years or fist date was
I didnt like most of his solo songs but the good ones were really good.
@ryan5290 No, it's Star Tek. Theres no phsers on Star Wars and I know what I'm talkin about, so if wanna correct me, please get informed first.
i just wrote a song, and i want the acoustics to sound good, but i know nothing about playing a guitar....

Intro: Em - B
Verse: Em - C - G - D
Pre-chorus: Em - D - G - C

They grow old :(
great song but Mr. Brett's a cappela is default, should be more visibile
what i didnt get anythign you said
greg looks like tired !!!!!!!!!!
then lets says he's the Antichrist
Too much substance
"remember when they get saved you heard it here first"
Hate to break it to you, but this isn't my first time hearing stupid shit from delusional people, least of all Christ-punching.

sorry but Emily Davis does this better
nope.
But bad religion definetly has that old school phophet on the mountain top vibe.
