Tab Discussion, Comments, and Critiques


No Picture Reece Wanna Be	#1 by Reece Brown at Sep 27, 2007 at 5:35 AM EST
	sapphiregirls probaly refers to alot of women who these days only care about money and pretty things, in my opinon this song compares societiy to the wilderness and how there really isn't any real freedom and how the book burning part talks about how we are losing our right to free speech, also the line that says "Lost to the treasures that compel us" means that people will do just about anything for money (like the sapphire girls thing) and i think that alert status red is about how there is always something that is happening to keep the terror level up (like the color coding sysytem in the US always seems to be elevated) and how we always seem to be living in fear

No Picture David Average	#2 by David Turner at Oct 2, 2007 at 12:10 PM EST
	I totally agree with River Wolf. "Alert status red, but the sun comes up instead"... we're being told that terror is going to happen, and is happening, yet the days keep going on and we can't do anything but watch our men be shipped overseas. I absolutely love this song though. It's filled with anger and truth.

No Picture Average	#3 by Fig at Oct 3, 2007 at 3:18 AM EST
	I love this song. I hate MTV, i swear i dont think that the video was disrespectful at all to the Columbine victims, i mean it's not like if they showed footage of them and these things happen and everyone saw it on TV.

No Picture inaki Wanna Be	#4 by inaki laris at Oct 4, 2007 at 12:02 AM EST
	jesus christ greensky you're a fucking idiot. matthew good is for people that respected MGB and understood his beginnings. go fuck a cow.

No Picture Max Wanna Be	#5 by Max Contreras at Oct 5, 2007 at 12:52 PM EST
	A really good song by Matthew Good. Go Canadian music. I heard of the radio that he attacks George W. Bush in this song, especially how he's paranoid and all code red and Iraq bullshit. he says that in the wilderness ya don't need to put up with that crap.

No Picture kyle Average	#6 by kyle sharpshooter at Oct 10, 2007 at 2:14 AM EST
	Great Song I didnt like MGB but since he's been on his own I've loved this guy amazing song

No Picture tristan Rhythm Player	#7 by tristan drew at Oct 11, 2007 at 9:32 AM EST
	I say that the power of Matt is his lyrics and that since he's now doing solo, his song are still as powerfull. That song is filled with truth how the US manage the "degree of terror". The video of this song was including Columbine footage and was later removed from MTV.

No Picture Perfect Pervers Rhythm Player	#8 by Perfect Perversion™ at Oct 11, 2007 at 9:46 PM EST
	I like this song

No Picture Lucas Average	#9 by Lucas Lawrey at Oct 17, 2007 at 3:07 PM EST
	the interpreter? hmm ... what hostile interpretations you have. Actually, I thought this song sounded more like MGB's earlier stuff. I didn't know it was that new when I heard it. I wonder what the "sapphire girls" are?
