Tab Discussion, Comments, and Critiques


No Picture Pablo Rhythm Player	#1 by Pablo Muñiz at Feb 18, 1971 at 2:25 PM EST
	YOU ALL MISSED THE POINT EXCEPT SKATCHPADS,,,thank you SKATCH PADS, all you fools are ignorant. its about a guy named CARTER who was good friends with vinnie and died during the recording....

No Picture Austin Wanna Be	#2 by Austin Skitowski at Dec 14, 1974 at 12:56 AM EST
	i think "is this thing on?" on is a reference to the line "no one hears even though you've talked all night," and the idea of someone talking to a crowd with a microphone but they feel no one can hear so asks "is this thing on?"

No Picture Steven Average	#3 by Steven Daniel at Oct 22, 1978 at 7:45 PM EST
	check the LTJ site. this songs about one of vinnies friends that died when they were writing for the album.

No Picture blake Average	#4 by blake pratt at Oct 18, 1979 at 2:40 PM EST

No Picture Brett Professional	#5 by Brett Czap at Aug 2, 1980 at 2:45 PM EST
	I love this song! It really sticks out on Borders & Boundaries...it gets me in such a good mood when I listen to it! I can't wait to see LTJ LIIVVEEE!

No Picture Lyssa CHAOS Average	#6 by Lyssa CHAOS at Nov 19, 1995 at 11:26 AM EST
	to me this songs about someone coming to you for advice and you can't really say anything. i relate it to when me and this boy where half egttign together but he already was caugth up in a realtionship and was trying to lay it on me....and i was saying "well it's not my problem" as in -----"i've been on that ledge countless times and i know what it feels like/you're on your own/can't make it through this world all alone/ is this thing on?" as in sort it out yourself, you're on your own, i wont make teh decision for you. i don't know. just my interpriation.

No Picture batman Average	#7 by batman chum at Apr 26, 1996 at 9:08 AM EST
	ow, my hand hurts.....i've been playing this song on my bass all morning, and no my hand hurts...............the song is worth it, tho:D

No Picture sebastian Wanna Be	#8 by sebastian Shamburg at Nov 21, 2005 at 3:46 PM EST
	This song is so incredible. LTJ has put out some powerful songs, and this is definitely one of them. I think everyone's been to that place at some point when they're just overwhelmed, and you can't seem to find the way to make it right, but you just keep thinking to yourself that its going to work out so don't freak out about it.

No Picture *Lee Average	#9 by Lee at Jul 21, 2006 at 4:51 PM EST
	LTJ is great at writing songs almost everyone if not everyone can relate to... great song
