Tab Discussion, Comments, and Critiques


No Picture jordan Average	#1 by jordan roberts at Feb 20, 1975 at 12:55 PM EST
	fuck off Adamizer, you don't know jack shit. why the fuck should it matter when you started listening to LD 50? ooo i'm so impressed! shut up, this song is the best song on LD 50, and the best side of Mudvayne, so like darld said, go back to your fucking Hanson and pop bullshit

No Picture Sara Average	#2 by Sara Sunshine at Feb 22, 1981 at 8:33 AM EST
	what makes you say that??? you dont know me, and you wouldnt know a rational thought if it came up and bit you in the ass. if you were the god of all thinkers, i wouldnt want to be one of your people, its a dying race. only the smart survive, and your people would die off faster than the dodos. anyway, i saw them live on the Pledge of Allegience tour and they were awesome. i think you must be thinking of a different band. Go back to your fucking Hanson and Backstreet Boy faggots!!!

No Picture Colin Wanna Be	#3 by Colin Gauld at Aug 10, 1982 at 3:44 PM EST
	i took this song to be more about a personal decision you have to make rather than helping someone else. the whole disruption of freinds and family really speak to the song being about what the person is doing rather than what the person is doing for other people; it suggests that the person has to do something to be true to themselves (insert alternate important reason here) and in doing so must turn their backs on other ties and obligations. look at the long list of things being divorced, and then wonder why they're being divorced. to help someone? or is it a process of self actualization and becoming?

No Picture Kyle Average	#4 by Kyle at Feb 13, 1993 at 12:22 PM EST
	Ain Svph Avr(Soph Aur) means The Limitless, or Boundless Light. It is the only negative existent principle. It is the only principle in which humans can make themselves a weak and unclear conception.

No Picture drw Average	#5 by drw drw at Dec 30, 1993 at 9:32 PM EST
	thanks ginninvillain6, fans like you are a part of what makes MuDvAyNe awesome, the fact that the real fans can tell what is truly good. all the other poser rockers should take example of adamizer. that is not how to act if you are going to pose.

No Picture John Wanna Be	#6 by John Merritt at May 10, 1998 at 10:24 PM EST
	Ive always thought its about being sick and tired of having to live up to everyone's expactations.

No Picture Nic Rhythm Player	#7 by Nic F at Nov 27, 2001 at 9:42 PM EST
	GOD YOU MOTHERFUCKERS SUCK! I'VE NEVER HEARD MORE INANE RAMBLINGS BY SUCH UNEDUCATED FREAKS. Having said that: let us begin. Ain Soph Aur are these ASSHOLE bunch of fucks that have a lame ass band and they claim to be more enlightened and intelligent than everyone else and say their music is the only music worth anything. That makes them a MET-A-PHOR, say it with me. For someone who looks down on look like they're better than you. Divorce seems to be pretty dominant in this song so lets put it all together. Either Chad (fuck calling this nerd Kud, no matter how cool his songs are) or his parents (back to his mean ol' dad) were in a relationship with someone who thought they were above the plate pusher away. This person severs all ties and spits up and pushes everything away from them, or a divorce. Some bitter resentment at someone with a superiority complex is the root of this song? Nobody on this website should EVER become a pyschologist.

No Picture Dillon Rhythm Player	#8 by Dillon H. at May 6, 2007 at 8:10 AM EST
	to me, it's about how everyone at one point thinks that no one cares about them, and that if they leave everyone else before everyone else leaves them, it won't hurt as much. again, just my opinion

No Picture marc Professional	#9 by marc at Jul 6, 2007 at 1:17 AM EST
	i think that this song means that when you think that someone loves and cares about you, they will eventyally turn and walk away from you. i think that Kud had a horrible life and mine could probably never ammount to his, and my pain isnt near to his. Mudvayne is a lot like Korn, if you think about it. They both sing about how horrible their life was and how their father was never there. Jonathan Davis, who grew up in my town bakersfield CA, had a traumatizing life, and i am surprized that he talks to his parents. Kud, i dont know a whole lot about, but i imagine that he was neglected as a child by either his mother or father, or both. (this is a great sonhg!!!!!!!)
