No Picture D.J Wanna Be	#1 by D.J Mortensen at Oct 6, 2007 at 9:27 PM EST
	I love this song, but i don't think it is one of there best... I mean there is so much emotion to it and so much anger. But it is about the only one that i don't understand and that i can't realate to, but thats me :) silverstein = #1

No Picture Frank Wanna Be	#2 by Frank at Oct 7, 2007 at 5:14 PM EST
	Sounds like he got in a fight with his girlfriend or something, and they split up due to it. Maybe they had a hidden relationship and once people found out it all fell apart?

No Picture Toby Musical Thunder	#3 by Toby at Oct 12, 2007 at 12:35 AM EST
	an exquisite display of Silversteins pottentially fulfilled talent that portrays the inner aggression, sadness, and anger throughout not only this song, but in every Silverstein song ever created. in other words.....Silverstein=best band in the world.

No Picture Neal Average	#4 by Neal Breen at Oct 15, 2007 at 10:17 PM EST
	yes, silverstein is terrific. this song kicks ass
