Tab Discussion, Comments, and Critiques


No Picture Abe Lead Player	#1 by Abe Watson at Dec 25, 1970 at 2:54 PM EST
	this song is just an opinion of the band. what now artist cant have thier own opinion on anything witout ppl saying "Omg how can he write about that" blah artist are just like any other person they have thier opinions and they have the right to express it

No Picture tristan Rhythm Player	#2 by tristan drew at Jan 6, 1976 at 8:02 AM EST
	This is my absolute favorite song from Thursday. I think that this particular song is about what we are doint ot our country and ourselves. Its saying how everything is fake and that we're hurting others while trying to make ourselves look good. I love Thursday so much because even if the style of music is too much for some people (which it isn't for me) the lyrics should have an effect on them.

No Picture GRIM Professional	#3 by GRIM at Jul 22, 2003 at 8:32 AM EST
	Sun by Michael Palmer - almost the same words.. i love this song, i was quite disapointed to read the poem and follow along with the song...

No Picture Angus Rhythm Player	#4 by Angus Young at Jun 18, 2005 at 9:30 PM EST
	one of there best.

No Picture dalton Average	#5 by dalton hoffman at Jun 7, 2006 at 9:13 PM EST
	What's the whole controversy surrounding this song? I remember reading some poem with similar lyrics, but I can't remember who it's by and what site it was at and all of that. Anyone know? As for the whole plaigerism issue, I have a feeling it's some kind of hoax or something. No intelligent human being is going to plaigerize a poem, use it on a CD, copywrite it, and distribute it internationally... unless the poem wasn't copywritten, in which case it's fair game I guess...
