[ChrisMiecznikowski92]

uhhhhhh, listen to the cds and When We Die, plus he sounds way, way better than me and I luv his singing on the cds and live.

[ChrisMiecznikowski92]

They're on MTV saying "when music was still on MTV"

[tucc4113]

HAHAHA yeah

[ChrisMiecznikowski92]

oh yeah, btw this is an SR-71 song with a slight difference in lyrics, look it up

[tucc4113]

k thanks

[almixon]

What they mean by When Music was still on MTV is that as time grew on the music got worse what happened to the classics

[ChrisMiecznikowski92]

I thought it was a wise crack about how MTV has become more about the shows.

[Funkmastap]

it is meant to be

"U2 and blonde music still on MTV" and not

"U2 and blondee,

Music still on mtv"

(notice where the comma is)

[areyoucursed]

It's called breathing.

[ThatOneChick92]

uhhh dude, it's "There was U2 and BLONDIE (the musician)"

[Ksmicer]

sum1 named funkmastap must feel dumb.. besides the fact

this song and band are awesome

love it acoustic even more

[Josh1758]

ha ha silly person

[DarkArtist108]

I like this song better acoustic style as well. Awesome video! x]

^ In my opinion.

[pleasehangup]

[bryceman660]

How come they blocked out "ass"?

[hannahsucksxx5]

because it is a bad word duh get it

[bryceman660]

Oh I didn't know they censored swears on MTV

[TitanicTarn]

"How come they blocked out "ass"? "

'ass', like everything else, offends the uptight, clench kneed Christian groups..

[emoelf112233]

[emoelf112233]

[zenith995]

[hardyzfan3434]

Does anyone have the tabs to what they are playing? I can't find the exact one that they are playing. Thanks.

[ColmOShea92]

I think they made a bit of it up as they went along, but have a look on ultimate-guitar, they have a few acoustic B4S songs,

[hardyzfan3434]

Yeah, i've looked on ultimate guitar and othere sites before but i'm looking for exactly what they were playing. Thanks for your help anyway.

[ColmOShea92]

ive got chords for this song, its just the intro & then its what the second guitarist is playing (i forget his name) it sounds alright, but im not sure how to get what jaret is playing.
