How does a song, as beautiful as this one, that should only bring peace and harmony to all who hear it, start arguments among people. Just listen to the music, it's not difficult. Listen to it, feel it and let yourself melt away. There is a lot of hate and ugliness in this world to cover it three times over. Let beauty such as this be a beacon of solitude and refined peace remain untouched by it all. We can't change the world, but we can take refuge in the few things that are beautiful.
I turned 17 a few days after this album came out. My dad gave this to me as a gift. Awesome. Still remember driving home from work on late nights and listening to this song. Or being out on the road heading to the camp for a hunt early in the morning.
I Hate You serenityluvsgod! don't you have anything better to do than to bash p.o.d. Try removing the fucking forest from your eye before try to remove a splinter from someone else's! I Luv P.O.D. They have done nothing but inspire me!
Sonny has made incredible statements, identifying P.O.D. & the Bible,with false-prophet Bob Marley! Sonny also says in Guitar World, that P.O.D. believes in Jesus Christ just like the Rastas do, who have a unique teaching akin to Hinduism. One of the most blatantly blasphemous and perverted images of the Lord Jesus Christ ever displayed, P.O.D. has proudly paraded during their concerts-the Lord Jesus Christ as a Rastafarian-complete with dreadlocks! PM me for more info. & proof.
@serenityluvsgod Funny...nobody seems to care, because its good music and conveys a good meaning, get over it, your on like every POD page and its kind of pathetic...seriously
@serenityluvsgod Hey bud I see you're catching alot of Flak from people. I dont think any of the their music has any form of cursing in it. Some of it is pretty inspiring. Heck you can even find some of their music in the Family Christian Book Store. Ive never been to one of their concerts but I have been to Youth Camps where POD's music was played on loud speaker. Appearances can be deceiving, yes these guys dont look the part of your typical Christian but I dont think Jesus did either.
Anyone who would support someone who perverts the Lord Jesus Christ into a Rastaman-is WICKED! SHAME ON YOU if you defend and listen to P.O.D.! They disobey the clear teachings of the Bible, use filthy profanity in their speech, fellowship with and promote openly wicked, vulgar & satanic music and performers, Their CD covers contain blatantly occult symbols, corrupt the pure teachings of Christ with the false religion of Rastafarianism, attack Bible Believing Christians & Christianity,etc.!
try these out-not too similar but each have their own unique atmosphere and instrumental: Soulfly-Soulfly IV; V; VI;Pink Floyd-Marooned;Is There Anybody Out There; Stevie Ray Vaughan-Riviera Paradise; Eric Clapton-Signe; Van Halen-Respect The Wind; Metallica-To Live Is To Die; Down-Doob Interlude
@VII89 Check out Buckethead's slow stuff, Joe Satriani, Deftones, Weezer, Stone Sour's slow stuff. I know some have vocals, but they make you feel the same as this song.
i remember i loved these guys when i was a kid, and i bought their album and my mom and my therapist made me throw it cuz i was traumatized with satan n that images scared and now I REGRET IT DAMN cuz i don't believe in satan anymore .)
i have this album and it is kinda of freaky its not all that Christian if you notice the fairy on the album is is considered witch craft also if you open the album up it has a lot of dark and odd images that are Satanic but eh no ones perfect. Payable on Death is still one hell of a band Christian or non Christian they always give there fans a positive message in there songs.
@MsTheSteef: aren't there even 3 giutars, 2 acoustic and one electric? tried to play only few parts, too, only parts of different melodies, but this is far too much =) but a thumb-up for trying is =)))
@wischmoppkoenigin im going to find you and and torture much like the scene in "Law Abiding Citizen" you critical unaccomplished mother fucker. bet you cant even write a song
what a song. I wouldn't discuss about this band at all, everybody thinks differently about it, but this is... I cannot choose my favourite part in it, I always think: this! no... wait... this one is better! no... this here is even more better... and so on, till the end of the song =) and I think: THIS is beauty =)
These are the funnest songs to create. You can tell it just came together over time, and they had fun recording it. So many chances to create behind these chord progressions.
I like to sit on my back porch around sunset, hit the bong a couple times, and just relax, listening to this song, the sounds of the world, and nothing else. Observing the world in all of it's wonderous and generally unseen complex beauty. Eternal + Pot = One of the most amazing feelings of universal understanding and joy I have ever experienced.
@SacraRebelYolks wow...well said my friend...your not alone....burn one down...these are life´s finest moments...enjoy it...reflection is remedy...keep burnin
@oowattanite Amen to that! And as far as the Christians who keep sending me messages about, "Pot is bad, god would not like it," and blah blah blah, I would like to quote to you Genesis Chapter 1 verse 29: All seed bearing plants I give to you. Jesus Drank wine correct? He trusted MAN enough to drink what had been concocted from his fathers creations, but you won't trust god enough to use his creation in its raw form? God made weed, Man made Booze. Who do YOU trust?
I always imagine walking into the pearly gates and that first sight, that first feeling, first encounter with our Heavenly father. Waterfalls and mountains. Just takes you there.
Man.... I remember i first got this album and me and my mom drove around savannah Georgia and i just listened to this song the whole time almost... well i liked the whole album.. I love this album.... I think this is one of there most unique albums.... I think it has a bit of everything we like about p.o.d.
@kweerb8 they don't really tour much anymore.. they are on south america right now and if they end up recording another album then they might go on a u.s. tour
yes this is a master piece. i looked it ups its got over 7 guitars in it. this puts me in a meditative state almost. this was my favorite album from pod actually. this song was the main reason 2.
This is my favourite instrumental track ever. It really calmed me down when I was going through a bad time.
