Ah, you have to be of a certain age to remember 3rd Base. Sigh, days gone by eh? I don't mean to be predictable but this song personifies what BNL are all about: great lyrics, sung lyrically. Simon & Garfunkelesque (not sure if that's a bone fide term but, hell, let's make it one!)
If there's anything BNL ain't, it's jerks. (See Ed's description of this video.) They are the most awesome band around! No one is nicer to their fans.
Is anyone tabbing the bathroom sessions? That's how to really play the songs folks. If you tab them, make sure you let me know. Love this song, You Rock Ed. Maybe we will play guitar hero sometime. LOL
Watching these, I'm surprised how well the songs work with a single voice and acoustic guitar. Gotta pop BLAM back in the CD player in the car now. :-)
I am so retarded - "half glass spilled" is from Maybe Not - its the "Making Love to a TV" part of Down to Earth that's in my head... both songs are. It's driving me crazy.
One person's not Down to Earth :P

Are you talking about Steven?!? If you don't like his singing you might as well not like Barenaked Ladies period! He's awesome!
mattboy1152 2 years ago
I find this funny due to steven's leaving... I just realized that now the lead singers of 2 of my favorite band aren't steve! noo!!!!!!!!!!!
