godsmack-shinedown

[LedWilde]

I like this song. It also got me into a "band." The singer said,"Figure this song out!" So I did within 5 or 10 minutes on guitar, no lie and plus added a crazy solo to it that blew them away. So I was in but soon quit because the singer was a major fuck up. But the month I was in the band it was fun because all we did was get smashed and screw girls. We hardly even played music which was another reason I quit too. They weren't serious but they loved bragging about how they were in a "band."

[bozo47p]

[TopDogRam]

[XxZShadowsReaper]

Is this Shinedown the band,or GodSmack?

[silverandteal]

Godsmack is the band, the name of the song is "Shinedown"

i know it's confusing, i've heard other people ask the same q

[RageHeads]

[smugoogie]

[NINCHAILS]

Fuck ICP and fuck the gay ass juggalo shit, I say that with pride. Godsmack for life.

[XXXstuppiXXX]

[GoblinRevolver]

I got into godsmack cuz I read it was NUMETAL genre of music. NUMETAL AND 80S METAL ARE FOREVER THE GREATEST KINDS OF MUSIC EVER. DONT DENY IT, UNLESS YOU'VE HEARD ALL THE HITS/BANDS PPL...

[guitarshreder91]

godsmack arn't really numetal

[cod5m4ster]

alright, ill admit 2 this 1, im a Juggalo, ya'll can either like me or hate me, idc, but i love listening 2 some mother fuckin heavy metal, i actually prefer heavy metal than ICP nd Boondox etc...

u can judge me all u want, i dont care, u just gotta blaze ur own trails nd make ur own moves. I already made mine, its time 2 make urs

[DX231]

What the fucks a juggalo?

[cablexx07]

What is a juggalo? I dont know, but Im down with the clown, and Im down for life, yo...a Juggalo is a fan of ICP

[CypherofShadows]

More correctly a juggalo is someone who just doesn't give a fuck

[cablexx07]

damn right they don't

[warrior42069]

kottonmouth kings and icp we from west they from east!!!!!!!

[theancientyajuta3]

HU soldier

[sparkyMPM]

what annoys me is Godsmack fans taking the bait from guys trying to discrouage our great band. If they are disrespecting Godsmack, FUCK EM! leave em to hang on for your response, the internet is such a bad system that people waste hours a day arguing over who's good and not. We all know Godsmack are awesome and 20 million people around the globe know it also!!!

[DX231]

Hell Yea!

[TheMadOrc]

Agreed.

[sparkyMPM]

Glad someone's on the same wavelength, Godsmack for life!

[abduction03]

"so, tired, sleeping trough the day, bloodshot eyes and sweat from my body"

Yeah I been there too man

[bradtolbert7]

[jeffduchon121]

@bradtolbert7 no.

[bradtolbert7]

@jeffduchon121 no what

[XxSeanOfDeathxX]

@bradtolbert7 My friend... That's not hard to accomplish...

[ericcarr21]

@bradtolbert7 i saw them twice once at cruefest 2 and again at mayhem fest they were great!

[Andylong99]

thats called karma

[dmbag420]

"Godsmack" came from Interview Quote from Sully "It was back when we were just getting started, we had a photo shoot & our old drummer came in with a huge cold sore. I was making fun of him all day, but he didn't say anything back. The next day, I came to rehearsal with a huge coldsore on my lip. And Tony (Rombola, the band's guitarist), said 'That's God smacking you for yesterday.' It's about instant karma." (Originally printed in The Reader April 1, 1999.) This is what I found on the web.

[dmbag420]

The term godsmack is actually a wiccan term that has to do with the 3-fold rule. Whatever you do good/bad to others will be revisited on you 3-fold. If you do something bad, then your return of 3-fold bad back on you is often referred to as a 'godsmack.' Again, nothing to do with mocking religion. especially considering wicca is a religion. Sully has even said they respect all religions, not mock them.

[HobbyTronMyM14]

I blare Godsmack up in my fucking bad ass truck THE LADY's LIKE IT tehehe ; )

[kenzie11441]

amazing song

[hmcfl]

Please, nickelback wish they were as tight as godsmack. there is no comparison.

[jeffduchon121]

@hmcfl haha good joke.

[Sgthavoc12]

lol no, godsmack has never had rocks thrown at them. fuck head, did u even listen to the song?

[DARKREGIS]

what this about rocks? just saying singing style and msuic sound like nickelback a bit. suc k it up princess

[Sgthavoc12]

nickelback got booed off stage and got rocks thrown at them because they suck so bad. so go make out with ur chad fagkroeger

[DARKREGIS]

What are you 12? your insults are pathetic XD

[tommymajor2003]

like a BOSS!

[skudstorm44]

great song from a great band..can't get better

[Reivin1]

It's on here how they got it. It was that a band member had a cold sore and Sully gave him hell about it. The next day the band member's cold sore was gone but Sully had one in the exact same spot so they told him he's been godsmacked. So they used the name.

[irishtothebone13]

best godsmack song

[yumipoer1]

what is the point in recording a blank picture and putting a high quality button????????????????

[AHTSvideo]

for the audio i guess

[ATROCITYXxX]

of course for the audio!!!LOL man...

[yozshura1234]

not for the audio.. just to get a better picture ofc :)

[nvleafs]

better audio quality

[patwqxr17]

they were originally an alice in chains cover band

[HandGunHarmony]

no he just got the name from the album dirt

[lilldudebigy]

its not larking dumbass, its larkin...shannon larkin, get it right!!!

godsmack rocks the best!!!!!

[zlopa7]

yeah....cool video.....one of the best ever.....

[nirvanakcdgkn]

iron maiden is a thing used to torture people. thats why they got that name.

and "godsmack" is not bad at all.

[FlyKicksYe]

i honestly dont give a fuck where they got they're name from does it even seriously matter? no it dosent the music they make does like if a band got the name lets say...iron maiden where do u think they got that from lolz band names are rarely self up so why care so much about it^^

[shorty95teddy]

Lol i dont get why ppl would put thumbs down on that, Its the truth! They Got it from a song called God smack! Look it up!!! Im not trying to diss godsmack, There my fav band and sullys my idol,

[LeVeL23Pr0]

their name is actually from something sully said i frget how it goes ut you can look it up

[GodsmackGr]

no man...they are big fans of alice in chains...and they have said in an interview that they actually taken their name from Alice in chains song...that one that sully said is true...but not the reason from they got their name...sry 4 my english

[LeVeL23Pr0]

oh word thanks dude

[GodsmackGr]

ye man he says that Godsmack was in studio with larking and something happened and Robie said to Sully that he had been godsmacked because larking was making fun off him...thats bullshit because in the early years of the band the drummer was Joe D'arco 19961997 and then Tommy Stewart 1996-2002

then came Larking...so the story that you say is imposible...

[BigC75061]

They knew Alice in Chains made that song but when they made the band name they weren't thinking of that song, Sully said one of his friends woke up with s coldsore and he got godsmacked, and the name stuck.

[GodsmackGr]

ok maybe..but i have heard somewhere that its from alice in chains..never mind..but you know that larking wasnt at the beginning...

[HandGunHarmony]

sully erna was looking thru his c.d's and seen the album dirt from alice in chains and passed across the song godsmack. loved the name and used it

[Sgthavoc12]

no thats not why lol where'd u hear that

[HandGunHarmony]

sully himself, theres a video around here somewhere..... he said the whole alice in chains thing and then he told some side story about how he got "godsmacked"

[Sgthavoc12]

well thats not exactly it the first thing u said. layne was a big influence on him and obviously he like the name godsmack but then the godsmacked thing is what it officially means to them now

[codyhusky1]

your right godsmack is alce in chains song the name was derived from them even the logo is almost the same..godsmack was a cover band playing in boston..playing AIC TUNES

[Sgthavoc12]

they weren't an AIC cover band, get ur facts straight faggot, the guitarist was in an alice in chains cover band. the whole band was never an alice in chains cover band u fucking cunt

[codyhusky1]

did you ever live in boston you fucking guyanese homo pedophile i did and saw them playing aic tunes at bills bar at fenway before they were popular you dick swallower

[ALABAMAKKK]

yeah man your wrong .. they were a aic cover band.. i saw them touring and playing in a club down south and talked to sully

[Th3OR1G1N4L]

youre fucking wrong, thats not where they got the name you dumb prick, you dont know shit about godsmack

[sims204]

best video ever

[JasmineAWSOME]

its good

[sisryc3]

Shine Down

[jimdadrummer]

actually they got there name from something totaly diffrent. it was karma . they were in the studio and sully had a cold soar on his lip and larkin made fun of him about it and the next day he came it with a cold soar in the same spot and there basses said that Godsmacked him thats where they got there name .. i knowkind of weird but wt ever

[MalevolentLyset]

I'm not calling you a liar or anything, I'm sure you know more about that than I do, but I do know for a fact that Sully in a pagan/wiccan. Wouldnt it have been Goddess instead of a singular god?

Just wondering.

[mello27]

well not realy i am wiccan same coven as sully and we also worship a god its part of the life cycle a god and a goddess

[motleycrue779]

whats a wiccan?

jw

[LeVeL23Pr0]

Wiccan is a religion

they are kinda like witchcraft

[johnsolderbrother]

I am Wiccan, hear me rawr!

[FilialWisdom]

I think the term I heard from a documentary was "everyone gets their Godsmack once in a while." Or some nonsense like that. It had nothing to do with Religion and the choice of worship, imo.

[jimdadrummer]

it might of been but it might be a little weird to have the name Goddesssmack...

[shorty95teddy]

They got there name from there favorite song by alice in chains, Theres eavun an interview where he says it.

[gothprimal]

a part of sully's song keep away......smack me in my mouth 200 times every other day

[GodsmackGr]

jindadrummer

how did Godsmack took their name when larkin was in them....larkin came after 2002

tommy was before him...lol

[breakinknucklesruler]

godsmack named their band after that alice in chains song

[bobboteh8th]

huh. alice in chains wrote a song called godsmack. godsmack wrote a song called shinedown. who's shinedown gonna name a song after?

[rouletteproductions]

Godsmack wrote a song called Shinedown years after the band had not only been together but found success with their first major studio album. It's total coincidence in this case.

[jessicalovescrue]

song kicks my ass!

[bloodpuddlescarred]

i love this song

[SakuraSasuke458]

Awesome :]

[slaybaughm]

who gives a shit get a life

[slayer3222]

after listening to amon amarth theres nothing better than some godsmack to relax =)

[cyberneticchaos]

Lol,the original is 4:52 min.Why did you cut of the beginning(and yes,I know this is a stupid comment).Such a great song.

[caiden2008]

:D awesome

[Budiczek87]

The best :)

[magraumsv]

Sunshine...sweet love my labor

Don't mind...I don't care no more

[tademons]

yeah christain metal band..whata great name for a christain band godsmack.ibanez ur playn

[cannibalcorpse135]

This song's a bit preachy, isn't it? I mean, I love this song, but "I still believe in immortal love, and I know there's someone above"? Before I ever heard this, I thought Godsmack was either a Satanic band, or some form of paganism.

[nnealley]

Well Sully is a practicing Wicca....

[Graceclaw]

Yea, thats why and its a pity =/ They could be so much more awesome w/o it

[ibanezwielder]

How could you think Godsmack is satanic? They're Christian Metal.

[foxpilot64]

actually they aren't silly, he's a wiccan. Last time I checked, Christians don't wear pentacles...haha and plus he's confirmed he is a pagan! Wiccans believe in God too, just not in the same way that Christians do and btw have nothing to do with Satanism.

[ibanezwielder]

yeah, sorry, i found that out two days ago after my friend who is supposedly godsmack's biggest fan told me they were christian metal and i should listen to this song.

[barichic393]

Excuse me? What do you think Paganism is? and just because this song is kinda preachy doesn't mean they ARE a christian band. You guys should really try researching for you start dissing other religions.

[cannibalcorpse135]

after having done my research, i have realized that Sully is Wiccan. I do know what paganism is, and im not dissing it, because i myself am a Wiccan

[barichic393]

I understand. I didn't mean to reply to your comment only. Just a misunderstanding. I am not specifically Wiccan, I'm just Pagan, so I know where you are coming from. It just sounded like you were relating Paganism to Satanic ritualisms (hopefully that makes sense :]). As in making them sound the same. I took offense. sorry.

[EternalLies]

Sully is a killer harmonica player. Great song, I love it!

[killjoy189]

not there best but good!

[skullodarkness13]

you dont like, listen to voodoo and i stand alone and you will see while i like em

[S7A1ND]

Yeah, Godsmack has great music but..........

....... I wish they would have picked a different name :o

---- but great song though

[kuyuletul]

the name means what goes around comes around and it's a fucking killer name....love it

[BlondexBunny333]

yeah, its an alice in cahins song too

fucking amazing

[Kynokeh]

what's wrong with the name

[daalman]

This band sucks ass. WTF listens to this crap and actually thinks it's good? You kids these days need to listen to real music. Not some watered down vanilla pop rock crap. Pffft.

[S7A1ND]

and who do you listen to daalman???

Queen, The Jackson 5, Beyonce, Justin Timberlake?!?!?

.... or maybe the Oak Ridge Boys or Britney Spears!

.... but my money's on Elton John!!!

-----Godsmack is awesome!!!!!

[poonhunter911]

...you forgot clay aiken

bahahahahaha

[thebionicbosom]

actually he listens to rap - not even deep rap just like the lame stuff that's supposed to be catchy. so i guess we overestimated him

[phobos144]

yeah it takes a while to start liking them but godsmack is kick ass no matter what

[marshall070809]

yeah man its cool, somme songs you have to hear more then once and then they eventually grow on you :P

[ACoupleTrees]

sorry guys i'm just not diggin this one. don't get me wrong i love godsmack. expecially voodoo, serinity, and I stand alone but this is just not one i'm feelin.

[jaredmt]

thats alright, i didnt like "I Stand Alone" when it first came out. but i think the more u hear these songs, the more u like them

[sottocarica]

i love this song godsmack rules

[picklesnorf101]

I would say it is a tie between this song and Voodoo for my favorite song by Godsmack man Sully rocks on the Harmonica if you hear the full song you'll know what I mean

[1badassbiotch]

ya this video cut out like a full min of sully playin harmonica.

[Ubrainscramble]

this is about my favorite song from these dudes . nice work.

[zackrocks089]

awesome love it

[TheElite711]

Gotta be my favorite Godsmack song ever in the face of the universe!! Freakin sweet!

[poppyl90]

Livin in sin is good too

[SlapphePikkur]

better without... lol

[badjester123]

this song is epic

[rjhart59]

This song is badass. I LOVE it. The music, the singing, the lyrics, everything, blends to make an awesome rock song that leaves ass holes thinking, "wtf was that?" and leaves the rest of us thinking,, "dude, another good song released." good ass song dude.

[badjester123]

it's godsmack, you have to expect that!

[Runwin2]
