I BLASTED this song and a few others by The Cat Empire at Occupy Toronto, the place was LOVING them. Last night was the last night before we were expecting to be evicted, so we had a hell of a celebratory party.
Life is for living, not for having petty disputes as to whether or not something is underground, in other words. Live your life the way you want to live it. Not the lives the government, the TV, or the pretty little creatures we call models say you should live. Shop at second-hand shops, go out and play in the mud and don't care how people look at you. Be yourself
This friday all the crowd at the Olympia theater (Paris) sang Chariot's "Parararararara pa pa pa!" while waiting to leave the gig.. very nice concert, but two hours of the Cat Empire is not enough.. I missed so many songs!
Holy rollin nasty comments...they are a great band...who cares how popular they are or not? Music is supposed to evoke feelings but come on....let's not be haters. Kudos to the band....saw them at Waterfest in Oshkosh, Wi of all places....never thought I would ever be able to see them live....quite possibly the best live show musically I have ever seen....sooooooo...THANKS!!!!!
To all the obscure hipster kids: this isn't your band, this isn't my band. Stop referring to The Cat Empire as something too underground or misunderstood to be overly popular. Not every band that is well liked has sold themselves out, nor is it there intention to do so. This band shouldn't have to risk losing fans just because they become more popular. Get over yourself.
@Beeaffchen douche. they're pretty big in oz anyway. and jesus it doesnt matter how 'obscure' a band is you little prat, this song'd be just as good if everyone got to hear it
@Amoney69 it was a pretty dumb comment but he's not wrong if a band wants to make it big in Western World they have to sign with and get promoted by an American company... even all the big bands in Europe (including the ones with anti-USA lyrics) are signed with American companies.
The only reason why I heard of this band is because of my friend(Athena)when she started singing fishies one day.Thank you Athena now i love this band. ~Singapore
can i just say theres a realy easy way to get youtube songs....w/o all the mp3iiiify and shizz....its just aq add-on for firefox and it comes up on the youtube page and all really easy....
thank you, for bringing us the most amazing music we could have.
