this song is about alcohol and relationships. the loss of the self and justification of drunkeness in social situations. the live version will always suck without two singers, three guitarists, and a dedicated cricket sample.
yo darcy couldnt agree with you more ..last may i seen deftones at the house of blues with about 400 people and that was better than any tool perfect circle show...and the only reason he sounds bad is because the sound quality..go see them live and get in the middle of the acoustics of up fron like me and you will be in aww of his voice
its not exactly about sounding awesome voice-wise, but more for giving the fans a wicked experience...go to a few shows like a hardcore fan and make sure your front row at all times...then say shit about his voice.
I'm a fan of the Deftones, but man, Whats up with Chino botching his lyrics abn singing off key. Sounds better in the album though. My favorite song off this album
in chino's defense, this was recorded in the winter of 2006 about 8 months before saturday night was released. this was one of the first times they played this song live, although the vocals sound very off key i think they were better on the overall soundscape of the song in this live version than they were on the album...i mean seriously, what the fucks up with those crickets on the studio track?
Actually he was much better in his early days now Chino has reaped the effects of too much smoking, drinking, and especially his weight gain. His weight is responsible for the shortness of breath he has and then when he forces the notes to much his throat gets all horse. He lost alittle weight and his ability to hold notes last alittle longer now. He is doing better now with the minor weight lost.
duran it's not just that. Saturday Night Wrist took a long time because he has had problems with his throat for the longest. Look at his health. Yes he kicked the drug habit and got fat (heance the meaning of this song) but also hes has been getting bigger anyway slowly from album to album. Some singers like Aretha can do well bigger some whom mostly have to make the transition to weight gain usually are less as efficient in breathing techniques.
ok... chino doesn't sound very appealing here, but i have seen him perform this song twice. once in an instore performance and just recently at their headlining show... and both shows were amazing. chino has a uniquely sexy voice and can howl with the best of 'em. regardless of his weight... and either way anyone who knows DEFTONES knows that chino always puts on weight pre touring and loses it during. not a big deal...
actually if you want to know the facts ! this video does the band no justice i seen them last week and they sounded even better live , to be honest it was the best show i ever seen and im not just saying that because deftones are my fav band but these guys are vary fucking good at what they do, and this song is fucking awsome ty,,to all the real deftone fans out there this is for you!
cant agree more. i saw them in 06 @ TOC and i saw them 3 days ago in NYC. The NYC was the best show ive ever been to. You cant go by fan recordings when it comes to the Deftones. At small venues its so loud and crazy its the best shit ever. They sounded incredibly last Saturday and Chino sang "sexy back" best show ever.
i saw these guys on family values tour 06 at star-wood ... hate to say it but i wsnt that impressed, i dont know maybe it was just an off night or something
i've seen them live but in chino's defense i think what he's doing is he changes the song a bit. It would be boring if he sings the song just as it is on the record, if that's how u like them then why see them live and just rock out at home with them on your speakers! I've also read somewhere that he sheds the fat everytime he's on a tour because it can get gruelling on the road and performing most nights.
great song but i'd hate to hear it live. and i'm as big a deftones fan as it gets, but any time i see a live performance of theirs, chino seems like he's either too drunk to remember the words or he just doesn't care.
I don't see how Chino's weight could be any problem. If your a Deftones fan you would'nt give a S*#% about their appearance. Just the great music they're still making!
i have the track on my computer (studio version). i was wondering if anyone knew the lyrics. another rumored title for the new album is Saturday Night Wrist. message me if anyone knows a link to the lyrics.
That's one of mi fav songs here's the lyrics: http://www.sing365.com/music/lyric.nsf/Beware-The-Water-lyrics-Deftones/083188DF69AD5190482571AA004058B0
