I saw Henry do this live on tour and I looked up the song as soon as I got home and discovered the whole William Shatner album. Word of mouth at its best.
You know, nobody cares but yourself. You're only saying this to feed your ego and give yourself a feeling of comfort because you have a meaningless "opinion".
he may not be a great comedian but i just like the fact that behind the machoness of the intimidatting voice of black flag lies just a guy whos a bit human and is not afraid to act a bit dorky in front of an audience. I just like him..especially the whole 'this is so cool' business. I would do that too probably. Its just nice to see these guys are humans and not ' stone faced behemoths' like allot of hardcore singers try to be like these days
I wouldn't even label him a comedian just more like a hardcore bard who just happens to be a pretty damn funny guy and also interesting and wise, his spoken word is like a combo of everything plus its entertaining as hell.
You know, if you were to watch from just after "silent spear of death" on, without the "deep sea ninja" context, it just looks like he's having some kind of weird seizure on stage.
The question is would Henry do you, cause he has a pretty comprehensive checklist of what his woman should be, do and say. To say he's picky is an understatement.
He's looking for a smart woman who doesn't read children's books and actually has a working brain. If you think that's picky, you really must date some sad specimens.
Listen to the track "The Gay Thing" off of Rollins's album 'Think Tank'. It's hilarious, and also addresses all his views on sexuality. Here's a quote from it:
"If I was gay, there'd be no closet, you would never see the closet I came out of. Why? I would have burned it for kindling by the time I was 12. Because I know with all certainty in my mind, there is nothing wrong with being gay, and you know it."
I love it when he says that women are smarter and stronger than men and you hear all the girls cheering and he says 'listen to them' and makes that witch laugh. haha, so great.
hehe deep sea ninjas. Henry forever!!
