Seether - Quirk

[Thegiddykiddy]

"fake it" wasn't actually meant to be on the album. it was just a bit of fun and digs at the fake, plastic people, but it was that catchy they put it on the playlist!! i'm so glad they did cause it was the first song, and the only song i heard on the radio by Seether in Australia... that is until now, triple m. plays "tonight". I love them!!! :) <3

[TheTabulater]

This is beautiful...

[joneboy217]

im faking my life right now, i can relate to it

[AtomicPunk150]

Hate to tell you guys but its not about Amy. There's info about it on the band's website. This is about all the Stars (meaning actors, musicians, all those) Who dont really act like themselves so the can be famous. They therefore, Fake It. Shaun also comments on the song they are not going mainstream, but he does enjoy "pop" songs, his definition of "pop" meaning a catchy song you can sing along to.

[AkeelaPyro]

@AtomicPunk150 Then his definition of pop would fit like half or more of the 500 songs on my iPod. XD. Though tbh it's all catchy enough to sing along to. XD

[spike100000000000]

im sorry, but fake it is far better, and this is what i think

[hikarikaiya26]

I think I like both versions of this song. I'll comment back when I've listened to it a couple more times.

[METALTIP99]

i dont like it lol

[wrman123]

Original Fake It is better

[brettfavre727]

@wrman123

this is actually the original

[wrman123]

@brettfavre727 oh so i didn't know that. My mistake ...

[xXxThreeDaysGrace100]

hehe! i get to see these guys again in 2 days!

[DestructiveMomoKing]

I think he looks like Johnny Depp.

[whosseThis]

IIs this richard cheese.lol

[ethrstub]

from what ive heard this is actually about pop music and "hip hop" and all that stuff. More specifically about people and bands that go around flashing money, diamonds, and women in videos and whatnot. Basically about the fake face of pop culture. That is why this song is so amazing because of the poppy music, the whole song has the most amazing sarcastic feeling to it... anyway that was always my thought on it

[ethrstub]

@ethrstub and on top of that shaun was asked in an interview if there would be any retaliation to amy's song "call me when your sober" and he said that he wouldnt do that, BUT i will refuse until the day i day that fuck me like you hate me isnt about her lol

[Elizabeth22413]

@ethrstub What an astute analysis of the song! Totally agree, based on all the interviews I've seen in which

Shaun discusses all the issues that he & the guys find so troubling about the entire "pop culture" scene &

the blind worship of all that revolves around it. 

[famineSSJ4]

hmm. for some reason i thought i had heard on MTV that shaun wrote this song kind of as a joke in rehab because he wanted to see if he could write a song that "strippers could dance to." that would explain why it is more "pop-ish" but then again who trusts MTV? It's a good song nonetheless.

[FatherGiraffe]

this is just "fake it" but alittle more accoustic... whats the difference?

[poison7in7disguise]

@FatherGiraffe Probably just the lyrics... it sounds like an early version of Fake It.

[pinatalalqa]

@poison7in7disguise it is a fake it demo = early fake it version...

[saryrock1]

parece kurt cobain

[mu86neer]

hahaha... U A FUCKING JERK...HAHAHAHA

[ThatDisturbedBoy]

@mu86neer hahaha... Your grammar... HAHAHAHA

[mu86neer]

[ThatDisturbedBoy]

[facemask12]

gayyyy

[KurisuchanTaiki]

6 fans justin

[WelcomeToTheShow1]

I like portions of this better and portions of Fake It better but I like both songs. This one is better though in a lot of regards

[thelosttool]

i've heard many times that it's actually about one of his ex's so who knows, more importantly who cares it's a good song and a great band

[silentfaith1]

4/4 videos have had beib posts. stop talking about the loser plz and thank you ^_^

[BloodyGirRawr]

Fake It is my favorest song ever but I gotta say this is a pretty frickin' awesome demo. You rock balls, Shaun Morgan!

[minhtri7821]

4 dogs dislike this

[minhtri7821]

BEST of the BEST

[GdziE100isz]

His voice is so BEAUTIFULL!!!

[negativeapologies]

Shaun wrote the song about a strip club he went to. or so he says.

[fiaman2]

this is seether its a demo to all the dumbasses who didnt know

[dukes1979]

it wasn't quirk it's calle FAKE IT!! duh!!

[HeavenDenies909]

@dukes1979

its an early version of fake it, hense the poorer quality of recording

[3cn1ght]

@dukes1979

Yea it's a demo, but also it was originally called "Quirk" because singer and fuckin songwriter Shaun Morgan said it sounded quirkey, meaning kinda cheesy, but it made it on the album and they decided to change the name

[youngfirefly]

seether has all these songs? I don't get it. why not put it on a cd. They are due for an album!!!!!!!!!!

[1stGhela]

sounds like squirk,,,,

[windson7]

the lyrics dont matter if they can sing and the music's good.

[mtkw08]

im so glad they decided to change it up and do a better version

[BOBBOTHECASUALTIE]

Well i used too, lmao

[graffitionthefloor]

omg i like this one more

[BOBBOTHECASUALTIE]

i look just like the lead singer. haha weird.

[LIVElifeLOVErock]

@BOBBOTHECASUALTIE Ah, no you dont.

[sexykarebear]

this song is awesome i love it and seether rules ! you can talk shit about being a sell out or whatever your accusing them of but after all is said and done....they still kick ass!!! I agree with "undeadgamer0" their not sellouts his voice is sexy ass hell and they kick ass!

sexy Karebear~aka~^A^eroHoteeee

[RyzeXXable]

I like this song its really good

[YumYumYoMum]

this is seethers worst song tbh. its so fucking mainstream. i really hope they dont sink to this money grubbing shit in the future. btw im talking about the finished version. the reason i like them so much is because they 'seemed' not to care about the money so much, like a real fucking band. i just hope this is a one off.

[VogtTD]

oh boo hoo it's mainstream. You're really quick to judge a bands intentions with no inside knowledge of their inner thoughts. Seems to me this song was about his relationship with Amy. I don't know what's so mainstream about this? Good bands evolve their sound album to album.

[AJlord1]

@VogtTD its about society selling out and that now adays if you want something all you need is a good lie and some money

[VogtTD]

@AJlord1 Perhaps you're right. I don't know. The point is everyone is so quick to judge artists as going mainstream because they have evolved their sound. Personally I don't listen to bands that sounds the same album after album after album. That just shows a complete lack of creativity and artistry.

[undeadgamer0]

Actually, Shaun said in an interview he wrote this song and did the music video the way they did to MOCK hollywood, the fakers, the sellouts, and mainstream music. This song was made as a joke, and that's not my interpretation, that's what Shaun said XD

[TitleWave333]

@undeadgamer0 Got that right.

[VogtTD]

@undeadgamer0 It doesn't matter what the songs is about. I wasn't arguing that.

[YumYumYoMum]

@undeadgamer0 aqnd in so, wrote a mainstream song :S good job?

[RyzeXXable]

tru Very tru

[3cn1ght]

@VogtTD

I disagree that everyone has to think every single song that Seether makes is about Amy Lee. this doesn't even sound fuckin close to being about Amy Lee, it sounds like how it was later percieved in the music video, that its ABOUT mainstream music, and rappers, and MTV, and how it's all fake. It's being sarcastic and aimed towards people who act like something they're no, hence the name fake it.

[VogtTD]

@3cn1ght When the fuck did I say that everyone has to think that? I simply stated my own interpretation on the song. Stop reading peoples comments selectively.

[axelrudipel]

@VogtTD It's actually about how artists fake music like Ke$ha and Justin Bieber and so on.

[6thxfinger]

@VogtTD this song is actualy about record lables that wouldnt take seether in when they came to america from south africa. but your kinda rite, it sounds like its about amy.

[imdifferentfromother]

@VogtTD it actualy was abot amy, he even admited it, and call me when your sober by evanecence was about him, they both kept going back and forth at each other

[VogtTD]

@imdifferentfromother Pretty sure it was just this one song about Amy. Then he left it at that.

She's a dumb bitch to complain about his alcoholism when she knew going into the relationship. Besides, she's a party girl too. Just watch the dvd anywhere but home.

[imdifferentfromother]

@VogtTD breakdown was also about amy, and i already know that shes a party girl, its pretty obvious when shes drunk on stage at a concert almost falling off the stage like she did at the chevele show i went to a couple years back, hes no angel but amy isnt as innocent as she likes to lead people to think either

[Bromthebard]

@VogtTD They do, a good example is Metallica, every single album sounded completely different from the previous.

[AJlord1]

@VogtTD this wasnt about amy it was acutally about people who fake their way to the top and pretend to be something to get noticed to get famous. amy might be one of those things but the intent was never for the song to be about her. quick fact other than that i agree with this not being mainstream and its just their musical evolution

[VogtTD]

@AJlord1 Jesus I made that comment a year ago and people are still replying to it...

[AJlord1]

@VogtTD at least it wasnt a super negative response.

[robertedinhanssen]

@YumYumYoMum They have to think about the money, if else they won't make enough to bother keep playing

[YumYumYoMum]

@robertedinhanssen Wow. So your saying people shouldnt make music unless theyre being paid? Your a fucking tool. 99% of all good music started out as garage bands being paid shit all, or nothing. For real bands, money is just a bonus to being able to share music with the world.

[YumYumYoMum]

@YumYumYoMum and im not saying seether are sellouts, im saying this song is a low moment. too poppy for my liking.

[ryno9263]

@YumYumYoMum it does not matter if it is in your liking. if you dont like it...go do better. They play what THEY like not what YOU want to hear.

[muahaha60]

@YumYumYoMum have you even read robertedinhanssens comment? xD if a band doesn't have enough income, they wont be able to live out of it ...

[robertedinhanssen]

@YumYumYoMum please calm down xD all I'm saying is that a professional bands have to earn enough money to keep it as a profession, if else, they would have to get a normal job, and they'd be too busy to go on tours, making albums and that stuff.

[skybutton96]

ummm dumbass? I went to see Seether in concert at a FREE SHOW, and they smashed their EXPENSIVE GUITARS!! Obviously if they were as greedy for money as most other bands are, they wouldnt be doing a free show in the first place, not to mention smashing their expensive equippment just because they wanted to put on a good show! Get a clue, dumbass!

[sup7300]

@YumYumYoMum yeah why should they care about money. its not like its their job or anything. (rolls eyes)

[undeadgamer0]

If you followed Seether at all, you'd realize it was made to be mainstream in the first place. Shaun said he wrote it to MOCK the way other artists sellout and create mainstream "FAKE" videos. FAKE IT.

[undeadgamer0]

The interview's floating around Youtube somewhere if you really think they wrote this song as a sellout. If that were their intentions, every song on the CD, and thereafter would have been like this...

[YumYumYoMum]

@YumYumYoMum I love seether, i just dont think this song is worthy of sucking the lint out of the creases of my nut sack.

[flashbak2theyayo]

its a DEMO...not the final cut

[america175]

how fake it is way better

[girl8654]

This is the demo of it.When they were still coming up with it.

[dawnbeforedead]

I like this song better than fake it 'cause its more raw and has some alternate lyrics. but well I love seether!

[RASMProductions]

i definetly like Fake It better but the lyrics are great just not the voice

[lukeeatscock]

Cuz it aint edited as much i suppose.

[seetherkid1]

shauns awsome and nice remix!

[JenK1972]

Oh My ! I am loving this song!!

[Shadowdrak5]

His voice sounds so different in this, and this song is AWSOME! Better than Wind up's Version

[xSOFUKKiNGWHAT]

o-m-g, i love this song! *-'<2

[powerlight13]

and retard can break a stake in half.

[gonnamakeyoulol]

wow this is good i must say i totlay doubted you

[LuffieJJ]

I love the yeah f*ck 'em all part!

But I like the other one better I think...

[humanpeople420]

i like these lyrics better but i dont like

the vocal effect in the chorus.

[aphsknight74]

Same here.

[TheWho1978]

I like these lyrics better.

[SeetherOtaku]

damn shaun's voice is so beautiful!

[westeh]

@SeetherOtaku ......Did you really have to type that ? Having a moment were we ?
