Second Cup Café: O.A.R.

[MultiTomas789]

if a group is any good theyll sound better live, like dave and red hot chili peppers and weezer andf of course o.a.r.

[BlackRoseStar333]

thanks for talking at our graduation! Wootton ftw!

[mkrocc22]

i've been an o.a.r. fan since 99, i'm from cleveland i met them at OSU, seen them live 12 times. I think..... they just get better and fucking better!

[greeklikeme]

If they only would have done "That was a crazy game of poker" instead of the "hit" can you imagine how many new fans they would have gotten instead of playing the radio hit?

[nnjjiiu]

cd871, Agreed 100 percent. This turned me away from O.A.R and i was a fan for 8 yrs.

[cd871]

i hate this song.. im an oar fan, but i hate this song. this the song that is the epitome of selling out

[rlambert15]

[BeezQuixote]

woooooooooooooorrrd..... moco rocks!

[Quazisong]

Man... much respect for these guys, But 3 gutiars? Did one of their buddies just want to be in the band. This song is awesome, but no way needs two electrics G's. I guess they are playing on top of each other both turned down. Plus this guy's voice is so good it acts as an instrument also. Slim down the payroll fellows..It's tough times for us all. LOL

[Shinedes]

There are one electric guitar, then acoustic and bass guitar. This is normal band model. Becouse acoustic and electric guitar plays different parts, and the sound of them is different.

[t3hBMXn00b]

yeah they are great

and the 3rd guitar is the sax player

on a couple of songs he plays simple riffs on guitar

[dsnacks]

Thanks for clearing that up for Quazisong!

[cdickson01]

LIVE IS BEST!

[t3hBMXn00b]

amen seen them three times about to be four

[dgresh37]

saxophone in O.A.R. is my favorite it just pushes them over the edge to make them the best band in my opinion

[TaOpOcL462]

oh theres jerry hes on guitar lol

[190two]

i dont think so, which is depressing...one of the songs they make it to mainstream radio on doesnt include one of their best features...sad steriotype : (

[190two]

it needs saxophone....

[gehrke111]

and/or cowbell

you decide

[TaOpOcL462]

was jerry even there on stage

[t3hBMXn00b]

Jerry is playing guitar

[rebeltorebelbrotha38]

yeah so? did you not know jerry also plays guitar? theres no sax part in this so why not

[TaOpOcL462]

jerry also jams out with mike perkins in columbus ohio great small venues very personel got to hang with jerry briefley,then coincedently while in SC won tickets off radio and got a meet and greet with the whole band. gret group of guys.jus hope record label doest "whore"them out and mark sustains great vocals

[DancingAnts41]

yeah no shit

[jearlen41]

good song and all, deffinately not as good as their older albums tho, i love them

[jamesdigity]

i like there old stuff better like city on down, or about an hour ago

[bziggy2889]

So I like this song and all, lyrically its definitely Marc, but I like their other stuff better, I'm just sad that now that they're getting famous, this song and L&M are the face of the band.

They need to get a song on the radio that at least has Jerry doing his thing.

[limegreendarlene]

i love loooove oar and this song!! i saw them last june. they r awesomw live!!!!Mark R. put his guitar pick in my hand at the end of the concert. come back to vancouver sooon!!!!!

[theMANny74747474]

OAR is amazing, but i dont like this song. It's too boy bandish. Some people say they're just givin in to the radio, i think they're trying to get away of people saying they're a dave matthews wannabe, which they're not, at all.

[NickNakNickus]

Is it possible to be a fan of music and not necessarily a particular band. OAR is a great band. However, if they make music not appealing to me, I am not going to claim I enjoy it just because I may be a fan. Why, that woud be borderline retarded. Thats just my opinion carlose0318.

[carlose0318]

ok yea i know what u mean and i respect that

[timmahthomas30]

i agree carlose0318.....i cant stand that...oar is great shit....marc and the boys are friggin amazing and all their shit goin back to the wanderer is awesome....live and studio

[carlose0318]

i hate it when ppl say their new stuff isn't as good. if you're a real o.a.r. fan you love all the stuff!

[lesta09]

the new stuffs fine but this has no chance against songs like whose chariot, crazy game of poker, wonderful day, untitled.....i could go on and on!

[carlose0318]

yea hah i know what u mean

but for me, somedays if im in a certain mood i might wanna hear their new stuff.

but yea nothing beats the original o.a.r.

hearing them play those live is really something else!

[mickeyromell]

i love this band but this song is different then there others

[angel81496]

I LUV THIS SONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[NewWorldPlague]

Check out our acoustic cover of this. It's not near as good as this but it's music. Kind of....

[killertomato91]

wow. absolutely moving :)

[YoungBlowDaKid]

thats why their the best band

[LovelyMemories99]

I love this band =D. I also love how they never sing their songs the same every time.

[oceansmist]

all groups sound better in concert! I just saw them in concert on Fort Hood yesterday and they were awesome.

[thornrob]

i think they sound better live than on albums, for the most part

[nickspat]

That's what is great about live performances, if I wanted the same as the music video, I'd just play the CD. Real bands always sound different in person-no lipsyncing

[DCNative12]

isnt why they are awsome

[lordsoftheunderworld]

they sound different live than they do in the music video
