I hate when people say their high, drunk, etc. and they enjoy a song. The Darkness is epic and Justin Hawkins is one of the most talented men in the music industry. If you have to get "fucked up" in order to simply enjoy their music, I certainly feel sorry for you.
LOVE the pipes!!!! ugh.. I'm from Alma, MI and we have the Highland Festival every year and every time I hear the pipes, I want a piper, now! lol.. love The Darkness..
somehow this song remembers me Amazing - Aerosmith
hahahah
the progression on 2:02 > 1, 2, 3, 4 (F#, G#m, A#m, B) is almost the same as that one on the end of the song Amazing (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 5, 4 - C, Dm, Em, F, G, Am, G, F)
Mr. Justin Hawkins, Mr. Dan Hawkins, Mr. Frankie Poullain and - last but not least- Mr. Ed Graham you are expected back very warm-heartedly in a years time TOPS!! <3 THX for last night's concert!! <3 FRIDAY NIGHT! (and next time plz include hazel eyes :) )
Can't wait to see them live... Seen some clips and wish they sang it this way in concert but can appreciate that Justin has to preserve his voice... Something I've learned from singing away with the 2 CDs blasting in my car hahaha
@Fl4dd3rm0uz Wish I'd been there haha! And I know it seems that way but he doesn't sing as extreme as in the recorded versions because he has to sing so many songs all in one go in a concert and has more than one concert too like but I've seen live footage of this and other darkness songs and he kind of takes it easy compared to the recordings.. It's still cool the way he does it don't get me wrong but I'd just love if he sang it virtually like he does in the recorded versions.. So amazing!
@seanjosephhayes hmm I have to admit that could be. The band had me so distracted with their awesome stage moves that I might have missed it.... But that also explains why I could sing along ^^ It also makes sense... I haven't noticed Matthew Bellamy doing the same though ( Muse - if you know them ;)) so I guess it ought to be possible to sing gigs and records "full throttle". Do you know whether Justin has had singing lessons and if so for how long?
@Fl4dd3rm0uz I wouldn't consider Muse's stuff as hard to perform at full welly as The Darkness's recording and some of the notes Justin hits :-).. Nice to see someone who isn't stubborn and can see that they mightn't be correct despite their initial thoughts :-).. I don't know mate but I don't think so in my own opinion... In an interview he said he'd been touring (pubs and clubs) since 14 so I reckon he just found his own voice and what a voice!
once u have started there is no turning back. a little 10 year old girl was raped and murderded in 1945. her body was not found until 1947. then a boy last week read this and did not copy and paste this message. the dead girl appeared in his room haunting him and killed him. if you do not copy and paste this onto 10 vidoes in 30 minutes the dead girl will apear in your room tonight and haunt you and kill you.
This song makes me so happy! I remember seeing these guys when I was a teenager and he flew in on a giant pair of breasts. I thought it was hilarious.
@corneliuswonder yeah dude, im so sick of songs about girls with blue eyes! im so in love with this song. i have hazel eyes and this song makes me happy :)
@u6115566 no its not you're retarted plz go commit suicide and remove your comment first ;) you don't know shit about chinese style so stfu and die and don't forget to delete comment first. :)
@rockersince1995 their not underrated, they had their time just like every other band, except their time was in the wrong generation and wasnt long enough to be recognised as much as they deserve!
@rockersince1995 The album One Way Ticket To Hell...and Back was underrated because of some of the songs were just boring. Am really glad to hear the original members(without Richie the bighead.!) agreed to reborn the Darkness and are recording the third album. :-) Justin Hawkins rules.!
@rockersince1995 fuck ya bro, these guys kicked ass. Fell in love with them when I first saw their single on MTV way back, and still love em. This is what rock is supposed to be like, unlike the new "modern" rock where there's no showcasing of any talent. (guitar, drum, bass solos)
@rockersince1995 i wouldnt really call them a underrated band .... practically everyone i know knows "i belive in a thing called love" or "dont let the bells end" ...
They're now called Stone Gods. Don't have Justin Hawkins though. Check out Magdalene Street. Amazing song, especially if you like Sister Golden Hair and Hey Hey What Can You Do.
@easports771 lol are you serious? RHCP is alright but Justin is a better guitar player than John Fagsciante and you can't even compare the singing because the RHCP vocals sound like the fecal droppings of a crack head. I can tell you are a 12 yar old boy and a dumb fuck at that so please die and realize that Chad Smith sucks dick please. Fuck you.
@postmanjones chad smith isn't actually a bad drummer really, he is just as good as ed graham was. frusciante is undoubtedly not as good as justin but he can still sing. anthony keidis is the only shit member of rhcp
