To the people finding the 'arrow to the knee' bullshit funny, I've got one I'd like to share. I used to play Skyrim, but then I took a vagina to the dick.
tonight on new years eve (twenty eleven) i discovered The Shins from watching this awesome chicks dreadlock and art videos! im not sure what her name is i think its somthin like skyrenae but she also goes be smerfet ;) so thanx smerfet!
@Mohoss18 i know what you mean then listen to it again and its like ahh im not completely mindfucked search different songs to find more mindblowingness. like the first time i heard so high by rebelution after a damn good joint. it was top ten best moments alone that is.
@forsurenoob i meant in regards to people being fucked up if they use illegal substances to listen to music, it was obvious when i said different things, different people.
@forsurenoob what are you on about? People different to you take drugs to enjoy music more, that's all there is to it. Drugs (the illegal ones) obviously don't do much for you and that's you. That's all, not everyone's fucked up because they do something you don't.
There is no songwriter I respect more than him. It's no coincidence that every project he jumps on turns out to be amazing.
I'm actually working on music influenced by Mercer and his genius. I'd really appreciate to hear what you like-minded individuals think of it. I have a new music video up on my channel if any of you are interested or have a free couple of minutes. Thanks!
@baruchale there are waaaaaay better acid songs haha. like life during wartime by te talking heads, or three imaginary boys by the cure. those are sick ass songs to listen to while frying. this song wouldn't even be able to hold your attention on acid haha
oooh, this song takes my breath away, puts me a chill mood, but also manages to put me in a happy mood at the same time. i love this song so much :D the intro, the beat etc is like nothing.else. <3
this is awesome. makes me want to take a couple bong rips, i mean im pretty drunk, but its just not the same as far as really enjoying music is concerned. Being drunk more than anything just makes it difficult to type, which is a pain in the ass.
ugh i hate the cover of this album it bothers me...its like what the heck is it that it looks kinda sick..though i LOVE the music so dont get me wrong on that part.
I'd queued up the latest two of The Shins albums in my playlist as I'd never heard them. I'd heard Inverted World about a billion times though. When it played this song, I actually looked over to my laptop to check and make sure I hadn't accidentally put a Verve Pipe in my playlist. Then I went to Youtube to see if anyone else had commented about it. xD
@VBAadmin He means weed versus meth/crack/cocaine/heroin etc
There is a huge chemical difference. And a huge difference in the effects they have on your body. THC and CBD (which are found in weed) are not harmful. Meth/crack/cocaine/heroin etc. are extremely harmful.
@Mohoss18 I interpreted the post as a comparison between chemical synthesis and extraction (e.g., tub vs. nature). THC is harmful, but CBD is not as bad; all drugs (excluding most vitamins/minerals) inherently do damage to humans in some way.
While the Cannabis genus (i.e., THC, CBD, etc.) may occur naturally, so does the Coca genus (i.e., cocaine/crack) and Papaver somniferum (i.e., opium [i.e., morphine, codeine, etc.]). Oftentimes, Cannabis is also bred to produce unnaturally-high THC levels.
@VBAadmin no judgement those plants chemicals exist as a good life escape if people wanna do it let em do it why must humans try and control others you gotta be fucked saying you wanna help em. if you do leave em alone they know what their doing feeling good living dangerously. weed is #1 thought i dont touch the yuckies
W kółko i w kółko, ten kawałek wciąga i uzależnia:) czasami zaczynam swój dzień i kończę z tą piosenką:) przez całe 8-9 godzin na okrągło:)i nic na to nie mogę poradzić:)
I cant get this freaking song out of my head i have been listening to it for it seems like 3 days straight and i just have to keep listening to it over and over again
The shins are truly a unique band, with every song seeming similar to the other but each unique and identifiable. My parents were going to take me to a concert right before they broke up, but we were booked, so my parents were sad, and now, so am I.
Well, im high again.
