@Keyc94 the story behind this song is that he wrote it for his sister, who was dieing from cancer. now don't quote me on this, because this is just what i've heard
Got to hang out with Scooter at the studio. He showed up to record some tracks when we were recording our record. Such a nice guy, but he has a lot issues to deal with in his life. A lot of family health problems.
You guys are crazy, I talk Scooter periodicaly and I can assure you a) Scooter's sister is not dead b) Scooter didn't have a heroin addiction but he did have a drinking problem and c) go buy the new album because it's amazing.
These guys have been around for over 20 yrs believe that or not. Off and on of course. I'm 30 and still have this whole album on my Ipod. Dude is a tortured soul no doubt and you feel that shit in his lyrics. Hope he curbed that heroin addiction cause he's got skills
He never sings songs just like they are recorded on the CD. He changes it up and sings how he wants to. Love you Scooter...................you are beautiful.
@Evarose135 & Tommydudez Yes, Scooter wrote this song about his sister Jennifer when he found out she had cancer. Also, a lot of the material that he wrote for the album, "A Different Kind of Pain" was inspired by his sister and he even wrote and recorded a lot of material in her bedroom at their parent's house. Look up "Year of the Spider" and "A Different Kind of Pain" on Wikipedia and it explains some more.
@TRXDOUGY None of them are from 5FDP. If you are speaking about the guitarist playing all the leads, that is Terry Balsamo. He is currently with Evanescence and has been since the absence of Ben Moody, who was the original lead guitarist for the band. The other guitarist is Kelly Hayes and last I saw him was in the band Allele. I do say though Terry and Zoltan look quite similar.
@tbellezzo Are you guys going blind? Notice he's got no hair uptop, he's been going bald! Of course he's going to shave. Wouldn't want to see him with long hair just on the sides and shiny uptop would you ? lol. geesh
That`s so unbelievable! How he feels, sings and bleed this Song! That what Music is about. You have to feel it and not just Sing a Song that a Manager or Someone else wrotes for you!
It must be your own Biography! And Scooter did this so perfect!
When heaven's not Far away and ugly were written about HIS illness.
But this was written about his SISTER'S illness. You can tell Scooter was about to burst into Tears...and holy shit Terry's Lead gives me chills everytime I hear this.
Ok this song is entirely about scooter's sister suffering from terminal cancer... however scooter himself does suffer from chrones disease however it isnt bad anymore.
Chron's disease is an inflammation of the digestive or intestinal tract. I wasn't aware Scooter suffered from this? I always though this song hit him hard because of his sister.
AMEN!!! My sister introduced this song to me. I've always loved Cold. This song has a new meaning to me since she told me it makes her think of me. I love it!!!
Scooter was probably one of the most kind-hearted people in the music industry. Loved his family, loved his fans, loved his music. Couldn't ask for a better artist.
I saw Cold recently, thinking it was their "farewell' tour...but I was wrong...they have a new album dropping this fall I can't wait. Had an opp. to see The Killer and the Star. Not bad...would have to hear their studio shit to really get a feel for them...
They are on a farewell tour. They got back together just for this last time around. Scooter left to pursue another project called The Witch, but it flopped. No idea what's in the works for him now.
Thats not true. The Witch didnt flop, its just been renamed a few times first to When November Falls and now its called The Killer and The Star. Their actually going on tour with Cold and their album should be dropping in a couple months. You should check them out the music is awesome.
btw, Raurie4, i feel sorry that you are kinda new to the band. I have been listening to them for well over a decade, and they have been great all 10 years. i suggest buying everything you can from them lol.
i worked at the hard rock live today... they have a bunch of autographed pics of bands who have performed there, but no Scooter Ward photo!!....believe it or not-i talked to the boss about that!.....cool pic of maynard however....
Could you show a bit of respect for scooters efforts please? hes a very respectful person and I highly doubt that he would judge your singing in a bad way if you went up and sang in front of all those ppl.
Don't get me wrong, I think he's a great singer. I'm just saying it looks like he's holding back. Maybe his throat hurts or he loses control at a certain level, I don't know, but he's clearly not pushing the vocals.
Still favorited though as they still sound great on stage.
Sounds so good :D
