Against Me! - Reinventing Axl Rose (Acoustic)

Another song off their Acoustic EP

Lyrics:
We want a band that plays loud and hard every night
That doesn't care how many people are counted at the door
That would travel one million miles
and ask for nothing more than a plate of food and a place to rest
They'd strike chords that cut like a knife
It would mean so much more than t-shirts or a ticket stub
They'd stop at nothing short of a massacre
Everyone would leave with the memory that there was no place else in the world
And this was where they always belonged
We would dance like no one was watching
With one fist in the air
Our arena just basements
and bookstores across an underground America
With this fire we could light
Just gimme a scene where the music is free
And the beer is not the life of the party
There's no need to shit talk or impress
'Cause honesty and emotion are not looked down upon
And every promise that's made and bragged
is meant if not kept
We'd do it all because we have to, not because we know why
Beyond a gender, race, and class,
we could find what really holds us back
Let's make everybody sing
That they are the beginning and ending of everything
That we all are stronger than everything they taught us that we should fear

@cubbyblues Haha, back to "ignorant". Take my advice and go pick up a dictionary. Thanks for the laughs and keep being a twat! Later.

@cubbyblues Yet again, proof your an asshole. Don't be ashamed that you don't know how to really listen to a song. It must be hard considering GnR's didn't have any significant messages.

Let's make everybody sing, That they are the beginning and ending of everything, That we all are stronger than everything they taught us that we should fear!

well no shit this isn't a cover genius

[SteveBrownftw]

This is not really an "earlier version by Tom Gabel," it's from the Acoustic EP 7". The reason it's faster/higher pitched than normal is that whoever made the mp3 has a poorly set up turntable.

@thomasprince1 that's what i called it when i covered this song a couple times hah

[odbsmydogg]

I got all the acoustic ones off napster and they were the first against me I ever heard. In like 2000. Someone gave me the album and it pissed me off because it didn't sound like this. This shit still gives me goosebumps. Thanks for this.

@cubbyblues Wow, you would've finally been right about something, IF that wasn't sarcasm.

"Exactly. Retreat from an argument that you clearly lost. I have shamed you enough for one evening". Teehee, had to throw that in, because you're such a tool <3. Sayonara and keep the "intelligent expression" goin'!

[cubbyblues]

@ASFARtv Oh, OK, So when I say they are pop punk, that's an assumption. But when you say they're folk/punk, that's a fact. Gotchya.

*Note the sarcasm.

I'm done with this. I schooled all of you.

[ASFARtv]

@cubbyblues 1. He stated he wasn't a fan, therefore, you're WRONG. 2. Against Me! is a blend of folk and punk, yet again, you're wrong. 3. That is not a fact, its an ASSUMPTION, which, thus far, makes you wrong 3 times in just one statement. 4. Apparent: readily seen. We all see you arguing with people for over a span of a few months, which went beyond stating you're opinion, sooo I used it correctly, but you seem to be unable to grasp middle school level grammar. Intelligent expression, huh? =]
