(no subject)
i was reading my sister's LJ and came across this from a taking back sunday community:
Lead singer Jesse Lacey[of Brand New]had been best friends with then Taking Back Sunday guitarist/singer John Nolan (who has left the band) since grade school. Lacey's girlfriend at the time cheated on him with Nolan. John called Jesse, and the last words that Jesse spoke to him were, "You're as subtle as a brick on the small of my back so lets end this call and end this conversation" and hung up. That was the last time they spoke and then years later Brand New added it as lyrics to their song "Seventy Times 7" which is about what happened and his feelings toward Nolan. Taking Back Sunday then came out with the song "There's No 'I' In Team," which expresses John's side of the story. In "There's No 'I' In Team," he says, "What I can't regret, can't you just forget it?" which shows how he wants to get past was happened between them. In the bible, Jesus is asked how many times must a man forgive his neighbor... his reply is not seven, but seventy times seven. In the bible, seven is the number of completion. It seems as though, although the lyrics are quite an attack, there remains a willingness to forgive.
i <3 emo kids. lol
i always wondered why Brand New did that TBS song at the show i went to.
oh i finally bought the new TBS album and yeah....wtf happened? they got screwed royally when john left. they dissappointed me with their live show. but i enjoyed the hotness of adam.
it is kinda sad to hear these bands evolve to soft stuff just because that will sell. oh well, money does make the world go around.
