...I was sitting in work early this morning listening to My War on my headphones. I had to shut it off since I was struck with the urge to throw my computer monitor through the window, lol. Had to switch to some OM to mellow out.
HAHAHAHAHAHA! I think most of us have had experienced that "destructo" urge when hearing "My War" the song especially...I do believe that is the most pissed-off song I've ever heard and certainly spun frequently when I've felt betrayed by friends....
My war! You say that you're my friend but you're one of THEM! THEM! THEM!!!!
This was a cool video that I'd never seen before. It was a little bit more interesting than things like TV Party.
Back in high school, I voted for "My War" to be my senior class song. Sadly, it didn't win. I couldn't tell you what won, but I'm pretty sure it wasn't as good as "My War."
I voted for SOD's "Chromatic Death" as class song....we got Van Hagar's "Dreams." Sad that jocks and princesses won that vote off a beloved rock band in one of its not-as-good moments. If they'd used "Chromatic Death" on the other hand... Sad to say, I'm a visionary ahead of my time...
