Stories Behind Songs….

I think they're about one girl because the songs are supposed to be relatable…. maybe there are stories though….

She's famous now is about Gwen Stefani.
So is She Has a Girlfriend Now. And Brand New Song.

And 'She Broke My Dick' by All.

I didn't know "She Has A Girlfriend Now" was about gwen…. Aaron said on myspace that he got the Idea from "Lyin' Ass Bitch"

It's not, I'm just messing around.

Isn't 'Snoop Dog, Baby' about the girl from The Goodwin Club? I have never been able to find anything about that band besides a few small mentions on old ska flyers.

I heard somewhere a story behind "The Set Up (You Need This)"

Apparently they couldn't think of a good title for the song and one of the guys at the record company was all like "Come on you guys, we need this let's get the setup" or something like that so they called it "The Set Up (You Need This)"

That's just what I heard though.

They talk about The Set Up on the 2nd commentary for the live dvd and it was something like what MAX just wrote.

that's probably where my friend heard it from.
I haven't watched the Live DVD that much.

I think I heard somewhere that they couldn't think of a chorus for "Scott's a Dork", so they just put that line in until they could come up with something else. I guess they never did! Then again, I could be totally wrong!

I heard that songs like Boss DJ, New York New York, Another Day in Paradise and Take On Me were written by someone else.

I dunno, could be all hear-say, but I kind of think I believe the rumor.

btw-before you all think I am being serious. Take the cock out of your ears and hear the sarcasm. 🙂

Thanks for the heads up!

That sentence was too subtle for me to realise it was a joke…

I figured

I probably wouldn't have noticed the sarcasm

They talk about that on the commentary for TSMGO.

And yes I have heard that commentary too many times. 🙂

I heard that Valerie is really about Val Garay, the guy who produced Cheer Up. Aaron reeeeaaaallly hated him. Has nothing to do with a woman named Valerie.

Well, since that's a DVD, I obviously must have heard it somewhere else. !lol

Jeanie, did you ever get a dvd player? You're the only person I know who didn't have one.

Nope. I really never saw the need. I honestly don't think I'd use it enough to make it worth spending money right now on it.

And your new name threw me off. I was like, who's this poser using Amy's avatar? !lol I like it though!

You really should get a dvd player. They're pretty cheap now.

Haha! I was starting to get that "cold shoulder" feeling from a few people on here. Maybe I should have said something about the name change 😀

It's weird, isn't it? That's why I used to randomly create new accounts, just to see what people would say to me.

What a trip.

I asked Dan in an email what Legend of Alan Guile vs. Peter Bones was about and I laughed when I read this:

"The title comes from final fantasy 7 on playstation. Scott and i were a little messed up, and made up our own names for all the characters… so Allen Guile is the main blond hero in the game and peter bones was the final baddie. since scott and i wrote most of that song, we got to name it… heh."

FF7 = Awesome.

Haha, yeah and everbody else would get blamed.

Also, FIF 7 = Expensive

Now I like that song even more.
FF7=awesomness

You can name Sephiroth in FF7?
I don't remember that.

You can't. Thats why you don't remember it. Think they meant just named them in their heads

…So basically, the song is called FF7? I never saw that one coming.

I know. But I don't really watch movies, just TV. And since I'm not home a lot, I like my VCR to tape the shows I can't see. If I got a DVD player, I would have to hook and unhook my VCR and it just seems like a hassle.

If you hooked it up right you wouldn't have too…

I'm not savvy technologically. I'm afraid! !lol

You should get a DVR, it's so much easier than taping stuff.

hey, If you don't want to buy a DVD player and you have an iPod & the live album then I could rip "you're all in this Together" to MPEG-4 and send it your way in parts….

Edit: never mind, I can't

She could just play the dvd on her computer…

not all computers can play DVDS…..

Most do, dont they?
All the laptops I've had do.

Damn, you ARE young.

I'm 18…

I've used tons of desktops, but I've never had a desktop.

I don't know if my computer at home plays DVDs. I suppose I could try it. My computer at work probably does, but that would probably be a little unprofessional! !lol

Yeah, they'd probably get mad.

Actually, they is me. But if a parent walked in while I was watching an RBF DVD, they'd probably wonder what the heck I was watching. I do have an abbreviated itunes library on my work computer, but I only listen to it when the center is empty and I can click it off at a moments notice.

How much longer are you working for the tutoring center?

I'm going back to teaching full time when school starts up in September. Until then, I'm still there. Even though I'm not getting paid, it's better than doing nothing! !lol
