Nickelback "Figured You Out"

This has always been one of my favorites from Nickelback. Love the lyrics and its got a great tempo.

Taproot "Breath"

I purchased this CD a few weeks ago for the song "Poem". This song is now becoming a favorite, I love sound, the lyrics, guitar, its all there.
Enjoy

Queens Of The Stone Age "No One Knows"

I love the the guitar hook in this song and as always Dave Grohl on drums is just killing them.



We get some rules to follow
That and this
These and those
No one knows

We get these pills to swallow
How they stick
In your throat
Tastes like gold

Oh, what you do to me
No one knows

And I realize you’re mine
Indeed a fool of mine
And I realize you’re mine
Indeed a fool of mine
Ahh

I journey through the desert
Of the mind
With no hope
I found low

I drift along the ocean
Dead lifeboats in the sun
And come undone

Pleasently caving in
I come undone

And I realize you’re mine
Indeed a fool of mine
And I realize you’re mine
Indeed a fool and mine
Ahhh

Heaven smiles above me
What a gift there below
But no one knows

A gift that you give to me
No one knows

Eminem "Love The Way You Lie"

This one has really grown on me. The combination of Eminem's vocals and Rihanna's chorus is just great. It's actually a cool video too with Megan Fox and Dominic Monaghan.



Just gonna stand there
And watch me burn
But that's alright
Because I like
The way it hurts
Just gonna stand there
And hear me cry
But that's alright
Because I love
The way you lie
I love the way you lie
I love the way you lie

I can't tell you what it really is
I can only tell you what it feels like
And right now there's a steel knife
In my windpipe
I can't breathe
But I still fight
While I can fight
As long as the wrong feels right
It's like I'm in flight
High of a love
Drunk from the hate
It's like I'm huffing paint
And I love it the more that I suffer
I sufficate
And right before im about to drown
She resuscitates me
She fucking hates me
And I love it
Wait
Where you going
I'm leaving you
No you ain't
Come back
We're running right back
Here we go again
It's so insane
Cause when it's going good
It's going great
I'm Superman
With the wind in his bag
She's Lois Lane
But when it's bad
It's awful
I feel so ashamed
I snap
Who's that dude
I don't even know his name
I laid hands on her
I'll never stoop so low again
I guess I don't know my own strength

Just gonna stand there
And watch me burn
But that's alright
Because I like
The way it hurts
Just gonna stand there
And hear me cry
But that's alright
Because I love
The way you lie
I love the way you lie
I love the way you lie

You ever love somebody so much
You can barely breathe
When you're with them
You meet
And neither one of you
Even know what hit 'em
Got that warm fuzzy feeling
Yeah them chills
Used to get 'em
Now you're getting fucking sick
Of looking at 'em
You swore you've never hit 'em
Never do nothing to hurt 'em
Now you're in each other's face
Spewing venom
And these words
When you spit 'em
You push
Pull each other's hair
Scratch, claw, bit 'em
Throw 'em down

Pin 'em
So lost in the moments
When you're in 'em
It's the rage that took over
It controls you both
So they say it's best
To go your separate ways
Guess that they don't know ya
Cause today
That was yesterday
Yesterday is over
It's a different day
Sound like broken records
Playin' over
But you promised her
Next time you'll show restraint
You don't get another chance
Life is no Nintendo game
But you lied again
Now you get to watch her leave
Out the window
Guess that's why they call it window pane

Just gonna stand there
And watch me burn
But that's alright
Because I like
The way it hurts
Just gonna stand there
And hear me cry
But that's alright
Because I love
The way you lie
I love the way you lie
I love the way you lie

Now I know we said things
Did things
That we didn't mean
And we fall back
Into the same patterns
Same routine
But your temper's just as bad
As mine is
You're the same as me
But when it comes to love
You're just as blinded
Baby please come back
It wasn't you
Baby it was me
Maybe our relationship
Isn't as crazy as it seems
Maybe that's what happens
When a tornado meets a volcano
All I know is
I love you too much
To walk away though
Come inside
Pick up your bags off the sidewalk
Don't you hear sincerity
In my voice when I talk
Told you this is my fault
Look me in the eyeball
Next time I'm pissed
I'll aim my fist
At the dry wall
Next time
There will be no next time
I apologize
Even though I know it's lies
I'm tired of the games
I just want her back
I know I'm a liar
If she ever tries to fucking leave again
I'mma tie her to the bed
And set the house on fire

Just gonna stand there
And watch me burn
But that's alright
Because I like
The way it hurts
Just gonna stand there
And hear me cry
But that's alright
Because I love
The way you lie
I love the way you lie
I love the way you lie

Korn "Coming Undone"

This is a great song from Korn



Keep holdin' on when
My brain's tickin' like a bomb
Guess the black thoughts have
Come again to get me
Sweet bitter words
Unlike nothing I have heard
Sing along mocking bird
You don't affect me

That's right
Deliverance of my heart
Please strike
Be deliberate

Wait
I'm coming undone
Irate
I'm coming undone
Too late
I'm coming undone
What looks so strong so delicate
Wait
I'm starting to suffocate
And soon I anticipate
I'm coming undone
What looks so strong so delicate

Choke, choke again
I thought, my demons were my friends
Getting me in the end
They're out to get me
Since I was young
I've tasted sorrow on my tongue
And the sweet sugar gun
Does not protect me

That's right
Trigger between my eyes
Please strike
Make it quick now

Wait
I'm coming undone
Irate
I'm coming undone
Too late
I'm coming undone
What looks so strong so delicate
Wait
I'm starting to suffocate
And soon I anticipate
I'm coming undone
What looks so strong so delicate

I'm
Trying to hold it together
Head is lighter than a feather
Looks like I'm not getting better
Not getting better

Wait
I'm coming undone
Irate
I'm coming undone
Too late
I'm coming undone
What looks so strong so delicate
Wait
I'm starting to suffocate
And soon I anticipate
I'm coming undone
What looks so strong so delicate.

Joe Cocker "A Little Help From My Friends"

Here is another old favorite for a Monday morning.



What would you do if I sang out of tune,
Would you stand up and walk out on me?
Lend me your ears and I'll sing you a song
And I'll try not to sing out of key.

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends
Mm, I get high with a little help from my friends
Mm, gonna try with a little help from my friends

What do I do when my love is away
(Does it worry you to be alone?)
How do I feel by the end of the day,
(Are you sad because you're on your own?)

No, I get by with a little help from my friends
Mm, I get high with a little help from my friends
Mm, gonna try with a little help from my friends

Do you need anybody
I need somebody to love
Could it be anybody
I want somebody to love.

Would you believe in a love at first sight
Yes, I'm certain that it happens all the time
What do you see when you turn out the light
I can't tell you but I know it's mine,

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends
Mm, I get high with a little help from my friends
Mm, gonna try with a little help from my friends

Do you need anybody
I just need someone to love
Could it be anybody
I want somebody to love.

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends
with a little help from my friends.

The Guess Who "No Time"

Going back for an oldie today for you.

Cypress Hill "(Rock) Superstar"

I think I should have been a rock superstar.

Dropkick Murphys "State of Massachusetts"

You just have to love the sound of these guys, I do. Mix some traditional Irish music with some heavy rock and hard ass vocals, and you've got Boston's own Dropkick Murphys.



She had excuses and she chose to use them
She was the victim of unspeakable abuses
Her husband was violent malicious and distant
Her kids now belong to the state of Massachusetts

They've been taken away! Hey!
They've been taken away!

Billy was a bright one Tommy's off his head
Mother loved them both the same at least that's what she said
I don't predict the future I don't care about the past
Send them both to DSS now you've had your chance

The poison stole your babies
The judges took your rights
You can have your children or the night

I suppose you've been a victim I suspect you may have lied
Have you lost all ambition won't you give this thing a try
If you can't and you fail you won't be the only loser
These kids don't stand a chance with you in their future

They've been taken away! Hey!
They've been taken away!

Billy was a bright one Tommy's off his head
Mother loved them both the same at least that's what she said
I don't predict the future I don't care about the past
Send them both to DSS now you've had your chance

The poison stole your babies
The judges took your rights
You can have your children or the night

The poison stole your babies
The judges took your rights
You can have your children or the night

Billy was a bright one Tommy's off his head
Mother loved them both the same at least that's what she said
I don't predict the future I don't care about the past
Send them both to DSS now you've had your chance

The poison stole your babies
The judges took your rights
You can have your children or the night

Black Label Society

A guy that came out from Ozzy's shadow to do quite well on his own. As you can hear though, Ozzy is always a strong supporter of Zak's.

Seether "County Song"

This is a brand new one from Seether, its been out for about a week or two now. Its a bit different from the norm for them, but I like it. What do you think?

John Fogerty "The Old Man Down The Road"

Heres another old favorite of mine, just a great guitar riff and of course, John's vocals.

Jon Bon Jovi "Blaze Of Glory"

Theres something about this song that I really like.

Molly Hatchet "Flirting With Disaster"

This one has been in my head for some reason,

Disturbed "Stupify"

I'm in the mood for some of this.



Here's the official video if your interested:

"And don't deny me
No baby now, don't deny me
And darlin' don't be afraid..."

Rush "Closer to the Heart"

A little Rush for a Thursday.



And the men who hold high places
Must be the ones who start
To mould a new reality
Closer to the Heart
Closer to the Heart

The Blacksmith and the Artist
Reflect it in their art
Forge their creativity
Closer to the Heart
Yeah, it's closer to the Heart

Philosophers and Ploughmen
Each must know his part
To sow a new mentality
Closer to the Heart
Yeah, it's closer to the Heart

You can be the Captain and
I will draw the Chart
Sailing into destiny
Closer to the Heart

Closer to the Heart x7

Closer to your heart.

Static X "Push It"

Something heavy for a hump day.

This is the official video, which they will not allow embedded.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ps0MfBG5-Uo

Heres a live one.


Corrosive tainted by my sin,
I'm spilling blood and I cant,
Hardly contain it,
Corrosive hallowing the hand,
Stiffened I eat away,
Eat, Eat into the surface.

Yeah, you push it! (x6)

Explosive more violent more violent,
All consuming throbbing,
Straight to the circle,
Explosive move on reaction,
I slow it down, I slow it...

Down, down, down, down, down!

Yeah, you push it! (x6)

I see it,
I need it, (x8)

My mind is corrosive I trip,
on corrosive I freak,
See through me,
My eyes are explosive,
I feed on it,
Black out,
Crucify me.

Yeah, you push it! (x12)

Peter Gabriel "Shock The Monkey"

Sometimes you just gotta Shock The Monkey...
